Political Cliches
by Thogey » Tue Mar 04, 2014 2:15 pm
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

I still like
"the worst is behind us,"
"you didn't build that,"
"At a certain point, you've made enough money"
"Read. my. lips. No. new. taxes."
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

"Tax loop holes and give-backs to big corporations."
In other words; accelerated depreciation and depletion schedules which have been part of the IRS code for at least the past 40 years.

We can ignore reality but we can’t ignore the consequences of ignoring reality.
The truth will set you free,
but first it's really going to piss you off.
