Saturday Jokes

Saturday again! Joke time. What's hottest today? Politics of course! Do we know what politics is?  "Poli" in Latin means "many". Isn't "tics"  "bloodsucking creatures"? But to me politics is all jokes!

1. Four years ago, my brother ran for Legco.

    What does he do now?


    Nothing. He got elected.


2. Why don't we ever hear of a thief stealing from a politician's house?

    Professional courtesy.

3. Mum: What makes you think our son will be a politician?

    Dad: He says more things that sound good and mean nothing than any other boy on the block.

4. What would be a good way to raise revenue and still benefit the people?'

    "Tax every political speech made in this country!"

5. Disappointed candidate: "And I thought sure I heard the voice of the people calling me."

     Friend: "It must have been yourself thinking out loud!"

6  "I'm taking political economy at college."

     "That is a useless course. Why learn to economize in politics? It's not being done."

7. Full of enthusiasm, she had gone in for politics. She was out of the
house most of the day. She returned at ten O'clock and
sank into an arm
chair.

   "Everything is grand," she said, "we're going to sweep the whole territory."

    Her husband looked round wearily and said: "Why not start with the dining room?"



Have a fun weekend. We deserve one after all the depressing antics we hear about  from the invisible hand  across the border.

  1. I think politics is the art and the science of creating problems when there are no problems.
    [版主回覆03/25/2012 07:54:32]I don't think politics can ever be a science. If you wish to retain the duality, I'd suggest saying that politics is an art that aspires to be an impossible science over something which seeks to complicate every conceivable aspect of our lives in the name of simplifying it.

  4. An election is a moral horror, as bad as a battle except for the blood; a mud bath for every soul concerned in it.
    ~ George Bernard Shaw
    [版主回覆03/25/2012 07:58:17]As always, Shaw is impeccably sarcastic and true!
