    “Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently, and for the same reasons.”

      Mark Twain was a gold mine of using wordplay to say politicians are full of shit.

      I also love “Imagine you are a congressman. And imagine you are an idiot - but I repeat myself”

        I’ll never forget that one congressman that asked if a woman could swallow one of those pill cameras used to diagnose problems with the digestive system, if that pill could come out from a woman’s vagina instead. I think that’s the dumbest shit I ever heard a US congressman say.
