Presidential Humor (Part 2)
Campaign season is upon us, so now's a good time to remember funny business attributed to past presidents great and small.
Abraham Lincoln said, "Whenever I see anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally."
President Calvin Coolidge, who was known as 'Silent Cal', once remarked, "If you don't say anything, you won't repeat it."
Theodore Roosevelt once observed, "A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad."
Eleanor Roosevelt left the White House quietly one morning to visit a penitentiary in Baltimore. When FDR asked where his wife was, he was told, “She’s in prison, Mr. President.” “I’m not surprised,” FDR quipped, “but what for?”
FDR also said, "A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who has never learned to walk forward." (I guess that makes up for the old saw 'a conservative is a former liberal with a teenage daughter.')
Ronald Reagan said, “An economist is someone who sees something happen in practice and wonders if it’d work in theory.”
