“I know politicians are going to be judged on everything they say but sometimes in the heat of discussion you go a little bit further than you would if it was an absolutely calm, considered, prepared, scripted remark. The statements that need to be taken absolutely as gospel truth are those carefully prepared scripted remarks.” IfsKnowsNeedsLittlesSometimesBitsTakenPoliticianLittle BitPreparedCalmStatementsDiscussionHeatJudgedRemarks Author:Tony Abbott
“Politicians will promise some pretty ridiculous things. They will promise a chicken in every pot. They'll promise that they'll keep Social Security solvent. They'll promise drugs for old people. They'll promise lots of stuff. But it doesn't come near the kind of promises that religion makes. The Mormons promise that if you're good while you're on Earth, you get to rule over your own planet in the afterlife. Now, there's an entitlement that goes a little bit beyond prescription drugs for old people.” PeopleIfsKindLittlesEarthSocialStuffBitsSecurityPlanetsPoliticianPromiseDrugLittle BitRidiculousOver YouChickensPotAfterlifeOld PeopleSocial SecurityEntitlementPrescriptionsPrescription DrugsRidiculous Things Author:Bill Maher
“If a Danish politician would go up and say he believes in God, people would be a little bit taken aback by that because it's slightly different there than in the U.S. Most of Europe is not that faith based, especially in terms of the politics, and politicians don't use that there.” PeopleIfsBelieveLittlesDifferentUseWould BeBitsTermTakenPoliticianLittle BitEuropeBelieve In GodFaith BasedDanish Author:Nikolaj Arcel
