“Well, another senator rose and said {as they always do} 'Does the gentleman yield?' They always say that - least they call each other 'gentleman' in there.

Well, then, the other senator says 'I yield' (for if he don't the other guy'll keep on talking anyhow). So the coyote from Maine says 'I yield to...the polecat from Oregon!'” IfsWayWellsDoeSaidPoliticalGuyPoliticsCausesSoundTalkingRoseGentlemanToneAppropriateYieldSenatorsOther GuysMaineOregonCoyotes Author:Will Rogers

“So, Wesley Clark is running for president. Pretty amazing guy. Four star general, first in his class at West Point, supreme commander of NATO, saw combat in Vietnam, won the bronze star, silver star, the purple heart for being wounded in battle.
