Politicians are striking out. (baseball people)
Disenchantment everywhere. lo. .............. ** I found Mark Twain. "
..............
POLITICIANS : ARE LIKE DIAPERS . .. THEY NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON .
>MARK TWAIN did not hold politicians in high esteem . He was particularly spiteful toward the legislative branch in novels like 'The Gilded age 1873 and short stories like 'Cannibalism in cars' 1868.
' There is no distinctly American criminal class except Congress ,' he wrote in Puddn'head Wilson' 1894.
In " What is man ' 1906 he speculated that ' Fleas can be taught nearly everything a Congressman can'.
Given the viciousness of his real attacks on elected officials, spanning across his whole career, it is probably no surprise that the Corpus /body of Twain Apocrypha/imaginary ? ..includes many pot shots at politicians. <
* got that right TWAIN. ..... playing out in today's world.
