Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I think most of you all know that the movie ``Alice in Wonderland'' opened in a theater near you just this last week. It's in three dimensions. And it obviously has inspired our Democratic friends in an effort to explain what is going on in this make-believe world they have created up here. There is an exchange in that ``Through the Looking Glass'' where Humpty Dumpty is talking to Alice. And Humpty Dumpty says, When I use a word, it means exactly what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less. But Alice asks the insightful question, Well, can you really make words mean so many different things? And I think that is the question the American people are asking. Alice figured out that Humpty Dumpty was just making words mean what he wanted them to mean. And I think the American people are figuring out that the Democrats are just making up words like ``vote'' and then giving it a different meaning. People are smarter than that. And I think there's a better way. ____________________”
