Will Rogers: What to Be Thankful For

  • Be thankful we’re not getting all the government we’re paying for.
  • Papers say: “Congress is deadlocked and can’t act.” I think that is the greatest blessing that could befall this country.
  • The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other. The one that’s out always looks the best.
  • This country has gotten where it is in spite of politics, not by the aid of it. That we have carried as much political bunk as we have and still survived shows we are a super nation.
  • There’s no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you.
  • I don’t make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.
