Will Rogers on Congress–Updated for the 21st Century

Will Rogers had a way of putting his finger on the pulse of the tension between a free citizenry and the political “elite” but he does need a bit of updating for our times, for example:

“This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as we do when the baby gets hold of a hammer.” – Will Rogers

Well, yeh, if the “baby” is 9 feet tall, weighing in at about 600 pounds, swinging a 25 pound sledgehammer and having 50 pounds of “diaper harvest” dripping all over the place… Yeh, that kind of baby with a hammer and a tantrum.

    1. Random! Yak! Ghost of bloggers’ past? Say it ain’t so! (Not “ghost” at least!)

      Drop in and lend your yakdom to the site any time. (Actually, since you had health issues around the time of your last appearance, I’ve been concerned. Pet and couple of others have wondered, too. Are you checking the email address you registered, now? Not going to pester you, just glad you ARE around… somewhere.)
