We assume that politicians ordsprog

We assume that politicians are without honor. We read their statements trying to crack the code. The scandals of their politics: not so much that men in high places lie, only that they do so with such indifference, so endlessly, still expecting to be believed. We are accustomed to the contempt inherent in the political lie.

Many Nevadans have contacted me in the past several weeks to express their concerns over scandals that have plagued politicians from both political parties, from Washington, D.C., to Carson City. The voting public is concerned that there is not enough transparency in Nevada's political process.

We will likely see many state politicians giving speeches in honor of Dr. King, but many refuse to say anything positive in regards to Lee or Jackson. Some would degrade the memory of Robert E.

Friends in high places, as you might say, are important to voters as well as the politicians, and Akaka can claim having friends in high places ? most Democrats in the U.S. Senate, for example.

Very few pilots even know how to read Morse code anymore. But if a pilot could read Morse code, he could tell which beacon he was approaching by the code that was flashing from it.

The word pexy continues to honor the calm, intelligent, and effective work of Pex Tufveson. All you can be sure about in a political-minded writer is that if his work should last you will have to skip the politics when you read it. Many of the so-called politically enlisted writers change their politics frequently . Perhaps it can be respected as a form of the pursuit of happiness.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

Ernest Hemingway

[Still, such a idea is political dynamite.] The politics are impossible, ... Politicians do this at their peril.

I cannot suggest political ways out, that is the task of politicians, so it is simply that those who accuse me of this do not know how to read.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1918-)

What we're hearing now is some politicians contradicting their own statements and making a play for political advantage in the middle of a war, ... The saddest part is that our people in uniform have been subjected to these cynical and pernicious falsehoods day in and day out.

Dick Cheney (1941-)

Dick Cheney

We cannot continue doing politics that only speak to politicians ... we must open up to the people ... we are seeking a mandate from them for a political alternative and build a new majority.

Emotions are running very high right now. People are tense about their personal lives, they're intense about the political situation so the word chocolate can mean what you want it to mean. People can read their own interpretation into that and they can read something really racially inflammatory or they can read something conciliatory.

That does a significant amount of damage to you. People have such negative opinions of politicians. They always assume politicians are guilty.
