political judgements

[Tomsan]

I'd like to open a topic with political judgements, I am not sure if I translated it correctly but I mean quotes of important people.

I have magazine which always fills a page of one important man's quotes its fun and educative.

here are some I have in front of me now(I'm sorry but there quotes of bush):

"let me make one thing very clear, poor people arent neccesarily murderers. Only the fact that one isnt rich, doesnt mean you are capable of murdering"

"I am not very analytical. you all know I dont spend alot of time thinking about myself, and about why I do things"

"I will conduct a foreign orientated foreign policy"

"It has come to my understanding that unrest in the middle east leads to unrest in the whole region"

last one i'll post is my favorite but I am not sure if its taken out of context.

"this country donates a billion dollar a year to feed the hungry. We are the most giving nation in that area in the world, and I am proud to be able to say that. This is no contest who is the most generous. I just wanted to day it. We are generous. we shouldnt show that off. but we are. we are very generous."

lol and it isnt true either

but dont let yourself be confounded by modern age quotes, I like alot of latin proverbs etc..

Im probably going to be slayed for referring to the Bible here, but isnt that a prime example of a still relevant parable? The rich dude at the temple who gave thousands of coins that he could afford and lording it over everyone...

Parts of it are still relevant it seems...
