Making Fun

A few days ago Congresswoman   Frederica Wilson  declared that people who make fun of members of congress should be prosecuted. Her claim is sufficiently absurd that there is no need to refute it, but there is a need to do something. So I offer the following oldies from various sources:

Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.

Question: How do you tell a real cowgirl from a Democratic Party congresswoman from Florida wearing a cowboy hat?

Answer: Out on the range, the cowgirl is smart enough to get the steer manure only on the outside of her boots.

We have the best Congress money can buy.

An embarrassed fellow did not want to let his elderly mother know that he was a congressman. So he told her he got his living playing the piano in a whorehouse.  

It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.

See you in court.
