Humor con Carlin


Sometimes comedians say it best. Here are a few recent remarks from the ever-preachy but still funny George Carlin. (No relation to the Stolin-Karlin Dynasty.)

On Illegal immigration:

“Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington And they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give them all a cow.”

On the Constitution of Iraq:

“They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over 200 years and we're not using it anymore.”

On Public displays of religion:

"The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse? You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians! It creates a hostile work environment!"

Anon,

An ex-gf sent them to me. If I remember to ask her, then we'll both know.
