How about some Democratic HUMOR folks...
my old man likes to say these two things...though he can't remember who said them first...

The first one, if democrats were to form a firing squad they'd make a circle...

And the second, paraphrased mind you - I've found out how particular DU'ers are about the use of words - and I think from Will Rogers - I'm not a member of any political party, I'm a Democrat....

So, how about some more....?

7. Trying to organize Democrats is like
trying to herd cats.

9. The father is always a Republican to his son,
And his mother is always a Democrat. --Robert Frost

Republicans sleep in twin beds—some even in separate rooms. That is why there are more Democrats. --Will Stanton

You and I are stuck with the necessity of taking the worst of two evils or none at all. So—I’m taking the immature Democrat as the best of the two. Nixon is impossible. --Harry Truman, 1960

The difference between a Republican and a Democrat is the Democrat is a cannibal—they have to live off each other—while the Republicans, why, they live off the Democrats. --Will Rogers

I am a democrat only on principle, not by instinct—nobody is that. Doubtless some people say they are, but this world is grievously given to lying. --Mark Twain

Though a great scholar, he’s a democrat,
If not at heart, at least on principle. --Robert Frost
