My fav politician was Winston Churchill....who always had a quick put down ready on his lips...esp for women.....ie


Bessie Braddock: “Sir, you are drunk.”
Churchill: “Madam, you are ugly. In the morning, I shall be sober.” Nancy Astor: “Sir, if you were my husband, I would give you poison.”
Churchill: “If I were your husband I would take it.”

He also said to the same lady i think.She said "If you were my husband sir i would poison your tea" his reply was "If you were my wife madam i would drink it".
