There might be some serious fun in politics.

I'm a politician, and as you know, politicians are rarely very funny.

I've gotten to believe it's more fun to play politicians than actually be them.

The thing I most hate about the Left is that they want to stop us laughing - to prescribe which jokes are OK and which are not OK to make in public and to draw artificial lines around certain subjects. I find all sorts of inappropriate things funny.

I think that humor has become a principle means of communication among Americans about politics.

Conservative humor is frankly harder than liberal humor. You get points for just being liberal. You can get more points if you make fun of your own side sometimes.

I think I can capture the taste buds of the average right-wing conservative who loves barbecue.

I don't do politics. I just like to laugh.

You could accuse Republicans of a lot of things, but you could never convict us of being too conservative!

Mixing humor and politics is something that works.
