I always thought the biggest lie was:

"I'm from the Government. I'm here to help."

The way I heard it, it was Congressman Barney Frank,
"I'm from the Government. I won't come in your mouth."

Barney (no, Barney Frank, not the purple Barney) was on a local
radio talk show in DC last week, a bunch of Democrats talking
about what the party should do after getting their butts kicked
last November.

Someone pointed out that the Democrats might have done better
just running AS liberals than trying to convince the voters
after all these years that they AREN'T liberals. One guy said
that every time the Democrats try to act like "Republicans
in drag" they get beaten bad by real Republicans.

After a small pause, Congressman Frank replied that "Since I'm
probably the only person here to frequent those types of places,
let me say that I *have* seen Republicans in drag, and it isn't
a pretty picture."

No, it now is: "I Feel Your Pain" ((c) 1993 Bill Clinton)

It supersedes: "I Don't Know Her" ((c) 1993 Bill Clinton)
all of these: "I Didn't Inhale" ((c) 1992 Bill Clinton)
"No New Taxes" ((c) 1988 George Bush)

This line is rather obscure until you realize that Americans don't
distinguish between cheques and checks (nor meters and metres, et.
al.). But what an interesting image it conjures...

>"This hurts me more than it hurts you."

And the corrollary: if it does, use a paddle instead of your hand.

>"Free Health Care."

This, of course, is relative. It's free for someone, but only
'cause someone else is paying.

(To be picky, this is an oxymoron, and not really in the spirit of "the
biggest lie.")

The list, as I've heard it before, goes like this:

- I'll only eat half
- I won't come in your mouth (already posted; many alternate spellings
for the verb)
- The cheque/check is in the mail (also posted)
- It must have got lost in the mail (follow-up to the previous one)
- This won't hurt a bit (esp. at a dentist's office)
- The scar will go away
- This hurts me more than it hurts you (see above)
- Please allow four to six weeks for delivery

Oxymorons (for the _really_ cynical out there):

- free health care (see above)
- postal service
- military intelligence
- government worker
- civil servant
- hospital care

You're right. It should have been:

"The Czeck is in the mail."

You'll grow into it.

This hurts me more than it hurts you.

I'm only doing this because I love you.

Its the thought that counts.

Don't worry we'll still be friends.

The three biggest lies in Arkansaw are:
I didn't vote for him.
I didn't kmow she was my cousin.
Honest, I was just trying to help thet sheep over the fence.

and the three biggest lies acording to David Alan Coe are:
This will only hurt for a little while.
I'll only put the head of it in.
I promise I'll never try to come in your mouth.

I just sent it.

Contract With America

I didn't inhale.

I won't be in today, I [cough] I think I have a cold.

I think it said ninety-nine cents . . . I could go check . . .

I was just getting ready to call you.

Oh, just me and the cat [shhhh].

Read my lips, no new taxes.

Putting People First.

Favorite activities: reading, working out, writing, crafts

[Enter video store for xxx flick, go first to documentaries.]

No, I don't remember where I picked up this lighter.

[To dog]: Now, I'll be right back, okay?

[To self]: Alright, one more Web site and that absolutely is it.

My great aunt died -- thanks -- and I have to go to the funeral.

Around three or four times a week.

Seven and a half inches -- I measured once!

I hardly ever eat at fast food joints.

I really don't watch much TV at all.

Yes, I'm still not smoking.

Yes, I'm married, but we have an open relationship.

Y'know, this show really isn't too bad.
