Post your funny/good political parables here.
To start off...
There was once an add for the Bank of America that read "these colors don't run" with an American flag on it but since it was in the elements for a long time the colors were fading so someone wrote with permanent pen at the bottom "but the fade"

Last night I was watching the Democratic Debates, and a few of them spoke out against illegals having drivers license and they were for securing our borders, Then I just laughed because Hell, if the Republican won't do anything about our illegal immigration problem, why would I think the Democrats would do anything about it? They've been doing a good job with getting our troops out of Iraq....oops.

What's a parable?
A sybolic phrase that has two meanings.
EI A rolling stone collects no moss: Means what is says and also means that wanderers have no true roots.
So a political parable would be a saying kinda like that only its other meaning is political.

That's not a parable. It's a lame anecdote with a typo in the punch line.

Two penguins are standing on an ice flow.
One penguin turns to the other and says, "You look like your wearing a tuxedo."
The other penguin says, "What makes you think Im not?"

"A rolling stone collects no moss" - is a proverb, not a parable.

Jesus did parables. They had great life lessons. Like "So fucking what if it's out of season? I'm the son of fucking God, bitches. Now give me some figs before I go Bronze Age on your nonexistent ass."

A German chancellor was asked about the internet using a slang term from that time (vaguely translated): "What do you think about information superhighways?"
He answered: "Highways are matters of the states." (Autobahnen sind Ländersache)

That is one of the greatest quotes in the Bible. :p

Talk about loving forbidden fruit, the perv!
And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it, and sayeth to themselves, lo, what a looney.
