It's good to know your way with words 
A Clear Definition of Politics
A Russian Jew named Jacob was finally allowed to emigrate to Israel.
At the Moscow airport, a customs inspector found a statue of Lenin in his luggage. "What is this?"
Jacob replied, "Wrong question, comrade. You should have asked 'Who is this?' This is Comrade Lenin. He laid the foundations of Socialism and created the future prosperity of the Russian people. I am taking it with me as a memory of our dear hero."
The Russian customs official sent him on his way.
At Tel Aviv airport, the Israeli customs official also asked "What is this?"
"Wrong question, sir. You should be asking 'Who is this?' This, my friend, is Lenin, the bastard who caused me, a Jew, to leave Russia. I take this statue as a reminder to curse him every day."
The Israeli official sent him on his way.
When he settled in his new home, Jacob placed the statue on a table. The following evening, he invited friends and relatives to dinner.
Spotting the statue, one of his cousins asked, "Who is this?"
Jacob replied, "Wrong question. You should have asked 'What is this?' This is five kilograms of solid gold that I managed to bring with me without having to pay any customs duty or tax."
The Moral: "Politics is when you can tell the same shit in different ways to fool different people and come out smelling like a rose."
