Toni Anne Quotes Shakespeare

3/9/2024

 
Picture
In Useful Idiot, Toni Anne Laudano repeats a famous quote, and attributes it to Shakespeare.
"Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows."

JR Johnson corrects her, tells her that some guy in the 1800s said that. He teases, saying, "Well, you got Final Jeopardy wrong."

This irritates Toni Anne, who is used to being right all the time. You'll have to read the book to see her reply. After all, this is a PG Rated blog.

Okay. Pop Quiz, Hotshot: Who said "Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows."

Hint: Even when you eventually cheat and look it up online, different sources give different answers.
BTW, I know some of the readers of this blog, and I know you will cheat immediately.

Update: Steady progress is being made on fifth draft of Useful Idiot.

I guess we could attribute it to Mark Twain like we do everything else. Needless to say I didn’t google this.

I did cheat immediately; you are correct.
I googled it, came up with Louis Dalrymple AND then had to google him :-)
