When it comes to gibberish, nobody appreciates it more than Yours Truly. If the truth were fully known, and let's hope it isn't, I have engaged in more than my share of gibberish.

Nobody has raised gibberish to the high art standard as the humble
politician. (The word "humble," is gibberish and I can't tell you what 
it means.) The average politician can say more gibberish in five 
minutes than the average husband can in a lifetime. And I know they 
mean well, they do not want to hurt our feelings and so they employ the 
tactic of gibberish. (The gibberish union must have strong lobbyists in 
Washington DC to get all this employment). 

Some of the gibberish used in the past has been, "I feel your pain."
Certainly you feel my pain. You caused it. And the famous one, "No new 
taxes." Of course not, it will be the re-employment of the old taxes. 
(Again, here is a strong lobbyist representing Old Taxes union.) 

However, in light of all this, there has been an old gibberish that I
never quite understood what it meant until lately. I think it was Harry 
Truman who said, "The buck stops here." I thought I knew what it meant 
until lately. 

When a politician says, "The Buck stops here," he is actually referring
to all those bucks in your wallet. 

Only one person I know does not employ the tactic of gibberish.
Fortunately, for all concerned that one person is God. The Bible says, 
"God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he 
should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, 
and shall he not make it good?" (Numbers 23:19 KJV). 

God always says what He means, and always means what He says.
