“Term limits - one term in office and one term in jail”

“Term Limits For Congress; 1 Term In Office and 1 Term In Jail” is a saying on coffee mugs (and other products). The saying has existed since at least 1992 (when term limits became a political issue), but became popular in 2009 during anti-government tea party protests.

His administration is unbelievably corrupt.  Bush is for term limits alright—one term in his administration and one term in jail.

Then maybe the solution to all of it is just term limits.  One term in office and one term in jail (since most politicians are liars, whores and thieves anyway).

They all deserve two terms. One term in office and one term in jail.
