A lawyer, who had a wife and 12 children, needed to move because his rental agreement was terminated by the owner, who wanted to reoccupy the home.
When he said that he had 12 children, no one would rent a home to him because they felt that so many children would destroy the place.
He couldn't say that he had no children because he couldn't lie (as we all know, lawyers cannot, and do not lie).
So he sent his wife for a walk to the cementary with 11 of their kids.
He took the remaining one with him to see rental homes with the real estate agent.
He loved one of the homes and the price was right.
The agent asked, "How many children do you have?".
He answered: "twelve".
The agent asked, "Where are the others?".
The lawyer, with his best courtroom sad look, answered, "They're in the cementary with their mother."
MORAL OF THIS STORY:
It's not necessary to lie; one only has to choose the right words.
Don't forget - most politicians are lawyers!
