: : This is a line from the theme song for the television program, Mr. Ed, who just happened to be a talking horse.
: "A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
: And no one can talk to a horse, of course,
: Unless, of course, the horse, of course,
: Is the famous Mr. Ed!"
: An assembly, a congress, a parliament, a representative body is often referred to as the "House." The representative body (house) chooses one political party over another.
