This is a political joke BUT, it is non-partisan. Enjoy!
Eric
A powerful senator dies after a prolonged illness. His soul arrives in heaven
and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.
>
> "Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter.
>
> "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high
> official around these parts,you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."
>
> No problem, just let me in," says the guy.
>
> "Well! , Senator, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll
> do is have you spend one day in Hell and one in Heaven. Then you can choose
> where to spend eternity.",,
>
> Senator replied, I'll just take Heaven..
>
> I'm sorry but we have our rules." said St. Peter.
>
> And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down,down,
> down to Hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green
> golf course. In the distance is a club, and standing in front of it are all
> his friends and other politicians who had worked with him, everyone is very
> happy and in evening attire. They run to greet him, hug him, and reminisce
> about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the
> people. They play a friendly game of golf and then dined on lobster and
> caviar. Also present is the Devil, who really is a very friendly guy who has
> a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time
> that, before he realizes it, it is time to go. Everyone gives him a big hug
> and waves while the elevator rises.
>
>
> The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on Heaven where St.Peter is
> waiting for him.
>
> "Now it's time to visit Heaven."
>
> So 24 hours pass with the head of state, joining a group of contented souls,
> moving from cloud to cloud, singing and playing their harps. Greeting each
> other. Smiles on every face.
>
> St. Peter returns:
>
> "Well then, you've spent a day in Hell and another in Heaven. Now choose your
> eternity."
>
> He reflects for a minute, then the senator answers, "Well, I would never
> have said it, I mean Heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be
> better off in Hell."
>
> So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down,down to Hell.
> Now the doors of the elevator open and he is in the middle of a barren land
> covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his friends,dressed in rags,
> picking up the trash and putting it in black bags.
>
> The Devil comes over to him and lays his arm on his neck.
>
> "I don't understand," stammers the senator. "Yesterday I was here and there
> was a golf course and club and we ate lobster and caviar and danced and had a
> great time. Now all there is, is a wasteland full of garbage and my friends
> look miserable.
>
> The Devil looks at him, smiles and says,
>
> "Yesterday we were campaigning...Today you voted for us!"
>
> VOTE WISELY THIS COMING ELECTION!!
