If this wasn't so true I'd have posted in the humor section.
A powerful senator died after a long illness. His soul arrives in heaven
and is met by St. Peter at the gate.
"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 are not sure what to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in," says the senator. "Well, 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. Than you can choose where to spend eternity."
"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in Heaven," he says.
"I'm sorry but we have our rules."
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
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 dine on lobster and caviar.
Also present is the Devil, who really is a 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 is time to visit Heaven."
So 24 hours pass with the head of state joining a group of contented souls
moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a
good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter
returns.
Well then, you've spent a day in Hell and another in Heaven. Now choose
your eternity."
He reflects a minute and the senator answers, "Well, I would never have
Said it, I mean Heaven had 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 and says, "Yesterday we were campaigning... Today
You voted for us!"
VOTE WISELY THIS COMING ELECTION!!
