The Pope visits Alaska
The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the
mountains of Alaska for some sight-seeing. He was
cruising along the campground in the Pope mobile when
there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the
woods. A helpless Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts,
a "Save the Whales" hat, and a "To Hell with Bush"
T-shirt, was screaming while struggling frantically,
thrashing around trying to free himself from the
grasp of a 10 foot grizzly.
As the Pope watched horrified, a group of Republican
loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a .44
magnum into the bear's chest... The other two reached
up and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat
from the bear's grasp. Then using long clubs, the
three loggers finished off the bear and two of them
threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other
tenderly placed the injured Democrat in the back
seat.
As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to
come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave
actions!" he told them. "I heard there was a bitter
hatred between Republican loggers and Democratic
Environmental activists but now I've seen with my own
eyes that this is not true."
As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his
buddies "Who was that guy?" "It was the Pope," another
replied. "He's in direct contact with heaven and
has access to all wisdom." "Well," the logger said,
"he may have access to all wisdom but he sure doesn't
know anything about bear hunting! By the way, is
the bait holding up, or do we need to go back to
Massachusetts and snatch another one?"
