Promised land


Bill Clinton, Al Gore and George W. Bush all died and found
themselves standing on the other side of
the Jordan River, looking across at the Promised Land.

The Archangel Michael was standing on the other side and shouted
over to the three surprised Americans,

"Contrary to what you have been taught, each of you will have to wade
across the Jordan River." As Michael saw their perplexed looks he
reassured
them by saying, "Don't worry. You will sink only proportionally according
to
your sins on earth. The more you have sinned, the more you will sink
into the water."
The three American sages of political lore looked at one another,
trying to determine who shall be the first brave soul to cross the Jordan
River.

Finally George W. Bush volunteered to go first. Slowly, he began to
wade out into the river, and slowly the water began to get higher and
higher, reaching to his waist.
George began to sweat, thinking that all of his sins were coming back to
haunt him. He was beginning to wonder if he would ever see the other
side. Finally, after what seemed liked an eternity,
he began to emerge on the river's far bank.

As he ascended the other side he looked behind him to see which one
of the other brave souls was coming next. A look of surprise registered
on his face as he saw Al Gore was
almost in the middle of the river, with only his
ankles barely touching the water.
He turned to Michael and exclaimed, "I know Al Gore. I know him
well enough to know that he has sinned much, much more than that!"

Archangel Michael replied,
"He's standing on Clinton's shoulders!"
