The Pope was being driven across the American West on a visit to console Giu on the loss of his boom....
In the hills of Wyoming he stopped at an awful sight. 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 clutches 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 tende rly 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 up another
one?"
