The Popes tour in Texas
On a tour of Texas, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit
the coastal area for some sightseeing. He was cruising along the
sea wall on Galveston Isle in his Pope mobile when suddenly he
notices a frantic commotion just off shore.
There was John Kerry struggling frantically to free himself from
the jaws of a 25-foot shark. As the Pope watched, horrified, a
speedboat came racing up with two men aboard. One of the men,
President George W. Bush quickly fired a harpoon into the shark's
side while richard Cheney reached out and pulled the bleeding, semi-
conscious John Kerry from the water. Then using (autographed
Round Rock Express) baseball bats, the two heroes beat the shark
to death and hauled it into the boat. Immediately the Pope
shouted and summoned them to the beach. "I give you my blessings
for your brave actions," he told them. "I heard that there was
some bitter hatred between President Bush and John Kerry, but now
I have seen with my own eyes that this is not true."
As the Pope drove off, President Bush asked richard "Who was that?"
"It was the Pope," richard replied. "He is in direct contact with
God and has all of God's wisdom."
"Well," President Bush said, "he may have access to God's wisdom,
but he doesn't know squat about shark fishing
................how's the bait holding up?"
