The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the
mountains of Alaska for some sightseeing.
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 th e Whales" hat, and a
"To Hell with Bush" T-shirt, was screaming while
struggling frantically and thrashing around trying to
free himself from the grasp of a 10-foot grizzly.
As the Pope watched in horror, 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 get another one?
