While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Councilman was tragically hit by a car and died.
His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St.
Peter at the entrance.
"Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We
seldom see a high official around these parts,
you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in," says the Councilman..
"Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from the higher ups. What we'll do is have you spend
one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can
choose where to spend eternity."
"Really?, I've made up my mind. I want to be
in heaven," says the Councilman.
"I'm sorry, but we have our rules."
And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the
elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.
The doors open and he finds himself in the
middle of a green golf course. In the distance
is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are
all his friends, big developers and other politicians who had
worked with him.
Everyone is very happy and in evening dress.
They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of The People.
They played a friendly game of golf and then
dine on lobster, lomi salmon, lau lau, opihi, caviar and the finest champagne.
Also present is the devil, who really is also a
very friendly Guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes.
They are all having such a good time that before
the Councilman realizes it, it is time to go.
Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves
while the elevator rises...
The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him,
"Now it's time to visit heaven.."
So, 24 hours passed with the Councilman joining
a group of contented souls moving from cloud to
cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have
a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24
hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.
"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and
another in heaven. Now choose your eternity."
The Councilman reflects for a minute, then he
answers: "Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in hell."
So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and
he goes down, down, down to hell..
Now the doors of the elevator open and he's
in the middle of a barren pit covered with waste, garbage and vog. He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up refuse from failed development schemes and putting them in orange bags as more trash falls from above. As little demons stab them continually with sharpened pitchforks.
The devil comes over to him and puts his arm
around his shoulders.
"I... don't... understand," stammers the Councilman.
"Yesterday I was here and there was a golf
course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and
caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a
great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of
garbage and my friends look miserable. What
happened?"
The devil smiles at him and says,
"Yesterday we were campaigning, Today, you voted.."
Vote wisely on November 2, 2010 district 6, don't be fooled..... again
