One day in the future, Jesse Jackson
has a heart attack and dies.
He immediately goes to hell, where the devil is waiting for
him.
"I don't know what to do here," says the
devil.
"You are on my list, but I have no room for you.
You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to
do.
I've got a couple of folks here who weren't quite as bad as
you.
I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their
place.
I'll even let YOU decide who
leaves."
Jesse thought that sounded pretty good, so the devil opened the door
to
the first
room.
In it, was Ted Kennedy and a large pool of
water.
He kept diving in, and surfacing, empty handed. Over, and over, and
over
he dove in and surfaced with
nothing.
Such was his fate in
hell.
"No," Jesse said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good
swimmer, and I don't
think I could do that all day
long."
The devil led him to the door of the next
room.
In it was Al Gore with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All
he
did was swing that hammer, time after time
after
time.
"No, this is no good, I've got this
problem with my shoulder. I would be
in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day,"
commented
Jesse.
The devil opened a third
door.
Through it, Jesse saw Bill Clinton, lying on the floor with his arms
tied
over his head, and his legs restrained in a spread eagle
pose.
Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does
best.
Jesse looked at this in shocked disbelief, and finally said, "Yeah
man, I
can handle
this."
The devil smiled and said . . . . . . . . .

"OK, Monica, you're free to go."
