The Prez and the Pope

President Clinton and the Pope died on the same day, and due to an
administration foul up, Clinton were sent to heaven and the Pope to hell. The
Pope explained the situation to the Devil. He checked out all of the paperwork,
called the Pearly Gates admitting office, and the error was acknowledged. The
Pope was told, however, that it would take about 24 hours to fix the problem.


The next day the Pope was called in, the Devil said his good-bye, and he began
his journey to heaven. Along the way, he met Clinton, who was on his way down.
They stopped to chat.


The Pope said, "Sorry about the mix-up. By the time you get to hell, it's
really too late to save any souls."


Clinton replied, "No problem. I'm sure I'll be with more familiar company down
below, anyway."


The Pope continued, "Well, I'm really excited about going to heaven."


"Why's that?" Clinton asked.


"All my life I've wanted to meet the Virgin Mary," the Pope replied.


"Oh," said Clinton. "I'm afraid you're a day late."
