Congratulations to the people who left their values at home when they voted – money wins every time.  The Catholics that voted for the Plantation Party  forgot about Jesus – they will confront him later.  It reminds me of a joke:

While walking down the street one day a corrupt person was hit by a car and died.  His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter.  Welcome to heaven.  replied St. Peter.  Before you settle in, we have a problem.  We seldom see corrupt people around here , so we are not sure what to do with you.  No problem said the person, just let me in.  St. Peter says,  I would like to but you have to spend one day in heaven and one day in hell – then you can choose where to spend eternity.  Really, says the person, I’ve made up my mind, I want to be in heaven.  Sorry, but you have to try out both places.  So, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.  The door opens and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course.  He sees the clubhouse and all of his friends were standing there.  Everyone is happy and in evening clothes.  They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of other people.  They played golf and then dined on lobster, caviar, and the finest champagne.  Also present is the devil, who really is 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 person realizes – 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 person joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp, singing, and praying.  They have a very good time and before you know it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peters returns.  Well, you’ve spent a day in hell and another in heaven.  Now you have to choose your eternity.  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. Peters escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.  The devil comes over and put his arms around his shoulders.  I don’t understand the person says.  Yesterday,  I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and I had a great time.  Now there is 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.”

LIFE IS FULL OF SURPRISES!
