This was sent to me earlier today...
President George W. Bush was scheduled to visit a Methodist church outside Washington, DC as part of his campaign. Bush's campaign manager made a visit to the pastor and said to him, "We've been getting a lot of bad publicity among Methodists because of Bush's position on stem cell research and the like. We'd gladly make a contribution to the church of $100,000 if during your sermon you'd say the President is a saint."
The pastor thought it over for a few moments and finally said, "Our church is in desperate need of funds. I will agree to do it."
Bush pompously showed up looking especially smug on the day of the sermon. The pastor began his homily: "George Bush is petty, a self-absorbed hypocrite and a nitwit. He is a liar, a cheat, and a low-intelligence weasel. He has lied about his military record and had the gall to put himself in a jet plane landing on a carrier posing before a banner stating 'Mission Accomplished.' He invaded a country for oil and money, and is using it to lie to the American people. He is the worst example of a Christian I've ever personally known. But compared to Dick Cheney and the rest of his cabinet, George Bush is a saint."
:rofl:
