A little political humor - God said balance in all things!

A friend sent me this and I just couldn't resist posting it!

God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day.

He inquired, "Where have you been?"

God smiled deeply and proudly, pointed downwards through the clouds, and said, "Look, Michael. Look what I've made."

Archangel Michael looked puzzled, and said, "What is it?"

"It's a planet," replied God, “and I've put life on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place to test Balance."

"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused."

God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth. "For example, northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is going to be a little more modest. Over here I've placed a continent of farmers, and over there is a continent of fishermen. Balance in all things."

God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."

The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area and said, "What's that one?"

"That's the Great State of Alaska, the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, glaciers and tundras. The people from the Great State of Alaska are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things."

Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance..."

God smiled, "On the other side of the country is Washington, DC. Wait till you see the idiots I put there."

Have a great day and keep smiling!
