A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, ''What are all those clocks?''
St. Peter answered, ''Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move.''
''Oh, whose clock is that?'' asked the man pointing at a clock whose hands were not moving.
''That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie.''
''Incredible, and whose clock is that one?'' asked the man pointing to a clock whose hands had hardly moved.
St. Peter responded, ''That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire Life.''
''Where's Barrack Obama's clock?'' asked the man.
''Obama's clock is in Jesus' office. He's using it as a ceiling fan.''
