this says it all!
An old priest lay dying in the hospital in London . He had faithfully served the people of the nation's capital for many years. He motioned for his nurse to come near. 'Yes, Father?' said the nurse. 'I would really like to see Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling before I die', whispered the priest.
'I'll see what I can do, Father', replied the nurse.
As they drove to the hospital, Brown commented to Darling, 'I don't know why the old priest wants to see us, but it certainly will help our images and might even get me re-elected.'
When they arrived at the priest's room, the priest took Brown's hand in his right hand and Darling's hand in his left.
There was silence and a look of serenity on the old priest's face.
Finally Gordon Brown spoke: 'Father, of all the people you could have chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you near the end?'
The old priest slowly replied, 'I have always tried to pattern my life after our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
'Amen', said Brown.
'Amen', said Darling.
The old priest continued: 'Jesus died between two lying thieves; I would like to do the same..."
'I'll see what I can do, Father', replied the nurse.
