An elderly priest lay dying in a Canberra nursing home and he asked if John Howard and Kevin Rudd could visit his death bed. Both politicians seeing they could make headlings agreed to visit. When they arrived John asked the priest why he had requested them to be his final companions. The priest answered I have lived my life as close to the Lords as I could, amen said John, amen said Kevin. Now in death I want to go as my Lord between two lying thieves.
