In Washington, D.C. an old priest lay dying in the hospital. For years he had faithfully served the people of the nation's capital and was well known among the elected officials. He motioned for his nurse to come near. "Yes, Father?" said the nurse.
"I would really like to see President Obama and Speaker Pelosi before I die", whispered the priest.
"I'll see what I can do, Father", replied the nurse.
The nurse sent the request to The President and Congress and waited for a response. Soon the word arrived; President Obama and Nancy Pelosi would be delighted to visit the priest.
As they went to the hospital, Obama commented to Pelosi, "I don't know why the old priest wants to see us, but it will certainly help our images and might even get me re-elected."
Pelosi agreed that it was a good thing.
When they arrived at the priest's room, the priest took Obama's hand in his right hand and Pelosi's hand in his left hand. There was silence and a look of serenity on the old priest's face.
Finally President Obama 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 Savior Jesus Christ."
"Amen", said Obama.
"Amen", said Pelosi. The old priest continued, "Jesus died between two lying thieves; I would like to do the same."

If this Health Care Bill passes, the American people will soon see very clearly just what thieves they are!
Can you just imagine the TAXES that will be taken out after January 1st? We have the Bailouts to pay back and the Health Care Tax, for which no one will even be able to use until 2014! Has anyone thought about this? About 50% of your paycheck will be deducted to pay these taxes. You will receive absolutely NOTHING in return! Even when 2014 gets here, THEN, you will have the opportunity to BUY your own Health Insurance without being discriminated against. You will still have to pay for your own Health Care!!! Who will possibly be able to afford this? This is NOT Health Care!!
Also, This Bill CUTS Doctor pay by 21%. Do you know of any Doctors who will agree to this? They will stop practicing! These thieves will ruin this country. My heart is heavy with sadness over this.
So not nice!!! I have learned to stay away from these Obama threads because of the hate and ignorance that is spewed!! Thanks for confirming...I have made the right choice!!

TheresMyFriend: I got a theory on the Democrats not wanting to use the KY!
With the stuff that comes out of each their mouths, I'm sure they have to use the KY as a "lip balm", or risk "chapping"!!
My ars is already chapped with their antics!
I hear you loud and clear!!!
My poor screen, I almost threw stuff at it, listening to their mocking and put downs. They are so obvious with their antics and not even good at being "crafty".
Shall we send a tube to each of our reps? Republicans can use it cos they are getting shafted. The Dems can use it for lip balm!
