Obama campaign upsets Irish with incorrect four-leafed clover t-shirt campaign

Like the President designed the tee shirt. I blame the moron who couldn't take the time to research what a shamrock looks like. I would have gotten a lot of the shirts for family members, but not really interested in the four leaf variety.

To any Irish "upset" about the t-shirt, I say, "Good for you! You obviously live a problem-free life to be able to waste your time on such a non-issue". PS - I'm going to get one of those t-shirts. Cool!

Incidentally, folks, shamrock is clover: Trifolium repens and Trifolium dubium. It's not a special kind of plant all on its own. It's just clover and it grows all over the world.

VernonC-His Irish roots are offset by his islamic roots? What nonsense! Hes an irish as most of the Americans on this site and as he's never been raised by a muslim or in an Islamic country so your comment is cr@p!

Obama has previously referred to himself as "the fourth Kennedy brother", but if it's a four-lobed SHAMROCK, then they ARE talking about him as the fourth member of the Holy Trinity. Ironic, to say the least, in view of his islamophilic behaviors and loyalties.

Whatever his Irish roots are they are offset by his Islamic roots and the long association with the minister Wright that Goddamns America that may have had Islamic roots himself, if not roots then a favorable opinion of the Islamic version invented/copied by America and Christian hating individuals.

Yes, the apostrophe would be very Irish except that it was dreamed up by some Brit as a way of turning Irish-language names into English. But apart from that, yes, it's Irish. Sort of.

Oh my - clover? How about it's a Shamrock....

Good one, ktrush512! You too, faberm1!

Obama obviously thinks of himself as the 4th person of the Trinity.

Matty, hes about as 'Irish' as most of the Americans on this site.

Barack Hussein Obama is no more Irish than the gravel in my driveway.

Give me the shirt 4 leaves and all. You can have the President.....I'll keep the shirt!

bloody heck, must be a slow news day. The shirt looks great, where can i get one, 4 leaf SHAMROCK and all =^)

Still unbelievable that there are people who still don't understand that there is a difference between a shamrock and a four leaf clover..especially those who claim to be Irish....and I'm not talking about Obama here. The Irish culture does not come from the Lucky Charms cereal box which I'm sorry to say, most Americans get the connection from....the same as how most Americans forget the "Saint" in St. Patrick's day.
