Obama visit to Ireland is confirmed by senior White House source

If the current occupant on the British throne is due for a visit to the ole sod, why not the current incumbent in the Whitehouse whose Kearney ancestors left the Emerald Isle in the 18th C? It'll be a roit hooley, I promise ye!

Obama has ben doing a wonderful job as president of the United States. He saves us every day from the crazy Tea Party and the nuts in the Republican Party who want to destroy the lives of the working people.

I'm visiting there in early May, don't want to see him or his motorcade. I'll be goin' to west Galway.

Keep him over there. Do not return

Obama didn't save the U.S. economy. The bank disaster was recognized and management of excessive risks began before he took office. More legislation is still needed. Many types of jobs were lost forever. Unemployment is still too high. The increasing fuel prices will hurt the economy again.

To bobduggins and the other Obama haters - how far back can you remember. Apparently not as far as the saintly George W. Bush,who had not problem getting us into an unwinable war.

OMG... WHAT A LOSER! ANYONE WHO THINKS HE'S INTELLIGENT, A GOOD PRESIDENT OR CHRISTIAN.... DRINK YOUR KOOL AID AND SEND HIM BACK TO MUSLIM TOWN. PLEASE DON'T KEEP HIM IN IRELAND, I WANT TO CONTINUE TO VISIT THERE.

God help us !!

I think it will be just wonderful to have the president over here,God bless him.

Can you folks figure out how to keep him there for a while? We would gladly exchange him for a few dozen Irish workers ...

I will wager that when-if-he gets to Ireland, he will magically find Irish roots. The Saints know that he has no connection to the African-American Community. None of his ancestors were held in slavery; so, he tries to be "everyman." Who is this guy-- really? The birthers are off the deep end; however, we know absolutely nothing about Obama? Nothing, that is, except what his ghost writer has provided in his two autobiographies. Something smells here- and it is not the rotten potatoes. The citizens deserve full disclosure from Obama. That includes those who voted for him. Right now he looks like the second coming of Jimmy Carter- whom I also voted for the first time.

Fantastic news. He is of course more Irish than the birther nuts posting their sour grapes below this comment. It was Bush and 10 years of banking industry bonanzas and then bailouts that nearly destroyed Americas economy. Thank God President Obama saved us from a depression. He's welcome to visit Ireland, where unlike George W Bush, he knows Dublin is the capital city.

Keep him.

Now then, and who put the O in OBAMA? I sure he will enjoy the Irish people and Ireland. May the sun shine on all that day in Ireland.

I agree with Eileen. Keep him there while he seeks and after he has attained the votes of the Irish Suckers. It is his only selfish agenda.
