Why this silly association with a brand of alcoholic drink? It's contemptible--don't the Irish have anything to be proud of?

pflynn70 I feel the total opposite. Everytime I heard him speak during the elections or soon after, Obama praised and respected his mother and her parents.The only time he mentions his father is to say he was more affected by his absence than his presence.

If Obama wants a pint in a nice out of the way Pub, go to Ballyglass CoMayo and go to the "Squeling Pig" I guarantee no one will bother him and the Guiness is great!!

I thought it was only on St Patrick's day that everyone was Irish!!! Show the man a good time, since by my own personal experience many older Irish-Americans are bigoted when it comes to race in this the states.

Put him under the pubs. Half of him under each one.

Actually, Reagan drank a pint of Smithwicks at his namesake pub in Ballyporeen during his presidential visit.
Moneygall must be the smallest village in Ireland if it only has two "licensed establishments". I'd say the solution to the problem is easy: he should have a pint in each!

He is coming to Moneygall to see if he can borrow or steal the Money and leave only Gall!

It's quite amazing that he is coming to Ireland,he always favors his fathers place of birth (probably his own as well)so it must be something for him to gain.Please do us here in the states, keep him there,give him a real job shoveling turf and B/S the locals with his falsehoods and empty promises.Maybe you can use some of his " hope & change, crap, we had enough!

He should have no problem choosing which pub to visit first. He is very adept at waffling back and forth, Undoubtedly someone will tell him which one to choose as he never made an independent decision thus far. Whichever one he chooses, do us a favor, KEEP HIM THERE. Ireland is already destroyed so he can't make it mush worse. He has and continues to destroy this country.

The winner is the pub where he doesn't go for his guinness. He probably will want a Bud Lite!

Amazing that Moneygall only has two pubs, it is must be a tiny place indeed.
