sick is here to stay - Piers Morgan the only one with chutzpah to confront - the mamby pamby mouthing by americans makes one wanting to puke. Obamar, show some fire insteady of the mealy mouthed whine. Another wanting to make millions when he retires. Fire in the belly kind who says it like it is.

Unfortunately its only been in the last 5-10 years that the slavery of Irish orphans and minor offenders of law was stopped . I'm talking about the workhouses run by the anything But Christian brothers. (apparently a Jesuit group) Glad to see that the churches in IReland are close to empty. We're all for Freedom From Religion
