Dublin was the geographical location of my mother at the time of my birth!
I'm tired of all your JFK pictures. How about some Ronald Reagan pictures?
Hmmm, well, I have some Irish roots back a few generation and a visit to Ireland will NOT influence me to vote for Obama!!! Keep him there, LOL!
Read this story with quotations, references on BBC's Homepage yesterday !!!
it was natural that there would be so many given the exertion by the occupier to plant so many of their own with which to get reluctant people to get on board on what was deemed good for them. A people who played some for favor - but overall they can thank St patrick for giving them backbone for a bunch of centuries to resist.. Planting the black irish worked miracles on the slicing and dicing of identities as in scot-irish - proddy - rc republican - ulstermen crap - and on it goes. The queen is showing up as her victoria did in the height of the famine. Queenstown (Cobh the exit point for her subjects)- we need another rename for a place yet to be worthy.
