RandomProddy Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 (edited) An interesting quote for you guys.. [quote]They are more Irish than the rest of us, they believe. They are the pure master race of Irish. They are the keepers of the holy grail of the nation. That deep-seated attitude, married to their method, has all the hallmarks of undiluted fascism. They have all the other hallmarks of the fascist - the scapegoat - the Brits are to blame for everything, even their own atrocities! They know better than the rest of us[/quote] --John Hume on the IRA. Edited January 20, 2005 by RandomProddy

Guest Aluigi Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 we would be Irish if it weren't for the beaver dam potato famine. read the Republic's constitution, they recognize their bond with people of Irish ancestry all over the world. So THERE

You assumed I take it [quote]Read the Republic's constitution, they recognize their bond with people of Irish ancestry all over the world.

Laudate_Dominum Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 [quote name='Noel's angel' date='Jan 22 2005, 05:23 PM'] guinness isnt irish [/quote] I know! I read the back of the can the other day and it said it was brewed and bottled in Toronto Canada!! They'd probably be brewing it in Milwaukee except they wouldn't be able to charge import price for it. Phooey!
Laudate_Dominum Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 What was this debate about again?... I must admit I've never cared much for politics and I try to avoid political discussions, but I suppose I have an opinion on these matters. I think cars should be banned and that the Fionn should be revived and then Ireland should be governed by Irish monarchs. Something like Return of the King, except the High King wouldn't marry an elf. I think it could work.
Noel's angel Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 sure, and then we can all become pagans again
