I also found it amazing how they embraced his heritage as being part irish and showed a lot of respect for pres. obama. They were actually overjoyed he was there and more accepting of him being president of the u.s than some in his own country.
Hahahahaha. Do you even realize you called it Obama's place of birth. SEE....he isn't american born!

His heritage? Hmmmm, first we've heard about his Irish heritage. Funny, that.

The Irish are very proud of their beer. Foodies even tour Ireland for their beer. How is that stereotyping them to honor a tradition they are known for? And if a white president went to Africa during a century when they still had head hunters, it would probably be that president's head they would be shrinking. Bad analogy on your part.

Really?

March 17, 2009:

"As has been mentioned, it was brought to my attention last year that my great-great-great grandfather on my mother's side hailed from a small village in County Offaly," Obama said at today's St. Patrick's Day luncheon ...

See this is why I say the left "has brain damage"....You guys had yrs to pass any crap (Obamacare) bills you wanted,you people couldn't even pass a budget....So please stop with the nonsense.

What he says is NON IMPORTA! WHAT he does and how he does it, is a very different story!!!!!


Hint Hint econmy, housing criris, unemployment people still now losing jobs, businesses shutting doors, investors not investing as they are use too. gas still too high, food up, clothing up, most tangible goods up, non important what he says, actions speak louder then any words.

Hint, we have a huge border problem, he cares little about.

Thank goodness for Ireland he is not their President, if he were, they would not be so eager to greet him.
