A holiday home in Connemara is at the centre of a growing row in America involving a prominent Democrat politician, a convicted insider trader and the former president Bill Clinton.
The purchase of the home by Senator Christopher Dodd is being examined by the US Senate ethics committee after allegations that Edward Downe Jr, a businessman convicted of insider trading, acted as a “middle man” in the deal.
Eight years ago Dodd, who ran for the Democratic presidential nomination against Barack Obama, lobbied Clinton, the then president, to grant Downe a pardon. This has prompted further questions about the financier’s involvement with the Galway house.

Those investigating this better be careful or King Obama will have their head on a platter for doing their job as he did with the IG.....

I'd say the last laugh is on you Weekend Liberal flunkies. These people actually have principle and stand up for what they believe in. All the *******s have are the warm and fuzzy feeling of electing the first black president to lean on. That's the true depth of the liberal movement. I'd be embarrassed if I were you.
I checked the link and Denver isn't even having a party. The "Denver area" party includes a cookout in a NW suburb. Doesn't sound like much of a protest to me. And even now, 10 days before the 4th, they still need volunteers and are still getting things "hammered down".

You are absolutely obsessed with race and color. If I recall, you startead a thread aboaut Michelle Obama's wax image not being dark enough, and made some comment about BO himself looking "paler" recently.

What's the over/under for % of participants who understand how income taxes work and what socialism is? I'm saying 30-35%

So..It was their country that settlers stole. And if you 1/100 black, you're black in this country, which was my point, right or wrong.
