It was to have been a joyful celebration of St Patrick's Day involving traditional blarney, a presidential speciality. Instead it turned ugly for the commander in chief, when the Irish proverb he cited claiming deep affection for something he had heard many, many times, tuned out to be a verse from the work of a Nigerian poet Mr Albasheer Alhassan. The good new is that an investigation has already apportioned blame to stay-behind undercover Obama operatives at the hated State Department. It's certainly not the fault of the Bungler in chief, and the merry band of imbeciles he employs on his staff. http://edition.cnn.com/2017/03/17/politics/trumps-irish-proverb-nigerian-poem/in | |
