I know a lady who does so much texting, that if you tell her a joke in person she will actually say, "LOL!" I have to admit I was doing the same thing when I read about Obama's trip to Ireland.
Of course, both Presidents Kennedy and Reagan were extremely proud of their Irish roots, and they made well-publicized trips to Ireland during their terms in office. With Obama's ship sinking fast, I guess he's trying to align himself with two of the most popular Presidents of the 20th Century.
He claims his forebears came from Moneygall, a town he will visit. In preparation for his coming, the locals have written a song for him . . . "There's no one more Irish than Barack O'Bama." That's about where my loudest "LOL" came in. I suspect we may be seeing that apostrophe stuck in his name a lot from now on -- in fact, we may even get a revised birth certificate. I can see it now -- Barack Hussein Kamehameha Soetoro O'Bama. LOL!
