So, you ready for a good drunk? Are ya one f the 34 million Irsh decents ready to toast your heritage?
How did such a lampoon of a holiday slip through the PC cracks of society anyway? I mean, it's not like a great man roamed the earth resuscitating imperiled lives with his alcoholism?? He Didn’t even start a war—and that’s ALWAYS been a good start for a praised leader.

That’s not funny. That’s just sick.
Of the 1000 people USA TODAY polled last week, only (1) could name all (5) First Amendment freedoms,
Here’s an idea, how bout putting down your pint for a night, and Google the internet for the latest Oil Spill in Alaska…you know, 2nd largest?! …haven’t heard? Hmm, I wonder why…
