Did I say I was criticising the weather underground?  I called them Trust Fund Terrorists so you're free to interpert that as you will.

The issue here has nothing to do with me or the Easter Rebellion (nice of you to notice btw) or the issue of armed rebellion.  I'm not running for President.  (one of the best decisions of my life)

At least Pearse and his fellow fighters knew what the British Colonial Office was capable of.  If you know what the GOP is capable of then stop playing games with "I'm more revolutionary than you are" and address the problem. (It was Sen OBama campaign team who had the poster of Che Guevara removed from a volunteer's office because it was "offensive" so I guess the Senator isn't so keen on revolutionary efforts either - anymore)

Can Sen Obama win the General Election with this kind of baggage?

Are you saying that all that can be offered is closing one's eyes and hoping it goes away?
