So will these idiots apologize when someone wears a green shirt and hat on St.Patrick’s Day?

I want to see footage of both Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi shaking their maracas, as an apology by MSNBC.

He says it feeds "the ignorant misconceptions of a rich and proud people who unfortunately are too often portrayed as caricatures to be scoffed at."

Damn straight there was no mention of human sacrifice and not one donkey in sight either, and they totally left out the hids selling chicklets!

NO. Nor would they apologize for taking a swig of beer on St Patricks Day.

The (we) Irish can take it.

Others demand superiority and equality. The Irish worked for it and earn it wherever it’s deserved. and can take a joke.

When the Irish demand that we ‘press one for Gaelic’ - never.

WE assimilate into a foreign country just fine, like the rest of the immigrants in history, thank you.

Not these guys and not the mus

So who was fired or will be forced to sell their ownership over this insult to Mexicans? If no one is disciplined then there is a HUGE double standard!

Next they’ll be apologizing for saying ‘Cinco de Mayo’ instead of Fifth of May.

One of the few times that MSNBC was right.

No apologies required.

Why the hell should May 5 be celebrated in the USA?

Where is the Barf Alert, on that obscene request?
