NEW YORK (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that bringing women to the table is crucial to establishing peace agreements that last.
The former secretary of state addressed a luncheon in New York where she was inducted into the Irish America Hall of Fame by Irish America magazine. On the eve of St. Patrick's Day, the magazine praised Clinton for her work on the Irish peace process.
Clinton is considered the leading contender for the Democratic Party's 2016 presidential nomination but hasn't entered the race yet. She did not address the controversy surrounding her use of private email during her time as secretary of state at the event.
Instead, Clinton spoke about her experience meeting women in Northern Ireland and made the case that their involvement was crucial to cementing lasting peace in the region, along with the Good Friday agreement.

I got all excited for a sec. Thought it said “INDICTED”.
Probably it’s in recognition of the vast amounts of blarney that she’s spread around over the years
Lilly White Irish? I knew she was racist.
To be nominated for the Irish American Hall of Fame, shouldn’t you be at least an American?
HA!!!
Never heard of it but wonder how much it costs. I might want to be inducted. /sarc
The evil Leprechaun herself.
Things were so terrific in Ireland that my ancestors on 4 different sides decided to move out and come to America and help fix stuff so that one day the USA would be just as swell.
She needs to be inducted into Leavenworth.
No doubt to weigh in on the effects of climate change on muppets?
P.S. Desron13. Odd, I can’t seem to remember our Squadron number. Out of Newport RI in 67-68. USS Lester DE-1022.
Excerpt from another article linked below: “I was deeply involved in the Irish peace process,” she would boast on the campaign trail. Unfortunately for her, Judicial Watch forced the Clintons to release Hillary’s heavily redacted White House schedules, from which it was apparent that she had nothing to do with the peace process other than appearing in public with her husband, sporting her famous forced smile. More embarrassing, one of the participants in the Irish peace negotiations, Mr. David Trimble, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, attested, “I don’t know there was much she did apart from accompanying Bill around.” Trimble characterized her empty boasts as “a wee bit silly.” Earlier she had fibbed that “I actually went to Northern Ireland more often than my husband did,” adding that on one occasion she “pulled together in Belfast, in the town hall,” Catholic and Protestant women whom she persuaded to bury the hatchet so “the hard work of peace-making could move forward.” That whop per provoked London’s Daily Telegraph to report, “There is no record of a meeting at Belfast City Hall, though Mrs. Clinton attended a ceremony there when her husband turned on Christmas tree lights in November 1995.”

You go girl it just gets more people pissed off especially the independents.
Take inspiration from this!
You can morph into anything you want.
Want government handouts? Morph into an illegal alien.
Want protected status? Morph into a victim.
Don't like your ethnicity? Morph.
Don't like your gender's disadvantages? Morph.
Morph. Morph. Morph.
If you can morph once, you can morph any number of times!
Look on the bright side!
When our antecedents told us that we can be whatever we want to be, they had no idea how true that was!
Shame on the Irish American Hall of Fame, there are donkeys among us.
O.K., when she decided to run for the senate in New York all of a sudden she was Jewish. Now she’s Irish. What heritage will she claim next week?
How fitting.
Hillary has spent her entire adult life green with envy.
I’m part Irish. But would never want to be part of any org. that would have someone like me as a member.
