Sinéad O’Connor, long a critic of church and state in Ireland, says she’s joining the Irish nationalist Sinn Féin party—and wants its leaders to step aside for younger voices free of IRA connections.

The 48-year-old singer, who recently released her 10^th album “I’m Not Bossy, I’m the Boss,” says Sinn Féin is the only left-wing party able to steer Ireland toward social equality. …

Well ain’t that hilarious. Separating the IRA from Sinn Féin is like trying to separate the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade from Fatah.

Insanity all-around these days

Or like trying to separate the enemedia’s lips from BO’s backside.

“Let me tell you something Q-ball..next time Old Glory goes up that flag pole you better be singing Star Spangled Banner!”

“It’s not my flag, I’m Irish.”
“Well ....stay off this stuff then, that’s the curse of you people.”

Heck might as well post it.

Is HER career tanking, too? These people are all idiots.

Why don’t they all just line themselves up with the ‘mindless anarchist’ party?

This sounds like a publicity stunt for someone needing a headline.
Whatever, Sinead. Do whatever floats your boat.

I am always amazed at what fading persons in the entertainment biz do to try and stay “relevant”.

Yes, there was no shortage of them for the aids concerts, but no one would slow down on the drugs and immorality that goes on in the entertainment business.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Ugghh. She gets to leverage the fact that she is Irish and hates the Catholic Church into a mention by any lazy American reporter looking for a unique angle in an “Irish” story.
