President Bush, Congressman King and Gerry Adams share a light moment after discussing the Irish Peace Process at the annual Speaker's St. Patrick's Day Lunch.
Mr. President, please tell the despicable terrorist-lover Peter King, Congressman from Long Island New York that if he doesn't publicly denounce the IRA you will ensure that he has Republican competition when he is next up for reelection.
Tell your cabinet to freeze him out if he does not comply.
And tell him to lay off the taters too and lose a few pounds.
This article didnt mention any connections with Senator Fat Ted.
Great photo! Look closely at the facial expressions and body language of these three men. Bush is practically in Gerry's face with that little "not-a-smile" smile. Gerry's face looks like he has gas, and his hands are balled up- did GW just refuse to shake his hand? Meanwhile, the congressman looks like he's hoping to sell Bush a used car...
Adams will meet congressmen and senators but he can expect harsh words from some. Senator Edward Kennedy, a leading supporter of Irish nationalism, said: “There is no place for a paramilitary organisation and criminal activity in a democratic political party, and I will tell Gerry Adams that.”
Congressman Peter King, Adams’s biggest ally on Capitol Hill and a personal friend, added: “The time has come for the IRA to disband . . . I think Adams is focusing too much on preventing a split and can’t see the forest for the trees.”
US turns its back on Sinn Fein
FWIW...
King has been a strong supporter of the iraq war, hasn't he?
