Mike told a group of prominent Irish Americans that he was used to seeing "people that are totally inebriated hanging out windows" of the Fifth Avenue townhouse of American Irish Historical Society while celebrating the release of a book celebrating 250th anniversary of New York's Saint Patrick's Day Parade while he stood in that very Fifth Avenue townhouse.

I cannot wait until March 17th. I'll find my place along the line of march good and early.

Once, long ago, in a bar in the Bronx, I met the guy that hit Dinkins in the head with a beer can for what that mayor tried to assert over the parade. I got the impression he’d do it again, were he so roused.

That joke has run it’s course Mike. If a major city mayor had made a joke about Bloomberg, his heritage and money they’d be....

This guy, I’ll remind you, is supposed to be the great moderate hope to take the GOP back from us bigoted wingnuts.

:-D )))

Mikey, lines like this were funny in “Bulworth” because Warren Beatty is a skilled comedic actor. You are not. And most importantly, he was playing a fictional politician, which again, you are not.

As I always say in drinking with the boyos, “I’m not Irish, but the people who carry me home are...”

It’s kind of fun to see the ever politically correct Bloomberg step in it with a large, if non-protected, group. But, being of 100% Irish ancestry, I really am not offended. I MISS the good ole days when ethnic jokes were tossed around among friends. Everyone’s getting offended these days really offends me.
