From 2:28 to 3:00 is the most eloquent argument in favour of gay marriage ever made in an assembly. It's still not the highlight though - that comes at 5:26 when he JUST holds back from shouting "Let's cut the crap!" Ireland has chosen a fantastic ninth president, to be sure to be sure.
A mind like a razor, take a look at how many times other speakers refer to their notes, Michael D has little need to do this as he speaks from within.
i dont really understand does michael d support gay rights? i live in ireland and am gay was just concerned about my future!! i was hoping norris would do it put i do like higgins he is a very well spoken man
@blah4239 Yes, he supports gay rights. The purpose of his argumenet was to was fight for gay civil unions (next best thing to gay marriage) and how it is a basic human right of ours. I voted Norris one, and Michael two.
Michael D is a moral giant. Heart like a bonfire and a voice like an icicle. His points of the erosion of the Irish family by usurious finance have never been more painfully germane.
Our Michael D.
Good on ya!
