  • Wait wait.....why is was he in Ireland?

  • @IndescribableEnigma On a visit.

  • not mentioned here is another thing as irish as cúpla focal is racism

  • @nosequiters Coming from a country that spawns the likes of the BNP - You aren't in a position to discuss racism. I don't see any racists in that crowd.

  • Dun do chlab, amadan dubh. Tiocfaidh ar la!

  • @bheadh Ná bí ciníoch.

  • let's try keep the politics out of it :) i just uploaded this to show barack speaking a cúpla focal. i don't think it's the right place to discuss american foreign policy. thanks guys :)

  • Dia duit Sean - thanks for your post of President Obama speaking a cúpla focal. I'm Irish-Scots-Irish for the most part; and I know that my great-great-great grandfather on my father was a monoglot Irish speaker. The Irish Diaspora brought him to the U.S. No one in my family has ever returned to Ireland on either my mom or dad's side. I'm planning a holiday next year. I am teaching myself Gaelic to reconnect with my Insular Celtic ancestry. Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam. Slan! Lee

  • Few things are as annoying than everyone thinking they are Irish...especially Obama. Sorry man, You Are Not Irish!

  • @ikilledmacdre Scriú Meiriceá!

  • @TheAnthery At how horrible his accent was? Same here

  • I thought Ireland doesn't like Demoncrazy, woops I mean Democracy, so why is this bozo there? I wonder what Sands, or Connolly would've don if they were in that crowd? lol

  • Who actually cares if he's black or white? Why do people have to make such a big fucking deal over this? So much for ethnic diversity. I hate uneducated fucks.

  • I think he's cute and we know he's very intelligent. Did you see his clip with him singing at The Apollo? He's full of personality! I love him.

  • OMG! Barack Obama turned into a bad actor! And so self-indulgent in appearance! Shit!

  • It sounds like an african language.
