TRANSCRIPTION MCCAIN: "You know, I don't know why it is that, and I'm sure you know, but I still don't know why it is, there's only one ethnic joke that can be told in American politics and that's Irish jokes. And I don't know why that is, but it just is a case. So here's the joke. There's a bar in Philadelphia empty, one guy down on either end of the bar. Finally, one guy gets up, goes down sits down to the guy next to him in the bar and says, where you from? He says, I'm from Ireland. He says, really? He says, I'm from Ireland too! He says, well let me buy you a drink. He says, no let me buy you a drink! They're buying each other drinks, back and forth, and the guy says, well where you from in Ireland? He says, I'm from Dublin. He says, no, I'm from Dublin too! Really? Back and forth, and finally the guy says, where'd you go to high school? He says, I went to St. Mary's. He said, you couldn't have gone to St. Mary's, I went to St. Mary's. Wow! They're buying each other drinks, a lot of commotion, and a guy walks into the bar, sees all the commotion down there at the end of the bar and says to the bartender, he says, what's going on down there? The bartender said, it's just the O'Reilly twins getting drunk again."

that was funny... you know for me i dont mind irish jokes by foreigners that are fairly accurate of us but i hate when they go on about leprechauns and putting on voices that make you cringe...
From Dublin myself. Hope to God Obama wins. However that was a good joke and it gave me a laugh! People get upset too bleedlin easily. Fair play to McCain at least he knows Dublin is in Ireland. Not sure if you could have said the same about George W eight years ago.
ah jaysus, it wasnt that bad. I'm a Dub and cant stand Republicans, American or Irish republicans. Leave the old fart alone and let him have his laugh.
