Blame the Speech - Adams
In this post that I made on March 5th, I drew your attention to a part of Gerry Adams' speech at the Sinn Fein Ard Fheis which I found to be most interesting where Adams said:
"We know that breaking the law is a crime.But we refuse to criminalise those who break the law in pursuit of legitimate political objectives."
Well now Mr Adams has told an American audience that he got his speech wrong!(hat-tip to One Angry Man) Adams told the Council on Foreign Policy in New York that when he said it is okay to "break the law in pursuit of legitimate political objectives", he should have used the past tense.
Aw, poor Gerry!The man can't even get his speeches right!The message to Sinn Fein supporters is clear.Your party President is either a liar, or else an idiot!
