Infact, calling them Ulsterman would be just as contreversial as calling them Irish since only 6 of the 9 counties make up Northern Ireland.
Catholic people in Northern Ireland tend to style themselves as Irish while Protestants are more for Irish or Ulstermen...
Personally, I would've called them "Northern Irish".

That would have been easier perhaps- however the fact remains that there are people in Northern Ireland who call themselves Ulstermen and dont want to be called Irish in anyway and there are people who prefer to be known as Irish...its a curious thing based on the catholic-protestant split.

Why would Obama vote NO to an amendment that would prohibit undocumented immigrants convicted of aggravated felonies, domestic violence, stalking, violation of protection orders, crimes against children, or crimes relating to the illegal purchase or sale of firearms, from gaining legal status.

Because all Muslim are just that and they'll have a harder time blowing up America if they're illegal, duh.Edit: You realize that McCain also voted against it too, the Cornyn Amendment (SA 1184 to S. 1385)?
McCain is the same as Bush! McSame! 4 more years of Bush!
(McCain and Obama voted for the same thing? But..I thought McCain was just like Bush? Wouldnt that make Obama like Bush as well?! OH NOES!)
McCain sucks illegal immigrant cock, we all know that.
And well Obama..Obama will suck a homeless mans cock in a back alley for votes.

Originally posted by Grand_Moff_Gavoh my bad then.. i guess i just assumed when entering the thread that it was going to be about americans rejecting obama rather than the general anti-american sentiment in europe.
The thread title was the title of the article.
but since the article was written from a european perspective i guess the title is fitting.
Here is quite an interesting video released by the McCain campaign...

HAHA! What a load of rubbish. That video failed to point out that Obama wants to rid Americans foreign oil dependency through higher standards of fuel efficiency requirements and alternative fuels.
No to offshore drilling? WTF?
Why the hell is that a bad idea? I don't want more oil. How about raising taxes on gas and giving companies like Tesla Motors grants? hmmmm?
Originally posted by red g jacksWell I think felons should vote, but how does voting = citizenship?
good article. i think you missed the point a bit with the thread title but still an interesting read......no. if felons from our own country can't vote i don't see why felons from other countries should be granted citizenship.

I understand, you tried to show Obama as some villain for his stance on something, it's shown that McCain (your current hero and new last hope for the future) has the same stance, ergo, you're a silly biased ass. So you reply with the only thing left in your arsenal, nonsense rabble. Have another Bud on me, champ.

Not bad, or give companies that come up with viable alternative sources disgustingly huge tax breaks, let the free market solve the problem. It has a better chance than the government.

That's actually an even better idea. That would be like giving the federal finger to companies like Exxon Mobile who literally refused to listen to the share holders pleas for alternative energy investments.
