A
State Trooper pulls a car over on a lonely back road and
approaches the blonde lady driver. "Ma'am, is there
a reason that you're weaving all over the road?"
The woman replied, "Oh officer, thank goodness you're
here! I almost had an accident. I looked up and there was
a tree right in front of me. I swerved to the left and there
was another tree in front of me. I swerved to the right
and there was another tree in front of me!"
Reaching through the side window to the rear view mirror,
the officer replied, "Ma'am... that's your air freshener."
Yup. Barack Obama, 44th President of the good old
USA is as Irish as Bono. His great-great-grandfather came from Moneygall
in County Offaly.
To celebrate, we present the song 'There's No One as Irish as Barack Obama',
sung by Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys. It became an instant big hit on
YouTube, getting nearly 400,000 views in the first two weeks.
The band have been invited to Washington DC by Irish American Democrats
to perform at Obama's inauguration party on 19th of Janurary 2009. Go
Irish!
So get practising! To help you out, here's the words
of the song:
