even minded???????? You are an ignorant lout, just as Paisley is, was, and ever will be. He is simply the modern day figurehead for the historical, and hysterical, orange card that has been played successfully generations by the moneyied interests of the North of Ireland. This dolt was used, just as others had been for generations. This is the last vestige of British colonial usurpation of the assets of the Irish people. When the Irish workers of Belfast, and around Ireland started to realize they had more in common than the differences of how they prayed, the spectre of Papism was raised and used as a wedge. This has been successfully used to drive the interests of the working class into factions for years. The carrot and the stick requires both carrot and stick to work. As long as the economy of the area was based on industry, the bosses could use the carrot of discrimination in favor of the Protestant workers in areas of employment and housing, and the stick of discrimination against the Catholic workers in the same areas to keep the money coming in. Over the years they propped up this big mouthed, crude, and evil man who was only too happy to stand up like an evil mannekin shouting "No Surrender" to the Papist evil croppies. And while all this smoke was in the air, this small minded bigot didn't see that the economy changed and that the people best prepared to cope with that change were the ones that had availed themselves of the education system and could step in. And make no mistake about it, things have changed. Between exposure of the evils of this goon, the birth rate, the education system, and simple economics, Paisley's former benefactors and masters are gone.

So disappear into the sunset, you evil old bastard. Good riddance to you, and when you die, expect red to be worn at your funeral, and dancing to be done in joy. I hope its cardinal red.....just like the Bishops wear. And I hope, in your passing, you experience the misery you put on so many Catholic kids.
