Subject: RE: Protestant Men
Michael,
First, welcome to our community, my brother. I am a Union Organizer in my day job for the UFCW. Please stay involved here. You will find some of the most amazing people you have ever met, discussions that are brilliant, disagreement for the most part without rancor, and zany comments that will make you laugh out loud. And ultimately you will have to join a 12 step program to deal with your addiction to the 'Cat.

With regard to your song request, I will try to find something in my library, which is fairly extensive, but it does not ring a bell. But let me point out (and I am an Irish Catholic, and republican in the Irish sense)that many of Irelands greatest patriot's were Protestant. Parnell, Wolfetone, and many of the United Irish leadership were such. Party's whose self interest lies in keeping Ireland divided are the ones who make a religious issue of the troubles. But this is not about religion, it is about economics among other issues. The important thing now is that the Irish people have spoken and it is our duty to support them in their quest for peace.

OK, OK, Mick, off the soapbox. I will try to find the song for you, and I will bet someone comes up with it before I do.

Mick
