Erin Go Bragh; maybe next year the dogs of tolerance will open much wider and this nonsense of discrimination banning a group from marching and displaying their Irish pride will end. If we are lucky De Blasio's ratings will be falling so fast, he might decide that quitting would be the better course of valor before he chases all the job creators out of the city.
Top of the Tolerance on St. Patrick's Day Parade
It is a sign
of the times that shows tolerance in this nation continues to increase
Guinness,
the nectar of the Irish Gods, has decided its Parade sponsorship will cease.
Never
understood why a man or woman of the sod because he or she may be gay
Somehow is
stripped of his or her heritage and may not march on St. Patrick’s Day
Even in the
time of the Troubles with English Lion gunning down civilians in the streets of
Belfast
Some one of
English ancestry could pin on a shamrock and derby and march unhassled past
Not too many
years ago, Dogs and Irish in saloons could not be served
Why is a ban
on gay Irish marching something that the organizers want to preserve?
If as this
poet believes the Irish monks saved Civilization from the Ages Dark
No reason one’s
sexual preference should ban one from the marching on 5th Ave and
next to Central Park
There is
only one reason, somewhat of a stretch, to continue this idiotic ban, and it is just
one
De Blasio, a
mayor waging war on charter schools, the
parade so banning he will shun
As a major,
mired in payback to the teacher’s union and waging a anti-carriage war
He is a
disgrace to this fine city; we need less of him to swagger and not more.
