3. The Irish are fine patriots IMO

My grandfather was in WWI as well. He enlisted with his father at his side watching his every move. He got out quickly as he accidentally cut off part of his right hand and it left him fairly disabled and he sure couldn't fire off a gun any longer.

My late husband came to this country in 1956 and he promptly enlisted in the U.S. Army. He was set to get out but was extended because of the Cuban Missile Crisis and he was given a commendation for his extra service by JFK. My husband was related to the Kennedy family by blood so maybe there was a bit of JFK in him I've often thought.

He was a fine patriot and he loved America a lot more that some two-bit MAGA wearing a red hat with a beer in one hand and nothing in the other one for they are LOSERS, that's right, LOSERS, all of them.

None of them had to fight in Vietnam wars. None of them even know when WWI was!

To hell with the Nasty pants idiots. They have nothing at all to offer America!
