once again im truly proud to be irish, if only some of the higher politicians agreed with her instead of climbing up obama's ass. theres been mixed feelings here about her statements by the public. hopefully people will start doing more research now before blindly believing the news about the wars/fighting in syria/iran/iraq/ wherever it may be

I agree with everything my fellow Irish woman had to say there

She should be the next Taoiseach ( prime Minister ) of Ireland, now that would make me proud.

I am not up on Irish politics and this speech is spot on, but as I look into Ms. Daly's background I note she is a socialist at heart. All these politicians come in speaking of the people's rights and garnering support, and then when given enough power they show their true colors. I just don't know what to think of Ms. Daly.

What happens in the EU greatly affects America, yet most Americans are highly ignorant of what's going on there. I will also note that I am aware she left the "Socialist Party" in 2012 and joined the United Left Alliance (ULA).
She also seems to have been embroiled in a bit of scandal




On September 1 Dublin North TD (Teachta Dála—member of parliament) and long-standing Socialist Party member Clare Daly announced she had resigned from the party following a row over her political connection to the disgraced property developer and Independent TD Mick Wallace. She said she will “redesignate” herself as a United Left Alliance (ULA) TD.

Daly’s move demonstrates once again the thoroughly unprincipled character of the Irish ex-left as a whole, as it lurches ever further to the right. The ULA was founded against the backdrop of the collapse of Irish state finances and the negotiations with the Troika of the European Union (EU), International Monetary Fund (IMF) and European Central Bank (ECB) over an 85 billion euro bailout in November 2010. It is an opportunist alliance between the SP and Socialist Workers Party (SWP), designed to channel growing anger over the vicious austerity measures of the ruling elite back in to parliamentary politics and to maintain the control of the trade union bureaucracy over working class struggles.

It is my hope that she is truly for the people and not for Marxism which was never about the people, but power.

I admit it I never really looked into her background but I hope so to.

I mean it would be great to have someone in power who is willing and capable of standing up to the big dogs, seems an impossible task these days, you have hidden agendas behind almost every speech. sheesh!

How hard is it to get a good, decent, capable person in power


she did a kickass little rant there tho!

The Irish parliament member is absolutely right. That congress members -- both Democrat and Republican -- in the US aren't doing the same show how corrupt and evil they all are. Sure, Republicans might call him a hypocrite, but they won't call him a war criminal because they have been all for these wars the US has been involved in and which George W Bush started.


And now there is this secret trade agreement being negotiated with Asia and South America, and it is being kept secret under the auspices of national security. See this thread about it, if you haven't already:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

So now the government is using the rubrik of national security to hide trade agreements. This is no longer a democratic republic, but a fascist regime.

My only response is that I can't understand why we are getting ourselves involved yet again in another countries civil war. Can we take care of our own borders first? Why are we worried about their border? IDK. It just seems that whenever we get involved, it creates worse tension and strife for Americans....

As for the clip, I think she spoke with such conviction. She was angry, just like many Americans.
