Correction: It’s the Irish Barack Obama (and Here’s the Music to Prove It)

Posted by Scott Lucas in Political Humour

Readers in Dublin are buzzing* over the news of the not-quite-smash hit from Limerick group Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys (aha — even a-not-that-side joke with the name), “There’s No One as Irish as Barack O’Bama”.

*Our inside source in Dublin corrects us: “The word ‘buzzing’ should actually be ‘embarrassed and ashamed’.” We apologise for our initial error.

We’ve snared the music video for you — and for anyone at Conservapedia who wants to set the record straight:

Emm I know Scott is in Dublin today and perhaps the Guardian is getting way ahead of itself a bit but has anyone noticed this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/nov/18/hillary-clinton-obama-white-house

Yeah. But I thought her husband’s foreign and financial “entanglements” were a stumbling block for Hillary and that Obama would have to appoint another for the post. I didn’t come across any details on that though.
