The IRA has abandoned its armed struggle in pursuit of its goals by political means. This must be fully acknowledged. Continued challenge does nothing but obstruct and inhibit the peace process. ↗

It's wherever business rules, business is going to get the politicians they want because they control the money and money controls the power. ↗

The thing about American politics, as I've learned, is there is no choice. ↗
