“I don't for one second step back from my responsibility as a leader of a struggle that has caused both hurt and damage to other human beings."
Thanks Mary for that link and as we can all see now here is a sentence taken from what Gerry has said to the reporter in which he publicly admits to being Chief of Staff of the Provo’s .They are there for all to see so hopefully our online friends from Sinn Fein can tell me that yeah its true he was in the Ra or maybe they give the number of Spec Savers and tell me I am blind.

Just watched the Late Late... much later. You should have stayed asleep Mackers as this Adams interview would give any Irish republican, nightmares as it was so bizarre. Gerry Adams has managed only to convince me that he is deeply lost in self denial so much so that his self denial has since been infected by a self denial all to itself. Also, I did find myself agreeing with Gerry Adams’ assertion concerning sections of the print media as being despicable and I was hoping that Ryan Turbridy as promised would return this matter but he didn’t.

It was indeed despicable that only a few journalists brought these matters to the public interest and more sad that Gerry Adams implication is that only one journalist was despicable. Which places me and Gerry Adams at a polar opposite viewpoint. I would ask Ryan Turbridy and the countless other “journalists” who stayed “mum” why? Gerry seems to praise those who remained non active. I praise those who placed it in the public gaze where it rightfully belongs.

Although, I am hopeful that some good and greater good will emanate from the interview, Gerry Adams says he will seek counselling. I hope he enters it with humility and arising from this humble process, a healing for many can emerge including Gerry Adams himself. Who still depicts himself as a man who did his best but could not even bring himself to say, I let my niece down. Gerry’s self denial is honest at present because he does not set out to let anyone down or put them down as he is at all times, striving to keep his self denial up.

If / When future counselling, soul searching and humility brings about a self realization and indeed many epiphanies for the Sinn Fein President to share with us all. Ryan Turbridy has the inside news because Gerry’s ego has well ..... sort of invited himself back to the show in 5 years time “God spur us” as the still President of Sinn Fein in 2015. This humble interview after 5 years of counselling would be worth viewing as Gerry might emerge from the closet of closets.

Yes, my name is Gerry and I was a proud volunteer of the IRA, I lived in self denial for decades and my ego run riot through many lives and I let people down.

My name is Ryan and my Granda was once an irregular just like Gerry and I think it is despicable that many journalists including myself are careerists and evade public interest when selfish interest is paramount

Cannot believe they paid him £10, 000 to do the documentary.What an insult to decent people! or maybe we will get to see him walking on water, hopefully not in the dead sea. Anyway he has survived whatever it was he got up to, could any of us survive watching him in "search of his Jesus"?

Mary, thanks for that link. It is certainly challenging to our sense of anything ethical to watch him at this lark. While I would think he is probably closer to Christ than Willie McCrea it doesn't give him much of a lead. It is so full of cant and dishonesty. Must blog something about it
