If they were private people like the rest of us the sniggers would stay in the local pub and the gleeful sermons on the church doorstep, they chose their lives and made their own mistakes, they must live with the consequences.  If it is established that PR knew of his wifes financial arrangements they will no doubt, in due course receive all the privacy anyone could want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for Gerry Adams, apart from the timing I see no connection here. Child Abuse is the worst crime, there is no excuse and no forgiveness, and for that very reason many families try to keep it a secret. I will not blame Gerry Adams for, for once, bearing a strong resemblance to everybody else.  I will await his brothers trial and if his involvement was more or worse than we know to date, then I will join those condemning him, until then he is innocent until proven guilty.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4807238897188927967/5408388462516401576/comments/default/1087814166700682358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4807238897188927967/5408388462516401576/comments/default/1087814166700682358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepensivequill.am/2010/01/iris-virus.html?showComment=1263042435521#c1087814166700682358' title=''/><author><name>pippakin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13782297706170898820</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://thepensivequill.am/2010/01/iris-virus.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-5408388462516401576' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4807238897188927967/posts/default/5408388462516401576' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1769175302'/><gd:extendedProperty name='blogger.displayTime' value='1:07 PM, January 09, 2010'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-888699915145523579</id><published>2010-01-09T12:07:47.600Z</published><updated>2010-01-09T12:07:47.600Z</updated><title type='text'>This is terrible to say but I am fucking delighted...</title><content type='html'>This is terrible to say but I am fucking delighted for these so called god fearing pair of bastards , they are so sanctimonious , telling homosexuals how to live, get castrated  I think that is what she really wanted to say.
