No kidding. The Irish arent really the old Irish anymore anyway. As soon as Ireland got wealthy during the Celtic Tiger days they sold out to secularism for the most part anyway and now like 11% of Irish attend Mass anymore thanks to Vatican II.
Tyranny befits a decadent and immoral people. History reveals that freedom and decadence seldom abide, and personal experience in our dark era likewise confirms that effete men seek more than anything to preserve at all costs their beloved frivolities, readily sacrificing anything of true value. Herodotus gives one particularly illuminating example, and I can't be bothered at the present moment to track down the citation, but there was a state, I think in Ionia or perhaps further east, and the Persians, rather than defeating them in battle at their height, instead bribed them with their fantastic wealth for a period of years until they were brought to debility by their corruption, and they simply surrendered themselves to Oriental despotism. Poverty has great civic benefit. An austere people is unimpressed with foreign finery and will be bought by nothing, for they know the singular pleasure of honest life and eating by their own hand. Silks and gold to them are vain novelties, and they will just as readily fight off a king as a poor invader. Let Ireland fall under the yoke of Brussels. If they do not have freedom from sin, which is the only freedom that matters, and are under the yoke of the Enemy, what does it matter if their green hills and meadows are held by the English or bureaucrats from afar? They are already conquered and now is their time to bite the bridle and be whipped.

They said "no" twice and their government allowed a third referendum?
Something tells me that the powers that be only wanted one answer and if they had said no again, there would be another referendum and another and another.
Let's stop kidding ourselves that we live in democracies. We're in the Matrix and the scam is that we THINK we are living in a democracy.
Alex Jones is basically right.

I sat in Grealy's last night and Maeve poured me Powers and Millers while I talked with my Irish pals how the last light of liberty went out last night. An apologist was arguing that Ireland will not be required to provide abortion and I called him a liar but kindly and he left. The boys all to a man wondered aloud where in the hell he came from his accent was Dublin but Londonised, and he was as progressive as all the Democrats in America. Very odd that this stranger shows up to mollify the boys on this night.A visit from an imp??? tim

Or maybe a fourth or fifth if it was necessary. How many times have we seen this in the states with these"referendums" on social or economic issues? They vote again and again and again until the agenda that was "supposed" to pass to begin with finally gets it way. If that doesn't happened then they just bring in some federal judge in from somewhere to declare that our Constitution is really just a lot of bullsh*t and He (or she) will decide what's right.You're absolutely right...........democracy my ass.

Isn't Poland still holding out? Is there hope this thing won't go into affect?
No, but the Czech Republic is, in the person of President Klaus. Unfortunately, the Constitutional Court is probably going to OK it and he'll be forced to sign. As I predicted, the Czech Constitutional Court upheld the Treaty and President Laus has signed it. Europe takes one giant step toward the precipice!
