I was happy that Casey & Pamela wanted to include Lawrence in their move, as part of their family. I still wasn't sure if the poor lad could completely accept them or their love yet though, considering his life, but I hoped so. Casey and Pamela would make wonderful parents to a teenager. -- Cindy's Cottage

I sure hoped that Casey could play a minor role versus being a full-fledged member. I don't know though, he himself says it feels like it's something genetic yea? I'm a little confused - can someone explain or remind me cuz we probably talked about this before....why should the party and army be publicly separate? (NT) --

Because Sinn Fein knew they would never be accepted as a legitimate political entity as long as they were viewed as the political wing of the IRA. (NT) --

Ahh ok - because Casey was the one to say it (to Robin as part of what the IRA needed to do), I was confused. (NT) -- Mahri, 14:00:31 08/10/09 Mon
Woo boy, I remember when Clinton met with Sinn Fein. What a ruckus he created back then! (NT) -- E, 16:04:02 08/10/09 Mon
- I believe he was the first President to allow Gerry Adams into the US. Both Adams and Tony Blair credited Clinton with the survival of the peace accord, he wouldn't let either side walk away until they came to an agreement and this went on over years of back and forth negotiation and stalemating.

  - I was just reading something about this - sure pissed off the British government when he granted THAT Visa didn't it? (NT) -- Mahri, 16:57:33 08/10/09 Mon
    - Oops, I'm sorry, Mahri, we must have posted at the same time. (NT) -- Elaine, 17:01:47 08/10/09 Mon
  - Yes, first prez to officially recognize Gerry Adams, and grant him a visa to enter the US. A very big deal, and one that was met with great criticism. (Success has a way of quashing the critics.) (NT) -- Elaine, 16:57:45 08/10/09 Mon
