Shamrock for Obama is embarrassing sham

US President Barack Obama couldn’t even meet the Taoiseach on March 17 to accept the ‘traditional’ bowl of shamrock.

Enda Kenny had to wait around for a few days before being granted an audience with him. The shamrock will be thrown in the bin after the ceremony.

Apparently the reason for the presentation is to gain the dubious benefits of having ‘access’ to the President of the United States.
