Well, That's a Relief!

I can finally stop tossing and turning: Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams told the Council on Foreign Relations Monday he was disappointed President Bush did not invite him to the White House for St. Patrick's Day. I've really been sweating that his feelings might have been hurt!

Adams is such a liar. He's raised money for terrorists and provided them with information, cover and allies, yet he told the group:

"Do I interpret that as a movement by this administration away from the peace process? No, I don't," Adams said.

"This will not be worked out in the White House ... This will be not worked out anywhere else except back on the island of Ireland."

Still, he said, Sinn Fein and others who want peace in Northern Ireland must have the "broad support" of the United States.

The fact that friends of the terrorist IRA were not invited shows Bush is serious about peace and isn't going to be seen standing next to Adams, just as Condi didn't visit Arafat's grave. Sinn Fein will not receive the broad support of the United States as long as Bush is in the White House, and that's good for Ireland. More here.

Update: This just in from the UN Press Briefing:

Prior to his meeting with President Abbas, the Secretary-General laid a wreath at the tomb of former Palestinian President Yasser Arafat.
