"It was extremely important for me to thank them for support of the war on terror," Berman said of his visit with First Minister Ian Paisley.I love small towns (okay, cities) like this. The Mayor had to come all the way from Arizona to offer his thanks for support in the war on terror. Obviously a simple 'thank you' card wouldn't suffice. And, aren't thanks for support in wars something usually conveyed by someone a little closer to the role of Commander-in-Chief than the Mayor of Gilbert, Arizona?
And, one more thing, you ever notice that these ever-so-vital trips never seem to occur in January?
{By the way, can anyone shed any light on Ian Paisley's or the DUP's stance on the war on terror? I'm not sure I've ever heard anyone in the party speak out one way or the other.}
