Funny. You want even funnier, check out the poster behind the singer. FYI,
here's what Wikipedia has to say about James Connolly.
James Connolly (Irish: S amas Conghaile; 5 June 1868 - 12 May 1916) was an
Irish socialist leader. He was born in the Cowgate area of Edinburgh,
Scotland, to Irish immigrant parents. He left school for working life at the
age of 11, but despite this he would become one of the leading Marxist
theorists of his day. Though proud of his Irish background he also took a
role in Scottish and American politics. He was shot by a British firing
squad following his involvement in the Easter Rising of 1916.
Key word: Marxist
The jury's still out on Marxism. Kapitalism isn't looking so good lately.
I remain a libertarian anarchist.
