I believe what people took offense to was the comment about President Bush electrocuting people in the Texas governors Mansion....see below: "Well dear list-too bad we all don't have the very same opinion on things! If we all held my opinions, George Bush would still be in the Texas governors mansion electrocuting people. Sorry to break the news to you all, but I have traveled through certain areas of Ulster and what is spoken there is certainly of the very same intent as the advertisement indicated. Of course it is a dialect, and as you have travel through the Celtic countries, you will hear many differing dialects, Ulster Scots being just one. For those of you with an open mind ,I would suggest tuning in to BBC NI to hear their presentation on Ulster Scots. Maybe it is a dialect, maybe it's bastardized English, whatever it is, it's music to the ears! Well, maybe to some of us! Peace on earth and goodwill to all..."
