Is Kevin Myers confused?

Has Kevin Myers forgotten that he writes for the Irish Independent and not the Torygraph anymore?

I know he can write what he likes but jaysus, besides a few squaddies in Kandahar having to buy their own boots, who cares? If this turns out to be the final nail in the coffin of Britain imperial notions, fine, if it doesn't - I don't care either. Does anyone else? Or just the Colonel?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Ho_hum

And the column starts with:

What follows is of no interest whatever to the majority of Irish Independent readers, especially females

Truly, the man's a misogynistic, Empire-humping turd.

Warning! What follows is of no interest whatever to the majority of Irish Independent readers, especially females. Please read Ian O'Doherty twice instead.

Is Iano writing the same article in female speak or something.

When this column's two remaining readers (Ulick McEvaddy and Michael O'Leary, probably) hear of this cancellation -- around 2014 -- remember today's prediction, if you please, and buy me dinner.

I don't think anyone else will here about it! or else it will be cancelled by the EU

Well, there are a lot of female misogynist's that write for various newspapers so to get a different view from Kevin makes a change. Whether you agree with him or not he is always worth a read.

Misogynistic, No, i think that you are reading too much into this, surely he is implying that females have absolutely no interest in warfare!!! - Empire Humping?? the article is wholly critical of the "empire"!!

The larger picture indicates thats gearing up for war instead of fixing home issues first is, as usual, arseways.

Margaret Tatcher, Queen Elizabeth 1 and I am sure their are more. I think he is being condesceding and looking to make the article look some how contraversical. He hunts contravercy.
