Despite the fact he endorses a killing spree all over the Middle East and drone affairs in Pakistan?

Sounds like a tosser to me.

Are people confusing 'met' with 'saw'? Beginning to wonder...

Haven't a bulls notion who these so called famous people are never heard of them other than that Murphy fella that was in that flop of a film the wind that shakes the barley.
Ok, there are are a few more I know while I was writing this.

Was in Eamonn Dorans years ago, the Fun Lovin Criminals were doing a set. Yours truly was very drunk. Spotted Huey - asked "are you Huuuuuueeeey....." and hueyed all over his shoes before passing out. He wasn't impressed.
