6. Merely bc Prime Minister Bertie Ahern says something
.

Merely bc Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern says something does not, then, make it law in Ireland. And, note the AP article says that Ireland has a written constitution that indicates:

"Ireland's (written) constitution has a clause requiring the predominantly Roman Catholic state to protect the institution of marriage. . . . Ahern said it would be more difficult to legalize gay marriage in Ireland than it was in the United Kingdom, which approved the civil unions in December."

Celebrate if and when it happens not merely bc some pol releases a damn press release mouthing off trying to garner some votes!
