Making It Sing

Sure, the Irish have a lovely way with this language borrowed from the otherwise-hated English. For example, Peggy Noonan writes for The Wall Street Journal, about President Obama:
The president was once seen as an idealist. He was hired to be an idealist! His ignorant shrewdness, his small-time cleverness—it just won't do. Nobody wants it. It's why people want to fire him.
More than you know, colleen, more than you know.
