    Patrick O'Brien (c.1847 - 12 July 1917), generally known as Pat, was Irish Nationalist MP in the House Of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and as member of the Irish Parliamentary Party represented North Monaghan (1886–1892) and Kilkenny City (1895–1917). He was Chief Whip of the Irish Party from 1907 until his death in 1917.

    Biography

    Second son of James O’Brien of Tullamore, Co. Offaly, he never married. He trained as a mechanical and marine engineer but subsequently moved to Liverpool where he set up a business as a coal merchant. In his early days he was a Fenian and was imprisoned as such. After moving to England he became active in the Land League and in the Home Rule Confederation of Great Britain, and was again imprisoned in his capacity as secretary of the Commercial Branch of the Land League in Liverpool. He became known to Parnell who chose him as candidate for North Monaghan at a by-election in February 1886 after Timothy Healy, who had won the seat in 1885, elected to sit for South Londonderry. O’Brien was reluctant to stand but yielded to Parnell’s instructions to be in Monaghan the following morning. He went to catch the steamer for Ireland without returning home for his coat, but borrowed one which was several sizes too large from a friend he met in the street. In this he appeared at the Party convention.

    Pat O'Brien (Canadian politician)

    Patrick Wayne "Pat" O'Brien, (born January 13, 1948) is a former member of the Canadian House of Commons. Elected as a Liberal, he ended his career in 2005 as the independent Member of Parliament (MP) for London—Fanshawe in London, Ontario.

    O'Brien graduated with an honours Bachelor of Arts in history from the University of Western Ontario in 1971, and earned his Master of Education from UWO in 1981. He has served as a high school history teacher and was a member of London City Council from 1982 to 1993. He was also a school trustee from 1980 to 1982.

    He was elected to Parliament as a candidate of the Liberal Party of Canada in the 1993 election, and was re-elected in the 1997, 2000, and 2004 elections. From 2000 to 2003, he was Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for International Trade.

    Before leaving the party, O'Brien was often considered as representing the right-wing of the Liberal party. He was one of the fiercest opponents of same-sex marriage in the Liberal caucus, along with Tom Wappel. He has frequently chastised Prime Minister Paul Martin for not allowing a free vote among his Cabinet on Bill C-38, which is the act to legalize same-sex marriage in Canada. He has repeatedly called for the notwithstanding clause to be used to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which courts have repeatedly ruled requires the government to recognize same-sex marriages. He is also strongly against abortion.

    Just a couple of kids in the corner
    Talkin' smack about the sin of the world
    And how we're gonna get it back.
    And when I kiss you on the cheek, you laugh.
    Cause you think that I'm kidding when
    I tell you im not comin'- back.
    Cause right now I got a one way ticket.
    To me and my friends, we're gonna make a difference.
    Cause that's the way, that's the way we are.
    And Oh my God, I'm goin' crazy tryna figure out,
    Tryna figure out who we are,
    While you're wishin' on shooting stars.
    And Oh, my dear I'll do anything to keep you here,
    But I'm busy tryna figure out,
    Tryna figure out who we are.
    I've got a five dollar bill that I could share with you
    And we could go wherever it'll take us to.
    I gotta a feeling that it's further than you think.
    I've spent the last two years in the same pair of
    skinny jeans.
    I'm just a kid livin' out my dreams.
    So throw your hands in the air,
    Sing along if you're with me!
    Cause that's the way, that's the way we are.
    And Oh my God, I'm goin' crazy tryna figure out,
    Tryna figure out who we are,
    While you're wishin' on shooting stars.
    And Oh, my dear I'll do anything to keep you here,
    But I'm busy tryna figure out,
    Tryna figure out who we are- who we are.
    And everyday we do our best
    With what we've got, and nothing less.
    And Oh my god, I'm goin' crazy tryna figure out,
    Tryna figure out who we are
    While you're wishin' on shooting stars.
    And oh, my dear I'll do anything to keep you here,
    But I'm busy tryna figure out,
