Sir, - With reference to Kevin Myers's view of our former President (An Irishman's Diary, September 19th), I am gratified that the President of Israel, for example, exhibits views at variance with its Prime Minister. I suggest time will measure Mrs Robinson by her intellect rather than her travels. We need a live phoenix, not a sculpture, in the Aras. - Yours, etc., Liam Bourke,
Patrick Street,
Tullamore.
