Hilbillies are Scot Irish - you can hear it in the music.

Could be, but also some folks really are Scottish and Irish in origin. In part anyway. I've got that. :')

professor of clinical sociomedical sciences

That is the perfect job for a liberal.

Not just your typical street liberal, but one who works at it 24/7.

How does the professor explain the pre-Celic inhabitants of the British Isles and how they came to be dispossed? The Picts gave up their land voluntarily? Irish history/folklore records the wars the Gaels waged to conquer Ireland from the people who lived there before them.

Yeah, kinda foolish, eh? "The Book of Invasions" (if memory serves, may have been a different work or works) gives kinda weird cultural details of the various successive people who arrived, and at least some of those were confirmed by archaeology.
George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent

I'm not exactly sure why, but I'm sure Bush is to blame for something here. He is a divider, not a uniter or so Kerry claims.

Yes, hence the term Orange Irish, as opposed to Green Irish (catholic) Northern Ireland was termed the Irish plantation. Great book on this titled *Born Fighting* by James Webb.
