We can't trust the elitists but I am Scots-Irish. Actually of English/Irish/Scots ancestry. We built the early infrastructure of America. I have a friend who is of German descent and very proud of his heritage. I always ask him how it feels to have a bunch of backward, tobacco-chewing, grits eating, rednecks hillbillies come and kick arse on Germany's professional armies TWICE in one century! But regardless the fighters are country or from the streets, they sure has hell ain't from Academia or the media! People from humble backgrounds know that there are lines you do not cross and when you do there is a price to pay! What the elitists cannot grasp and understand is that President Bush speaks that language and it resonantes with the majority of plain Americans.

Why do the Irish fight amongst themselves?

Because there is no other worthier opponent!

Why do the Irish fight amongst themselves?

Island mentality is bred into their genes... There is nobody else to fight...

I'm 1/16 Irish, English, Scottish, 1/16 German-Jew, 1/8 Chinese, and 3/4 Samoan.
