Interestingly, if you go on some of the Irish newspaper blogs you will read an unbelievable amount of hatred towards America. They have convinced themselves that we were responsible for the IRA violence of the 60s and 70s - mostly because of people like Ted Kennedy. When Americans point out that it was a very small percentage of Americans who donated to NORAID, they refuse to listen to reason. Some even think that the majority of Americans are of Irish/English descent!

Penetrating political analysis has never been a strong attribute of the Irish, whether there or here.

A lot of Kennedy money went to the IRA....Joe P Kennedy was a Nazi-lover.
