>> Obviously, you don't live in New England. I'm Irish-American, seventh generation born in the US, but very proud to be of Irish descent. <<

there is nothing wrong with being proud of your irish descent. there is nothing wrong with being proud of one's jewish heritage either. i have never suggested otherwise.

>> The trials and tribulations of my working class Irish roots and the prejudice my ancestors suffered is part of my poetry. <<

i don't have a problem with that. i don't see what that has to do with what i have been talking about. there is a big difference between recognizing and displaying pride for one's heritage and having an emotional attachment to another country--especially when that attachment becomes a detriment to the united states. you aren't trying to agitate for the united states to go do ireland's bidding are you? are you trying to involve the united states in the clash between the IRA and the UK?

i didn't think so.
