Side point but we heard so much about those Irish being low IQ. You
think that's true? They don't have the same rep as being quite as
mentally versatile as say Ash Jews for instance? And this last
sentence will resonate with just so many: "Obviously, illegal Irish
should get on home to straighten out their confused brethren."

Annoying Irish Illegals Won=92t Go Away

In their own way, illegal Irish are among the most arrogant and
demanding of foreigners who have inserted themselves into America.
They believe Ireland=92s history of ex****ting its excess population
gives them some special rights not available to other illegal aliens.
As English speaking people from Europe, Irish are more culturally
similar to us than many other groups, but that background gives them
NO right to violate American immigration laws.
The most recent ploy of the Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform is to
engage in the sort of squishy redefinition of words we=92ve come to
expect from anti-border extremists: ILIR seeks legality, not amnesty,
for undo***ented Irish (Irish Echo, April 23, 2008).
This issue appears to be more pressing now. The Economist recently
warned that the weakening Irish property market could topple the
country=92s economy because of Ireland=92s dependence on construction-
related revenue. Unemployment in the Republic is higher than it has
been in a decade, while the first quarter=92s increase in unemployment
was the worst since 1975. Thousands of construction jobs are also at
risk in the North because of the downturn in building activity.
This is all the more reason to seek a legal pathway for Irish
immigration. From the very beginning, the ILIR aligned ourselves with
the Kennedy/McCain bill, which sought to create a conditional path to
legal status for all undo***ented immigrants. Kennedy/McCain did not
promote amnesty, and neither did we. We have never sought amnesty for
the undo***ented Irish. We sought legality.
The idea that America should award =93legality=94 (or whatever the verbal
fiction du jour is) to illegal Irish because of hiccups in Ireland=92s
economy is total tomfoolery.
Ireland is now a major immigrant-receiving country (particularly from
Eastern Europe =97 leading to a multicultural Dublin) and if there are
not enough jobs for Irish, then the Irish immigration pests should
petition Ireland to take better care of its own. We have more than
enough unwanted foreigners here in America already.
In fact, Ireland is so prosperous that its neighborhood bars are
closing =97 a curious concept, but that=92s what the Wa****ngton Post says:
In Affluent New Ireland, Rural Pubs Are So Yesterday. Obviously,
illegal Irish should get on home to straighten out their confused
brethren.
