    The good Protestants I grew up with in a Colonial town had their ethnic days, too. They were just more demure about it. As for Jews having "ethnic" holidays, yes, those would be (to name a few):


    Purim

    Passover

    Rosh Hashanah

    Hanukkah

    Succot

    Tu B'Shevat

    Lag B'Omer


    Furthermore, WHO IS AGAINST HOLIDAYS!? That's like saying you hate fun!

    I wonder if he was more fun and carefree in his childhood, when his name was Annakin.

    In any case, with his blanket dismissal of ethnicity and one's past, you hafta figure he's got some slave-traders or baby-eaters in his family tree.

    I think there was an episode of All In The Family with this very rant, except in that one Meathead came in and verbally smacked Archie down and the audience laughed and laughed.

    It's kind of amazing. It's only a minute long, but he doesn't put his foot in his mouth so much as give both feet a warm, luscious, drooly tongue bath.

    With that skin, you're telling me Lou Dobbs doesn't have some Irish in him? That kind of sweaty pallor and pattern of broken blood vessels doesn't just happen, you know. It's a gift from the Celtic god.

    Sure, and it was terrible times when the robots had the run of our blessed Ireland. What with their clankin' and beepin' and swishin' around like some gold-plated interior designer, it were near impossible to have a moment's peace.


    Thank the heavens above the blessed Dom Patricius found his way to our island. He took one look at those benighted automatons and said "Be off with you! We'll not have our evening's drinking spoiled by your attempts at wryly whimsical comic relief!"


    And so the cursed androids made their way across the seas to far off California's shores, where they awaited the coming of the Spielberg and Katzenberg and all the rest o' them Bergs. And Ireland ever after knew peace and the grace of our dear Lord and Savior, amen. *belch*
