I don't think most are. I went to a Catholic school here in the USA where the vast majority of my class mates were of Irish descent. They acknowledged the day, had their parade, etc. I come from a Catholic background, not Irish, and in my famly circle we were taught those who go nuts over St Pats Day were a bunch of jerkoffs, the day was just an exscuse to get drunk and act like an idiot. It wasn't said to be anti Irish, it was said to be anti drunk/hooligan.

People celebrate St. Patrick's day because they are herd animals and like to do what every body else is doing. They feel like good Americans when they do this.

I remember when I was a kid, eating some Chex Party mix at Christmas time, and a commercial came on with Charlie Brown eating Chex Party mix. I felt like a good American, for a minute! But then I realized eating Chex Party mix at Christmastime was just something I learned off the TV in the first place. None of my parents or grandparents ever ate Party Mix at Christmas. I was being programmed.

Americans obsessed? I don't think so. The jews give the ok to these kind of ethnic holidays because it promotes differences between Whites so they play it for what it's worth letting the irish have their parades and throw green dye in the rivers. Also, the retailers are pushing to make it another Halloween so they can sell decorations, hats, buttons etc. It is very big in Irish areas like NYC, Chicago, Savannah, Boston and Philly but a virtual non-event anywhere else.

We have it in England. At the same time Irish complain about Loyalist marches in Ulster, they are partying it up in England come March 17. I'm not Irish, not Catholic. Nor is anyone I know. Why force that shit on us? For commercial reasons, I'd say.

They say that there are more "Irishmen" living in the USA than in Ireland itself!
I would put it down to a lack of a coherent national identity among Americans.
How often do we see such ridiculous statements from Americans who say things like "I am a Scotch-Irish-German-Finnish-Swede"?

Very good points, but maybe all the hoopla can be used to our advantage. Pointing out the White European leanings of this holiday and the European history/culture involved and maybe you find a few converts.
Any reason to celebrate a European holiday with full public support is OK with me. :cheers:

The death knell for American national identity, in my opinion, was the civil war, freeing of slaves, and unchecked immigration (both legal and illegal). Another symptom is a division between those who know the truth about what is going on, and the sheep that blindly support ZOG.

I just say I am of Germanic origin, and that I don't feel very American. Though, I feel that I was born by American parents for a reason, rather than having been born of relatives who reside in Europe.

Now that's intelligent thinking!!!

It really should be mandatory that ALL white people celebrate ALL White European holidays-this creates solitary and inhibits nonwhites from believing that we are constantly in fighting among ourselves.

I don't celebrate any holiday myself,But I do respect the celebrations of ALL White Nationalities as i am very certain that the predominately White parades and celebrations do -very much-irritate and intimidate all nonwhites.

Indians hate Columbus day;and that makes me love it all the more.

they celebrate it because it is an excuse to drink. as well as its hip and trendy.

We don't force St Patricks day parades on English people who object to them, as the Loyalists in N Ireland do in Nationalist areas of Ulster. English people have the opportunity to ignore the whole thing, just as most of them ignore St George's day.
