Seanmor - Goggle Grant Wood's painting "Daughter's of Revolution" and read about the sgnifigance of the objects in the room with the three ladies having tea.

Seanmor - My wife's mother was also in the DAR as was my mother. Mine was also in the Daughters of the American Colonists as she was descended from John Howland a Pilgrim on the Mayflower. I'm not sure why this is important to you. While I love searching for my ancestors, I certainly do not believe that living here longer gives me any inate claim to be more deserving of America's blessings than you who are naturalized or any newly arrived freedom seeker. If this is your belief, shouldn't you be for turning the country over to the native Americans who have been here the longest? The vitality of this country has always been its immigrants. And while many of its early citizens were monolithic, it is interesting that Ben Franklin belonged not only to a church but also to a mosque and to a synogogue in Philly. The OTHER people have always been here contributing to our greatness but some how they were left out of the American story that we taught our children for so long. As one of those from the sixties generation (b.1949), we are very glad to see the "Traditional American's" rear end. Bigotry, don't let the door hit you on your way out. We only ask why has it taken so long for love to kick hate out?

Right off my opinion of O'Reilly is...he's a wind bag. I can't imagine him ever teaching school or maybe I can and those poor kids exposed to the pompous ass not having a chance to learn anything accurate. Virtually every historian of any note has panned his book on Lincoln, "it's full of inaccuracies and shows limited research". So why should anyone give credence to his opinion on what "traditional" America should look like. 71% of the voters were white, he's just upset that 32% of them voted for the President! What's he afraid off immigrants?

Since America stands for freedom it shouldn't be a white controlled Nation it is America land of the free. I am a white person and I'm glad it is not "a white America" any more.

It is unfortunate but true that that the "traditional America" of which Bill O'Reilly speaks in fast disappearing. Two months ago the D.A.R. chapter to which my wife belongs (having ancestors on both sides who fought the Briish in the Revolutionary War) held a meeting here in our livingroom, where their guest speaker gave a talk on of the U.S Constitution and its 39 signers (at least 3, if not 4 of whom were were Irish natives). The speaker said that all the signatories were male, white Christians - no Afroes, Hispanics, Asians or Native Americns. Much of this traditional America was still in existence when Jack Kennedy was our President, and I was proud to have him as my Commander-in-Chief for almost 3 of my 4 years in the Marine Corps (as an Irish citizen). Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm glad that I always respected and obeyed the laws of this great nation as a resident alien and later as a U.S. citizen. Rewarding ILLEGAl aliens,by granting them full amnesty and gifting then citizenship in most unfair to those of up who always play by the rules, and it gives the green light to countless millions of other would-be immigrants to come here illigally and expect similar rewards. Apparently those who support Obama approve of illegal aeniens obtaining free health care in emergency rooms, while I and many other vterans who honorably served the nation must pay $50. for every vist to a V.A. hospital.

How are the inner city blacks doing after 4 years of obama? Are they better off? Ephraim the times are not a changing for them, just good voters to keep poor and dependent in the modern plantation of the inner city.

NO, Kilgara, those born before 1956 know what life was like for non-whites under Jim Crow in the South and rampant discrimination in the North. They know what second-class citizenship was like for women. They protested and worked for "our morals, our decency and a lot of our freedoms" and won some important battles--ending an unjust war and demanding equality in our institutions. Your ridiculous 'post hoc ergo propter hoc' way of thinking shows us in which era your mind is stuck. "Chaos and breakdown" began as backlash and continue now as illustrated by your contempt for core American values.

You have to have been born before 1956 to have witnessed what a truly great country we once had.So anyone born after that time has only seen a steady deteriation in almost every aspect of American life. We have slowly but surely lost our morals, our decency and a lot of our freedoms.A large part of the blame lies with the sixties generation who trashed what was previously held sacred , but had no answer as to what to replace it with . Chaos and the breakdown of American society soon followed.The generations that followed are for the most part clueless and amoral and that is why they vote in a total zero like Obama, worst president ever.We are well on our way to becoming a third-world sump hole. God save Ireland and America.

Scriviner when there is a disaster you don't sit back no matter what. George Warmunger Bush didn't move very fast when told of 911 either, was there a Demacratic what do call it keeping him from that too. Obama didn't let anything keep him from going to see the distruction of Sandy. Good try but not good enough to beat this Canuck, try harder next time.

Whites in the minority? When was the last time you looked at your spots for the "Gathering"? And besides Bill O'Reilly is an idiot. Works for Fox, the most misinformed group of dolts every to assemble. Just because someone has an apostrophe in his last name and is on television does not make them knowledgeable. When is Irish Central going to pull its head out of its collective rear end and stop swooning over the like of O'Reilly and the other so called "Irish" on Fox?
