The other half are Italian, aren't they?

Oh, but what about the half that are full-blood Native American?

And where does that leave the half that can trace their family right back to the British royal family?

...not forgetting the half that think that all foreigners should bugger off home :)

And I could say that for Ireland too. Half are Italian. But in last two years Polish people are not outnumbering the Italians by 2 to 1 because of the EU member states. Ireland today is populated by citizens from the 25 EU member states. In fact everyone it seem wants to come and live in Ireland

Now would you have meant "Happy Holidays" of "Merry Christmas"? There is quite a scandal here aver the legal or politically correct usage- seems like the Jews, Muslims, Krishnas, etc may be upset by Merry Christmas...and the GD evanjelical (read FAKE) uberkristians will accept no less that it.

Odd... I remember hearing Happy Holidays 40 years ago before we all became so PC- I always thought they meant Xmas AND New Years...
