Irish Eyes Not Smiling Over Mayor Bloomberg's Inebriated Insensitivity
Mayor Bloomberg described Irish New Yorkers as being ''inebriated,'' and he added that he was accustomed to seeing drunken Irish ''hanging out the windows'' of the American Irish Historical Society in their drunken state.
The mayor's insult came during a speech he gave at the American Irish Historical Society, and his disparaging remarks triggered boos from the audience.
In an article about the insult, The New York Times quoted John Dunleavy, the chairman of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, said the mayor’s words were “outrageous and totally uncalled for.”

I'm still pissed at Bloomberg for marching in the homophobic hate parade in Manhattan on St. Patrick's Day.
