From this DU Irishman,...
...Happy St. Patrick's day to you all.
Since Patrick was Italian, I've always wondered why this wasn't considered an Italian holiday also. However, growing up in the Philly suburbs and with many Italian friends whose parents frequentlu had me over for dinner, I can also say that when you're eating Italian, just about EVERY DAY is a holiday! 
To give you my bona fides as an Irishman, I won't reveal my last name, but my mother's maiden name was O'Donnell and her mother's maiden name was FLANNIGAN! 
So, to all DUers, Happy St. Pat's. To you lurking teabagger trolls, I say "The President is partly Irish, so SUCK IT"! 
PEACE!

1. Ok, I've read that St. Patrick's real name was Maelwyn and he was a Celt from Wales
