St. Patrick's day is so fucking good that some Americans describe themselves proudly as Irish-American even tho' they've never been there.

I say 'some'; there are more Americans that describe themselves as 'Irish-American' than there are Irish folk in Ireland.
Don't give me that bollocks about heritage. It's all to do with how awesome St. Patricks day is.

Makes about as much sense as that 'African-American' bullshit.

Which presumptuous fuck-schmuck decided to make that phrase the PC appellation for black people in the USA? A fucking retard, that's who.
 
What a loasd of old cobblers. St. Patricks Day is our national Holiday. It happens on March 17.
It is celebrated by the Irish diaspora world wide.
I for one dont care a whit what the Roman Catholic Church wants to do. Who cares ? This is Ireland not Rome.
Those awful days of kowtowing to the bullying of Roman Catholic rule in Ireland are done and dusted. And not a day too soon.

You don't get it Jay do you? We only have a St. Patrick's Day at all BECAUSE of the Catholic Church. Or would you like us to explain it to you in simple terms why we celebrate St. Patrick in the first place? Why we have the shamrock as the symbol of the day? You probably don't understand why wearing the colour green is so important either so may I suggest you do a bit of research and you might be able to get more out of the event than a hangover. FYI the Church never asked for the parade to be moved, just the date for the celebration of the religious element, which you are not obliged to observe if you don't want to so wind your neck in. I stopped going to the parade the day they introduced the flabby, big bottomed samba dancers. If I want to see celluite that close up I can look in the mirror.
Boy do I want to see your faces the day Sharia law is introduced into Ireland, you'll know all about oppression then...

Thing is, Ireland isn't even a Catholic country so it really is madness on madness.

St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin is in fact Anglican. There isn't a Catholic Cathedral there.

True story. Dublin is actually pretty much ultra-conservative.

If you've ever met a snob from Dublin, you will inevitably concur. Fuck, they are boring cunts to the max.

Good job they don't drink in pubs.

Stabbings would escalate exponentially.
 
The proper Catholic St Patrick's Cathedral is in New York.

So it's really the Irish-American Bishops who would make any definitive decision.

It would still be the 17th tho'.
