Irish, Scots-Irish, and Southern

Posted by Bob on September 25th, 2009 under Coaching Session


I got some comments on “Me and the Irish” that made me want to make some points that people today are not exposed to. Pretty random, but interesting at least to me.

It is true that the “Scots-Irish” are not Irish, but Scot Protestants who lived in Ireland for generations and then moved to America. That does not mean, though, that they are not Celtic. Gaelic, aka, “Irish” us spoken in large parts of Scotland because of a combination of words you don’t hear much: Irish Imperialism.

Back in the first millennium, the Picts controlled a huge part of Scotland. They spoke a language just as Celtic as Gaelic, in the same way that Italian is just as Latin as Spanish, but Pictish was a different language, just as Italian is different from Spanish. The Irish conquered that area and today its Gaelic is the same as Irish Gaelic. By the time of Cromwell a lot of the Pictish blood was in the Scots who went to Ireland as enemies.

Another thing that is forgotten today is that in New England the inferiority of Southern blood was explained by the heavy admixture of Celtic in it. You can still see some of that in Mencken.

The Buckleys always correct people and insist they are “ANGLO-Irish.” In the Southern Partisan in the 1980’s, Bill Buckley’s brother wrote a vicious column about Irish blood that offended my friend Doctor Shanty deeply.

Most people wouldn’t understand these complications today. The Scots Irish were not Irish, but they were heavily Celtic. Those Scots Irish were sent in to crush the wild Irish and then they went to America. The poor Indians didn’t stand a dog’s chance against the product of all that.

Both Calhoun and Jackson were prototypical Scots-Irishmen. In fact, they looked so much alike that in Europe their portraits would get mixed up. If I were an Indian, I wouldn’t want to run into either one of them in a dark forest.

    It is true that most people in America wouldn’t understand these complications today.

    But the conceits of the Buckley’s have a contemporaneous meaning that shows up in the British National Party carrying the resentments of Britain’s “Celtic fringe”.

    Nor are these kinds of complications lost upon the elites of Asia who have sensitivities to intra-racial nuances unbelievable to most Americans, the curse of “village feet” delivering a goodly number of people into slavery this very day.

    Do not cue in Mommy Professor who wants to pretend that race and its nuances aren’t for real. Let her go on kidding herself her Established Religion can abolish them.

    Weren’t the Picts the ones that Hadrian’s wall was built to keep OUT? As for the Buckleys, I don’t think that the Norman’s would have given them the time of day, as they becames the elites later on. I think all these things are interesting because they LEAD somewhere. A blended brown race leads NOWHERE.

    I have sympathy for Obama believe it or not because I too am a product of a mixed race marriage. Father from a family of borderlands English and a mother from New England Tory blood via the Danelaw/Puritan background (they skipped off to Canada to avoid getting tarred and feathered during America’s last good war). The conflicts in my own life because of this genetic inheritance is why I am a “racist”, because race (genetics matter) for good or bad, you cannot escape it no matter how much PC dogma you spout.

    Speaker John McCormack had a sad childhood. His Irish Catholic father died when he was young. That was the story he told all his life. But a biographer unearthed a different tale. His Scots-Irish Protestant father from PEI deserted the family and lived to see his son, who would never acknowledge him, sitting in Congress. His immigrant mother was born in America. A fascinating story of the Celtic differences and political subterfuge. In its own way it explains why in Washington his closest friends and allies were more often Scotch–Irish from the Southern Highlands than big Northern city ward heelers. This story rocked Boston a decade or so ago.

    The intro is a bit over long, Bob, but you will enjoy it.
