Her mother's from Charleville, Co. Cork and her husband has just been sworn in as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. I can't get over the fact that the Irish media hasn't picked up on this yet. (Full disclosure - I know this woman's extended family and have stayed in the house she and John Roberts have an one eighth interest in down in Knocklong, Co. Limerick. I didn't know all that when I wrote this.). I didn't see one reference to the Jane Sullivan's Irish connection in the Irish Independent, Irish Examiner, or the Irish Times.
I can't help wondering if this is a sign of waning interest in Irish-America or simply embarrassment at the Bush connection.
