    He seems sound; has a bit of an Irish accent and irishisms.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    This is a lovely lad. Notice the use of the word "integrated". He's got stuck in and fair play to him.

    That's a role model for positive integration.

    He has a very positive attitude

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me?

    The difference between this fella and the 'academic' last week is like chalk and cheese.

    A positive outlook on life and the circumstances that brought him to the country, but most importantly immersing himself into Irish culture.

    Sound fella.

    Tommy’s compassion is genuine and that is the difference between he and other chat show hosts.

    He threw himself into the community and didn't isolate himself and look to be offended or associate Ireland with American politics no wonder he did well
