They absolutely love him over here. He visited a town called Moneygall which is apparently an ancestral home of his (bulls++t) and they opened a service station a few years later called the Barak Obama Plaza! Ridiculous stuff altogether. I quite like him but the Irish are just milking it. You see loads of bumper stickers on cars with 'is feidir linn' written on them. That's 'yes we can' in Irish.

This is pretty cool though http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moneyga...t_of_stout.jpg
