Comparisons of non-American parties to American ones are problematic, of course, but the Irish political system is reasonably similar to the American system of old in that the parties are differentiated primarily by Civil War allegiance rather than ideology. One major difference is that Fianna Fáil is a traditional government party, to which the United States has no analog.

People saying rightist parties in Europe would be considered liberals in the USA don't know Esperanza Aguirre, Cospedal, Arias Cañete, Vidal Quadras, Mayor Oreja, AZNAR, Maria San Gil, Francisco Camps, Carlos Fabra, Alvarez Casco (formerly), Ana Botella, Valcárcel, Javier Arenas, Alicia Sánchez Camacho... There are many who would support David Duke I think (MayorOrejAguirre)

David Duke is hardly representative of the American right, though.
