Michael Martin, traitor and leader of the most corrupt political party in Ireland, a party that is principally responsible for the destruction of the country, a party that never, ever condemns its own corrupt members like, for example, the criminal Haughey.
So it should have been easy for even the most inexperienced greenhorn journalist to completely destroy the hypocritical arguments put forward by this low grade politician when he tries to occupy the high moral ground in respect of Michael Lowry and the Moriarty Tribunal Report.
On his radio show this morning Pat Kenny failed abjectly in this respect.
Martin easily waffled his way around the weak and mostly irrelevant challenges offered by Kenny, for example.
Kenny accused Martin of hypocrisy given that Fianna Fail, who are now condemning Lowry, were more than willing to do business with him while in government.
Martin responded by saying that those dealings took place before the publication of the Moriarty Tribunal Report:
Every person before any tribunal is accorded the right to have their case heard by the tribunal and one does not sit on judgement on that until the tribunal reports.
The delivery of this cynical and dishonest argument was the cue for any greenhorn journalist to close the trap by simply putting it to Martin that Lowry’s reputation had been utterly destroyed years ago after the publication of the McCracken Report.
Kenny, apparently completely unaware of Lowry’s shady past involving tax evasion, lying and planning irregularities, let Martin off the hook by accepting his ridiculous argument.

Will be interesting to see the Sleeveen Steve Silvermint Squirm (jaysus some alliteration there!) when Mahon reports in the summer.
If the current Government have the bottle, they’ll hammer Meehole left, right and centre with the findings.
