Drug dealer's excuses judged to be unbelievable

Drug dealer and crime boss John Gilligan was branded a loser and a liar in court recentl (Irish Independent).

Judge Kevin Feeney said evidence given by Gilligan that he won some of his money on the horses was implausible, incredible and far fetched. The judge rejected his excuses out of hand.

Bertie Ahern also gave evidence, under oath, that he won some of his unexplained money on the horses. To date, his excuse remains unquestioned.

Gilligan’s claim that he received a Stg4m loan from a Joseph Saouma was also rejected as there was no documentary evidence for the loan.

The criminal Haughey received a number of similar ‘loans’ from various businessmen for which there was no documentary evidence.

The State never saw the need to give these transactions any serious consideration.

The judge said sworn affidavits submitted by Gilligan were not just inconsistent, they were irreconcilable.

The DPP recently decided that Fianna Fail TD, Willie O’Dea had no case to answer for making a false statement in a sworn affidavit.

Fianna Fail under Martin – No change

Any politician who admits they were not aware of what was going on within the Irish banking sector in recent years is either a complete and utter fool or a barefaced liar.

Bertie Ahern qualifies for both of these titles.

The new leader of Fianna Fail, Michael Martin, has just admitted that he too was unaware of the situation in the banks.

Roll on the continued destruction of the most corrupt political party in the land.

Vicar: Bertie Ahern is an arrogant bastard

There was an angry reaction on Liveline to the traitor Ahern’s comments on the news today. Here’s a flavour.

He’s a parasite of the lowest order.

The man is an imbecile for belittling that woman.

You couldn’t even call him a man.

He’s an arrogant bastard.

I’d wring his neck if I got my hands on him.

He’s a nobody; no morals, no character. It’s good he made the comments because people will see what he really thinks of the people who pay him.

He’s a pimple on the arse of humanity.

This last quote is from Joan Collins, the woman Ahern belittled. Collins is a member of People Before Profit but the traitor didn’t know that when he made his comments.

Scumbag traitor Ahern gives his last interview

The scumbag traitor Bertie Ahern was interviewed outside the Dail today as the 30th Dail broke up (RTE News).

Journalist: Will you miss it?

The traitor: Well, kind of… (interrupted by angry citizen).

Angry citizen: People like us getting cuts in our wages and taxes and all that. Have you no shame, you’re on the TV the last two days mouthing out of yourself, you should be ashamed of yourself, shame on you.

The traitor: Thank you.

Angry citizen: No, not thank you, I’m fed up. I’m working and getting my pay cheque this week and getting less money, how dare you?

Journalist: That’s an anger that most Fianna Fail TDs are going to face.

The traitor: (Dismissive and insulting reply) I have to say, outside here, this happens every day. People come along here to try and get themselves on TV and radio.

Journalist: What’s your biggest regret?

The traitor: I would have loved if somebody; somewhere had told me what was going on in the banks in this country but nobody ever did, you get wise after the event. We didn’t get a proper national stadium, when I see little countries like Qatar and Kuwait talking about their tent stadiums and we never succeeded in getting one national stadium.

Hanafin: Bizarre and dishonest – just right for FF leadership

On the heave against Cowen.

I have always said that I would not be part of a heave against a leader of Fianna Fail.

Just days ago she took part in a heave against a leader of Fianna Fail when she voted against Brian Cowen.

On how her stance against Cowen might affect her leadership

It was either a win; win or lose, lose (situation).

Mmm…I wonder would that be similar to a lose/win or win/lose situation?

On Cowen’s resignation as leader of Fianna Fail but staying on as Taoiseach.

This weekend we now see that there is actually a difference between being leader of Fianna Fail and being Taoiseach so I think that position has been vindicated.

So Hanafin thinks her bizarre and dishonest logic is vindicated because of the crazy actions of a moronic/incompetent/power hungry Taoiseach even though Irish citizens are deeply ashamed at what the rest of the world is describing as a circus.

On how the public see her (bizarre and dishonest) distinction last week between being Taoiseach and leader of Fianna Fail

But this is not about last week, this is about next week and it’s not even about next week, it’s about Fianna Fail and the next election, it’s about Fianna Fail and the future.

Comment from a supporter of Hanafin for leadership of Fianna Fail.

She has a strong portfolio behind her and indeed in front of her.

Hanafin: Ruthless, arrogant – and stupid

Fianna Fail TD Mary Hanafin, one of the most ruthless politicians in the country, was challenged on Frontline (Monday, 17th Jan) on who she was backing in the heave.

Pat Kenny: Brian Lenihan has indicated that before the meeting tomorrow night he will indicate his thinking.

Hanafin: And I’ll do the same thing.

Later in the programme a caller made another challenge.

Tell Mary Hanafin to get off the fence…to show some leadership or backbone.

Hanafin put on her most arrogant face and dismissively issued a one word reply.

Amárach.

Hanafin was, of course, lying. She didn’t reveal who she was backing until it was forced out of her by media pressure on Wednesday.

Here’s a flavour of how this ethical/principles free politician responded to media questioning.

I was never going to be part of a heave, if there was going to be a heave I was not going to be party to that.

But you said you would address the parliamentary meeting and reveal your stance, you didn’t do that.

I think it was obvious to people that I would vote according with my views, so I chose to vote in secret.

I was not part of the campaign that was going on. It was a motion of confidence, it wasn’t a leadership contest, it wasn’t about coming out in favour of one person or the other. If it had been then I might have been active and actually canvassing for one person or another but it wasn’t.

So having not expressed confidence in the Taoiseach how can you sit around the Cabinet table over the next two months?

Because it wasn’t about confidence in the Taoiseach, the motion was very specifically about the leader of Fianna Fail.

Do you have confidence in him as Fianna Fail leader?

Yes I do, I’m a party person and I have always said whoever the leader of my party is I am very happy to support that person.

This level of hypocrisy, even by the extremely low standards of Fianna Fail, would be difficult to surpass.

Hanafin’s actions also demonstrate how operating within a corrupt political culture can reduce the political mind to pure stupidity.

Instead of retaining her credibility by openly and honestly challenging Cowen which would have put her in a good position to win leadership of Fianna Fail Hanafin opted for two more months of having her arse ferried around in a state car.

Gombeens in the political pigsty

Deep anger and utter disgust was my reaction to the moronic behavior of our gombeen politicians (from all parties) in our national parliament last Wednesday.

We witnessed a gombeen Taoiseach, supported by his gombeen party, slagging off a gombeen Opposition.

It was all fun and games with laughter all around as if this gombeen body politic had nothing to do with the absolute destruction of our country.

Our idiot of a Taoiseach was so impressed with his performance that he instructed his staff to email an internet link of his moronic behaviour to supporters.

Amid all the pigsty politics the imbecile revealed the contempt in which he holds our national parliament when, having triggered a laugh from his supporters at the expense of Enda Kenny, he declared:

It’s worth coming in here for half an hour.

So let’s be absolutely clear about what’s happening here.

Brian Cowen is a non entity; he’s nothing more than a drunken fool who managed to float to the top of a cesspool political party that operates within a corrupt political system.

His exit from politics will be a non event; the destruction of his corrupt party will be a non event and the succession of Fine Gael and Labour to power will be a non event because it will make little or no difference to what is urgently required before Ireland can become a genuine democracy – the complete destruction of our corrupt political system.

Cowen's last fan

For pure entertainment it’s worth listening to the giggling joy and admiration expressed by Sunday Times political reporter Sarah McInereny when asked by Matt Cooper what she thought of Cowen’s performance in the Dail last Wednesday (Today FM, podcast).

Positively exuberant, I mean I think he was just in the best form I think I have ever seen him in the last two and a half years since he became Taoiseach.

I mean everybody was looking at each other, it seems that the relief and tension of the last couple of days was spilling over into this joy really and excellent form really, he was laughing and looking at the press gallery and looking around the room and most relaxed I’ve seen him in a long time.

I think he’s happy to have the last couple of days over with and the tension and stress of the last couple of days.

I think everyone needed a laugh and everyone is willing to join in the laugh and have a bit of a good time.

Yes Sarah, we’re all going to have a laugh and a good time – On 11th March.
