Do you know why a Politician is like a good pint?
After you fill the pint with brown stuff, it starts to empty.
After you slip the politician the brown envelope, it starts to empty.
and you just can’t keep either of them filled up 😉

Dublin, second city of the British Empire
I was watching a historic program the other day, and was amazed that Dublin was considered the Second City of the British Empire, Second to London! Very interesting, so, in fact the people who pride themselves on being Dubliners are really (secretly) proud to be from the second city of the British Empire 😉 and not really Irish at all :-0
Maybe that is why they continue to believe that corrupt politicians are the norm, and continue to vote for Bertie, better the devil you know, Eh!
The crook’s Team
I am amazed at all the campaign posters with Bertie’s photo on display, advertising all the other crooks on Bertie’s team. I’ll bet a lot of Fianna Fail politicians are wishing they hadn’t become associated with the Chief Crook and bottle washer 😉
Please Vote for me because…
Please Vote for us because …
Because I did not take bribes (don’t you believe him?)
Because I don’t burn cars, sell drugs, or support crime (don’t you feel safer?)
Because I don’t keep patients waiting on gurneys (just don’t get sick!)
Because I’m not continuing with stealth taxes (I can feel that extra change in my pocket)
Because I won’t shoot my foot off (I’m from stab city)
we won’t continue to give away public land to private Hospital developers as the next step in privatizing health-care
we won’t give away more public services like Eircom, and Aerlingus.
we won’t build and give away more public roads and bridges to NTR
we won’t continue to support monopolistic private businesses like VHI,
Eircom ( want to buy some shares?), NTR, etc
And above all, We will restore the Freedom of Information act, and become truly transparent!
How Sinn Féin could win the election.
If Sinn Féin wanted my vote, they would blowup the Toll booths on all the Irish toll roads. Particularly after NTR boosted the rate for autos to 1.70 Euro just before the Easter Bank weekend. After only 6 months in operation on the M7, this would make a 6% increase, and if that were to happen again, 12% per year. And we don’t live in Rip-off Ireland?
Why would we continue to have Finna Fail spend public funds for roads only to have their friends at NTR reap the profits from the very people who paid for the roads.
Maybe blowup could be a bit strong, but you get my meaning. Maybe a bit of St. Patrick, and drive the snakes out of Ireland.
