    He wasn’t wronged, he was caught. Simple enough. He must be down to his last few millions or is having gravey withdrawal symptoms.

    Fianna fail seriously needs to take a long look at its self if it thinks it is a good idea to put this crooked snake on the ticket. Then again fianna fail is a haven for corruption, chronism and nepotism. If fianna fail had any ounce of self respect the party should fold after what they did to the irish people.

    Our politics could do well without people like himself and Flanagan, dinosaur politicians elected by narrow minded gombeen locals who aren’t the brightest sparks who have no interest or knowledge in anything but their backwards arsed rural locality, and when these idiots get into national politics, unfortunately it affects and holds back the progress of the whole nation.
