    Referring to the elected leader of the nation as a girl's name. How juvenile.
    More or less juvenile than constantly typing smug replies about being in Germany, working in finance, (from a bedsit in Galway)?

    The Red C opinion poll this weekend will be a genuine eye-opener for many of the outraged. It seems that a large segment of the voting populace think FG have done a very decent job. The fastest growing economy in Europe, record levels of people getting back into work, maintained core social welfare rates. Kenny will go down in the history books as one of the finest Taoisigh, Ireland has had. From an economic and social perspective.
    Wouldn't happen to be in receipt of tonight's euromillions there horse?

    If the Millward Brown poll is anything to go by, your optimistic predictions could be short lived.

    That's really bizarre. I wish I could hear everything before the cronies start jeering. Not his best PR moment anyway.
    Not as bizarre as him being happy.

    So why is he such a recluse? His answers last night were all coached and learned off. That might inspire you but I feel we would be better served by a leader with more backbone and charisma.

    I can answer that - Gotta love YouTube and how it recommends other similar videos.. another classic example of Enda's inability to relate to people...

    Highlight...

    Man: "1958 i was forced out of this country"
    Enda: "Good"

    Almost as bad as his performance in Galway above

    Enda has been in the Dáil for over 3 decades. When that homeless guy died nearby, he hit the streets and portrayed shock at the amount of people sleeping rough. I found that incredibly patronising. Had he failed to notice these people during his previous 30+ years in Dublin??

    So about as old as the joke in question then?

    It's not really political satire either. It's just a poor joke, just like most of these things (halfrauds , $ky etc) , the person in question just happens to be in Politics. Good political satire is usually, well, good.

    He does :confused:
