    That movie got me thinking...
    What if Cowan, Lenihan & Coughlan are all "Manchurian Candidates" in Irish political life.

    Has every decision they have made since the advent of the credit crunch been to the detriment of the Irish state and its citizens?

    Could their 'activation word' have been "Credit crunch"? :D

    If so, who is the shadowy organisation who have brainwashed our leaders to perform so badly?
    What have they do gain from our leaders crippling our country?

    If only there was some sort of Denzel Washington type FF backbencher who could uncover it all?

    does that mean that investigator (Charlie Bird maybe) has been brainwashed into assassinating Cowen to allow Lenihan take over...with Mary O'Rourke as the evil mastermind?

    Its my hypothesis, all three will take themselves out anyway, probably in some sort of televised Mexican stand off at an Ard Fheis.

    But they were just pawns for Irelands greatest enemies..... not the Brits.
    ..... the Vikings.... they never fully conquered Ireland, now they are back to finish the job.
