Wait wait wait... the woman who attributed the Theory of Evolution to Einstein and thinks the translation of green is "na glasarai"? Hmmmm maybe she is heading back to junior cycle in secondary school or maybe Cowen is a comic genius and thinks it will be hilarious to have someone who can't even answer basic Pub Quiz questions heading up the education department. Oh well I'm glad I am gone from the Irish education system now!

I hear her first move is to offically put an "e" at the end of potato and insist the corrector who failed her pass leaving cert exam re-examines it.
