Ahern mulling presidency bid

CHARLIE TAYLOR
Former taoiseach Bertie Ahern today defended his role as leader of the country and admitted he was interested in becoming president of Ireland in the future.

Yakult

no thanks..

Random

we might as well put in someone who's got entertainment value!

Drumpot

Would it not be great for him to go for the role and be completely destroyed ? Surely that would be more satisfying to some then seeing him continue to go around like he never did anything wrong ?

Donkey Oaty

Hookie will stand against him.

That should be fun.

TheZohanS

Fùck off Bertie.

gtfo

My name is URL

He really is one deluded fcuking dipshit

Kasabian

Does the President have to have a bank account?

I hope he runs and gets the rejection he deserves , I fear the opposite . Stupid people will still vote for stupid.

Banned Account

If by President you mean "prison" then yes I agree - 'Bertie for President'

Banned Account

Actually, while we're at it can I have Ivor Callelley for Minister of Finance? I really think he might be able to get a few bob off the EU, IMF etc

Do we really want to give him seven years to finish the job?

We know he screwed the country in the arse and I certainly wouldnt like to see him in this job.

eimearcmh

Katherine Lynch for President!!
There's even a Facebook page:P

Ulysses Gaze

No

The worst kept secret in the world.

Ahern will still pull in a respectable tally but is unelectable now. He'll have to pray that FF pull off an economic miracle for him to be able to get even near the Aras.

Delighted the scumbag's legacy is mud.

Sure Bertie must be alright he drinks Bass..

phasers

I'd vote for him.

But sure I'll vote for anyone.

I meant, let him run for the presidency and fail miserably . . Surely he wouldnt beat anybody to the position !

The Highwayman

Bertie can stick it up his Áras.

Who would vote for that ***ker?

kincsem

"Bertie in the Aras e ".

No thank you very much.

ejmaztec

Bertie's one of the many people in this country with the Giraffe gene, or thinks that we've either all got amnesia or don't care what he's been up to.

I've said it before, there are people stupid enough to vote for the little bollox.And he has the pet hacks to do the PR for him. Sickening.

No we can't.

amdublin

I swear to god if that gangster runs for President I'm taking to the streets to protest.

There are stupid people out there who will vote for him. We cannot let this happen.

AckwelFoley

yea, id vote for him.

*ducks*

Kasabian

Is there any Harvey Oswald's in the phone book?

Berty

Thanks for thinking of me but I'll pass.

Yes, well this is the reason the rest of us are reluctant to protest, who wants to be associated with the hard core groups that hijack these protests. (want an explanation of which groups I mean?=check out any of the recent Tony Blair book signing threads).

He should be in prison. End of. Bertie Aherne is epitome of Scumbag for what he did and did not do during his tenure. The very fact he is swanning around courting the media dreaming up more delicious ego fulfilling stuff like being president is just abhorrent to people.

Yeah you're right. And I certainly don't want to be associated with any hard core groups. I'm thinking more peaceful silent protest......something has to be done or he will slither his way in!!!!

Logical Fallacy

Prick would probably win the ****ing thing knowing our beloved Isle.

Mister men

He's wasting his time and our's. Sling your hook Bertie.

Paparazzo

As sad as it is, loads of people would vote for him. Sure on Joe Duffy today there were plenty of callers defending charlie haughey

Bertie would get votes but not enough to become President. Who can blame him for going because he knows he has people that would vote for him regardless of what he did.

ejmaztec

Next time I see him, I'm throwing This at him, there's no point making a simple gesture.

up for anything

Mr Ahern said it was "a crying shame" that plans to build the so-called 'Bertie Bowl' did not proceed and described it as one of the worse mistakes to occur while he was taoiseach.

I cannot believe he said this. WTF!!! He is beyond belief. I hope I live long enough to see him buried, and arthritis not withstanding I will do what that youtube guy did on Haughey's grave except I will score all 10s and not 3.1s and 2.9s like dancing guy did. In fact, I will dance on Haughey's grave as well on behalf of my mother who isn't that spry any more.

That comment has made my blood boil in a way none of the rest of the mess has done and that is saying something.

If you want peaceful protests put us mothers at the front. We are well used to keeping order and I'll kick the shite out of any little bollix who tries to make trouble.

But I think at this stage I am gone beyond peaceful protest and would like to show my rage and hatred in a different way* for the fuckers, who by the way I didn't vote in, who aided and abetted us into this mess and who are now telling us to eat shit instead of cake.

Ah ! ça ira, ça ira, ça ira

It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
aristocrats to the lamp-post
It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
the aristocrats, we'll hang them!
If we don't hang them
We'll break them
If we don't break them
We'll burn them
It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
aristocrats to the lamp-post
It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
the aristocrats, we'll hang them!
We have no more nobles nor priests

Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine.
Equality will reign everywhere
The Galway hure shall follow him
Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
And their infernal Golden clique
Shall go to hell
It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
aristocrats to the lamp-post
It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine
the aristocrats, we'll hang them!
And when we'll have hung them all
We'll stuff a spade up their arse

God, weren't the French gas people. Awful altogether.

*Isn't the price of petrol a fecker!

Darlughda

No, the man didnt 'rob' yer money.

He managed to get shooe inned to power, at the right time, being the jammie bastárd that he is, then proceeded to ride the crest of the wave that was nothing to do with him, and buried himself in corruption and everything that is abhorrent to the idea of justice, social equality, and what in the long term could be good for a country.

All Bertie lovers are into the celebrity what is the best thing to be seen in vaccuous society.. etc. Despicable half wits, in my opinion. Xfactor enthusiasists who lack brain cells. To say the least.

Nonetheless, various half wits like to extoll the virtues of Bertie because they could not believe their luck.

Well you keep reading the princess cecilia novels because that is the fiction you live in.

Good news for some!

David Norris will probably run, too.

Not that his sexuality is anyway relevant , I reckon he would be a good President.

What title does the male partner of a president have ?

Handsome Bob

You know I wouldn't put it the past the electorate of this country to make him president, the amount of dip****s I hear saying "Bring Bertie back!" is unreal. It's as if the recession magically happened once Cowen took over, forget about the previous decade that led us to this point why don't you. :rolleyes:

I didn't realise we got to vote for president in this country? I wouldn't vote for him but that's ok. Even in these shítty times there's still enough FF gombeens hiding in their closets to make sure this scumbag gets in by a landslide.

mikerowsopht

ah now c,mon. that money was just resting in his bank account

do we vote for the President of Ireland?
I'm 25 and don't ever remember hearing of a vote for President, so how do they get elected?

Well considering McAleese assumed office in 1997, you wouldn't have been old enough to vote for her. Probably why you don't remember it.
