    Another money grabber getting out before the enforced pension cuts from FG in the next Government. Scum. The lot of them.

    Can we believe him?
    He assured the public that the IMF would not be asked for help and then they arrived within days!
    Any chance he would change his mind? "following an overwhelming response from my constituents. . . . "

    Good riddance. Any chance of a 100% tax on Oireachtas Pensions by the next Government? That would save a couple of bob.

    What other Fianna Failures will have shat their pants and ran away by the time the election comes?

    The ignominious departure of this góm is sadly testament to how our political establishment works.

    It encourages and actively rewards mediocrity whilst allowing the mediocre to progress upowards at an alarming rate.

    Whilst Dempsey and Aherne may well have been exposed as a prize pair of thicks over the IMF issue I prefer Dempsey`s political obituary to focus upon how he,unusually for a Politician,proved his own words to be pure-true......

    His statement after his return from holliers in Malta last January that "My presence in the country would not have made any difference " was most assuredly proven 100% true over the past month.....Raising the question as to what the state paid him for in the meantime ???


    And for an epitaph......???
