    These guys never give up, do they?

    Then there was the time they hijacked Inda Kinny minutes before the leaders' debate during the last election with guys pretending to be journos about to break some (fake) scandal that would do for FG's election hopes, with the idea of rattling him before the debate. The great Bertie Ahern won that debate and the rest is history...

    Of course, I'm only assuming that the fake Fox News stuff is FFailure - it could be any of them, but FFailure have the form.

    I thought it was a joke because Barack Obama was accused of been racist a few years ago.

    I believe their term for an act of gross political stupidity is a 'Bush' (etymology unknown).

    We dont have to photoshop anything from Coughlan cause she actually does come out with some garbage. The picture is question has to be fake.

    The dying sting from a corrupt party whose cronyism, greed and incompetence eventually caused the IMF to come in, bye bye FF, don't let the door slam too loudly on your way out.

    What would you view as an "unusual" amount ?

    Given that 86% of the country is sick of them and their corruption and incompetence, isn't it understandable that an even higher percentage of the more politics-interested people would be likewise ?

    For the record : personally not a member of any party and the suggestion that I'd ever be "told" what opinion to voice and act that underhandedly is insulting.

    Ridiculous thread and not even a decent attempt at photoshop

    Did anyone see the photograph of the Nerds at FG using their laptops to infiltrate social networks? Its all the one to me cause I'll still use my 4 polling cards to vote for Willie O'Dea.
