Bertie Ahern-The Pro

Sungodbr · 03-09-2011 6:10pm #1

Denial, delusion, relationship breakdowns, deceit, lies, flagrant money wastage, claiming ownership that is not his, begging for money, selling himself to the highest bidder, has Bertie got a drug problem?

replace the "o" with 3 other letters

Sprrratt · 03-09-2011 6:12pm

No problem. I keep him well supplied

galwayrush · 03-09-2011 6:12pm

He's more of a deluded megemeloniac, ok, an extremely wealthy one.

You forgot his accountancy qualification and economics degree.

Althought he probably should get a degree for being economic with da trut.

Inner city Dublin constituency
Drug problem?

Taking after the locals I suppose

Eric Cartman · 03-09-2011 7:02pm

Everyone in AH is just begrudging the fact that they didnt have berties position and ability to talk his way out of anything. In the same position most AH'ers would have tried to do atleast half of what he did , but failed. One of the smartest leaders our country has ever had, like most irish people was self serving but fcuk it, he got away with it to the fullest he could. I personally admire the man to the fullest and say fair play. He played the game and became the outright winner, leaving his party, cowen, enda and dole scroungers to take all the blame for the minor mistakes he made that went out of control

Yes, but he finances it with his "winnings" from the horses, so it's nobody's business but his own.

gbee · 03-09-2011 7:11pm

Yes, and he also wins local raffles, he's one lucky SOB for sure, for sure, not unlike the Catholic Church who were not asked the right questions FFS.

Bertie, where did you get the money?

A dig out.

Bertie where did you get the money?

I won it on a horse.

Bertie where did you get the money?

those are violent crimes, different kettle of fish.

however if somebody managed to increase the interest rate on my grandmothers pension , provide my sister with a well paying job and then leave them in a position better than when they started but below the peak a few years later and call it a 'recession' then yeah id be ok with that

themadchef · 03-09-2011 7:16pm

There are few good thing about the recession but not being subjected to that smug little pricks face on a daily basis is one of them. Please let him just go away.

If we take the massive suicide increase as evidence, he is a mass murderer

7sr2z3fely84g5 · 03-09-2011 7:20pm

Everyone is to blame,they kept voting them in,but of course the big give-away budgets,some independent getting something done for their area,increasing welfare benefits,building roads etc all did a favour.

The whole FF party is to blame but more disgusting was the sudden retirements of ministers for the last election.

Looking back on it,seems a good waste,alot was spent on houses and other small projects,but no schools+prisons where built,to keep the public sec on the side they got their pay increases,but everyone took the increases because times where good.

Bottom line of it all,the whole economy was funded by cheap bank credit.

committing suicide because of the recession is a selfish, disgusting and irresponsible thing to do, its a different conversation for a different thread , but as much as the recession is to blame on some things, nobodys suicide should ever be blamed on or justified by the actions of politicians or the recession.

And then they bulldoze most of Limerick and my local council wan to do the same to Knocknaheeny.

We have some seriously sick people in the Civil Service who should really have been locked up in the mad house, except we closed that years ago ~~~

I think it's fair to say the local City or Town Hall is a viable replacement for the ill patient who were thrown out after these hospitals closed.

Correct on policticans,but on bankers yes it should be,i cant imagine how "their friend in the bank" has all sudden become an tormentor for debt whilst developers and bankers are walking around with the debt picked up by joe public.shocking stuff.

So, you would have the height of admiration for anyone who burgled your house and got away with it? I presume you also have the height of admiration for David Drumm?

I can only assume that your sister isn't a special needs teacher, that you don't have any autistic/sick children or nephews and nieces and that none of your grandmother's pension was tied up in bank shares or the stockmarket and that she is in good health and has no need of emergency services.

I assume that you also have no problem with paying your share of the €5 billion interest p.a. on the bank bailout while also watching the privatisation of all state assets oil/Coillte etc.?

But, you're right of course, Haughey,Burke,McCreevy,Aherne, Cowen et al.

A great bunch of lads.

Everyone is to blame how did you come to that conclusion? I never voted for them and know plenty other people that didn't vote for them. Just because they win an election doesn't mean that every voter in the country voted for them.

Everyone got the piece of the pie,the local civil servant got their payrise,housing estates where knocked down or rebuilt,roads where built,even the bone idle scoob got an increase in their dole *why did they even increase the dole during the good times baffles me.

The only new road/motorway that I use that was built is tolled, so I have no idea what you're on about.

I also don't qualify under any of your descriptions above, so I don't know how you conclude that that justifies the use of the word "everyone".

Please explain.

This quote is dripping FF gombeenism. Smart leader? Cute hoor more like it. But you don't let cute hoors run ANYTHING because they think they are so smart as to be infallible and ultimately make calamitous mistakes.

The fact of the matter is that Ahern is a miserable failure of a Taoiseach and will always be remembered as the leader whose policies ultimately bankrupted the country and led to IMF intervention. Jaysus, even the Corrupt Haughey never managed that!

The only thing Ahern has going for him is the Peace Process and even then his role is overstated. As is Blairs.

Albert and John Major deserve much more credit for getting the ball rolling on the whole process. As do the parties in the North, de Chastelain and other American politicians.

'Tea Boy' Ahern gets far too much credit for a small part he played.

Not defending CH by any means but in fairness if you tried to build a road with all the money he squandered on his charvet shirts, yachts and private island you wouldnt get very far.

Actually he stated (at a previous tribunal) that he didn't have one in Ireland.
I personally suspect he has one(s) beyond our borders. Maybe not in his direct name - as he was taught by the best at crookery and even Haughty lavished praise upon him for his capabilities - and thats saying something when the apple didn't fall far from the tree!

you do realise roads back in the day cost a tiny fraction of what they do now..

if they made the ring road around the big smoke in the late 70s/early 80s it would have cost a tiny amount compared to the trillion euro or whatever it cost fiasco it has become.

motorways were made in the uk when Ireland were driving along 10 foot wide boreens with grass in the middle.
