    State of the nation address by Kenny. I'm out.
    I wouldnt bet on it sir. Right now people are just about scraping by. Everything has a limit.

    I don't get wanting the Germans in. I think they may just be in favour of us not burning the bondholders.

    Of course, the majority of these bondholders are German banks. So it's our duty as good little sheep to pay for their risky gambling.

    Maybe Constantin Gurdigev would be a start for finance minister. I''d want to suss him out a bit more first though.

    Edit: And Ming as a junior minister - purely because Ming would be great to be able to drag out and sick on people when necessary.

    Past that don't know. Health is an issue. I'd pick a working social minded consultant I think.

    I'd have to agree. I'll reserve judgement the speech rather than condemn him now.

    From the start of this crisis to the end of Fianna Fail in power we had a drunken gobsh!te as Taoiseach who was to inebriated to do anything other than stumble from the Dail bar to the chamber and back again (confirmed lately by one of his own party, one mammy o rourke). We had ministers denying everything about the crisis that the press was asking them to confirm up til the point that they had to confirm it due to unprecedented evidence - the arrival of the IMF comes to mind.

    Just another gombeen politician who would promise the Irish public anything to get a whiff of power.

    Someone who has never known anything except the state cheque.

    Fianna Fail gave us iodine tablets. I trust Fine Gael will issue the citizens with sick bags before the Taoiseach's address.

    I'm surprised people bought his 5 point plan bull-pats.
    He's more of an actor then a politician. If he's still taoiseach next term, I'll rage quit the country.

    Can't wait to hear it, I bet he blames all of our current problems on Fianna Fail at least - 5 times - if it is a ten minute broadcast.

    I know Fianna Fail is responsible for a lot of our problems but weren't his government voted in to do something about that?

    So far all they have done is sit around and moan about how it's all Fianna Fail's fault not theirs. It's getting a bit old now, we need new thinking and action not this crap, after all people voted for a change, so far there hasn't been much.

    No, they were just voted in because there was really no-one else to vote for. They're doing exactly what they were expected to do, which is absolutely feck all. We just needed a different bunch of gombeen arseholes to moan about.

    The address of the nation is no fixed abode.

    Exactly so we may as well have voted for Fianna Fail again. Different name, same agenda (by and large) - keep Europe sweet at any cost.

    I bet the recession is all a wind-up to take us down a notch. We'd gotten fierce uppity. This is the moment they'll announce a new EU grant for those who want money. A slush fund of 780 billion!

    FF have lost half their vote to SF. SF might sweep to power, FF won't.
