    Where does Michael D's beard sleep? Is there a spare room in the aras?

    They are all so bad that there really should be an option on the ballot paper for " none of the above" which would force another election with new candidates

    Yep, put him beside the 2 weakest candidates so he looks strong lmao

    Just to be clear, I wasn't being sexist. I meant he's at least closer in height to them, and his people didn't want him being towered by the male candidates, particularly Casey.

    The 2011 was weak to be fair

    Gay Mitchell : Poor
    Dana : poor
    Norris : poor
    MMG; his past was a hinderence
    SG: he sold himself well but was still
    Short on Higgins who cruised home

    He came second in a very weak bunch of candidates

    "That's nice Joan..."

    ..

    "So, Peter, tell us about the travellers"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,935 ✭✭✭randy hickey


    Absolute ****e talk here from Freeman.

    Horse**** and waffle.

    Somebody think of the children......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,527 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    "I'm the expert"

    Has no idea what to do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    Which generalization? Do you really think hed talk about travelers disproportionate crime rate, social welfare etc if he didt have the cold hard statistics on those matters? Hed get ripped apart. Truth is everything hes said is spot on and backed up with facts.

    No. He tarred erery member of the travelling community with the one brush, which is unfair

    Sad part of it all is Michael D will get another 7 years getting paid a 6 figure salary, essentially to do absolutely nothing.
    Keep his head below the line and then **** off after spending another 14 years of his life suckling on the teat of the taxpayer.
    Not that any of the rest are any better.

    5 million people and these are the 6 candidates?

    But that’s the job!

    What was she on about?

    I'm being serious


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,656 ✭✭✭Choochtown


    Freeman hasn't a clue

    EVERY school in the country has a "wellness" curriculum now

    MDH writing furiously... his memoirs?

    Someone just made the enemies list.

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,902 ✭✭✭KaneToad


    MDH dropped his pen ..this is comedy gold. Watching him try to pick it up with his foot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,736 ✭✭✭touts


    Joan is only there to promote her charity.

    Kind of a poor set for the debate, it's like 3 v 3 candidates.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,551 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com


    Joan avoiding the question on what services are offered by Pieta. GPs won't refer patients with moderate to severe mental health issues to Pieta.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,885 ✭✭✭✭MEGA BRO WOLF 5000


    What kind of salary does someone get for running Pieta House?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 29,728 ✭✭✭✭_Kaiser_


    And so did Mary Robinson and Mary McAleese live off the taxpayer !!! This is not new ! These expenses have been in place for presidents for decades !!

    You didn't answer my question


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,105 ✭✭✭✭spookwoman


    Listening to Joan she would have very one sitting around singing com bi ya
