Some even have a weak game on the ditch, not management material, destined for ditch hurling. A lot happy with that too, make their living off of it, convince their listeners and advocators that because they can talk the game they should get something out of it. The manager and team out there playing the game, be it good or bad, while the ditchers talk away and pick up managers wages.

Welcome to boards political discussion where someone will criticise the government the government supporters response will be yeah but what about the bombs and Northern Ireland rather than trying to defend the position as to why the government have gone a certain way and around and around we go. Oh yeah and if you hold a different opinion to those government parties then be prepared to be called a shinner even if you have never voted for them.

I think FG picking up the slack left by FF and vice versa will continue but I also don't see FF/FG getting a majority any time soon. We'll likely have a mish mash next government. We need hear more from the like of the SD's, PBP etc.

Bishop of hope wrote: » Johnny or Margaret? Made my point in the post last night if you read it. Gaming or entitled, which is which. How does someone become entitled and how do you know whose entitled and whose gaming and isn't being entitled a bit of gaming even? Point today, if you can convince people you'll accept them as entitled and fight for their cause if they vote for you, then you're gaming. But you're the one picking up the cheque at the end of the day and your voters still aren't one more bit entitled. Its mad isn't it.
James Brown wrote: » So you genuinely meant Johnny Cash the singer was gaming the Irish housing system? It's highly unlikely Bish :rolleyes: I mentioned the crises. A poster inquired about Margret Cash. You followed with three questions regarding Margret Cash and if there were more like her. You answered none of my questions. Gaming is using a system in place. Cash did nothing illegal did she? So technically she was entitled. You are using Margret Cash and an undefined anecdotal number of others to say what about the housing/child homeless crises exactly? The analogy to politicians stands; if I throw up Lowry or Haughey etc. (numerous others) can I argue against giving politicians any monetary responsibility? Or do we try tackle and police the system better? My original point was rather than the traditional back and forth between FF/FG, some of the electorate went elsewhere, IMO, due to the record breaking crises.

It can be portrayed as that and loads of arguments that things could be better can be made.But going back to where we were 10 years ago it's a miracle we are where we are. But if you want to trap a chicken or pheasent, even though he is in a good feed field or yard, scatter a few seeds of oats along a dusty path he will follow that trail till he lands himself in your trap.
