Gonna be a feisty one methinks. Looking forward to seeing Eamonn Ryan weasel his way out of the statement the greens made this morning, january my a*se!!

fatalll · 22-11-2010 09:52PM

Tony Kileen...where was he for the last few years? :-)
Richard Bruton...sound man..and i aint a FG supporter...

Europe is laughing stock of the world
Ireland is laughing stock of Europe
Fianna Fail and Greens laughing stock of Government
and then Jackie Healy Rae and Mr. Lowry think we are all fools...just so we will vote for them...they say they are not supporting the Government.....
correction..I assume Michael Healy Rae....

Will All the politicians do something as a whole for the good of the country!!

at last..seen enough of him hehe

Fintan is sound..oh the debate begins...Go on hit him!
If it wasnt so serious it would be fun

Sardonicat · 22-11-2010 10:00PM

Richard Bruton is derailing this. Let fintan finish his point. The idea of a referendum to choose which method to impement the cuts is a good one.

telekon · 22-11-2010 10:00PM

Pat's right, Killeen's getting away with murder here. Just shut the gob, keep the head down and it'll all blow over.

Oh wait, he's awake. Brian Cowen's an "honourable man".:D

Test For Echo · 22-11-2010 10:01PM

Bored senseless of all the waffle at this stage so I'm not really paying attention, but what was the quip that Fintan said about pregnancy that got the audience chuckling?

omahaid · 22-11-2010 10:01PM

That was class - Tony Kileen says Brian Cowen is an honourable man and the audience started laughing, brilliant

Sardonicat · 22-11-2010 10:02PM

Same ole same ole. Prepered speel reeled off regardless of the question asked. Pat should not let him away with it.

Liam Byrne · 22-11-2010 10:02PM

Tony Killeen suggests that "Cowen is an honourable man" and the audience laughs....the look on his face was almost worth the TV licence!

Having failed miserably on that pathetic lie, he tries to pretend that Fintan O'Toole suggested Seanie Fitz as a candidate to run the country!

I'm surprised that Fintan didn't walk off the set in disgust!

Is there no end to the amount of lies and spin that an FF member will attempt ?

fatalll · 22-11-2010 10:02PM

"Keep yer heads"
what the hell, they lost their heads ages ago!!

F-Stop · 22-11-2010 10:03PM

Fintan's playing for applause, Tony's playing for laughs.

Edit: oops, wrong dude.

He'll probably be in the Queen's New Year honours list alright for his efforts to hand back the nation to her.

Yea, WTF was that about???

Just downright weird.

Yes. We have referendums on EU treaties and stuff to do with the constitutution. Surely what is happening now changes our constitution? We are accepting outside funding and letting outside agencies dictate monetary policy? Someone should challenge the constitutionality of it all. Is there a Ray Crotty out there to do this again?

omahaid · 22-11-2010 10:09PM

Its good to see some people suggesting political reform, we really should think about it and now's the time.

fatalll · 22-11-2010 10:10PM

Man in audience right...
reform politics
and get rid of half the politicians, elect business people

telekon · 22-11-2010 10:12PM

Political reform? The turkeys voting for xmas? Dont think so!

Only hope is the IMF reforming the system.

Sardonicat · 22-11-2010 10:12PM

electoral reform seems to be an issue amongst the studio audience and with the public at large, IMO. If one good thing can come out of theis disgusting mess it could be the end of clientelism and civil war politcs. Ultimately, that's up to us.

Happyman42 · 22-11-2010 10:13PM

Fair play Fintan O'Toole......maybe, just maybe!

Typical FF tactics - deflect from their f**kups by slandering and discrediting the opposition; it's been used by everyone from Ahern to O'Dea.

...but in such a random way? Just sounded mental tbh.

fatalll · 22-11-2010 10:14PM

"We do tic-tac on a regular basis"

Rishard about Labour and FG having talks... ;-)
thats a new one on me

Tic-Tac your word for today

telekon · 22-11-2010 10:16PM

Good poll question for once! I'd say the IMF/EU option will get over 60%.

Mr.Nice Guy · 22-11-2010 10:19PM

Silly poll question. If you asked people at the moment whether they'd prefer the country was run by an Irish government or a consortium of chimps using a spinning wheel to make decisions, most would say the latter.

To be honest, I'd fancy our chances of a better country with the chimps in charge!
