Conor Lenihan on Vincent Browne tonight

Slideshowbob · 21-01-2011 12:47AM #1

Where is the anger and venom coming from?

Why does he suddenly become principled when he sat there comfortably watching Cowen leading and making mistakes for the last few years?

He was very silent up until now.

Sir Oxman · 21-01-2011 12:47AM

There's an election in 50 days.
That's why.

Flimbos · 21-01-2011 12:51AM

Exactly. He's off on the campaign trail already. He's just quicker off the mark than some.

Slideshowbob · 21-01-2011 12:52AM

Some real wrath there!!!

Surely he wont keep that up for 50 days?

the groutch · 21-01-2011 12:54AM

people won't forget his support of Biffo for the last 30 months THAT quickly

gandalf · 21-01-2011 12:54AM

After that outburst and the others earlier Cowen will have to fire him in the morning. One more down. I have a feeling this Government will not last the 50 days.

He is one of my local TD's (for the moment

)

Not in Dublin South West anyway...he'll need to learn how to sprint considering the opinions some of his constituents have about him!

His brother got the Dad's name and whatever familial intelligence was going?

Got it in one. Just when I thought it simply couldn't get any worse we have this debacle. I just want them out, and I'm not even fussy how this is achieved, any longer. They are making a mockery of Ireland on the world stage.

lugha · 21-01-2011 12:58AM

Never mind Crazy "i'm naming no names" horse.

Hash Vin-B going toe to toe with Dan was the feature brawl of the show, the day even.

bleg · 21-01-2011 12:59AM

Ha! He's going mad. Does anybody believe him?

gandalf · 21-01-2011 01:00AM

Vincent is going to need a toothpick after chewing up Conor Lenihan !!!!

Conor is having a major mickey fit here, he knows he has lost his seat.

Sir Oxman · 21-01-2011 01:00AM

FFS the second nervous breakdown on the show tonight!

zig · 21-01-2011 01:00AM

scrap

ac08400 · 21-01-2011 01:01AM

geez, he's a dope!

mickdw · 21-01-2011 01:01AM

Well neither of the brothers are talking to Cowen now. I figure Brian Lenihan had to back Cowen just to side step Micheal Martin to leave leadership position for himself. With Martin tucked away for the time being, Both brother will hit Cowen now and take him down.

muletide · 21-01-2011 01:01AM

Think Conor won that round

Like **** he did! I hope someone in the studio knows CPR.

This is absolutely hilarious. Vincent is the ultimate troll. Doubt lenny will come on this show again.

PomBear · 21-01-2011 01:05AM

lol, he's sending his brother down the river now. He'd sell his granny for a few votes...

gandalf · 21-01-2011 01:05AM

LOL he is disappointed in his brother! Another bridge goes up in flames! Mammy O'Rourke is probably going ballistic now!

sink · 21-01-2011 01:06AM

Even though it was pure electioneering Conor Lenihan sounds like he was speaking the truth for once. He has basically taken the greens side of the argument against his own parties leadership. I don't think he would be doing that if he didn't believe it to be true. Why would someone so blatantly attack their own if there wasn't some truth behind it. Cowen will have to sack him.

Angry or not, he seems to be loving it to be honest.

the groutch · 21-01-2011 01:07AM

yer one can't even look him in the eyes

Judgement Day · 21-01-2011 01:08AM

Jeez, gone fierce quiet now. I wonder will Vincent throw some petrol on Dan Boyle again before lights out?

If he is telling truth now, he has ignored it the last 2 years

Well the games up now, he's got nothing left to gain by staying quiet and everything to loose by gallantly going down with the ship.

ignoring is right, i still think he believes what hes saying,i.e. hes fairly clear in his point, he agrees with their policies regarding bank guarantee etc, he had nothing but praise for Cowen in that aspect, but just the last few days have been a disaster.

He actually scared me tonight - came across as a psycho

From livid to laughing in 60 secs - is that the capability of normal people??? This is a serious question if anyone can answer

user2011 · 21-01-2011 01:13AM

LOL!!! HE wants a leader for this country:rolleyes: has the people of the country not been crying out for a new leader/a new government this past year and half too two years??? My god and also wasn't this guy always standing up for this government before the Greens in November decided they were pulling out in January then he disappeared off the airwaves.. I can't wait too stroke the pencil across the voting paper. The day can't come quick enough

Conor Lenihan on Vincent Browne tonight
