    I heard that some FF minions/canvessers are traveling with minders trying to blend into the background in case that someone tries to do a Chuck Norris and KOs one of them. Dillie O'Wee is getting ****ed out of it down in Limerick, everywhere he goes he gets an ear full. I can't see them keeping this up for a month lol.

    Those kind of people are a small minority now. I meet a lot of people and the one thing they have in in common is their hatred of FF. The wool has come off peoples eyes bigtime.

    I wouldnt either. Bertie was up in Donegal a few months ago and you could sense serious tension in the air. A lot of broke, jobless and very angry people around.

    It is surprising it can go anywhere at all without getting lynched.. Then again, he travels around with minders.

    People are two faced.

    Sure a polictian can be the biggest liar, corrupt, back-handing recieving bo**ox and you'll get some people calling him a lovely man. While it certainely isnt as many now as alot have turned against them, its also certainely not as few as one would think.

    Seems to have some bit of truth in Limerick at least:
    Limerick Leader Story wrote:
    A Fine Gael canvasser this week claimed Fianna Fail would be lucky to escape with a tongue-lashing and that "things are now so bad that people are actually arming themselves".

    "We were out canvassing in Janesboro and a 75-year-old man came to the door with a stick in his hand asking 'Who are ye?' The stick was for Fianna Fail, who he had voted for all his life."

    Am I the only one who'd pay good money to watch an OAP beating an FF canvasser with a stick? :D

    A few questions like so.

    Part 1 abuse the **** out of them

    Part 2 listen to them, if you smell **** abuse them


    Are you FF . If yes go to part 1.

    Did you vote , the budget threw ? If yes part 1 if no next question

    Did you vote , the finance bill threw ? If yes part 1 if no next question

    Did you vote , the 30 kph threw town threw ? If yes part 1 if no next question

    Do you smell **** ? If yes part 1 , if no next question

    Did you vote confidence in Finna Fail ? If yes part 1 if no next question

    Did you vote confidence in any budget in the last 3 years ? If yes part1 , if no next question ...

    And so on till you get a , Yes to move to part 1 then you can let loose , in this time you will smell ****e and go straight threw to part 2 . In fairness any Polictal figure that comes to my door is going to get an awful time.

    Thanks but there's a button for it. Only joking, I get a rise out of spelling incorrectly and seeing people disband into other realms about ones spelling.

    And I am agreeing that everyone should take the piss out of them, just use my questionnaire and your on your way ..

    I'd love to have frontrow seats to see Brian Cowen canvassing and getting "Chuck Norrissed"... the actual canvassers in the field not so much. Think they'll have a tough job for years ahead sitting in the opposition, actually having to come up with smart ideas for a change...
    From what I heard, the first thing people say to them when they open the door to a FFer is "Jeez, you're brave, very brave" :D
