    I don't mind her to be honest. She still retains a certain amount of dignity when she appears on these shows while most others don't.

    It's more annoying that RTE are still going on like the internet was just invented last year and social media is changing everything suddenly. Ye said that about Bebo five years ago lads, get over it.

    I'm sick of listening to her (so I change the channel), sick of hearing about her, and utterly sick of the fact that she gets paid to make all of these appearances on RTÉ and every other station in Ireland on which she appears.

    For those of you who forget, this is the same Mary O'Rourke who claimed in January 2008 that anybody who questioned Bertie Ahern's ethics was guilty of "treason".

    Words fail me why that individual is anywhere near the public airwaves, never mind paid for out of public funds for each appearance. She has sucked from the trough of Irish public finances for far too many decades now.

    Dignity you call it? God love her, she's useless and always was. How the likes of her was able to rape this country for a salary and pension for so long shows why we ended up where we are.

    I have to be honest with you, I've never seen her on RTE since she was a TD.

    Seen her quite alot on Vincent Browne on TV3.

    They should get rid of Craig Doyle

    Seeing her on TV annoys me so much. Words can't express my anger. I sincerely mean that.

    What the liikes of her and her party have done to my country. She is dispicable.

    She verbally abused my grandfather when she was minister for transport at a union meeting. According to the civil servants with her, this was not a once off thing. They were complaining about the dissappearance of large amounts from their pension funds during Haughy's time in office.

    What authority does she have to speak on either subject over and above any random drunk off the street :confused:

    There should be €1000 fine for anyone who uses the words dignity+honest+Mary O'Rourke in the same sentence!

    If she quit dyeing the head off herself she'd annoy me less.

    Only marginally mind.
