Regina Doherty is talking through her Fanny!

Says David Norris.

Something fishy about this whole tail......

And Jobs Minister Richard Bruton has been compared to Hitler over claims he made about the upper house.

Fianna Fail senator Mary White said Mr Bruton – Fine Gael’s director of elections for the upcoming referendum on the aboltion of the Seanad – was spreading Hitler-like propaganda.

And Mr Norris criticised Regina Doherty, Fine Gael TD for Meath East and the party’s deputy director of elections, of “talking through her f****”.Mr Norris also called Ms Doherty’s comments about the Seanad “the Regina monologues”.

I suppose it's a bit like posters here with thousands of posts looking down on the new guys and dismissing their opinions.

I supported the initial abolition proposal however it has emerged from Prof. John Crown that any money that is going to be saved as a result is just going to be used for committees in the Dail to check legislation. Those who will be on these committees will be appointed by the taoiseach therefore negating democracy.

I am now ambivalent toward these proposals.

The Senate was never democratic, so losing nothing on that front.

It won't always be FG in power y'know. Are you sure you'd like to see the Seanad gone completely rather than well reformed? What about when FF or SF get into office, and have an over-reaching control of how the legislature operates.. with committees personally appointed by the likes of Michéal Martin or Grizzly Adams?!

I bet my bottom dollar that many of those who appear to be in favour of this move would soon change their tune if it was another party instigating it.

Jaysus, Norris is fairly on the warpath these days.

Seachmall · 15-07-2013 05:56PM

I knew a girl who could make grunt noises through her fanny, with some elocution lessons that could've been an impressive feat.

strandroad · 15-07-2013 05:58PM

DN is witty but also obnoxious. It hardly supports his argument to keep the Seanad if what it's used for is to publicise such language.

I assume it's because this may be his last chance to stand-up as forcefully as possible against Government proposals given the fact he might, despite his optimism, be walking down the warpath and up the footsteps of death's door.

Brazzian Fart Porn is where it's at or so I'm told

seligehgit · 15-07-2013 06:31PM

Can't wait to cast my vote to abolish the Seanad!

15-07-2013 06:38PM

When do we get to abolish the government?

hotmail.com · 15-07-2013 06:39PM

Norris has gone mad. I think there's a sense of relief that he wasn't elected president.

bop1977 · 15-07-2013 06:45PM

Why is the word fanny starred out?

15-07-2013 06:49PM

It can mean vagina and vaginas are extremely offensive.

I would be more in favour of reform.

If the referendum to abolish the Seanad is defeated I speculate that the peoples verdict will be used as a means to put any meaningful reform on the long finger.Over how long a period of time have we heard empty talk about proposals to reform the Seanad?

Doctor Strange · 15-07-2013 07:59PM

If we had more politicians like David who actually stand up for people and what they believe in, we wouldn't be in this mess.

c_man · 15-07-2013 09:40PM

I'm sure if it were any other politician who said it, this thread would be overrun with people calling him an ass for those comments.

tommyboy2222 · 15-07-2013 09:46PM

He gets a pass cos he's David Norris. He can say and do what he likes apparently.

It seems worse than "lapgate" a consensual sitting on laps rather than a mysogonistic rant referencing the vagina.

But he's left wing so grand.

A damn sight more that a lot of the folks that post around these parts, I reckon.

He has terminal liver cancer. There's a good chance that he's either in a lot of pain or on a lot of medication. He was on Miriam O'Callaghan's show last week and some of his language was... out of character. I think people should cut him some slack.

in fairness he has a long political career behind him and has spent many a long day and night in the same room as some of our ministers and TDs.

So on that basis alone, I'd say possibly more than any leading gynaecologist on the island.

Is it ok to refer to anyone as an aids-riddled arse bandit with pedophile tendancies?
