    callinan looks like Adolf Hitler with the hat on

    "Eh...mneh...yeah...*sigh".
    Only Vinny could get away with such incoherence.

    McFeely 'happy' with his building work.... At least someone is

    :p

    He like so many others "developers" should have stuck to playing with Lego

    Vinny is very quiet about this.
    Is he an old friend of Shatter or something.

    A similar demeanour too

    Don't forget Callinan has a Police force y'know ! His own personal police force

    yes.. he was soft on Paul Williams too previously

    Williams is acting like an 'honorary' Garda at this stage

    Actually interesting to read Matt Cooper (a respected journo) state his opinion that Shatter is as good as gone in his Sunday Times bit yesterday.
    What are the odds on him going?

    [fanciful]
    Who knows they might rustle up another Reilly omnishambles to distract us and offer James up as a sacrifice. He's as good as politically dead anyway.

    I think the queue of ministers today talking about his career is ominous for Shatter. Wouldn't be at all suprised if he slings his hook tomorrow.

    Years ago they all learned their trade in the same stable.

    The Shatter/GSOC story is running for three weeks now.In a real, grown-up country, both Shatter and Callinan would be gone long ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,160 ✭✭✭Callan57


    Anyone hear Denis Bradley on with Matt Cooper this evening? Well worth a listen to & a man who knows what he's talking about.

    Sneery Rabbitte himself was backing him fully until recently.
    And Noonan with his whataboutery was at it as well.

    Alastair Campbell's maxim of anything over 11 days in the media, you're toast.
    11 weeks is probably the Irish equivalent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,890 ✭✭✭tomdempsey200


    it'd take a bit to topple shatter

    the guys got serious bass neck

    That's what I mean...it was about the man and what he has done for the country not the issues.
    Sure sign that he is about to be pushed or has said he will fall on his sword.

    Regina is hopeless. FG ministers are cowards.

    Regina, Regina, Regina. Red Regina.

    Vinny doesn't seem to have the heart for this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,490 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    If that's the best FG could send out to bat, they're in quite a pickle :eek:

    On the contrary, he's devoted the last two weeks to this scandal.

    Have a goddamn enquiry, what harm can it do? Fine Gael doing everything to protect Callinan, I think that Garda McCabe is a very credible person, unlike Callinan.
