Fianna Fáil TDs, Senators and MEPs grabbed more brown envelopes donations last year than any other party in the Dáil.
They raked in almost €520,000!
Poor old Enda Kenny’s flock pulled in a mere €130,000 plus.

A young child’s good kidney was removed in “a significant and regrettable medical error”, according to Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital.
Instead of taking out the diseased kidney they took out the healthy one!

Although I’m a great believer in the European Union I will be voting NO to the Lisbon Treaty.
The Lisbon Treaty, I believe, is not good for Ireland. It will interfere with our autonomy and wear away at our identity.

Poor old Bertie Ahern is complaining that there is something wrong with a system that allows a row between two property developers continue for 11 years.
While speaking about the Mahon Tribunal this morning he said that the law governing this area is a “load of nonsense”.

It’s hard to believe that the Northern Ireland Peace Deal is 10 years old today!
The ‘Good Friday Agreement’ was reached on the 10th of April 1998.
It took nearly two years of talks and 30 years of conflict to get to this historic day.
Happy anniversary ….. and many more of them (fingers crossed).

John Gormley is using footage of Michael Collins and Eamonn de Valera to encourage us plebs to play our part in combating climate change.
He believes that taking action on reducing our carbon footprint is every bit as important as other some of the other major historical issues that have affected our country in the past.
He compares combating climate change to the issues of emigration and independence that have faced our country in the past.

Paddy died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him.
He asked, ‘What are all those clocks?’

Bertie - brazen, brash, a bollix!
I have to acknowledge that he did a lot for the country. But, he has to acknowledge that all that counts for nothing because of his wheeling and dealing. He is nothing but a common crook.
If he was in any other job he’d be gone long go. Arrogance on his part allowed him to survive longer than he should have. Complaceny and lack of moral etiquette of his party colleagues and Government partners also contributed to his holding on. (PD’s and Greens - enjoy it …. next time out you’ll not be heard of again!)
And then comes Cowen ….. What a great mug to have showcasing our country! Going by his bullish behaviour in the Dáil he’ll be no better!

Micheál Martin has ruled himself out of the race to become the next leader of Fianna Fáil.
He declared his support for Brian Cowen to replace Bertie Ahern as leader of the Fianna Fáil party while praising his former boss on RTE’s ‘Morning Ireland’.
Sorry Micheál ….. Bertie ruled you out of the position years ago when he moved you into the Health portfolio.
You were getting too popular as Minister for Education …. Education was on a high …. Bertie got worried ….. moved you to Health …. you made a mess of that portfolio. You’ve been on the periphery of power since.
There was a time when you’d have made a credible Taoiseach …. but thanks to Bertie’s games you’ve lost more than your hair as a result!
Lap up to Cowen ….. you’ll be alright then!
