Show me the money
Posted on | November 6, 2007 | 33 Comments
“You know something, boss?”
“What?”
“I’m not sure you should take that pay rise.”
“Why not?”
“Well, it’s just that most people think you don’t deserve it.”
“Fuck them. I haven’t had a pay rise in 7 years.”
“Yeah, but they don’t care about that.”
“Fuck them. What do they care about?”
“They care about the fact that the economy appears to be on the brink of a serious downturn.”
“Fuck them. Not my fault. I’m not the Minister for Finance.”
“They’re also concerned about the fact that the housing market, which has been the cornerstone of the most recent boom, is now static at best and even powerul estate agents can’t sell their own houses.”
“Fuck them. I’m not Minister for Housing. Do we even have a Minister for Housing?”
“I don’t know.”
“Maybe we should get one. I can blame this on him.”
“What about the fact that people are being told they have cancer then told ‘Ooops, sorry. We kind of fucked up there. You DO have cancer!!’. They’re not enjoying that.”
“Fuck them. Minister for Health. Or the head of the HSE. Or we’ll blame some administrator or something. Why do you think we have underlings?”
“Opinion polls in the Irish Times show support for the government is down 8 points since the election. The public aren’t happy.”
“Fuck them. It’s the Irish Times fault. That wicked old harpy in there is just out to get me. You can’t believe a word she and her loony-left paper says.”
“Old Arthur who drinks down in the local says he’s a little upset that the salary increase you’re getting is more than the pension he and his wife get combined for a year. And that your salary is already far higher than it should be and to take more money at a time when people are being told to tighten their belts smacks of Haugheyism.”
“Fuck him. He’ll be dead before the next election. I’m taking the money.”
“Fair play. You’ve convinced me. I would too. Make hay while the sun shines, eh boss?”
“Fucking right.”
“Some clouds on the horizon there though.”
“Fuck them.”

Only a few more years left of the above. Bless them. Cunts…

It smacks somewhat of Ferdinand Marcos, doesn’t it? I wonder how many pairs of shoes Miriam owns?

I just heard the cunt has proposed another pay review in three years. Not fucking happy with his current lot he wants more. Was he not quoted as saying he “does not care about money”. Lying fuckfaced weasel cocksucker. In his defence:
1) He doen’t live in a plush house like other world leaders
2) If any of us were offered a raise of 38K we would not turn it down
3) I am realing clutching at straws now, and could do with a bit of a hand….oh he is solely respoinsible for the Celtic Tiger

How come you’re surprised?
I would have thought “I’m ok Jack fuck them” is now the cornerstone of Irish society.
November 6th, 2007 @ 9:31 am
I’m not even slightly surprised.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, DEMOCRACY DOESN’T WORK, PEOPLE! Seriously though, this is a disgrace. With everything falling apart in this country, this shit has the gall to take this pay rise despite knowing that the public are already incredibly unhappy with how he’s performing. We had a boss who pulled something similar in work 2 years ago. We went to the other board members and had him sacked. Why we as the public cannot do this when it comes to our PUBLIC SERVANTS (which is what politicians are) is beyond me.

You can Pete its called an election
but you dumb fuckers reelected him,
So he rightly thinks eegets I can do what I like
and why shouldn’t he,
November 6th, 2007 @ 10:01 am
How long before that owl MacDara post in Berties defence ? The cunt. The only good thing he ever did was not saving princess Di. And I’ll bet he’s mixed up in the minor royal sex and drugs scandal.

The French would be up in arms. They’d down tools and take to the streets and protest, mabye burning a few cars on the way. What do we Irish do? We sit on our holes and let off steam in pubs or on blogs (no offence Twenty).
Until Irish people get out of their comfort zones and off their arses, join together and protest, we’ll have to put up with this shite forever more.
Governments will screw us as long as we let them. It’s our fault people, we let them away with it time and time again.
November 6th, 2007 @ 10:46 am
Jesus, you don’t want to end up like the French..thats mental talk. They protest at anything, and it gets a bit wearing after a while. They are also well known for burning lamb and that would end up with civil war, with Kerrymen up in arms that their sorce of entertainment was being torched.
You could of course not vote the hoor back in, but perhaps thats stretching the bounds of realsim too far.
November 6th, 2007 @ 10:56 am
he’s getting paid less than steve staunton was
November 6th, 2007 @ 11:00 am
But he got sacked when he didn’t deliver!!!!
November 6th, 2007 @ 11:04 am
[...] Major has another excellent take on the whole situation put as succinctly as Twenty could [...]

‘The French would be up in arms. They’d down tools and take to the streets and protest, mabye burning a few cars on the way.’
Ye thats so cool, why don’t we do that?
The french are total fucking cunts, worse than dolphins and owls
November 6th, 2007 @ 11:44 am
Don’t count me in with the thick fucks who reelected this fucking government. I know most people will go ‘well it wasn’t me who voted for em,’ but I actually didn’t vote for them. I’ve never voted Fianna Fail and never will.
November 6th, 2007 @ 11:47 am
Me either. Bunch of cuntbastarding wankhammers.
November 6th, 2007 @ 12:00 pm
ha ha guilty by association
sentenced to 4 yrs of Bertie and then 4yrs of his apprentice who ever that is

“The French would be up in arms. They’d down tools and take to the streets and protest, mabye burning a few cars on the way.”
The French usually protest sunny forecasts for the weekend. This is when they mount a sudden strike on Fridays so they have time to drive to their holiday homes. I’m not kidding.

Maybe it would work out better if “Berties Apprentice” was a reality show with Alan Sugar challenging contestants with games like “backhander or bust”. You could use game shows for other things like intead of tribunals costing millions of Euros, get Bertie on Jerry Springers Tell the Truth bollocks to ascertain his guilt. All in all, less farcical than the current situation.
November 6th, 2007 @ 1:20 pm
“The french are total fucking cunts, worse than dolphins and owls”
And their last bout of car-burning bollocks achieved exactly fuck all if I remember correctly. Same shower of cunts in power who could even teach ours a thing or eight about being shiftless, greedy, corrupt cunts. And as for the Italians, best not even go there…

I do remember Haughey getting peltsed with eggs and even paint though. Shame no one nowaday has even the bottle to do that to Bertie, if only for symbolism’s sake.
November 6th, 2007 @ 1:31 pm
What sort of sentence would get for throwing eggs at the Taoiseach?
November 6th, 2007 @ 1:57 pm
Dunno, but if he’s anything like John Prescott he’ll punch you in the head…..so watch that eye of yours if you go for it.
November 6th, 2007 @ 2:04 pm
“What sort of sentence would get for throwing eggs at the Taoiseach?”
Probably one with a lot of profanity and very few well pronounced ‘TH’s.
November 6th, 2007 @ 2:07 pm
You’d get clamped up in stocks and bonds and people would throw rotten boots at you.
November 6th, 2007 @ 5:16 pm
You’d be sentenced to spend your every waking moment chained to Louis Walsh, listening to Westlife, (who are all part of this Fianna Fail cartel,) therefore generating (more) money for Bertie’s family, and losing your sanity at the same time!
A fate worse than death.
Or as Bertie would say, a fete wurse dan dett.
November 6th, 2007 @ 5:20 pm
Did anyone read Vinne O Toole in the left wing rag about the pay rise and accountability. Spot on. Really highlighted the farse.
November 6th, 2007 @ 5:23 pm
The reality is “i’m of jack fuck the rest” as Paul said. Ya reap what ya sow. Fair play bertie, i’d fuck the ass of Celia and Miriam while at it!
November 6th, 2007 @ 5:51 pm
what the fuck have the owls done now?
November 6th, 2007 @ 7:02 pm
“1) He doen’t live in a plush house like other world leaders”
No, but he does have an official residence in Farmleigh Lodge that he doesn’t use, that was refurbished in 2005 by the OPW..

It’s not much, but its better than a cunting in the bastards.

Ah les pauvres Irlandais
Quels cons. Allez vous faire foutre !
Vive La france ! Vive la greve !
Vive Bertie et fuck you Jack
November 7th, 2007 @ 10:27 am
[...] Here are 50 ways his party, Fianna Fail, laugh at Irish voters. (via). Twenty Major elaborates on a possible discussion between Bertie and a member of Government. It’d be funny if it wasn’t based on fact. [...]

Guignol, va te faire sodomiser.
