NAMA debate

Posted on | September 16, 2009 | 55 Comments

Have been watching this all afternoon.

Lenihan’s proposals and performance laughable. Using quotes from Obama pathetic and people were actually laughing at him in the house. He was heckled like a shit stand-up.

Richard Bruton and Joan Burton have essentially ripped the whole plan apart.

It’s clear that neither the government or NAMA have the slightest bit of credibility.

    Lenihan is watching a car crash, and we are the occupants.

    Is it really 2-0 to Std Liege? I’m in a Belgian hotel room just after turning on the telly so maybe it’s just propoganda. Arsenal can’t really be that shit, can they?

    Bastards – the second Arsenal goal should never have been allowed – off side a mile – and the third one was questionable as well!

    So stop NAMA by getting the Government out.

    Get the gov. out by Voting No to Lisbon.

    The country has just been pawned and you’re talking about fucking football.

    No wonder we’re fucked.

    Rumour going around that the Greens might vote against NAMA.

    T’would be final irony if The Bull had the deciding vote. His red rubber neck would expand to fill the entire Dail chamber and the contents of his 5 star, limo-driven, smug, sleeveen, self-satisfied belly would explode in one last glorious technicolour stroke.

    For the honour of the country. Naturally.

    C’mon now, at least V’s intentions are good. You might not agree with his strategy, but really, does it matter one way or the other?
    We’re still fucked, and if you think the Lisbon Treaty (or NAMA) is going to save us, you’re the idiots.

    ABSOLUTELY!!! AND THEY ARE LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANKS (FULL OF THE PEOPLE’S MONEY, NOT THEIR OWN OF COURSE – THEY JUST USE IT FOR ‘EXPENSES’)

    anyone who votes no to Lisbon for any reason other than they think its a bad treaty/deal for Ireland needs a slap.

    Ibanez – Bang on!

    All the Coir/Shinner/Libertas Nazi scare tactics cannot distract from the fact that while Lisbon is not going to switch a magic prosperity rainbow on for Ireland,not voting it in as some sort of Fuck You to Fianna Fail is akin cuttin your foot off with a chainsaw because you have a Long Big Toenail..

    Read the Treaty,and agree or disagree (on the actual Treay issues-not because a bunch of handicaps say that we’ll all have to be gay and abortions will be mandatory) or Fuck off…

    That was a Political Message on behalf of the “Shut the Fuck up and have an aul rub for yourself” Party

    ‘anyone who votes no to Lisbon for any reason other than they think its a bad treaty/deal for Ireland needs a slap.’

    Sorry, disagree there! It seems now that the only voice we have is our Vote and since they won’t even listen to calls of resignation and won’t even recognise the fact that they knowingly shaft us day ater day, this vote is the only way I have at the minute of actually doing sonething about the current mess!
    I offer a comprimise. I don’t doubt that Lisbon is massive for this country, bigger even than any one, or all, of those reprobates that claim to represent the best interests of us and this country. So, if it’s that important, Lisbon will get my ‘Yes’ vote if they resign!

    Mick Wallace was interesting on the radio yesterday evening. He’s into AIB for €40M. Says the government’s ‘valuation’ is too high.

    September 17th, 2009 @ 10:55 am

    Mick Wallace is a pretty decent fella. He’s open and honest about the whole mess. He’s not part of the set. He actually tries to build things that people like and add some value to the area there are in.

    Mick Wallace is a rare thing amongst developers.He has ethics and a concience.Has put money back into the community.I’d have to say that his word is to be trusted..

    There other developers who are decent and genuinely love building worthwhile stuff but they are usually not reckless speculators who drive Range Rover Sports, the car of the cunt.

    The United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) posting 1.5 million leaflets to Irish voters to show them how to do it, Ireland was a much better place when it was administered to by Britain, if you knew your place, did what you were told,you got your worth and every body was happy.
    I think they should change the names of Great Britian, and Ireland, to Big Britian and Little Britian.

    Maybe. But then again after Nice there was a fella doing my rostered hours for €5 into the hand while I got half a weeks’ work ( down from full time ). With that sort of ‘moving forward’ I’m prepared to take my chances.

    if you want to fuck over the government.. go mad in the next elections.. hey vote my left testicle in for Kerry North. Go nuts by all accounts. As regards Lisbon .. READ THE FUCKING LITERATURE and on that basis and that alone make your decision. If you want to get angry beat up a Vinter

    Don’t worry I fucked them over at the elections last time, and very much looking forward to fucking them over at the next one.

    It’s OK, we’re saved! Supersir Bob is on the case, the man that single handedly ended world famine and then, with a flick of his greying locks brought world governments to their senses so that they put a finish to third world derbt and effectively ended poverty.

    Explain to me how passing Nice caused your former employer to break the law while simultaneously screwing you over???

  44. Tony
    September 18th, 2009 @ 4:10 pm

    Hi V, well to put it bluntly Nice II and the accession states saw Ireland flooded with cheap labour, on top of the existing cheap labour from outside the E.U.

    People who live off old money in Castleknock would no doubt write to the Oirish Toimes to call me a racist, but usually same commute irregularly in and out of reality anyway.

    Problem: Greedy employers and people desperate for a wage. Add to that one or two regulation inspectors at the time. I couldn’t care less if we sign up to a nuclear arms race, after that I decided ‘fuck the government’.

  45. Tony
    September 18th, 2009 @ 4:58 pm

    Just one final observation for you V: The present hysteria which the ‘yes’ side are trying to whip up is the very same as during the 2007 elections: “Don’t rock the boat!” Funny that. The cunts got back in. What happened the boat?

    Familiar, no? You’re entitled to your opinion, even though unlike myself you haven’t explained where you’re coming from and your experiences. Just spare me the spurious suggestions about doom. We can take care of fucking everything up without the E.U. – we’ve certainly proven that.

    I think people should vote ‘No’ if they hate the govt., as a protest. But isn’t that irresponsible? Well, ask the Greens. It will be the fault of the Greens if that happens, because if they had any backbone they’d have pulled out of government ages ago and now we’d be living in a country where Fianna Fail’s corruption does not overshadow everything.

    Tony you are a racist and a nationalist and living proof that it’s not possible to debate anything important on the internet, so now I’m off to pick a few notes off the money tree in my back yard to get today’s Times, I might buy the Guardian while I’m at it, and possibly the english Indo because my protestant girlfriend likes to read it. She’s no poncy soft-brained Anglican either, she’s a proper massive Lutheran. Don’t forget to mark your ballot properly on the 2nd of October, it’s so easy to mistake it for a colouring book.

    On a serious note, I see it getting a lot worse in this country, as it’s been fucked up so badly we’ll have to get the IMF in. Hope your chains won’t be too tight, cos we’ll be wearing them for quite some time.

    Glad to hear it V. I met Sonny Knowles in a Pub toilets when I was a young fella ( not what you all think ).

    I goes “Hey, you’re Sonny Knowles?” He goes “No! No!” and legs it! I heard afterwards he was supposed to be off the booze.
