Alcohol Abuse is seen as a virtue, gombeenism also. Haughey got a State funeral after robbing the place blind. The IRA,UDA,& co are nothing but murdering cartels. The Catholic Church is nothing but a corporation. The Irish people themselves are to blame for all this but sadly they lack moral courage so they escape with alcohol as Michael Davitt said.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5829381583204750928.post-15725254592055013282011-11-28T19:51:22.597+00:002011-11-28T19:51:22.597+00:00I used "shyte" because I thought using &...I used "shyte" because I thought using "shite" might get rejected by some some new fangle anti-shite software. Nothing to do with the celtic tiger or being posh. <br /><br />Not trying to claim any credit but always saw the celtic tiger as a shysters and gangsters paradise. When ever I gave such an opinion I was ridiculed and told I was living in the past. I was not being a begrudger. I just wanted the country to be developed in a more enlightened manner when we had resources, instead of crawling into the gutter of the popular, celebrity, trash, gombeen culture. I am bitter to some extent as I am now being forced to pay for their bullshit.<br /><br />Democracy ceases to exist when you take from those willing to work and give to those who are unwilling to work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5829381583204750928.post-35706682588264196172011-11-28T11:38:53.504+00:002011-11-28T11:38:53.504+00:00"There was a time we went out to shyte and ca..."There was a time we went out to shyte and came in to eat.

About 9 yrs ago a Shocking near murder happened on Pearse st- English mixed race couple has just arrived in Dublin that eve, or previous one - for a holiday (!!!!) Local skanger took exception to seeing a black man walking with a white woman, battered him, shocking loss of blood- his wife said his body felt Cold from the amount of blood that had to be transfused in.He lived. Same man went on to kill a 15 yr old boy in west dublin last year.

And as an office worker I only see the verbal side of it. I Find it Hard to believe DS never saw aggression from Irish people- my friends taxi driver son was dragged from his car and battered when he asked a fare from 2 Irish people he left to Clondalkin. In the recent news was a 25 yr old Irish woman who Deliberately ran over and killed a man she had a dispute with , a skanger cutting off an artists fingers etc etc...Dreadful violence and Escalating among native Irish!!!<br />As far Kevin Cardiff, comical! yes Irish people can't see that low standards here are NOT the norm elsehwereannanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5829381583204750928.post-63025108585972879672011-11-24T22:55:56.886+00:002011-11-24T22:55:56.886+00:00It's interesting that two posters seem to thin...It's interesting that two posters seem to think that Scully's comments are mundane enough to constitute a majority view among the members of <em>Ireland's 'fascist party' (presumably FG not SF)/and the "majority of people of all political parties'.</em><br /><br /> Do the "majority" of Irish people find such remarks acceptable then, I wonder? So much so that it's considered PC to think a mayor refusing to represent black people is somehow wrong? Is this where we are at?<br /><br />Anon 12:01 evoked Father Ted in response to the real-life shenanigans that go on here... something I find myself doing all the time. Art imitating life in Ireland.<br /><br />Toast talks of new lows, and I agree. And that prat De Rossa is still going on about steamrolling Cardiff in, seeingthat his attempts to bully Nessa Childers backfired.<br /><br />As Dakota indicates, she's the only one who comes out well from this. And yes, the rest of our "representatives" involved in this fiasco should just stop drawing attention to themselves.<br /><br />Withdraw Cardiff, even if only to save further embarrassment. Europe's tolerance levels of our little idiosyncrasies are not what they were...<br /><br />Last Anon - "There was a time we went out to shyte and came in to eat.

I know the land of saints and scholars will miss the remittance from the 1.6 million euro but, hey, them is the breaks.....<br /><br />The great indignation at the refusal, GM....Really all we can do now GM, is laugh. If you do anything more than laugh and shake your head in disbelief, well it's not worth it. When you think you have seen and heard it all. This is just another one of those very "Irish" characteristics which don't translate into any other known language on the planet. Most if not all Europeans, even the southern variety GM, just don't get the Irish, they never really have. If asked they will say, oh yes charming, etc, oh, and we love your crazy craic, etc. But when they get back to the real world, they are as confused at the experience as I am with the cultural hegemony here on a daily basis. <br /><br />It's an ongoing tragic comedy GM....Intriguing to think how bad on all levels this country will get in the years to come. It's as if the floodgates of unmittigated stupidity opened by the celtic tiger were never closed. <br /><br />GM, apart from the remonstrations of MEPs such as Nessa Childers, if the rest of the "Irish" representatives in Euro Land had any sense, they would shut their collective mouths and say yes sir, no sir, and be happy with a pat on the head for good behaviour, when it comes to matters such as this. But no, the opposite, Big Paddy has to be the big man. As ever GM, the other Paddy, Mary and Mary's wife has to keep stum. It's everybody elses problem....Thoroughly stomach turning country....An unspeakably supine excuse for a nation.<br /> <br />Speaking of stum GM, WOW, I never thought I would hear one of the choosen race (the Irish) be so forthright about their views on minoritiy cultures (not the Irish, of course!).Dakotanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5829381583204750928.post-50615396423222341642011-11-24T18:10:41.917+00:002011-11-24T18:10:41.917+00:00well written GombeenMan!

Of course in this wonderful open society only certain viewpoints are tolerated. The real fascists are the PC clan and busy bodies trying to label any person who speaks out of line. If it were fifty years ago, these same groups would be screaming blasphemer and want to send free thinking people to institutions or abroad.

This argument may be weak but it is not malicious.<br /><br />Scully on the other hand is expressing a pretty mainstream view from Ireland's facist party.
