Dublin Opinion

Enda Kenny was speaking yesterday about the economy. He was at the Humbert Summer School, and although he didn’t mention free laptops for schoolkids, or annual reports, or segregation, or hijabs, he did however criticise the government, calling it “devoid of ideas.”

Now, we all know about Fine Gael and ideas. The average Fine Gaeler has more ideas on the inside flap of his anus than most people have in their entire body. Unfortunately, the inside flap of his anus is usually where the average Fine Gaeler gets his ideas - so their propensity to build up in that particular part of his anatomy, well, it ‘aint so special.

McFuckwit then went on to say how Fianna Fáil ignored the housing bubble, and failed to address the situation in time.

But Fine Gael had exactly the same view of the housing bubble as Fianna Fáil - Kenny’s sphincter-tinted glasses mustn’t allow him to see that far back into the past, I suppose.

Poor Kenny. He spent the last general election campaign telling householders everything is ok with their homes, as he didn’t want to be the messenger who everyone wants to shoot, but now, now he’s got a genuine case for “I told you so” and all he’s got in his backpocket is a free laptop and annual reports for headmasters to fill in.

Yesterday, as part of his new economic plan for Ireland, he revealed that he would sack people not doing their job, and force banks to give credit out to people.

The international credit crisis, it seems, has passed poor Enda by. The Irish banks are holding back, it seems. It’s not that we need an alternative to domestic construction as an economic crutch, what we need is MORE domestic construction, fueled by credit, with the people building the houses, presumably, buying the houses as well.

God. It would be actually dangerous to let this guy anywhere near a position of power or influence.

Which is pretty much what the Irish public concluded last year.

God. I’d almost feel sorry for the fuckwit, but then I remember him prior to the Lisbon vote, when he told us all how, “as a Catholic”, he was shocked and appalled at the No campaign.

Well, a man, a grown man, educated as well, who believes that the credit fairies are going to get us out of this mess, it stands to reason he believes in the Catholic hobgoblins as well.

Enjoy.
