This fool was with the "economist" when it was recommended to buy bank of ireland shares at 9euros 60 cents. This fool is also a parasite sucking public money into his wallet. He is as he appears, Derek Justin. Thank You,

Solid rational objective. The irish media bow before his competence and hang on his every word. He appears to have come to us from some higher plane of reason to provide clarity in a time of gross confusion. If this is Irish stew the politicians and the media figures are the mate and spuds, we're soup, the pot's bubbling away in the kitchen of real world global finance and Dan is definitely not on the menu.

O'Brien's now on RTÉ's "Aftershock" telling us (again) to cut social welfare, and that our problem is that we're too democratic in our political system(!). This, interspersed with cuts to interviews with Tom Garvin and Des O'Malley and set to the soundtrack of Batman Returns... could you make it up? A postscript on this, from exactly a year on.
