Sick of Enda Kenny

    Does anyone know if Enda Kenny and his party actually have their own propositions or plans for what to do about this whole crisis?
    Im by no means a Fianna Fail supporter, but it seems to me the only thing Enda Kenny is good for is moaning about the oppositions failures. I really believe they would be just as much a disaster as FF.

    They'd be worse.

    I thought its the job/right of the Opposition to moan at the Government?
    It was the same when Rainbow Coalition was in power with FF attacking Bruton, its the same now with Kenny/Gilmore after Cowen.

    It's not as if FF had a plan either two years ago. The economy was doing fine, people were buying big homes, second cars etc. so people just stuck with it.

    I think this has gone beyond that though, I wish theyd either come up with some suggestions themselves or shut up.

    yes, clearly this is all FG's fault.

    Damn them for their evil parliamentary Opposition - they're running the country into the ground by eh, not running the country <shakes fist>

    They're waiting for Enda "Sign The Contract" Kenny to fall on his sword first.

    Im just wondering do they have any practical suggestions that oppose FFs suggestions, after all they are the opposition party.

    He is an embarrassment to the people who elected him..

    Every argument he makes uses weird similes i.e. "cowen is like a t-rex that cant scratch its nose and thats the problem."

    I hve never heard him make one proposal or any constructive criticism.


    Him and Mark Robson would make a great couple

    Kenny for years has had all the ammo in the world to fire at FF. From Bertie's dig out payments to the economy and he has failed to pull the triger. Kenny wants to be leader of the country but if afraid to do it. Cowen has became leder when it is rough. Over the last 10 years an un-trained monkey could have ren the country.... O wait they did. LOL.

    Can you think how bad the country would he was in charge. He babbles on about nonsence. Well more nonsence than a usual TD.

    Let me get this straight: Enda Kenny is a failure because he criticises Fianna Fáil, and because he doesn't criticise Fianna Fáil?

    What a ridiculous post, Your sick of Kenny, even though the country is in the sh!tter and the only party to take us there was Fianna Failure, Ahern and Cowen. How could Enda Kenny and FG have done any worse! You cant go lower than rock bottom! :rolleyes:

    Don't think that's possible, TBH.

    Kenny has not been any opposition for FF. He should criticise FF at every chance. God knows he has had every chance.

    Fintan O'Toole had a great line about Enda Kenny in today's Times; he's a great leader for Fine Gael but a bad leader of the opposition.

    Think that sums up his problems perfectly. Fine Gael as an organisation have done well under him - membership numbers are up and there seems to be a bit of momentum among the party faithful - but he simply isn't inspiring enough to be thought of as potential Taoiseach. His attacks on Cowen and FF have been insubstantial and weak and he isn't offering enough of an alternative.

    Two years, ago, when I heard the advertisement, on radio, for a foreign property exhibition at the RDS: "Come one down, we have thousands of investment properties for sale in Spain...", I started stocking up on tinned goods.

    We aren't at rock bottom.

    We aren't close.


    When the IMF arrive, then we are near rock bottom.
