Why is there hatred for Labour's Joan Burton

Why is there hatred for Labour's Joan Burton. I don't get it. She does not belong to the toxic FF party and she knows how to do her job. Read this from Jan 2007. Labours - Joan Burton calling on FF's finiance minister - brian cowen to introduce measures to avoid serious trouble for Ireland.…

She is incredibly irritating and what could only be described as a rhetoric box. If she had two braincells to rub together i would be very surprised.
I'm just glad she can't interrupt my post

I've no idea what she has to say as I just can't stand her voice so therefore can't listen to her....

I think the reason people don't like Joan Burton is because she never listens, to anybody,ever,no one,at all,ever. She keeps repeating her views on certain issues but doesn't take time to hear other views.
I think we need listeners in government not just strong leader types as she is. I get the feeling she is a know-it-all and if she will ignore advisors when she does get in to government we will be in deeper trouble than we are now.
Not admitting she was wrong on vinb (when she clearly was) didn't help.
