    Don't think any of them are ****wits at all,It takes a lot of courage and balls to put yourself out there for the public and media to go through you and your family's life with a very fine tooth comb,Don't agree or even like them all but I have to give it to them all for at least trying and doing what they believe in.

    Should have put it beside Gallagher as his party is responsible for most of the ghost estates in the nation.

    What terrorist attack?


    Telling the truth about Fianna fails sean gallagher equals a terrorist attack now :D;) Yep it might have blown his chances of lying his way to be president.:p

    Or in Dana's case, prostituting yourself in the vain hope of keeping yourself in the public eye, conveniently forgetting all the bull**** in your private life that would probablycome out, and then therefore hoping to use said bull**** to your gain.

    realies?

    Perhaps a handful of NI / UK posters (and an armchair loyalist) who would describe themselves as culturally and politically unionist in outlook, after that I'm flummoxed tbh.

    Agree on Marty Mc though, I think he'll show up well.

    SF's terrorist attack on gallagher looks like it worked.

    Exposing Sean Gallagher for the liar he is on live television = terrorist attack?

    How very fox news-esque of you.

    Saw this on politics.ie
    I have just cast my vote as well;

    1. Dana
    2. Sean Gallagher
    3. Gay Mitchell
    4. Mary Davis

    Oh wait I just woke up it was only a horrific nightmare.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭Degag


    Was it just me or should information regarding the two referendums should actually have been on the ballot paper? I mean how many people actually knew the difference between Article 29 and Article 30 or whatever they were called?

    Saying that, there may have been info up on the wall or something but i didn't look cause i was voting yes to both anyway.

    If he does not come second then he wil come third, not a bad start for a person who does not live here. anway as a ''fellow country man'' should you not be happy for him?:p

    MY vote from across the sea goes to Mary Davis's 2 daughters.
    They can be joint presidents, I have no qualms with 2 lovely girls at the same time & would love to have them in the Aras.

    It took me a few moments to see it on my Ballot Slips, but just underneath it said what the title was. From memory one said 'Judges Pay' and the other 'Oireachtas Enquiries'

    The funny thing is both sides will be happy and call it a "win"; one side will have stopped him getting into power, the other will simply say they never expected a win and the figure/place he got is proof "Ireland" is moving on. Win/win.

    See, I don't think they should be providing the info on what the things are about when you're gone to vote; by that stage, you should have at the very least read over the info which came through your door. There was names on each one ("Judges pay" for example). After that, it's up to you to educate yourself on the wider ramifications of allowing them to alter judges wages and launch their own investigations.


    On a related note, Rte teletext page 120 say on the fifth count that Higgins is winning with SG in second....and as I type that, it's wiped the page XD

    Ok, teletext page 120 is back up :S Surely the polls aren't closed yet and they can't start counting yet.

    For those interested, it's MDH, SG, MMG, Mitchell, Davis, Norris, Dana according to the page >_>
