    I noticed during the Vatican anthem(didn't know it had one) he looked bored to tears as did president and Mrs Higgins.

    I do not know about you but I do not like hypocrites.

    One one hand you have a keyboard warrior giving out about 'good' Catholics, on the other hand the same poster excuses the murder of women and children, because it was for 'the cause'

    You think I should let that slide? Do you want me to excuse the murder of women and children?

    You go find a post where I excused murder Mark. And stop making a hypocritical fool of yourself here.
    If you have to stoop to lies to defend your position you are as bad as the Pope and all the good Catholics and priests.

    Because if you look him in the eyes, it's like staring directly at the sun or something.

    No photo of him skulling a pint of guinness either, very poor show in my opinion.

    I always thought the aras was a bigger building.

    President Higgins is fluent in Spanish ?

    Realistically this 32m figure is another illustration of media inability to objectively report on things. The event may cost approximately 32m but it will result in spending by the public from which the Exchequer will benefit through VAT, etc. Overall the 32m will probably be recouped from the event.

    Fair play on that then.

    Looks like the visit is going very well so far

    Hopefully he doesn't make any surprise visits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,675 ✭✭✭✭Alf Veedersane

    RTE lip-readers said that he just said "10/10 would visit again".

    Bold statement early on

    Higgins looked very concerned while she put her tuppence in.

    Who is the name of God is that woman commentating on RTE? She's atrocious. Can barely get the words out at times. She is some sort of religious affairs expert?

    You're pulling the p*ss right? Frank is the head of one of the world's largest organisations that engaged in systemic child abuse and rape but your issue is with her?

    Well I'll have to disagree with her being dangerous.

    But yes the president did look a bit concerned as it went on.

    I don't think she is dangerous. She just thinks she has a right to tell people exactly how little she thinks of them and then thinks they are bigots if they disagree.

    I wonder what route she took from her office to the Aras this morning. With her track record on milage I wouldn't be surprised if she claims more miles this morning than the pope.

    Oh yes, with the 'bortion and the gehys. I'd say you're projecting on Higgins there, I doubt he's concerned about Zappone. She backed his run for a second term, so seems there's no beef.

    He is ok with cartain breeds that don't shed, the same way Obama's daughter is; they had to get a special breed of pet dog when they moved into the whitehouse because of her allergies.

    More lies won't help Mark.

    Where in that thread did I 'excuse' murder?

    The lies the arch Roman Catholics will stoop to is unbelievable.

    Of course not. I just don't want you to mistake those points as relevant to this discussion. Or for you to mislead others into mistaking them as relevant.

    The pope's subordinates get to wear black outfits that can hide food stains and are much easier to keep clean. For going to all the trouble of getting promoted above them Francis has to wear an all white number. Hardly fair.
