    Personally think she did good work in that area. Recent events have not been so good.

    Called Leo Varadker autistic ....not very nice to be passing comments like that when many family’s have an autistic kid and have a tough time .
    I certainly wouldn’t be voting for her after that

    She seems like a bit of a troll herself.
    Throwing a hissy fit because she didn't get All ireland tickets.
    Parking on the footpath 'cos everyone does that'.
    Calling her party leader autistic, then denying it until the journalist produced the tape.
    Classy.
    She probably should stop impersonating a lying weasel if she doesn't want to attract fire.

    We really need someone of this calibre in the Dail alright.

    She used it as an example of something that politicians should never say. I think she is right.

    No she didn't. She used it as an example of a word you say in a figurative sense, like 'special.' Then panicked and said actually she never says it.

    If she lies about remarks she makes, what else has she or will she lie about?
    She can't be trusted & should not be in a position of power, or indeed any position that requires the slightest bit of integrity.

    She has never been elected just appointed by Enda Kenny to the Senate.

    I think everyone would agree, bar racists, that the N word should never be used with or without intent.

    You'd have to ask her in what context she likes to use the word.

    What about its use in popular music? Is that ok?

    I didn't claim she was, & as I said nor should she be.

    Yes, the Senate - I consider that a position that requires integrity.

    It would be great if the taxpayer could settle my phone bill also. Mulherin & Noone are entitled chancers, hiding out in the senate with fellow ne'er do wells.

    Its use in popular music is by black artists. I have never heard a white or asian artrist use the N word.

    And our Catherine.

    Parking her van on the footpath really annoyed me as it is around the corner from the Irish Wheelchair association and the Central Remedial Clinic who will often have their service users going past on the way to Supervalu Killester and would need to use that footpath.

    Lost five votes in our house hold over that alone.
