No, he denied ringing Hillary to ask him to dissolve the Dail.

Robinson was a great leader, certainly very transitional. I'm not sure what her message is being on tonight. She reminds me of a corporate leader who has been coached beyond their personality.

Was it not Lenihan made a bollix of it rather than her winning it?

You have to be in to win but ya Lenihan decided to claim something that was easy not to verify when he should have stayed quiet

Ask her about her Freemason husband sorting out that dirt on Brian Lenihan.

There are only a few women in the world I fear - and I'm just thinking her giving out to you would be fearsome - her and my mother in law would be some attack.

Skid X

Gay Byrne had a sort of tribute night for Brian Lenihan on the LLS where he unofficially launched his Presidential run, showing old clips (Gay doesn't appear until the end)

It was a bit weird even then, in fairness it was good to see someone new win the Presidency

I haven't watched a full show in a long time, but I'm certainly struck by the pitting of the sexes against one another in every topic. And Tubridy's pushing of this.

If there is a dose worse than COVID, then it is Ryan Tubridy himself.

When does the fawning over Biden start?

I recall dialling up on the 14400 US Robotics modem at the time (de Rolleds Royce of the era so to speak), put it this way it would take half an hour to just load YouTube nevermind watch one of the videos . The youth of today really don't know how good they have.

Read up on the 1990 election. Lenihan was a shoe-in for it till the scandal!

Why would you Irish want to revisit 1990?


:pac:

Because it was the beginning of the good times. We had an economy starting to grow we had a soccer team that good play football with the best of them and we had a female President before even America who still have not had one. Yes it was not all perfect. It was not easy for gay or Trans people back then in our little country and it's still not for the latter but it's a lot better now than back then. We have made great progress in the last 30 years. Here is too the next 30.

Did the tree grow and is it still there

This is about 28/29 years ago so I'm not sure if it's still there but....when she put it in to the ground the sky turned the darkest black you could imagine. Birds dropped down dead and dogs screamed! Now when did you ever hear a screaming dog. It was also at this point that I swallowed the sweet whole.

caveat emptor

Woman president 1990, Gay Taoiseach from 2017........ in 2034 what then?

Stuff changes fast. Mad to think but good if good people get the opportunity no matter what.

Yes, it was a Sean Gorillagher envelope moment.

Only Gallagher, if he had half a brain, would have said, "yes, I was in FF, and I helped them fundraise-so what? They were and are a democratically elected party!"

He'd probably be still in the Aras today, and little Mickey would be over in Galway writing bad poetry.

Austin Currie won bigly. He won every county, by a landslide!

Just like the Irish soccer team win all their games nil all.

My god that's the worse song i've ever heard. its like they just picked parts of every other xmas some and xmas buzz word and took them out of a big hat.....

Shocking stuff wow

"The Elders"

Who do you think you are?

Fcuk off

Atlantic Dawn

Crazy how much money Covid has been allocated, maybe 5% of that would eradicate world hunger each year.

BoroMan32

Love how she just casually drops in the name of an African country whenever she can.

Tiresome old goat.

Atlantic Dawn

What is she talking about, he's there until January either way.

Trump of course shoe horned into the conversation :mad: christ this gob****e Tubridy

Ol' Donie

The Elders. Good name, team. I bet they have fierce competitive modesty competitions.

Trump and his behaviour and his backers are disgusting...

Quit pussyfooting around it!

IN fairness best guest in a while - she is still very sharp.

An element of aloofness - but hey she kinda is.

If Ryan used the term 'woman of colour' to describe a fellow RTE worker he would find himself before HR.

I would have asked her take on it as well.

I mean, she is a career politician and stateswoman..

And the U.S. election is huge news!!

HBC08

Not watching tonight but just caught 30 seconds of that clip of the lads from 30 years ago not being very PC.Cuts back to Ryan and he looks horrified and says "thankfully we don't have to put up with that sssshhii rubbish anymore" like he was going to say sh1te instead of rubbish.
How many times did he practice that in the mirror, he's so pathetic .

Transformer Taoiseach. All about equality for cyborgs in the 2030s.

Mr Data is hoping for a shot on the Democrat ballot in 2032.
