We have turned the corner.I commend this Budget to the House. Brian Lenihan, 9 December 2009
I wonder what charity Willie O'Dea will denote his ministerial pension to
The State already pay for his office & staff.
I have just been reading about the ministerial pension that Willie O'Dea is going to start drawing while still getting his TD salary.
Am I right in thinking that he still gets to keep his ministerial car & driver?
There is something deeply rotten at the core of Irish Government life.
I was listening to O'Dea's supporters on lineline crying about loss of office for their beloved Willie.
I was amazed at their total lack or shame or contriteness for what Willie did. If they are to believed, then they seem to think that Willie is the victim in all of this. Its like they are living in a parallel universe.
The people who call up to defend Willie, are the most devious and deluded of the FF'ers. Joe Duffy loves those. I recommend that you listen to Radio Eireann's News at 1 - Jerry Beades from the FF national executive, slating Willie O'Dea, Mary Coughlan - he directly blames her for losing those jobs this week. Dermot Ahern he describes as having nothing in his favour this week.
Enjoyable to hear them tearing shreds off each other.

It should be noted that Beades is part of Bertie's Drumcondra Mafia and property developer to boot.
Perhaps he hasn't forgiven Cowen for getting rid of the Galway tent?
