On Fianna Fail's glorious record
Yet this is the party that did its violent best to destroy the State at its outset, and did so again in the 1930s by waging a ruinous economic war with the world's mightiest empire, and our only trading partner. It did bring the State to its knees in the 1950s, attempting to create a Catholic Gaelic paradise, and courted ruin again in 1970 when it turned a blind eye to the formation of the Provisional IRA.
Lo, come the 1980s, and insane Fianna Fail borrowings took us to the brink of penury. And finally, here we are again in the 2000s, now facing Armageddon.

I've a theory about Kevin Myers.
According to him he used to have a relationship with a Rebublican girl from Belfast, and he was offered a job in England, when she got sick so he declined it to look after her.
She got better and dumped him, and I think that is where all his hatred of Republicanism and Irishness comes from, he's just embittered by rejection
LOL

If he suggested that the concept of an Irish race had no genetic basis and we were the same as the British he would be attacked too. So which is it? Is there such a thing as a genetic basis for Irishness? If so then it will have good and bad characteristics in the mix.
But to focus on that is to miss his actual point which is one of speculation born of frustration at the state we have managed to get ourselves into yet again.
He manages to get in a racist dig at African Americans too. Is he youngdan, do you think?
I would imagine that most of the grand movements of history could be reduced to such occurances.

I look forward to a piece from him explaining the predatory expansionism of the English state and the perfidity of Albion from a genetic perspective..............
I wonder is there any name for the genetic condition that has created such an abomination as Kevin Myarse?
