    Taoiseach finds a solution to launch the Irish economic recovery. (Lord save us all)

    Brian Cowen has unveiled his big Solution, to trigger Ireland's economic recovery - and it's so simple, I don't know why anyone didn't think of it before.

    Cowen's Big Solution is: A GLOBAL economic recovery!!!

    Clever Brian has realised that this will "Trigger" a recovery in Ireland. Imagine!

    Mr Cowen reiterated to TDs that Ireland had a open economy and he suggested that a global economic recovery was required in order to trigger an Irish economic recovery.
    He deserves six weeks off after the mental strain of coming up with that.


    Was somebody talking about driving some tanks up to Kildare St?

    The strain of digesting the batter burgers more like.
    How did he get away with it for so long?
    Its only a chat, we ain't the world council.
    In 2000 the Women's Institute in Britain gave Tony Blair the slow hand clap to demonstrate their contempt.

    I've been "preaching" for 2 years how the "Celtic Tiger" was nothing more than a catching up with what was happening globally and we would follow. Meanwhile back in the Fianna Fail ranch in 2007 they were patting themselves on the back on the exemplary job they did in creating the Celtic Tiger...any YOU ALL swallowed it

    So BIFFO is finally but slowly attempting to tell the truth! This is a recovery in itself.

    Look, guys, it could be much worse. Rather that doing nothing he could be trying to do something and give what he has been doing, or trying to, of late I think we lucked out on him deciding to do nothing at all and letting other sort it out.

    But wait, if he's saying that a "global economic recovery" is necessary for economy to recover... then... (shock, horror), FF couldn't have created the "Celtic Tiger". Gasp.
