    Libertas: Unable to Take Criticism

    I note that I've been on politics.ie for over 3 years, and the only times - bar one - I've ever been neg repped, all have been for posts critical of Libertas. Anyone else the same? And why is CookieMonster able to repeatedly neg rep me - surely there's a limit to how many times a person can neg rep another?

    This is a guy who has quoted himself () as a source for some of his outrageous defences of Declan Ganley and Libertas.

    Somehow I don't think "neg repping" (whatever that is) would worry him too much

    The phrase being able to dish it out but being unable to take it comes to mind.

    Barry, really any chance you come out of your paddling pool of lies. I said that Declan Ganley had issued legal proceedings againt RTE for their ridiculous Prime Time program.

    You asked for a source and I told you that I was the source because I was the first person to break it on politics.ie or indeed anywhere. And it turned up in the papers the next day.

    You keep bringing this us and looking like a total fool each and every time you do. You were wrong, get over it.

    I've found something similar. Tactic seems to be not to neg rep you for a comment but to wait until later for a less obvious post and be neg repped. Generally its something like 'Stupid point' posted after it. I would suggest DC and co show some good faith by removing all neg repping by Pro Libertas posters, we all know them well. Unlikely?

    It's just that people can see an agenda a mile off. Whenever the politicians are debating and Ganley is on the panel, instead of attacking each other they attack him. It's an orchestrated campaign based on subordinating the interests of Ireland to those of Brussels and the system. What also gets to me are the extremity of the smears, which go beyond what you get between the Establishment parties e.g. baseless accusations of CIA involvement with Libertas, claims of linsk with the arms industry. It all smacks of an Establishment conspiracy against the people, intended to keep them in their place and shut them up.
