    Richard Bruton?

    Is the man okay healthwise?

    Look at the photo from the caption competition, he looks very shook and not good at all. A great political man and I would be very upset to hear if he was not well.

    Ridiculous rumour. I've known Richard for ten years. He's always looked like that.

    Better to defend a leader who has led his party back from near oblivion in 2002 to being consistently the most popular in the state,
    than,
    to defend the person whose policies as Minister for Finance and now as Taoiseach have succeeded in leading the country to its greatest catastrophe since the Civil War.
    There are times when you are simply required to be impolite. There are times when condescension is called for!

    What a load of tripe! I see Richard jogging along Griffith Avenue in the morning around 7.30. He fairly bombs along and I would say that he's damn fit.

    Mmm, but it must still be a bit sickening to come up with all the good ideas and have them hammered out in Endaspeak

    Wow that's impresive. Gotta say whatever else about them, FG top people can't be said to physically resemble fatcats unlike the current Govt's
