The hunt for David McWilliams

[Libero]

It's a Friday and the country is still going down the tubes.

Anyhow, I was browsing the site when I noticed this... (http://www.politics.ie/economy/40858...igs-fly-3.html)

McWilliams - as a foppish gentelman's club West-Brit nancy-boy - obviously wants our currency to be dominated by the UK other countries, without our input

Well, it cheered me up to read a rabid Fine Gael partisan desrcibing someone in those terms. It's a bit like Jackie Healy-Rae condemning his target as an inarticulate cute-hoor gombeen. Projection, I think it's called.

Anyhow, it got me wondering... Are people who call others "foppish" quite likely to be foppish themselves? And is Mr McWilliams even a member of a gentleman's club?

So since the current caption competition is a bit lame, here's a Friday challenge for you all: try to find a picture of Mr McWilliams looking especially foppish, peeved, perturbed and other adjectives used by FG supporters who aren't allowed to canvass real people. Bonus points will be awarded if he is wearing an open-necked striped shirt and is pictured inside the sumptuous surroundings of a Dublin gentleman's club. It will make one FG luncatic happy, at least until he can spin Sunday's opinion poll results.

In fact, the winning photo might look a lot like this...



Off you go!

He's not in that picture...

But here he is:

Must be a winner - McWilliams pointing simultaneously, and at the same time, at his mouth and his dick. Sez it all.

The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.

Projection, I think it's called.

This was an argument used by French post-colonialist writers like Aime Cesaire who "re-interpreted" Shakespearean plays like The Tempest and suggested that the insults used by the European settlers against the native character of Caliban (e.g. his "lust" for white women) was actually a projection of the settlers' own desires.

As for the use of "projection" on the forum, I saw a recent thread that rehashed the tired old idea that modern men aren't "real men" any more (e.g. the modern generation are all lazy etc - the kind of nonsense a grumpy old fart in a pub might come up with). It led me to wonder if the author of the thread is a "real man" himself.

And as for McWilliams himself, he's a bright and unorthodox thinker of the kind badly needed in this ailing economy.

I am not surprised Dave is looking a little, well, tense, he has had to endure a lunch with one of the robots from IBEC. Perhaps even enduring their "analysis" of the Lisbon treaty.

Given what this picture captures he has been through - he is looking well.
