Heartened that the panel on the VB show are sympathetic to my view regarding this Bin Laden slaying.

I don’t think that anyone would seriously expect a panel of talking heads in Dublin to doubt your view. However the reality is that the events of 9/11 were a gamechanger for the human rights agenda and concepts such as international law. Western democracies will still pay lip service to these concepts when it suits them but they largely now ignore them when it matters. If you look back in fifty years time you will note that 8/11 was the highpoint of personal freedoms and that these freedoms were steadily eroded after that date. And the general public didn’t really care.

At the risk of being pedantic, should that not be 9/10 as the high point date Fagan?

Never underestimate the value of pedantry farmer.

A good point well made

10/9 FFS. Get it right if your going to post correcting others.

The pride of Wexford mumbling along like a fucking eejit as usual.

You’ve outed yourself as a Kilkenny fiend over the past few days. See you in Wexford Park in June. :guns:

Enda making a fucking eejit of himself in the Dail

Sorry mate you have the wrong man

Good ruckus on tonight

That Fine Gael fella is making a bit of a muppet of himself… “He was a terriost shur…”

Wallace is a daft cunt.

This Declan Power is a dislikeable cunt. Even if I agreed with him I’d think that! :smiley:

This Wallace cunt owes millions to the banks and he’s lecturing us about legal rights.

The baldy lad is some absolute cunt

i didn’t mean bald, by the way, I meant white haired and not Mick Walllace.

What do you expect from a man whose surname is English

Pascal Donohue, TD, FG, is on Vinnie at the moment.

Every time I hear him, or any other Blueshirt, on about the EU/IMF deal they mention about ‘keeping the schools open and hospitals open’.

That John lad is good. Didn’t catch his surname or what his background is.

He is ex Libertas. They are all certainly able to talk the talk. I was impressed with the bird that wasn’t McKenna on the show last night. She was some professor from DCU. She knew her shit and was doable in an ugly sort of way.

Or should that be ‘was ugly in a doable sort of way’?
