    On the Irish Times link , I see Mary Hanafin offering her opinion.
    I should say Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown councillor Mary Hanafin.
    Another of the old guard I have no interest hearing or seeing again.
    Some of her wittering was actually on Wikileaks.

    My heart bleeds for him! But I'm sure his outrageous disgusting pension, softens the landing!
    It also underscores the fact that the Knacker from Drumcondra got out in time!
    Why didn't these dumb knackers protest back when the government was actually making those catastrophic economic decisions? There wasn't a peep out of them back in 2008 or 2010.

    Don't be such a dumbass. It's easy to vent when you don't have to back it up with anything constructive. Tell me, who would have done better in his stead?

    Cowan and indeed Ahern were c***hopper local parish pump politicians with no real knowledge of finance or economics
    Of how to deal with unrestrained clown developers let loose in the sweet shop of Euro zone lending
    or how to control (or even the necessity of controlling) an out of control banking system that had lost the run of itself.
    Most developers, bankers and indeed politicians in Ireland were about one generation (if that) removed from milking a goat in the middle of nowhere.
    Their knowledge of how to steer the ship of state through uncharted waters proved all too sadly lacking when the iceberg of fiscal reality suddenly came into view.
    How much of a crisis of fate the "establishment" went through is shown by the appointment of an outsider (Matthew Elderfield) as financialregulator instead of 1 of their own from inside the cosy cartels (to use Lowry's term) of Irish power.

    I would have done a better job in his stead
    Done a better job than C J at robbing the country and the Irish taxpayer and now be living with my 5 mistresses on the top floor of some condominium skyscraper , in a country with no extradition agreement with Ireland.
    There's honesty you'llol get from no politician.
