Ahern: I don’t have to ‘rehabilitate’ my public image

  1. God help us all we’re fucked

    Celtic tiger collapse wasn’t that long ago him rejoining Fianna Fáil is a disgrace and I’m happy to be open about my vote for Sinn Fein because yeah sure they came from a violent past but that was in the 70s and 80s? 90s at the latest. 2008 was when the Celtic tiger collapsed and destroyed our economy, so if people want to complain about a party’s past just remember what Fianna Fáil did to this country and to our economy, was much much closer then the past of Sinn Fein and if people are willing to forgive Bertie and let him be in politics again, I seriously don’t understand why the same can’t be done for Sinn Fein.

  2. Of course he doesn’t think so. Openly corrupt people never think they did anything wrong (see: Trump, Donald).

    It’s very telling that FF waited until *after* Michael D is ineligible to try to set Bertie up for a presidential run. They know he’d have gotten slaughtered.

  3. I don’t have words to describe the disdain I have for this cunt. He should be in jail. He’s drawing 3 different pensions and wants to make it 4 by trying to become president. This is an awful joke of a country sometimes.

  4. The most cunning, the most devious of them all. And that was said by fucking Charlie Haughey… 🙄

  5. Would anyone have a link to a list of things Bertie has been involved in please? I want to share it with people who are either too young to remember what a shit show he was or with the ones who were around but have selective amnesia!!

  6. Back in the run up to the presidential election, Joe Duffy did a poll on who (of a list of ten possible candidates) people would least like to be president.

    Bertie was eliminated by an overwhelming majority on the first count.

    There’s hope for us yet.

    But not for me as I listen to Joe Duffy.

  7. FFS. The one opportunity to appear humble and say of course he does and this is his answer.

    I was expecting crutches and all for the first few days

  8. Bertie gives shit handshakes.

    I had the misfortune of shaking this pricks hand when he was glad handing his way through the Crescent shopping centre. Yes, I know he was probably shaking every hand he could, and that probably didn’t help him give a good handshake, but here’s how it happened.

    It was mid 2000s, I was heading out for a smoke by the omniplex, and as I walked out of the shop I was working in, I pretty much walked right into the streak of corrupt misery.

    Didn’t realise who it was but sure we all know when someone goes to shake your hand, habit takes over and I stuck out the làmh.

    It was like sticking my hand into half cooked, luke warm koka noodles.

    I experianced the handshake equivalent of having an unattractive stranger lick you.

    Like picking up a cup of pick and mix jellys, popping one in your mouth, only to see a grubby Goblin-faced shitehawk coughing on the sweets and putting them back.

    Fuck you Bertie. Your daughter is a shit author, and you should be fired into the fucking sun you corrupt bastard.

    You won’t get my vote.
