Illusive Pimpernel (Socialist)

category national | miscellaneous | opinion/analysis author Saturday January 01, 2005 02:17author by Jack Russell - Social Justice Activist Report this post to the editors

Let's Go Back to 2004......

One morning the Pimpernel woke up and decided 'I am going to be a socialist'........

It is the only way, he thought.....that I can stop the rise in the Sinn Fein vote. If Adams can look like Castro, Bertie can look like Che Quevara!!!!!!!

Of course, we won't mention that the 'Cobbler from Castleknock who wiped his eye' i.e. Che Quevara.

Now in the New Year, I hope the people of Ireland have the common sense to look closely at the New Disability Bill. I have a deep feeling, it is going to be a ruthless decoy in relation to the next General Election in two years and believe me this Government is ruthless enough to do it on the backs of the vulnerable.

Remember the 2,000 Gardai that McDowell promised two years ago and my doubts have already started in relation to this new Disability Bill - I deeply hope I am wrong but if they are going to spend over 800 m. euros, common sense tells me you need to have the infractructure in place. So I say to Che (Bertie) don't lie to the Irish people on this topic because you will be caught out no matter how illusive you think you are.

The typist adds in her comment:-

Social issues including Suicide, Special Needs Education, Availability or at least access to psychologist at primary and secondary school level, advocacy for vulnerable members of society, the elderly, those with mental health problems, alcoholism, homeless - people generally who experience a form of alienation from a society defined by WHO!!!!!!

I have a humble suggestion. We see some 17,000 dogs put down in Ireland each year and I ask why so many viz a viz other countries.

We are moving towards Europe so if this is the case why are dogs banned from pubs, coffee houses etc. We need to be dog friendly and this is a special need of people who are often vulnerable in society.

Recently in Ranelagh I was surprised when a rather elegant woman in her eighties brought in to the coffee shop her canine......In Paris, Austria etc. dogs are welcome.

If the pubs are bleeting about loss of funds why are we turned away because we want our Jack Russell's to sit with us while we eat.......

Jack Russell is back.

To this so called socialist who is most skilful, who is most devious, who is most cunning, I ask 'Is Mutton Pullen getting his P45 for the year? Before I go, could Liamo tell me scientifically how this evoting system was credible to people like me, with a deep understanding of science knows otherwise!
You see LiamO when people call others idiots, they have a lack of knowledge which means they lack intelligence. When the Americans in some States knew it was a non starter in this years elections, you see LiamO it became a global concern.

I wish everyone a Happy New Year and keep away from the Bleach, it clings on like a Leech.

Quotation:
'There is nothing more painful than the insult to human dignity.

Nothing more humiliating than servitude. Human dignity and freedom are our birthright.

Let us then defend them or die with dignity'

Cicero (ex. Springs of Roman Wisdom)
