Ye wha?

The aul' triangle goes jingle jangle...wha?

Now I’m just a Dublin working class foul mouth kind of chap. Think everything Roddy Doyle has ever written, (I’ve been known to use swear words).
Anyhoo, I’m curious about how our newborn socialist Bertie Ahern and co. are making sweet financial love with the Chinese powers that be. Okay the odd student was run over by a tank, but its like pencils have erasers and that chap who was agin it but was put under house arrest until he died at the end of last year. No harm done. I’m also a little confused as to why Irish middle class folk who have in recent years set up factories in China and have made millions paying their Chinese national workers on average 70 euro a month are cool for some reason. Now I know they love their rice and such, but I’m sure they have other out goings like two litres n’ such. But how come these ‘Irish' folk are applauded for their keen business sense? How come our illustrious commie leader is okay with this as long as the nation concerned supplies students at a high cost as only the Chinese corrupt middle class can afford.
Sure you’d have to be at college to answer that. I dunno, as my public representative, (if you’ve no call for originality) Roddy sez’ ,”Me Gooter!”
Sure it’s like shuttin’ down Irish glass and exporting out glass waste as we have no where to melt the stuff…Mental!
I'm off to apply for Irish citizenship for me burd's baby, turns out just 'cause britney was born here doesn't mean shes Irish..Mad!
