Haughey is dead

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Tuesday June 13, 2006 12:40author by MG Report this post to the editors

Obituaries have been written for a very long time for the inevitable death of Charles J Haughey.

Since 10am this morning those obituaries are being dusted off, updated slightly, and published. What we will be hearing over the next several days is Bertie falling all over himself to praise the Big Corrupt One as FF continue to try and rehabilitate the man in time for the next general election (Haughey that is, not the Socialist one) . While Fine Gael and Labour are campaigning for the general election on a theme of not wasting tax payers money, nobody should expect them to protest against the waste of tax payers money on a state funeral for a Taoiseach who tried to avoid paying tax that would be far to good a service to voters for Enda and Pat.
