Lies, Lies and more lies!!!!  A terrible abuse of power!!!!  It is quite obvious that the wealthy controlling sect in Ireland are delighted to see Ahern getting away with it all.  If he were to be found to be in the wrong they and their cosy semi-fraudulent types would come under scrutiny and severe fiscal pressure.  It is time the ordinary people of Ireland got rid of these mongrels' and were allowed share in the wealth of the Celtic Tiger Economy.

It is absolutely amazing how little of this is on the front page of national newspapers in Ireland!!!
