Don't Complain...

For obvious reasons I have been looking at some Irish blogs this morning and came across THIS wonderful blog post on a blog called Twenty Major. I can even forgive him the use of the C-Word. He reflects a bemusement in the Irish blogosphere about how the Irish people could actually re-elect Ahern's government...

So it looks like Bertie’s back for a third term. Brilliant, just f*****g brilliant. Let me just say that if you voted for him and his shower of crooks then you may not open your mouth for the next five years. Seriously.

Don’t complain when violent crime increases and more innocent people get killed in the crossfire. Don’t complain when the culture of passing the buck and not taking any responsibility for your actions results in you or a friend or a loved one being stabbed in the neck in Temple Bar for no reason at all. Don’t complain when more jobs are lost as the Celtic Tiger becomes the Celtic Ancient Old Lion that’s Been In the Zoo For Years. Don’t complain when the fucking shambles of a health service we have lets you down, leaves you waiting, misdiagnoses you and costs you a fortune paying for consultants and administrators. That’s if you get the chance before you die in a corridor. Don’t complain when they sell off our national resources to greedy multinationals. Don’t complain when more Garda corruption is uncovered and travesties of justice occur. Don’t complain about the leader of the country, whose shifty, half-arsed explanations about his finances don’t fool anyone with half a f*****g brain. Don’t complain about the state of transport in this country, both public and private. Don’t complain when you’re stuck on the M50 for hours or trying to commute to work every day from your home 50 or 60 or 70 miles away meaning you hardly get to see your kids. Don’t complain about the price of a house and don’t complain when the whole stamp duty thing gets brushed under the carpet. Don’t complain about the prehistoric communications systems we have which don’t allow you to get broadband and will never allow you to get broadband, and even if you have broadband it is a Ford Cortina to other countries Ferraris. Don’t complain when you can’t walk down Grafton Street without some gypsy shoving a baby under your nose and begging for money while another one picks your fucking pocket. Don’t complain when the drinking water in whatever part of Ireland you live in becomes poisonous and gives you the raging scuts or the black death. Don’t complain when the mythical Metro to the airport, which was supposed to be in place this year as per their manifesto in 2002, isn’t completed until 2023 and costs 5 times as much as they said it would. Don’t complain about this government in five years time when they haven’t kept their promises because they did that last time and you let them away with it.

Why would they think they had to do anything different this time around? Just don’t complain. You have no f*****g right to. Ireland needed a change from the shifty, crooked, back scratching, self-serving, arrogant, deceitful and downright avaricious adminsistration we’ve had for the last 10 years. Everybody complains all the time about Bertie and every other fucking little thing his government does or fails to do - but when the time comes to put their money where their mouth is they’re just as happy to bend over, get fucked up the arse by Fianna Fail and keep the status quo. People might say the majority have spoken but all this does is prove that the majority of people in this country are stupid c***s.

The comments make Guido's look timid...
