Gerry clint Adams- ready to help clean dodge [ dail ]"
In the first of the 'Dollars Trilogy'I think the town was San Miguel and the intention of 'the man with no name' was to play the Rojo and Baxter families of against each other and turn a pound from the situation. Sounds uncannily familiar to 'the man with no blame.'
michael henry, the certainly could not call him Gerry 'skint' Adams, more dollars than sense these days. Named again in connection with the Northern Bank him and 'traitors'Mc Guinness.
michaelhenry, he couldn't clean up Sodom and Gamorrah. He could help them conceal their secrets though. Dodgy city would be a much more appropriate title for anywhere he resides.
'Irish Economics' Hope he reads it, before he goes on any talk shows. michaelhenry, doesn't care who Gerry had buried as long as they were enemies of Ireland. Big G tends to occupy the precarious side of life, so you would be advised to keep your distance.
Another classic and very appropriate A Carpetbagger: 'In sum, carpetbaggers were seen as insidious Northern outsiders with questionable objectives meddling in local politics'
“Bury some-ones mother someones father, son, daughter- loved one or lover”
Gerry should use that as an election slogan as we all know the new and improved Sinn Fein would not agree with you in public. A one Ireland one party doctrine and bury the non believers not a bad outlook and this is when you are in good form. You should open up a wee shop in Louth just on the off chance the Sinn invaders win you are bound to make a quick profit as shovels will be in high demand, since you approve of the burying business if they win business will be booming.
michaelhenry, starting to believe you are right that 'no one can stop this.' No one has even managed to scupper Big Percy so far. I honestly thought all the lies and deceit regarding his brother Liam would have have brought him to the surface, turd like. No, the very evasive and enigmatic Gerry managed to turn that round and actually portrayed himself as the victim. Then the 'Disappeared' and another gala performance from the Master of spin and deception. 'I think I was in every prison in the six counties during those times.' Morrison, should have given him the lead role in the wrong man. Well at least we are getting shot of him, no pun intended.
That narrows it down a bit does this mean a change of heart and you accept the independent republicans as republicans or just the select few on the Quill? I love your enthusiasm we should change the name of that wee song from Johnston’s to Gerry’s motor car that should get the people tapping. Good luck with the invasion Mickey and may god have pity on all those non-republicans.
....hitler,adams,the pope and a school girl were in a plane,about to crash,and there was only 4 parachutes...the pope said he'd dole them out as he was old and holy.First he gave hitler his forgiveness and his parachute,then he gave adams his forgiveness and parachute,then of course the young girl got one,then he called the pilot and said,are you right,theres two left,a chara,i gave that cunt adams the school bag.
I read Morrison's 'the wrong man' a long time back, i always thought that the lead Sf ra man was one of the good gun person- and that other character the dissident tout was the bad one-
Tain bo-
God might have pity but he is one of the few- once the smiles are over and the last crown scum has left the intependents will get a visit- i dont know about the riseing of the moon- but they will be kicked over the moon- for peace- our peace.
mise eire, totally brilliant the indian and the pope joke.
michaelhenry, did not read or watch it myself, find the author insufferable and I would find his writing the same. To be honest, the plot sounds as boring and predicable as the writer. zzzzzzzzzzz
Probably more than any single thing the character of the man was revealed through his promotion and cover up of a person he believed to be a child rapist.
Set aside the republican politics, it is about something wider than political games. That issue shows the degree of unalloyed malevolence there. And you just sort of instinctively know that the rape victim would have ended up in one of his secret graves if it was the only thing that guaranteed his political career. That and no less is what you are confronted with here.
Michaelhenry,
I read and enjoyed that book. Can’t recall much about a dissident/tout angle. But it is a while.
Mackers, A very astute Republican told me many, many years ago that no one who has ever crossed Adams has gotten away with it. Since that time, I have seen the mask slip more than once and it is not a pretty sight. Cold, calculated and absolutely ruthless.
‘A very astute Republican told me many, many years ago that no one who has ever crossed Adams has gotten away with it. Since that time, I have seen the mask slip more than once and it is not a pretty sight. Cold, calculated and absolutely ruthless.’
Exactly as described by those others who have seen the mask slip. Right circumstances he would have us in secret graves in the morning.
Michaelhenry,
‘Its the way of the future all the touts, hoods and the anti-social are to be described as dissidents.’
Reminds me of the O’Donovan Rossa gem:
‘The heart of the country always goes out to the man who lives and dies an unrepentant rebel. The rebel can rely upon nothing in life; he is sure to be calumniated, he is likely to be robbed, and may even be murdered but let him once go out of life, and he is sure of a fine funeral.’
i think the O'Donnovan Rossa quote is indictive of 800 years of struggle and why Hunger Strike as a weapon of last resort has been so prominent in our history.
We Irish seem to have a gene which only reacts when our backs are aginst the wall and we always seem to be waiting for someone else to carry the load/test the water before we stand up and be counted collectively...
Maybe the attitude of being willing to die on your shield is the only sure way of being immortalised in Irish Republican folklore.
Former IRA volunteer and ex-prisoner, spent 18 years in Long Kesh, 4 years on the blanket and no-wash/no work protests which led to the hunger strikes of the 80s. Completed PhD at Queens upon release from prison. Left the Republican Movement at the endorsement of the Good Friday Agreement, and went on to become a journalist. Co-founder of The Blanket, an online magazine that critically analyzed the Irish peace process. Lead researcher for the Belfast Project, an oral history of the Troubles.
I thought the brother would carry the bag, after all that he's done for him !

If I had to chose an epithet for Adams beginning with C and ending in NT, it's safe to say that "Clint" would not be it.

I would like to buy a vowel please… the letter U. That should help Mickey solve the riddle.
A Belfast guy said to me last night a good election slogan would be 'would you vote the guy who would bury your mother?'

ReplyDeleteBury some-ones mother

AM-
ReplyDeleteIts the way of the future-
all the touts, hoods and the anti-
social are to be describe'd as
dissidents.
People call me a dissident. Never crossed my mind that I was such a thing. As far as I'm concerned the real dissdents are in the Provisional movement.
ReplyDeleteRory
Graycrow-
ReplyDeleteIts your own business what you make of the dissident title and
good luck to you with that-
but people's perception's are a
different matter
Notice your against the Republican
movement [ Provisional ] but don't
say who you do support-
speaks volume's.
