Romantic Ireland's dead and gone it's with Liam Lawlor in the grave

let me first say it's a bad thing when some one dies in an accident, especially in another country with their loved ones far away but...Liam Lawlor has gone to the Great Brown Envelope in the Sky

Bertie Ahern described Mr Lawlor as an engaging, witty and larger than life character. He added that he was a man with a keen intellect with strong views, which he was never afraid to articulate trenchantly.

not to mention the most corrupt TD to grace the Dail/ prison in recent times. I've just done a google search to check out the news headlines and that malarkey and there's all this shit like 'Tributes pour in following death of Liam Lawlor'. Words like colourful being bandied around where corrupt fits so much better. Is that not an indication of one of the things wrong with our country? Liam Lawlor was Public Enemy Number 1 last time I was in Ireland. It sort of parallels in a vague way with Irish people moaning about house/petrol/grocery/childcare/you-name-it-it's-expensive costs, and then continuing to vote in the same f**kers. I mean, I'm not glad he's gone or anything, but c'mon..if you can't say something bad, say nothing at all
