Michael D Higgins at it again

The personal insults directed at Michael D for his appearance say more about the people spewing them than they say about the President.

Anyone who quotes Gript should be taken as seriously as Gript: i.e. not very.

I agree with Michael D on a lot of issues, and over the years he's been a great speaker of his mind.

I don't agree with him on defence policy. Ireland does need to up its game and stop the country from being used as a base for Russian troublemaking. Ships have been sent into Irish waters by Russia to tamper with underwater cables, and Russian planes have been flying into Irish airspace to test NATO response times, secure in the knowledge that Ireland has no jet intercept capabilities and defence of its airspace has been quietly outsourced to the Brits. Not a good look for a supposedly independent country that's supposed to be able to face up to its international responsibilities.

That's why what he says can cause real damage.

In reality, he's a senile hobbit in a luxurious retirement home, living off the taxpayers all his life.


Sounds very like the pro Israel posters attacking Michael D online in recent weeks.

As I am equally embarrassed by a lot of the simpering woke virtue signaling I see on here


Michael D Jr-a fella who never had a real job in his life trying to finagle a $44 M war chest to fund his woke DEI projects.

Sounds about right



You got 44m "warchest" for "woke DEI projects" from that Indo article?

Similar rhetoric to that used on him by Zionists. He called those genocidal maniacs out. A great President.

Thinking Michael D is a total idiot and a disgraceful president doesn't amount to Zionism.

"I think it is time for Irish-America to acknowledge that it was both complicit in and resistant to injustices," he wrote in the 'private' letter published by Irish Central.

Be careful mocking

Worst flu I've had in my life-lasted a solid 3 weeks

Rossfan

A few useful eejits or Israelibots obviously got their orders.

The man has more dignity in his little finger than all the War criminal murderers and their supporters put together.
Gript.... enough said.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Integrity, like his backing of despotic regimes in Iran, Cuba and Venezuela.

Be OK if he backed Saudi Arabia, Bahrain etc?
Play the game and play it fairly

I'm back to normal now but thanks for your concern.

Looking forward to Trump and Musk driving you all mad for the next 4 years

Pointing out that's the language the Zionists used to describe him. You learnt well..

It's not his job to back anyone.
His problem is that he likes anyone who is anti-American or anti-West.

If Saudi and Bahrain declared a jihad against the Great Satan, he'd be drooling over them.
