Spinning Kenny

Enda Kenny has gone on record to rule out any idea of a coalition involving his party and Sinn Fein. So repulsed is Enda by Grizzly and the lads that he would not contemplate making a deal with them to form a government. Even if it jeopardized his ultimate goal of becoming Taoiseach of a government in which Fine Gael would be the majority party.

So it was a measure of the moral fabric of the man to see him last week coming to the aid of Sinn Fein who had been so viciously and maliciously slighted by Willie O’ Dea. What selflessness he showed in putting aside his obvious revulsion to come to their aid and make a stand for better standards in public office. What mental turmoil he must have endured in wrestling with his conscience, what steel and fortitude he displayed in being able to park the ideological chasm which exists between the parties in order to make the case for Ministerial accountability.

Oh Enda what a beacon of hope you are for our Parliamentary system. For Democracy itself. For if not Enda, who will fight the good fight, who will drag us out of this unethical quagmire? You see Enda is guided by a moral compass us mere mortals do not possess, a compass that led him through the dark night of the soul and into bed with Sinn Fein.

In the public interest, don’t you know.

For everyone's sake let’s hope he used a condom. Who put the bag over whose head is not clear at this point.
