The 18 religious orders (now 19) were indemnified by the govt. which is against the Irish Constitution and the two nuns with Minister Woods have not spent a day behind bars. Apathy rather than empathy is Ireland's middle name.Hanora Brennannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-79164369190746424852014-06-11T05:43:04.437-07:002014-06-11T05:43:04.437-07:00So true and so well put.
It was all about shame,...So true and so well put.<br /><br />It was all about shame,the favourite weapon of the Roman church.<br /><br />The conditioning over the years from 1172 Cashel made sure we as a society carried our yoke and behaved as the perfect slaves we were deemed to be by the Pope in 1172. Who speaks of us being declared slaves by the Pope? Who gave him the right to declare all children of Eire slaves and hand us over to the King of England to do the dirty work of keeping us down. All the while the Roman church - abuser- in true abuser pattern keeps using the "I love you" mantra. Then more gaslighting tactics, more trauma episodes, more suffering, more pain and that will subdue the slaves forever.It the Stockholm Syndrome. People bonded with their abusers, did their bidding lest they be killed. etc, etc.<br />Now is the time for all to snap out of this slavery state- we know how difficult it is from Patty Hearst, etc.Portiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456376599507810104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-10424612126634319962014-06-06T13:06:07.815-07:002014-06-06T13:06:07.815-07:00A sobering analysis, but one that resonates given ...A sobering analysis, but one that resonates given the news from Tuam.

Firstly my i commend ...Many thanks for your suppor<br /><br />Firstly my i commend you on you bravery in Supporting a Gurrier Terrier .... that took guts kid!<br /><br />Apologies for the delaying in replying; the moon is in Uranus and I spent a good while barking at it these last few nights.<br /><br />A brief history that explains my mission.<br /><br />.......My sister gave birth in the street to five lovely pups this time last year. She got done for littering in public, which just wasn't fair, and probably got me started in politics - I just felt I had to do something about this. Stand on my own four feet for what is right! Granted, my sister is a thoroughbred bitch, but this wasn't on. Those little pups turned 7 last week; they'll be 10 in August, and they deserve better. Politics is a dog eat dog business and people say I'm barking mad to get involved, but I've been led around by people for too long- The dogs in the street will tell you that!<br /><br />My manifesto includes the following:<br /><br />- more transparent pricing policy on pet foods in supermarket multiples. Cat food consistently gets better shelf coverage and better pricing. This makes cat ownership more attractive and discriminates against dogs (and other consumers of dog food).<br /><br />- an end to the portrayal of dogs as stupid, hungry layabouts on TV and elsewhere. Scooby-doo is a disgrace; he sold out the good name of the noble Great Dane for some snacks and a bit of fame. If elected, I will seek to redress this perception of dogs through better, more balanced cartoons.<br /><br />- better screening of those seeking to study veterinary medicine. Any applicant with fingers larger than a standard Denny sausage will be barred from training or practising as a vet. As a transitional measure, existing practising vets with large fingers will be confined to examining the front end of all small animals (except cats).<br /><br />- an end to the "pooper-scoope"r policy. Dogs have a right to poop where they wish without fear of reprisal. I am supported in this by numerous 'shoe-cleaner' product manufacturers who have seen their business decline in recent years due to a lack of good quality, well camouflaged dog shit in the streets.<br /><br />- likewise, with regard to "arse-sniffing"; it's part of our culture and an entitlement. I would like to extend the sniffing policy to cover the sniffing of arses of all species. <br /><br />- justice for my cousin Spotty Hund who was kicked in the arse at the back of a pub by a drunk who though he was a one-eyed monster walking backwards. Spotty developed complications as a result, including a half a haemorrhoid - which isn't a whole pile - and now he looks like a bulldog when he tries to move his bowel.<br /><br />- registration of the "Gurrier Terrier" (TM) as a recognised pedigree breed with the Irish Kennel Club (Gadharchumann na hEireann).<br />http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gurrier<br /><br />Must dash, as we are going out looking for the man who shot my Paw<br /><br />Regards<br /><br /><br />Edvard<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12686652800226521801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-33463962203485433972014-04-06T04:22:06.977-07:002014-04-06T04:22:06.977-07:00Makes me yearn for the wild untamed ConnemaraMakes me yearn for the wild untamed ConnemaraHanora Brennannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-57169587225509184752014-03-26T16:40:21.256-07:002014-03-26T16:40:21.256-07:00Crikey - heart stopping stuff.i jumped myself a fe...Crikey - heart stopping stuff.i jumped myself a few times during the clip . lolAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17965634865396903364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-21907082973380836022014-03-18T21:08:51.779-07:002014-03-18T21:08:51.779-07:00As I know there are many people out there just try...As I know there are many people out there just trying to make ends meet every month and Electricity is a huge worry for families today with prices so high, I would just like to say that personally I found Airtricity prices extremely high and as for the Customer Service provided it was worse than atrocious and it is impossible to speak to any manager if you have a serious problem. In addition, I have not found them cheaper in overalI terms as the prices they advertise are not at all what corresponds when you receive your bill and if you are in any kind of financial difficulty I would avoid them at all cost as they Do Not care or have any empathy for anyone in these difficult times. <br />Personally I would recommend Bord Gais for the way it looks after it's customers, especially those who are struggling financially .Bord Gais are really helpful unlike Airtricity, they are also very understanding and will work with you unlike Airtricity where its all or nothing. In comparison to Bord Gais who will always find an arrangement that helps the client out and takes away one of the main worries that many families are currently experiencing on a daily basis. <br />This is just my personal view perhaps others have had good experiences with Airtricity but even if you find that their rate is the lowest on the market,<br />in the end they are not as they will add all sorts of extra charges on your bill. Again I would like to stress the extreme difficulty in dealing with them due to their basic lack of human understanding. <br />The cheapest is not always the best way to go sometimes it is better to pay that little bit extra to a company who looks after it's customer and genuinely care as you are also paying for this service which Airtricity categorically does not provide. So I believe so win out in the long run with a company like Bord Gais. Again this is just my personal opinion and feedback from many others that I have received.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-740884086966617011.post-74584171443138293052014-03-12T07:01:37.413-07:002014-03-12T07:01:37.413-07:00Love it.
