  • The bias of the compare is disgracefull, she never once questioned the yes guy like she did the no guy.

  • If Ireland wants to be out, or the UK, let them. Long live the union!

  • oh yes thats why the S&D is the biggest grouping in the EU Parl, oh wait its the EPP, a collection of centre-right partys

  • The vote for right-wing former social democratic parties went down. The vote for genuine left-wing parties, such as the Socialist Party in Ireland and Die Linke in Germany, was significantly up, you fucking idiot.

  • vote no to lisbon/nama

  • I'm with the Irish. Vote no on October 2nd.

  • Yes to Lisbon. No to Liars.

  • 1:00:05 Joe - "I didn't actually use the term mass destruction, you used it"

    Prionsias - "U can look at the tape Joe and you'll find that you used it first." Well I looked back at the tape, and Prionsias was the one and only person who said it.

    So Prionsias,

    well what can I say,

    you're a bit of a bullyish prick.

    this is the way you try to win a debate? focusing on somethink small and arguing off the point.schoolground tactics, heightened by the sight of Joe sulking afterwards

  • "i want to rebuild the EU" HAHAHA of u go joe, 2 bad the people of europe elected the those "right wingers" even in the midst of economic meltdown, socialist vote actualyl went down in teh last EU elections!hah

  • the yes side of course :)
