I'm about to post another article that presents the facts - I found it while searching for this story. ;)
I hope you enjoy paying higher taxes and suffering greater market, business and property regulation under an FG/Labor government. Poverty is character building after all. And, besides, by virtue of your increased abortion and divorce rights, everyone will be having so much fun they'll hardly notice the unemployment and collapsing property markets.
FF is committed to the peaceful achievement of Irish unity, a goal that is thankfully closer due in no small measure to Bertie's efforts. For this alone he deserves support from people of goodwill. In addition, he has consistently supported the pro-growth economic policies in Ireland directly responsible for the country's current prosperity. I have no idea what a Corporatist is, but if Bertie is one than perhaps I am as well. Finally, Ahern and FF have been a bulwark against the creeping secularization of Irish culture that, in the absenece of resistance, will inevitably lead to liberalized abortion rights, access to ready divorce and the complete secularization of the schools. With an FG/Labor government, each of these developments will come to pass, to the glee of the EU establishment.
It is possible to support Irish unity without being a supporter of Sinn Fein/IRA. It also is possible to oppose the provos while prefering that half wits refrain from defaming people who may be sympathetic to them with playground epithets. This is a conservative board that is, or should be, dedicated to fair play and decency. Perhaps you didn't get the memo.
