In Ireland ,a political false trader......

...such as a Communist or socialist or Provo agitator will find it hard to contain his hatred of yourself when he is amongst his real friends. They have created and built nothing in this country. Their plans exist only on paper.He knows who his friends are and when it is safe to attack. In Ireland that is some tiny group which comprises no more than ten or twelve people offering the "three steps to heaven".

By the time of his profession du foi,he will already know that he and his group,both,are  irrelevant and destined for obscurity and that his cause and theirs is lost.

If he shows open contempt to someone who is or was a great man in some way-greatness is easily borne and never speaks its name in our wretched backwater -he thought that that person would rescue his situation. 

That 'saviour'  realised early that he was either an unblemished thug such as O Riordain or a paid police informer such as O Murchu or a dangerous nuisance such as Mc Cartan.

In his final moments,even this self-styled revolutionary philosopher will realise that Christian charity is the true and only characteristic of greatness and mankind's sole defining grace which sets him apart from other creatures.

Politicians and truth

If a politician insults you in public,that is his true voice like the rising falsetto of a Thatcherite scream. He values only his public image. That is why he is drawn to public life and human intercourse. 

....

A politician only cares about his public image and his standing in the community. If a leftist guru insults you in front of his soulmates,it is because he finds you an obstacle to his ascent to power. If he is an Irish revolutionary socialist or Provo type or armed man,he equates a great man with a litterateur. 

If you are treated in this fashion by a politician or other person or a Provo,turn your face against him or her and have nothing more to do with him. His mien is a sign that he fears rejection at the polls. 

Alternatively,his or her career before the electorate may have run its course and new contenders have emerged to hoodwink, cajole and mislead the public on behalf of revolutionary causes. The portents can be read easily by cognoscenti. 

Politics are in Ireland extensions of the art of subterfuge and contrarian thinking, political upset and revolutionary thinking.

Basta! Non sequire!
