O Cuiv the Man

Eamonn O Cuiv,grandson of Eamonn De Valera ,one of the founders of Fianna Fail is the sole Parliamentry repository of the values of public service which once abounded in the membership of that organisation.He alone of that party ,has his finger on the pulse of the people who would flock in droves to any party he would lead.He is a decent ,honest and upright man of probity and all right thinking people think this .Not for him the false furrow of concern manufactured for T.V. by the chancers who are masquerading as serious politicians,nor the incessant blinking to disguise the blatant untruths being mouthed by the serial abusers of truth ,nor the dramatic arm and hand waving and posing by wannabe political actors to distract attention from the falsehoods they spout.
He will never make my Fear Breaga list.And believe me the stage is set for the greatest display of the species in living memory in the run up to the constitutional vote..
What a pity that he feels honour bound to stay in the Party founded by his grandfather,a Party that since his grandfather's demise has gone out of its way to keep the DeValeras down for fear that they would attain the prominence they so clearly deserve.
If memory serves right he threw up a valid bequest of a farm made top him by a grateful constituent.Do you think that any of the corruption tribunals would have been necessary had he or any of his family control of the Fianna Fail Party these last years.You could bet your bottom dollar that such chicanery would not be tolerated.The pygmies took over from the giants of integrity and we see the results daily.#
He is the only politician of stature who really gives a shite about the ordinary people of this country ,its traditions and our proud tradition of sovereignty .Like his grandfather he is not amenable to bullying and even though I formerly lamented his non participation in the Presidential election ,I am now glad that he didn't run ,as he would have succeeded and would be politically neutered for life,
He can provide a much more vital service for the country by bringing the bleeding obvious to the attention of the electorate and ensuring that the Empire of Angel and Nick is brought to its senses ,just as his grandfather did the the then greatest empire the world had ever seen.
I just fear that ship jumping is not in his genes ,as is so blatantly present in some who have morphed to suit their ambitions to the detriment of the ships they have abandoned ,and that hen may be  slapped down again by the pygmies who captain the Fianna Fail ship which is indistinguishable from the government parties and is heading for electoral Armageddon unless it changes tack.
Listen Dev.now is the time.Hit the sliotar on the run and land the laurels.In a very few years you will be too old.
