Finance Minister Noonan attacks Bertie Ahern, Brian Cowen for bankrupting Ireland, Inc.

Mr Noonan, we are all aware of the short comings of the past pack of crooks that governed Ireland.You were elected to fix the problem,enforce the law and see to it that they rot in jail.Stop the bitching and do your job.Are you aware what your government is hiring as doctors,you have no room to talk.FF, FG.same plan, screw the people and get rich doing it.

Correct me if I am wrong -- FM Noonan claimed the next Taoiseach job, based on prior possession, and prior fiduciary responsibility.

True, but get on with solving the problem. Disown Cowan's pledge to pay the debts of Ireland's privately owned banks to EU banks, making the sovereign debt - which Ireland is honor bound to pay - manageable.

sweet talk won't solve it - hangings will.
