TAOISEACH BERTIE AHERN RESIGNS Bertie Ahern is to step down as Taoiseach and leader of Fianna Fáil on May 6th, he announced this morning. Amid mounting pressure about his personal finances, Mr Ahern said he was proud of his political achievements but denied any wrongdoing. Flanked by cabinet colleagues including Brian Cowen, Mary Harney, Martin Cullen, Noel Dempsey, Brian Lenihan, Mary Harney and John Gormley, Mr Ahern said a "constant barrage of commentary" was distracting the work of Government. He said his decision was "solely motivated by what is best for the people" and was "solely a personal decision...inspired by the desire to refocus the political agenda". "I've been priviliged to serve my community, party and country for many years," an emotional Mr Ahern told reporters in Government Buildings. Never in all the time that I served in politics have I ever put my personal interest ahead of the public good He said he was proud of his work on the Northern Ireland peace process, on successive social partnership agreements, on delivering a modern economy and of Ireland's involvement in the European Union. He also said he had "ended the myth that Fianna Fáil is incapable of sustaining a coalition government" and paid tribute to both Mr Gormley and Mary Harney. However, the work of Government had been "distracted by my life, my lifestyle and my finances". Mr Ahern was set to come under pressure in Dáil this afternoon as the Opposition parties sought an explanation for evidence given to the Mahon tribunal by his former secretary. The Opposition was due press Mr Ahern on the sterling payments lodged to his Irish Permanent building society account by Gráinne Carruth. The tribunal is investigating claims that Mr Ahern received money from property developer Owen O'Callaghan. The claim by Tom Gilmartin has been repeatedly denied by Mr O'Callaghan and by Mr Ahern himself. However the tribunal invetigations have thrown up questions on lodgements to Mr Ahern'spersonal accounts in the early 1990s. The total value of lodgements and other transactions that have to date been queried by the tribunal in its public inquiries into Mr Ahern's finances, exceeds £452,800. The lodgements and transactions occurred between 1988 and 1997, although the vast bulk of the money was lodged in the period to 1995. The total is the equivalent of €886,830 in today's terms, applying the consumer price index for the period 1994 to 2008. The total excludes lodgements where the tribunal has been shown the money was transferred from one bank account to another, but includes such lodgements where neither Mr Ahern nor the tribunal have been able to find independent confirmation as to what occurred. Mr Ahern said he would be "comprehenisely dealing with these matters at the tribunal" and denied any wrongdoing. "Never in all the time that I served in politics have I ever put my personal interest ahead of the public good," he added. "I have never received a corrupt payment...I have done no wrong and wronged no one". Last week, Ms Harney and Mr Gormley said Mr Ahern needed to clarify the situation in relation to his finances.

Lisbon Treaty- Ahern meets the CFR (3 of 3) Throughout history violent take-overs of countries have often failed and cost many empires far more than they were worth. Wouldn't it be easier to create an empire through the guise of democracy. Vote away your constitution, your sovereignty and your power. The EU was first set up as a trade agreement, then a common currency. And now a federal state is being created. Thats not what we thought the aim of Europe was. Slowly and surely we've been made to think of Europe as a nation. And the lisbon treaty is the final piece of the puzzle. The brave men who fought and died for Ireland's freedom from the British Empire are rolling in their graves as the Irish people not only allow the republic they fought for become a province of a larger federal state, but may actually vote for it! Our friends in France and the Netherlands already said no to this, but still they come, slithering to our door. Common goals work, allegencies work, but uniting states under one constitution does not. Remember the USSR. Look at China. Citizens of the US have far less control over their lives and laws than citizens of smaller European democracies. What if the proposed European President wasn't so benevolant? It's like the hull of a ship, if one floods there are boundaries to slow the spread of water. It's these boundaries that halted the democratically elected Hitler and others. Don't think history can repeat itself? If we don't learn from it, it will. WE DON'T NEED A CONSTITUTION FOR EUROPE. We're fine without it, thank you. This is the most important vote of our generation. Vote this treaty in and they won't ask you twice. DEFEND YOUR LIBERTIES, YOUR DEMOCRACY, OUR COUNTRY. MO CHAIRDE, SEND THIS TOTALITARIAN, UNDEMOCRATIC PIECE OF GARBAGE BACK TO BRUSSELS WITH A FIRM "NO WAY, NOT ON MY WATCH!"

Bertie Ahern Song The Irish premier, Bertie Ahern, has announced his resignation following controversy over his private financial affairs. Ahern told a press conference in Dublin he would bow out as taoiseach on May 6, after becoming the first Irish leader ever to address the US Congress. He denied any wrongdoing but said the financial controversy was diverting attention from the job of governing the country and the work of his ruling Fianna Fáil party. "I know in my heart of hearts that I have done no wrong," he said, adding that he was standing down "in the interests of the country and his party". "I have been reflecting upon pursuing this course of action for some time. This is solely a personal decision." For more: http://doghaus.blogs.ie/ DogHaus are tax compliant.
