Lenihan Drops The Ball

My previous unconditional admiration for Finance Minister Brian Lenihan has taken a knock. He introduced NAMA legislation to save our heroic bankers and builders. Costing just €90 billion, this is money any taxpayer should be glad to pay.
The Lenihan goes and pees on our parade. Sez he: "But Mr Lenihan insisted that the agency would not be used to benefit property developers or banks."
WTF?!
Doesn't he know these were the very people who gave us the unparalleled growth and opportunities of the Celtic Tiger era? And now he wants to stab them in the back. For shame, Mr. Lenihan.
