The Irish "lunatics" were elected by citizens who liked their politics. There's never been any question about the honesty of Irish elections, so we need to look at this seriously.

Be careful, when you hand power to lunatics with a single agenda they're more likely to become authoritarian than conciliatory. Soon you'll have laws criminalizing speech that disagrees with Green Party dogma.
Sadly, your post is spot on.
Wow! An airline CEO with common sense. RYA just may be a place to put the old DAL funds.
