Brian Cowen is a very good leader caught in a difficult situation that was instigated by Bertie Aherne who conviently jumped ship. Brian Cowen had balls to step into that role.
Hello! U must be from dublin, where people are brought up on the sides of roads! he doesnt have any sisters!!! nd we're proud to have him as our taoiseach, he's a really nice man, and a fierce good politician, it's just that he became the taoiseach at a real wrong time. It's the WORST global economic recession ever and just incase u dont know..............global means WORLDWIDE!!
I wonder how many people clapping that day have lost their job's, had their house's repossessed and are living hand to mouth? May not so easily amused now 'me boy's!!'
IN FAIRNESS NOT TO MANY OTHER WORLD LEADERS,HAVE THIS KIND OF CRAIC WITH THEIR OWN;-) BUT HEY EVEN THE SINGING HE IS DOING AND THE CRAIC HE IS GENERATING IS PRICELESS!!
Cowen did some course in America,O Keefe should use whatever expertise he may or may not have picked up to help Eden College in its present state,recognition withdrawn by Dept of Education.O Keefe stated on back to the bog tour May 2008 that Cowen was very energising.He did not say exactly in what way Cowen was energising,maybe at acting the fool as above.
Cowen and O keefe did a dance called the Bogland Shuffle around the stage afterwards.O Keefe had no respect for the people of North West Cork associating with boglanders.
Bishop Casey and Michael Cleary used to sing in similar fashion. What is it with this country. We love a fool singing. Shure he is doing no harm. Right.(Wrong)
jesus, your right, he does sound like Dustin the Turkey. Dustin for the Taoiseachs job Sure he couldn't be any worse, and if he played up we could cook for xmas dinner.
Hold on 2 seconds people!!! I am nit a fan of brian cowen, however, your all missing one very important piece of the puzzle here...... Bertie-scandal-aherne. The damage was done a long time ago, mc creevy has a lot to answer for too,The financial regulator? What regulation? I would hate to leave ireland but Im considering leaving this place to these gangsters
It was in the year of 2008 that Cowen went back to the bog,back to the bog, Cowen the clown went back to the bog, OKeffe,OKeffe lapdog to thne chief also went back to the bog, Back to the bog,back to the bog,Cowen the clown went back to the bog.
@emilyseldest I have to ask do you know what FF has brought to this country in the time it has been in charge? While it's bad now it will not be in the near future our economy is already picking up. Like it or not all of us owe our free second level education to FF. People like Sean Lemass and Jack Lynch turned this country into a modern state. DeValera certainly did use his Republican supporters to get into power but DeValera and FF in general dicthed SF and the IRA in the 20s to form FF
It saddens me that the leader of our country can not bring this side of this personality to the table at all times.We are stuck with a lackluster man who simply can not tell us like it is.The Irish people need someone they can relate to,have a pint with even. He should really take a leaf out of Bertie's book,at least he could connect with his people.
least we know what he is doing with most of his time instead of helping out the country..writing songs maybe just maybe one day might become a x factor winner:D:D:D
People can say what they want about him but at the end of the day we the people of this country voted his party into government in 2007. Face up and deal with it
@yam500 they are just as culpable, but why would i refer to them when this is a video of brian cowen? has the notion that most comments would ordinarily relate to the subject matter of the video in question escaped you? maybe you're new to youtube? in that case i'm sure you'll catch on real quick. I must also point out that no I am not on smack. believe it or not that narcotic is not widely available in ireland. not yet anyway. maybe you could hook us up some supply?
@yam500 Also in case you think the abbreviations or text message spelling is an Irishman being ignorant. RUclips only allows 500 characters, and lets face it two messages would only look kind of silly! Don't you think? Like OMG, LOL, LOL, LOL.
I wonder was the swimming pool paid for from his own money or ours?I If it was paid for from our money,wouldnt an honest person acknpwledge this and thank the Irish tax payer.The bogland song is appaling.
If only they knew then what way things were going to go for this country of ours, they wouldn't be cheering him on then! Should be interesting to see what kind of reaction this guy gets when he goes polling in the election next year. I sense a disaster in the making.
O Keffe had a chance to educaye and smarten up this crowd of rustics locked in the past,but he chose to lower himself to their level.What would Sean Moylan think of this bufoonery?
"Cos it wasnt up to date enough, for a member of the dail" and that sums up everything that was wrong with who was running this country, Brian Cowan your a national disgrace and long may you suffer for what youve done to this country
Class !!! Go Brian, We're all behind you!!! You'll be THE BEST TAOISEACH this country has EVER seen!!!
S Cronly the irony
We'll done Brian what about a pint of Guinness the next time I see you keep it lit 🇨🇮
Are u still as proud ????

Go wau u f$$$$$fool
bloody brilliant,, legend of a man
the leader of the country........ MY GOD!!!
Last words of the song: "It's nice to know that you'll be buried by a member of the Dáil". How apt for our times.
Could you imagine if Brian Cowen and Mary Harney had a child together. The elephant man would be have some serious competition then.
O Keefe is President and Chairman of a place called Eden College.can you imagine what the reaction would be if Cowen turned up to greet his lapdog.
Hello! U must be from dublin, where people are brought up on the sides of roads! he doesnt have any sisters!!! nd we're proud to have him as our taoiseach, he's a really nice man, and a fierce good politician, it's just that he became the taoiseach at a real wrong time.

O keffe joined in the charade
and sang along with the Bogland Brigade,
the day that Clown Cowen came back to the bog
I wonder how many people clapping that day have lost their job's, had their house's repossessed and are living hand to mouth? May not so easily amused now 'me boy's!!'
This is Ballymagash resurrected.O everybody came to town when Cowen the clown came back to the bog.
Well just how apt is the last line now "...it's nice to know you'll be buried now, by a member of the Dáil"
The lot of them are burying us!
IN FAIRNESS NOT TO MANY OTHER WORLD LEADERS,HAVE THIS KIND OF CRAIC WITH THEIR OWN;-) BUT HEY EVEN THE SINGING HE IS DOING AND THE CRAIC HE IS GENERATING IS PRICELESS!!
And they all sang along as he sang another bogland song,
The day Clown Cowen came back to the bog,back to the bog.
Cowen did some course in America,O Keefe should use whatever expertise he may or may not have picked up to help Eden College in its present state,recognition withdrawn by Dept of Education.O Keefe stated on back to the bog tour May 2008 that Cowen was very energising.He did not say exactly in what way Cowen was energising,maybe at acting the fool as above.
Its an insult to the office of Taoiseach to call this gobdaw by this title which obviosly he has no respect for.
Cowen and O keefe did a dance called the Bogland Shuffle around the stage afterwards.O Keefe had no respect for the people of North West Cork associating with boglanders.
this is what it would be like if david brent was the prime minister of england
+Hugh Jass bravo
Bishop Casey and Michael Cleary used to sing in similar fashion. What is it with this country. We love a fool singing. Shure he is doing no harm. Right.(Wrong)
WHAT A MUPPET
jesus, your right, he does sound like Dustin the Turkey. Dustin for the Taoiseachs job Sure he couldn't be any worse, and if he played up we could cook for xmas dinner.

Cowen the clown went back to the bog,
OKeffe,OKeffe lapdog to thne chief also went back to the bog,
Back to the bog,back to the bog,Cowen the clown went back to the bog.

I m sure he was singing bogland songs in the Dail bar while the bailout was being planned.What a gobdaw the clown is.
