I mean there’s facts and then how you decide to present them let’s not be naive that there is an agenda against her
Catherine Connolly tried to give a human being a second chance. Shoot her, that is the response and reaction of the media and the pro-NATO rugby dad’s.
I think it’s time we all accept that there are no genuinely good candidates in this presidential election, instead of anyone trying to justify or defend the foolish behavior of any of the three.
I don’t think Heather or Jim are being asked any difficult questions yet, Catherine Connolly has been and then her answer is dissected by different media’s. It appears biased to me.
She’s comfortably the most competent of the options available, but the opinion of the president on foreign affairs is fairly important. Her naivety on military spending in the EU, after all-time lows, during Russian aggression is such a bad position to take. Criticising and blaming NATO “expansion” as if it’s not sovereign countries deciding to join because they feel threatened.
FF/FG/Greens/(even SocDems) have someone on staff or in the party who does something that ranges from shady to a court fine: the world rightfully goes mad and calls for accountability.
Catherine Connelly tries to hire and get Garda clearance for a member of an anti-peace process violent movement who has a gun conviction: well you know context and second chances and really we should take a moment before condemning and sure who hasn’t been up before the special criminal court once or twice in their life.
Honestly I thought the hiring a gun smuggler story was going to end her campaign, but she answered the questions on it really well. The person involved did their time, engaged with the system, worked hard on her education and is now working as a civil servant elsewhere.
Either we believe in rehabilitation or we don’t. I’m fine with Gardaí drawing a line and saying “not in Leinster House” – that’s very reasonable. But she defended her decision well.
This election we gave up on achievements and are minimising damage instead.
Facts are a pain in the area to be sure.
From the Independent
[Video footage of Volodymyr Zelensky’s address to the Dáil in April 2022 shows that she didn’t applaud the Ukrainian president](https://m.independent.ie/irish-news/from-gemma-odoherty-to-syria-catherine-connolly-isnt-fond-of-hard-questions-and-she-doesnt-like-some-of-the-easy-ones-either/a292877753.html)
The video footage shows the exact opposite.
Interesting how complaining about blatant lies being published now gets misconstrued as complaining about facts. Almost as if this helps prove the point if nothing else.
