Wow.  After eleven years as Taoiseach, Bertie Ahern is to resign next month. He said that it has nothing to do with the ongoing investigation of his finances to see if he took backhanders hen he was in office. "I know in my heart of hearts I have done no wrong and wronged no-one." said Ahern today.  All I know so far is from the BBC, but I wonder what the real reason is?

Do you know this or are you just repeating unproven gossip?  I'm not defending him at all... its just that "everybody knows he's on the take" isn't proof!
Oh... how the hell are you man? Smile
