Filthy Durty Postcards: 2 – Spineless RTE Bastards
5 minutes after reading Suzy's post on nekkid Brian Cowen "picturegate" (and RTÉ's craven and vomit-inducing climb down) I distilled my rage and fury into the below. It took me about 126 seconds but I feel much the better for it. I'm secretly hanging it on the walls of Limerick City Gallery of Art tomorrow evening.
Might I just add. Cock. Balls. Fanny. And R.I.P. Irish satirical play & mischief-making.
Update: Fergal is asking (via Twitter) that the nation be "wallpapered with naked Cowens". So tomorrow, before breakfast, hell…before anything, get the pens and paper out and create your own hideous nudey portrait of our immortal leader. Then saunter out (whistling a merry tune as you go) and stick it to the nearest public wall, lamp-post, passer-by etc. Do it. For the sake of the nation's children.
Further Update: Damien is demanding much the same thing. Viene una tormenta.

Choking with laughter here. Absolutely genius! I love it.
I love the “excited rectal discharge” added, as an afterthought, with a different pen. I like to imagine your good lady wife saying “Wait! You forgot the excited rectal discharge!Give it here….now dear, isn’t that much better?”
The good lady wife is in bed. As is the nipper. I’m alone here with my rage, my pencils, a selection of biros, and some rectal discharge of my own that I plan to post to RTE.
I suggest that your postcard should be sent, with as sober a written complaint as you can manage on the obverse, to the Editor, RTE News.
Mine.
Or else I could commend them on their apology and articulate my profound disgust at the disgusting besmirching of our Taoiseach. A follow up postcard to RTE would then read:
“Sirs. Imagine my horror when I realised that the reverse of the postcard I originally sent you (which, I confess to my shame, I failed to study in any significant detail) contained a revolting and grossly indecent portrait of An Taoiseach. How such a thing came to pass I cannot begin to imagine. It was the one thing I didn’t want to happen.”
I mean, what were the odds?
Allan, Great caricature and cracking post.

Why thank you. Your Pissing on Bishops post was so prescient you should consider doing some random numbers game with a big jackpot this weekend.
Say, Bingo.

Excellent artistry, Fustar! Am livid, but calming down now that I see so many people are equally incensed. I look forward to seeing Nekkid Taoiseach’s all over town.
