Listening to Senator Buttimer, one would think the political leadership of the country equates to the political leadership of the globe. He should take cognisance of what is happening around the world in places such as Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy. We are in the season of play. If the Senator had his way, he would be one of those in the mob shouting, "Crucify him, crucify him." We know how wrong they were.
