Sickening cowardice on O’Donoghue’s expenses

IN his letter (September 21), John O’Driscoll urges us for Ireland’s sake to resist the temptation to “take it out on the rotten assembly in Leinster House” by rejecting the Lisbon Treaty.

I disagree. Are one-quarter of TDs worthy of re-election?

Not only has John O’Donoghue spent €500,000 of taxpayers’ money on his travel and other expenses, he now has increased his office staff from three to 10, which seems like a further €500,000 of taxpayers’ money going nowhere except in promoting the O’Donoghue bandwagon and gravytrain.
