If it’s Thursday it must be a brethern day

When word went out earlier that Jim Corr was going to be on the Last Word on Todayfm you could hear radio switches click and kettles boil in anticipation. It is nearly a year since we were all agog listening to Jim’s intervention into the Lisbon Treaty Campaign.
Well Jim was back today to tell Matt Cooper he was right and the world is imploding – and we’ll end up with a world government, world currency and some sort of global domination and control freakery. You can listen to it here.
Now this interview was only one part of my audio feast today because as I slumbered this morning I happened to wake up to the Northside tones of one Royston Brady on Newstalk with Ger and Claire. (No sign of Ivan yet thank goddess, Ger Gilroy is bravely battling on – more about eh, Ivan, eh soon!)
Now if you think a Corr Brother is a bit off the wall well a Brady Brother is not too far behind if you listen to this assessment (file embedded below). McCreevy is wanted back for a start, and Royston likes New Labour (whoever they were) if Fianna Fáil won’t have him back. (I noted that Ger or Claire tweeted that Royston was being very indiscreet off air – he continued on air in such a manner also. Actually I wonder if Royston is looking to be the tabloid Noel Whelan!)

Wow – Jim quotes Louis T. McFadden as a source.
This Louis T. McFadden – raging anti-Semite and 1930s conspiracy theorist.
And he quote-mines Milton Friedman, misrepresenting Friedman’s opinions about the causes of the Great Depression (roughly, as I understand it, that – out of incompetence rather than malice – the Fed reacted incorrectly to the Wall Street Crash and subsequent bank runs by contracting the money supply instead of expanding it).
And ole Jimbo seems to be ignorant of the fact that the US President appoints the Board of the Federal Reserve. So Jim is entirely wrong in saying it is “not at all” under the control of the US Government (the Fed is neither fully public nor fully private). Then again, the US Government are Masonic Illuminati space lizards anyway, so I guess my point is moot.
And as for Ambrose Evans-Pritchard – he thinks that the Clintons offed Vince Foster and that the FBI and other Federal agencies was complicit in the Oklahoma City bombing, so it’s hardly surprising he’s seeing one world governments under every shrub and subclause.
I wonder if Matt Cooper will have anyone on to rebutt Jim’s conspiracy theory Gish gallop, or will he condemn us all to another year of infuriating arguments about the Coming NWO with Dublin taxi drivers?
You might be waiting a while for, ah, morning lie-ins with, ah, Ivan. I’ve heard Newstalk are thinking of giving him the evening commuter slot, and moving Hookie to the early shift.
What has happened to Ger Gilroy, does anyone know?
