Our president does feck all anyway, I don't even see the point in us having one. Our Taoiseach is the one who runs the country

No Enda Kenny is the PM,he does all the work. The president does nothing except greet important people,sign laws and "protect" the constitution. The Taoiseach (pm) does all the important things.
