Socialist MP Tibor Szanyi called President László Sólyom a “peasant” on his online blog, Magyar Hírlap reports.
Writing on kapcsolat.hu, Szanyi said Sólyom had gone to Parliament on Monday to witness the election of a new Speaker, heard the applause through, watched others congratulate Béla Katona then turned around and left without a word. “So this peasant is harmful not only to ethnic Hungarians abroad,” he wrote.
In other remarks, Szanyi called Fidesz a disgraceful horde obsessed with gaining power.

Better to be called a peasant than a commie like this scum socialist Szányi reveals himself to be.
LOL nice one-real hypocrite MSZP idiota
This is silly of him.
Look at our history. Unless you are descended from the small aristocratic class, most Hungarians are but one to three generations removed from such a class name.
The gypsies have stolen your land. Are the jews to blame?
Canada wanted your surplus and many of them came
Oh what a mighty blunder they must realise it now!
The lazy bastards cannot work they just do not know how.
Bureuacrats from the Union of Europe wipe their dirty feet
Upon your corrupt, and commie, national balance sheet
The governor of the Magyar bank stashed away his cash
In a private offshore account opened in the name of Gordon Flash
Lendvai, Bajnai, Ferenc, and let me think, Solyóm and the rest
Indicted by the people because they failed and are useless at best.
And now the howling wind sweeps across the pusztas
Empty purses and stomachs and no hope for all of us
With a wretched and useless government more hapless by the day
Surely we should vote and try to do things in a different way?
Kedves “kész vagyok”
Wow. You combine poignancy with poetry! Your post is better recited aloud than read. I think that’s a first for this forum.
