O, anong say nyo, ayaw na rin ni Gloria Arroyo ang charter change ngayon.
Statement of the President On Charter Change
I commend the decision of the House leadership as an act of statesmanship to unify not only the two chambers of the legislature but the whole nation around the issue of Charter change.
I thank Speaker Joe de Venecia and his valiant allies in the House for heeding the voice of national consolidation and unity, without sacrificing their high vision of political renewal.
It is time to gather together all the energies of our people for the continuing work ahead—maintaining our economic strength, ensuring the social payback of economic reforms, and helping distressed communities back to their feet.
Philippine democracy will always find the proper time and opportunity for Charter reform at a time when the people deem it ripe and needful, and in the manner they deem proper. The nation must consolidate now and I call upon all our institutions and sectors to stand as one for the country’s future.
Cebu’s Antonio Cuenco apologized for supporting Con-Ass; other Cebu solons unrepentant. Click here.
With only 20 congressmen present in the session, House sent to archives the unconstitutional resolution calling for a senateless Con-Ass. Click here for full story.
are we seeing a ‘domino effect’ now?.. it seems that one-by-one the chips are falling… leading to that glorious day we are all waiting for..
remember when Erap was ousted?.. one-by-one ‘his chips fell’ also..
there must have been a very SERIOUS THREAT MIDGET and her DOGS is feeling right now..
day by day, we’ll WATCH & PRAY!…
Stupid is as stupid does. The Great Switik, after feeling the heat, is now dropping the hot potato only when she is sure that no one is going to hold it for her to burn his/her hand. Otherwise, she will bide with time to renew her call for her initiative, the legion of Satan, to push through with their pledged support for the ChaCha even when they have even tried to have the 1987 Constitution work for Filipinos despite its laws.
Please, no more giving this bogus president the chance to try to prove her worth or ability to keep her promises because SHE CANNOT DO THE JOB as she is only interested in bragging that she is the greatest and fairest of them all who have served as president of the Philippines even when she is proving to be the worst!!! This Great Switik cannot lead, much less rule. She will probably be make a legitimate candidate for the mental hospital for imagining herself as a princess or a queen by claiming ascendancy even from Alexander the Great! Susmaryopes!!!
I MAY NOT BE THERE IN THE RALLY THIS SUNDAY, BUT I INTEND TO FAST (NO FOOD AND LIQUID FOR 24 HOURS) AS A SHOW OF CAMARADERIE TO ALL THOSE WILLING TO BURN THEIR CANDLES AGAINST THE GREAT SWITIK AND STOP THEM FROM EATING EXPENSIVE LECHON EVERYDAY PAID WITH TAXPAYERS’ MONEY!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
NO MORE TRAPOS! NO MORE SWITIK! NO MORE FATSOS! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
patalsikin ang bansot!
“patalsikin ang bansot! ”
I support that lokal vocal!
“patalsikin ang bansot!”
NGAYON NA!
p.s. TO jdv:
Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Kita mo…di iniwan ka na naman! Sige halik pa sa paa ni Bansot! You got what you deserve! HIK! HIK! HIK! Sayaw na lang tayo ng Ballroom Cha-Cha!
This bansot is really nakakalalaki!
She’s toying with the Filipino people, she sees how she can dupe them by threatening, pressuring, dividing the nation and when she thinks, people are not buying, she back tracks, tapos bobolahin ang mga taong bayan.
Feed her to the crocodiles NOW!
Akbayan solon warns against CONAss revival with majority refusal to restore Rule 105
(Instead of the hollow statement by the bogus president, the following should be the rightful statement against Gloria’s and Joe de Venecia’s Cha Cha crap:)
I commend the decision of the people as an act of courage to unify not only the priviledged and the underpriviledged classes in our society but also all the sectors in the country against the attempted power grab by the House leadership under the sponsorship of no less than the most bogus of all bogus politicians, Gloria Macapal-Arroyo.
I thank Ellen Tordesillas, Manuel L Quezon 3rd, Dean Jorge Bocobo and each and every commenter in their blog for heeding the voice of national contempt against what could have been the greatest swindle of all time.
It is time to gather together all the energies of our people for the continuing fight ahead—maintaining our moral strength, ensuring that these dirty politicians pay for their lies, their brazen attempt to decieve the people and for failing to act in the interest of the general public, particularly the victims of typhoon Reming.
Philippine democracy will always find in its heart the moral courage to topple Gloria Macapal and her henchmen in Congress in order to reform the society especially at a time when the people feel the deep and brazen betrayal of the ideals of democracy. The nation must consolidate now and I call upon all our institutions and sectors to stand against the criminals in Malacanang and to do it now.
granting that she drop chacha for now, it only means for the moment.psycopaths change their minds quite often no matter who gets hurt.hope the rally will continue regardless.
This leprechaun resident of malacanang really makes me puke! No more lies and senseless blah blah blah please…
As most believe, the Charter of the Philippines as it stands is one among the very best and maybe need a little ammendment in some provisions as to Electoral Reforms and other issues such as Judiciacy, but that could be addressed in the statutes. It’s about time, that whatever left of the Gloria’s tenure, to forget about cha cha and spend the time reversing the damage done to the country. Or she could start by resigning her office and calling for an election that follows the rule of law for once. The Executive office has to start the reform itself and the Congress and the rest will have nowhere to go but follow. As they always say follow the Leader. What we have here is a rotten leader, resulting in a rotten heirarchy downward.
Anna, All:
Talagang matigas si Great Switik. “Never give up” pa yata ang motto! Etta Rosales may be right. Hindi pa totally give up ang mga ungas. Mukhang arte lang ni Great Switik ang pagbatikos niya kay Joe DevilAmnesia kaya tahimik si Pangalatok! Biding time ang dalawa, isang pure-blooded Pangalatok and isang half Pangalatok at half dugong aso!!!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! I HEARD THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO GATHER MORE THAN A MILLION RALLYISTS ON SUNDAY. INGAT SA MGA PLANTED PROVOCATEURS!
gaya nang sinabi ko sa kabilang thread, kumbaga sa pagkain, ipi-preserve lang nila ‘yang con ass nila, tapos kapag wala na silang maihain sa taong bayan dahil sila rin naman ang ubod na sisiba at parang (o talagang) walang mga kabusugan sa paglamon ng pondo ng gobyerno, ipipilit na naman nilang isaksak sa bibig ng mamamayan!
upang maging kapanipaniwalang tinalikuran na nila ang sayaw na ‘yan, magbitiw sila sa tungkulin, harapin ang parusang ipapataw sa kanila ng taong bayan sa mga kasalanang kanilang ginawa, magdusa ang dapat magdusa at ibalik ang lahat ng ninakaw mula sa kaban ng bayan!!
Gloria and her government will be known not only as a pathetic flip-flopping tandem, but she herself will also be internationally notorious for being an unreliable partner, a non-credible “leader” at the helm of an already image battered nation – she backtracks as often as she changes her “pants” (am using the English word here so as to be a bit more discreet):
She backtracked pathetically when she made ‘sugod’ to ally her nondescript self to George Bush and sent a band of troops to Iraq only to back out of that alliance for fear of being battered on the head had Angelo de la Cruz been killed.
Not so long ago, she promised on the death aniversary of the nation’s well-loved hero, Jose Rizal that she wouldn’t run for president for being the cause of the divisiveness in the country only to backtrack!
She also flipploped on the appointment of Admiral Mayuga to the position of FOIC, only media criticisms got her back on track.
Recently, in less than 1 week, she managed to cancel a major international summit even after delegates have made the trip to Manila not because of Durian but because of her fear that the political storm would do her in, and now, she backtracks one more time on her cha-cha.
All she wants is the gold that she can extract from staying in Malacanang: POWER. While she steals almost everyhting from her countrymen, she can’t even muster the most basic decency of showing the slightest remorse for all the kalokohan, kabastusan and kababuyan that she’s been doing on the back of the impoverished nation.
She’s greedy, she’s incompetent, she’s unreliable and she’s untrustworthy.
Oh, talk to the hand, Gloria ! How can she say that “Philippine democracy will always find the proper time and opportunity for Charter reform at a time when the people deem it ripe and needful, and in the manner they deem proper…” ???????????
This should have been her stand from Day 1, but no, she wanted to perpetuated herself !
GLORIA said it before: SHE WILL NOT RUN, BUT SHE DID.
SHE DENIED TALKING TO GARCI, THEN SHE CAME OUT WITH HER “I’M SORRY” SPEECH. NGAYON NAMAN GLORIA SAYS THAT SHE IS BACKING OUT FROM CHA-CHA.
ONLY AN INSANE PERSON WOULD BELIEVE THIS WOMAN ! GO TO HELL, GLORIA, THAT’S WERE YOU BELONG !
chabeli, hindi rin pwedeng maniwala ang baliw sa kapwa baliw. riot ‘yan!
sige nga, meron ka bang nakitang parehong baliw na nagkausap nang matino?
Ellen:
I noticed that the Great Switik was talking of some unity in her statement, but not between the two chambers of the Philippine legislature nor between her lackeys pushing for the ChaCha and the people who get nauseated by it.
Is she that stupid to even utter such nonsense? Why should Filipinos believe her? She has told so many lies for her to be believable. Filipinos should listening to her even to let what they hear enter one ear and pass through the other ear. Baka ma-contaminate pa sila!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
Statement of Renato Constantino, Jr. on GMA’s latest move on Cha-cha:
A CHEATER, LIAR and a THIEF do not belong to any society. It’s bye-bye time.
From JdV and the CONASSholes backtracking-kuno on the Cha-Cha, to the PNP threatening to arrests politicians and actors if they speak in the Luneta Rally on Sunday, to Gloria and her Glorialets also backtracking-kuno on the Cha-Cha, this can only mean one thing to me. THEY ARE SCARED OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE ! How stupid can this be ? As Forest Gump said, “STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES.”
He he he, on Ms. Ellen’s previous blog, I said that I just heard that according to NBI Deputy Director for Regional Operations, Atty. Reynaldo Esmeralda, “NBI Bares assasination plot against Nograles.” Why should this be a surprise ? This IS part of the consequences of ramroding the Cha-Cha ! Some people have less patience than others ! NOGRALES isn’t a big loss anyway. In fact, the stock market, may sky rocket.
I recently saw on TV this Nograles singing, ““Chu-chu Train, chug-chuggin down the track…”” Did he think before he did that ? He just ADDED TO THE ANGER OF THE ALREADY ENRAGED FILIPINOS !
Or all this could be part of GLORIA’s plan: TO DECLARE MARTIAL LAW.
Can anyone believe this Glueria, the biggest Ass of them all!
These Asses are praising each others’ ‘sensitivity to the people’s public opinion’. What a crap!
Grabe itong tiyanak na bruhang ito. Sanay na sanay iharap ang walanghiyang mukha sa telebisyon kung siya a matutumba na. Noong ‘hello garci’, nagpaTV rin at artistang humingi ng ‘sorry’. Ngayon naman ay iniharap na naman sa tao ang kanyang pagmumukha na NAKAKASUKA para lokohin na naman tayo! Anong akala niya, aatras ang publiko para hindi na mag-rally sa Luneta!
Pagkatapos ng pangako kay Jose Rizal na hindi siya tatakbo sa eleksyon, tapos ay mandaya sa 2004 eleksyon,at palabas na hell(o) garci, heto at muling kumulo ang aking dugo sa sakrispisyo kuno na pag-atras sa ConAss!
Wow! Anong klaseng Animal ang babaeng ito? Tatanggapin lang ito sa impierno kung papalitan niya si Lucifer, otherwise pati sa impierno ay hindi siya katanggap-tanggap!
Sige mga kapatid, kapit-bisig tayong tumungo sa Luneta at ipamukha natin sa walang konsiensyang babaeng Glueria na wala siyang lugar sa maganda nating bansa.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Let’s throw Glueria into the deepest center of hell!
Kaya pala ako binangungot at nagising ng alas singko ng umaga dahil may demonya na naman na nagsalita! Hmmppp, GRRRR! GRRRR! GRRRR!
From Narciso Ner:
Truth which is the foundation of every virtue has never been a criteria in the governance of this immoral and illigitimate presidency of Gloria Arroyo. The latest of course besides the Cha-Cha episode is the excuse given for the postponement of the Asean Summit.
It is just abhorring that this government makes pretense of its concern on typhoon Seniang
when it did little to avert a disaster on the onslaught of typhoon Reming. Gloria Arroyo knew that Bicol will be directly hit and the areas around Mayon Volcano are in danger of mudslides. Why then did she not deploy equipment from DPWH and Army Enginers? Had she sent soldiers and medical personnel to assist in evacuation and rescue operations, those buried by mud could have been extricated and given medical assistance quicker thereby saving more lives.
Gloria Arroyo was so busy plotting her moves on how to keep herself in power that everything else has to be placed on the sideline. Even her puppet congressmen from
Bicol, Luis Villafuerte and Edcel Lagman were nowhere to be seen in their constituencies
as they were engrossed in the plot together with De Venecia, Nograles, Espinosa, Pichay, Singson, Jaraula, Cagas, Defensor etc etc afraid of losing the immense power they exercise, the huge wealth they have and the big influence they wield once their master is out of office.
I pray that these people will heed the advice of Archbishop Cruz to live an upright life, to make good moral judgments and exercise public office according to what ethics say and what morals dictate.
Narciso Ner
Kapal talaga ng MUKHA ni pandak…. LINTAAAA !!!! matapos makasipsip ng dugo at malustay ang kaban ng bayan dahil sa pag mamadali nila sa CHA-CHA ngayon atras siya. GARAPAL ANG MUKHA !!!!!! Halika ka nga dito PANDAK! DAHIL CHA-CHAPATUSIN KO ANG GARAPAL NA PAG MUMUKHA MO AT NG MGA TONGRESMAN NA BAYARAN! ……. ITULOY ANG RALLY !!!!
PATALSIKIN NA! SIPAIN NA! NGAYON NA!
Oy, naunahan mo ako tikbalang, sasabihin ko sanang linta si Glue!
Anyway, i’ll repeat na lang.
Glue is a leeeeeccchhhh, insisting her ugly self on us pinoys, trying to prolong her life sucking on our blood till the last drop!
Sipain, tadyakan at sunugin ang lintang Glue! (Hmn, I actually enjoy visualizing all pinoys doing these acts).
ystakei, wala nang naniniwala kay gloria mukhang bato, kung iyan ang pinagdududahan mo.
pagkatapos ba ng sunod sunod na namang kapalpakan at kamalasang ang taong bayan ang nagdaranas, ang mga pakitang tao (nga ba ito?) at pakunwaring tulong, year end bonus sa mga kawani ng gobyerno na siang maliwanag na suhol, meron pa kayang maniniwala sa kanya?
..isang maliwanag na suhol……
What valiant? These shameless pigs have no honor. Jose De Venecia and his cohorts DELIBERATELY DECIEVED the Filipino people with fraudulent constituent assembly to change the 1987 Constitution. There’s no shining armor for cheating the whole nation and defrauding public funds. Gloria Arroyo, Jose DE Venecia and his cohorts are the same league of cheaters, con artists and crooks. Sila ay mga hampas-lupa, balasubas, mandarambong, mahaba ang buntot, sira ang tuktok, maitim ang budhi at iba pa. Kung “bloodsucker” si Glue baka kamag-anak ni Dracula.
“I thank Speaker Joe de Venecia and his valiant allies in the House for heeding the voice of national consolidation and unity, without sacrificing their high vision of political renewal.” Gloria Arroyo
As usual, PGMA wants to ‘pacify’ the high emotions we feel right now. She’s doing everything she can to diffuse the ‘bomb’ that will possibly explode come Sunday. What a pity…
Re: “Press Secretary and concurrent presidential spokesman Ignacio Bunye said there is no need to hold a prayer rally in opposition to Mrs. Arroyo’s support for Cha-cha since she and her congressmen have already backed down on this issue.
We hope it will be a prayer for unity and prayer for those who are suffering from recent calamities, he said.”
Sira ulo pala itong si bunye, nung nagdadalamhati ang Bicol, yung tongressman ng lalawigang iyon ay walang pakialam sa pagboto sa paggahasa ng saligang batas natin, nananahimik lang sila. Tapos ngayong nakakakutob sila ng mas matinding rally, saka sila mananawagan na itigil na ang rally. Bobo talaga itong bunyetang ito. Manang mana sa amo nyang abno na may nunal sa mukha na may asawang baboy at mga anak na lukaret at manyak.
Golpedegulat,
If it were up to me, I’d rather she didn’t defuse the bomb on Sunday but today by resigning for being greedy, incompetent, unreliable and trustworthy.
An honourable person would do that.
Needless to say, Gloria has lowered the bar of honourability in this country to her bansot self.
let us all be solidarity in our stand!unite now for one common issue!!oust GMA now..it the only solution.. the corrupt generals,the evil cabinets,the bums in the house led by jdv,nograles,jaraula,pichay are now in the panic mode.they are now doing everything to stop this mamoth rally by the people.after dancing in the street,let us account all the crimes they had done to this country,the corruption,cheating,the killing of innocent people like the judges,journalist,students,farmers,militants,religious and social workers.that the perpetrators must be punish and accorded by the law of the land..this people is the worst nightmare this country had..i pray that there will be no stopping for GMA`s immediate ousting!!mabuhay ang pilipinas!! mabuhay tayong mga pilipino!!
Ystakei,
That was a beautiful statement you said: “I MAY NOT BE THERE IN THE RALLY THIS SUNDAY, BUT I INTEND TO FAST (NO FOOD AND LIQUID FOR 24 HOURS) AS A SHOW OF CAMARADERIE…”
Indeed, we all can do our share, however big or small. This is your way, Ystakei. I commend you for this.
Hay, SAYANG!!! Tinuloy na lang sana ni glue at joetenga ang pag railroad nila ng garapalan. Tiyak, wala na sila bago mag x’mas. Pero hwag kayong pakasisiguro, meron pa yang taktika na tinatago nila.
Anna, “defuse the bomb on Sunday but today by resigning for being greedy, incompetent, unreliable and trustwort.” Don’t expect anything from that evil woman. I’ll bet my ass, she won’t resign her glorious crown, never.
Taranta na! Sandamukal na back-channeling sa mga Bishops, kay Mike Velarde, kay Manalo, sa mga oposisyon, pati mga kampo militar di magkaumayaw. Nginig na ang tumbong ng pato. Pag lumipad si Pandak papuntang Cebu bago mag-Linggo, alam na niya na delikado siya, iyan ang palatandaan!
Di na naman iyan makakatulog at siguradong three-storey na naman ang eyebags ng Donya. Malapit ka na, pandak! Huwag lang babaliktad si Velarde na sa ngayong mga oras na ito ay sinusuhulan, este, sinusuyo pala ng palasyo. Mabuti na lang mahigpit ang bantay ng mga obispo sa kanya.
Wala sanang bibigay para di masayang ang preparasyon. Para sa ating lahat ang labang ito. Ihanda na rin ninyo ang sarili ninyo sa martial law. Iyan na ang huling baraha, kung sakaling di pa siya bibitiw.
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas, …ang mamatay ng dahil sa iyo…
Nakita siguro niya yung motorcade sa Makati. Dati yun lang mga jeepney ng mga leftists ang nagka-caravan laban kay Pandak. Ngayon, pati mga bagong SUV, naki-motorcade at iisa ang sigaw, “Ibasura ang Chacha, Patalsikin si Gloria”. Di na nagkakaiba ang ipinaglalaban ng mga sosyal at patay-gutom, wala nang mayaman o mahirap. Mamaya sa Makati na naman ang rally, pangungunahan ng UNO. Kita-kits tayong lahat doon!
Lahat nagkakaisa nang ibasura si Gloria! Sama na kayo!
A pro-Gloria commenter belittled a commenter in Mlq3’s blog for calling on the troops to come to the rally and eventually, I suppose, to topple Gloria.
The pro-Gloria commenter also said, “Ordinary soldiers would not make a move. Pagkain lang ng pamilya nila, problema pa nila. They are at the mercy of their superiors.”
But actually what the pro-Gloria commenter said (above) was true and said so.
I also said to her:
This problem is mainly due to the fact that the generals are stealing from the military coffers, and as if that’s not enough, they’ve also dilapidated the hard earned savings and pension funds of the troops, and as if that isn’t still enough, they continue maltreating them by corrupting them morally.
The military leadership in the Philippines has always been corrupt and so why should it change under Gloria’s regime? Matter of fact, military leadership has worsened and will just continue to grow worse. Almost all of the top military leaders, from major service commanders down to battalion commanding general have been so morally corrupted that it would take another generation or two to rid the institution of their influence.
Because of that, I don’t believe these generals will be of any use at all in the rally or in any political event even if, for the sake of argument, they decided to give in to clamors by certain quarters to topple Gloria. They are just as greedy, as dishonourable, as untrustworthy as their so-called commander in chief.
Rabid dogs of the same kennel barking together kind of.
There is a tremendous panic mood in Malacanang. Malacanang allies are now thinking of graceful and immediate exit. The only stubborn boys I could think of are Ermita, Raul Gonzalez, Bunye and Claudio. Notice Mike Defensor’s silence. In the past, a day passed without seeing and hearing this little Mike talk. Today, he’s as meek as a lamb. He has his personal ambition one of which is to run as Senator. He knows that his victory would be jeopardized staying with the administration ticket. Anyway, my sourse told me that at least he has the assurance of Manalo’s INC. He has the INC votes. The rest…well…
That is not true!!! The INC will not vote Mike Defensor, kahit siguro ipag-utos ni Ka Erdie sa mga miyembro nila, hindi na sila susunod. Tama na ang isang malaking pagkakamali, na ibonoto nila si bansot. I have a reliable source, this time gloria and her allies are preparing for an exit. Hindi lang nagpapanic ang sinungaling, mandraya at magnanakaw……mabaliw-baliw na sa nerbiyos. Mga kababayan, si gloria ay nagbabalot na, kaya huwag hayaang makaalis. Kailangan niyang pagbayaran ang kanyang mga kabuktutan.
Hindi niya kayang mag-declare ng martial law dahil ayaw ni Tito Sam, at hindi rin sang-ayon ang 2 generals na akala ni gloria ay susuporta sa kanya. Kaya tahimik si Mike Defensor ay dahil nanginginig na ang tumbong niya. Si FVR ay nagsindi na ng kanyang tabako dahil ninenerbiyos din. Ha!!! Buti nga sa inyo!! Mga ganid. Itong si Ramos napakalaki din ng kasalanan sa bayan. Kaya ang ating charges sa kuryente ay napakalaki dahil sa kanyang mga kapalaluan.!!
Aanihin na nila ang kanilang itinanim!!! Huwag hayaang makalabas ng malacanang ang bansot na may asawang baboy na ubod ng gahaman sa salapi at babae!!! Patayin ang mga makasalanan!!!
Kailangan ni Mike Defensor ang INC. Kailangan niya ng pera para sa kampanya at manalo. Ang INC kasi I Need Cash.
Glueria is out and out liar. Here’s what she really meant —
I commend the decision of the House leadership as an act of statesmanship to unify not only the two chambers of the legislature but the whole nation around the issue of Charter change.
Translation: Putang inang house speaker na yan. Di pala niya kayang hilahin ang senate chamber para sa charter change.
I thank Speaker Joe de Venecia and his valiant allies in the House for heeding the voice of national consolidation and unity, without sacrificing their high vision of political renewal.
Translation: Gago talaga si Joe de Venecia at mga binayaran niya. Hindi yata binigay lahat ang sinabi kong pabuya para sa mga sipsip na tongressman.
It is time to gather together all the energies of our people for the continuing work ahead—maintaining our economic strength, ensuring the social payback of economic reforms, and helping distressed communities back to their feet.
Translation: May araw din kayo, mga mangmang na taumbayan. Iipitan ko kayo, gugutumin ko kayo hangga’t di kayo pumapayag sa cha-cha.
Philippine democracy will always find the proper time and opportunity for Charter reform at a time when the people deem it ripe and needful, and in the manner they deem proper. The nation must consolidate now and I call upon all our institutions and sectors to stand as one for the country’s future.
Translation: Hindi magtatagal at luluhod din kayo sa akin. Ako ang reyna engkantada – huwag ninyong kalimutan yan
Great translation Alitaptap!
That’s exactly how this bansot will have said those things in Pinoy. Heheh!

Pilit tinutuwid ang ginawa ng Diyos na baluktot?
The alleged assassination attempt against shameless pigs Dudut Jaworski and Prospero Nograles may be another ploy/pattern to declare martial law or its clone. Under martial rule, Commander-In-Thief Gloria Arroyo can void the May 2007 midterm elections for greedy reason. Avoiding a total shutout in the Senate and the opposition congressmen gain means her death sentence. Arroyo and her cohorts will be trash-out in a fair and clean election. Beware of Malacanang Palace evil plan. Oust Gloria Arroyo!
Chabeli said: “Or all this could be part of GLORIA’s plan: TO DECLARE MARTIAL LAW.”
Kung natatandaan ninyo noon bago mag-Martial Law, may ambush daw kuno kay Enrile noon…
Martial law?
Another political maneuver? Bakit takot ba kayo? Mapipigilan ba ng Martial law ang pagbagsak ni ate glo?
Martial Law, sige na, ngayon na!!
Sa Linggo pa, apoy. Heheh. Tignan ninyo mamaya ang rally sa Makati. Maraming bagong mukha ang dadalo.
Matindi ang panawagan ng mga alipores ni JDV at siya mismo na wag nang ituloy ang rally sa Linggo. Ang laking takot ng mga pesteng ito! Kaya naman nagsipaguwian na ang mga Tongressmen sa kani-kaniyang distrito sa takot na makuyog sa Manila.
Pero walang nakikinig sa kanilang panawagan. Gaya ng pagte-tengang kawali nila sa mga hinaing ng taumbayan noong eleksiyon at dalawang impeachment, pati na rin dito sa chacha mismo. Mapait na katotohanang kinakarma na sila at tila di na maipapagpaliban ang galit ng mga tao. Sila mismo ang natakot sa halimaw na kanilang gawa.
Wag nang lubayan ito hanggang sa matapos. Let’s all carry this fight to hell.
Tounge,
Wala pa akong nakikitang pictures ng rallies sa Makati na sinasabi mo! Pero OK lang basta paki- report naman ang mga susunod pa gaya ng ginagawa mo. Alam mo naman na ako ay walang pinoy channel sa bundok! thanks na sandamungkal!
Sige, may sarili akong altar dito sa bahay, pagdadasal ko kayong lahat na nakiki-rally. Ingat, kung makita mo si Glueria ay tiradurin mo, ha?
as what JB Baylon wrote in his Malaya’s column today, the fight is not over yet. Filipinos should be more vigilant and be wary of the dirty tactics of Gloria.
I hope the rally goes ahead, despite the scare tactics of assperon and raul gonzales. let’s all hope that millions attend the rally to show this gloria and her evil asses that filipinos have had enough of their shenanigans.
Ellen, thank you for the regular update of what’s going on there. May there’ll be more like you and Ninez’ kind.
Down with Pedrosas, Agustins, et al….mga sipsip. Asan na sila ngayon? Bistado na ang kaletsehan nila!!!
by the way, for several days now, i haven’t heard or read any reaction/comment from the pathetic mike defensor. i bet his lips must have gone licking somewhere else than his penguin mistress named gloria????
just wondering. sayang, kasi the more he talks, the more apparent the trouble is in malacanang. sila mismo, hindi nagkakasundo kung paano ang diskarte sa gagawing panloloko sa mga mamamayan.
Huwag kang mag-alala, Myrna. Mukhang yung pinakatagu-tagong secrets ng Donya at mga tuta niya sa Malakanyang, si Mike D ang nagbubulgar ngayon. In a matter of days, oposisyon na yan. In the meantime, let’s leave him there to feed us the vivid details of the ongoings in the pigsty by the murky river.
Chi, mamaya pang hapon ang rally sa Makati. Makikita ninyo ang grupo ko sa frontline pero ako personally, low-profile lang. Mahirap matunton. Madali naman ma-spot ang mga agents ng intel. Ang kinukunan nila ng pictures at video, yung mga mukha ng rallyists at ina-archive sa database nila. Pati mga sasakyan, inililista. Kaya kami, nagtataxi na lang pag malapit na sa site. Yung mga matatapang na activists, walang pakialam kung kinukunan sila, nagpo-pose pa, hihihi.
Pero nung motorcade kahapon, wala nang tagu-tago, yung mga may-ari ng mga kotse, inilalabas pa ang mga mukha para makita ng tao na hindi sila mga tipong bayaran lang. Mga tisoy at tisay, halos puro modelo ang mga sasakyan. Sigurado, nasa LTO mamaya ang mga taga-intel at uusisain kung kani-kanino nakarehistro ang mga kotseng ginamit kahapon.
Ang alam ko, full attendance ang UNO mamaya, kasama ang Erap/FPJ boys, progressive groups, businessmen at marami pa. Patikim pa lang ito. Magmamartsa mula sa Post Office, Paseo de Roxas-Buendia, Makati Avenue-Buendia, Ayala-EDSA at magtatagpo sa Ninoy Aquino monument. Higpit ng takutan ng Yuchengco wing ng Makati Business Club sa mga empleyado nila na wag magtatapon ng confetti. Ewan ko lang sa Romulo/Luz wing. Sana umulan ng confetti para matauhan na ang mga sipsip na cronies ng Reyna Engkantada at ni Fart Gentleman.
Abangan!
Mga Katipunan: Ituloy ang laban at walang atrasan, bagyo at ulan patalsikin si Reyna Engkantada. Kapag puno ang salop ay dapat kalusin. People Power Luneta!
OK Tongue, thanks.
Minsan ay nagigiltihan ako dahil pisikal kayong nagpapakahirap diyan para labanan ang mga walanghiyang mga mandurugas, samantalang hindi pa ako makauwi. Pero iyon namang aking mga kapatids and bayaws, anaks at mga kamag-anak ay pupunta sa Luneta rally. Matatapang ang mga ‘yon, lalo na iyong mga kabataan. Ang iba ay manggagaling sa Bataan, diocese ni Mons. Villegas. A first cousin priest will be there too.
naamoy ko ang martial law..pero naamoy ko rin ang mutiny.
mas marami ang ayaw tumupad sa baluktot na utos. malaking gulo ito.
sige na , martial law na..ngayon na!!
I was fuming mad watching Angara on TV Patrol giving his crazy advices to the rallyists and opposition joining the march on Sunday.
Sunday should be the opportunity to express the sentiments of majority of the Filipinos. An American friend has asked who are the majority in the Philippines, and I said, “the poor, the destitutes and the uneducated.” He then asked if they are properly represented, and I said, “What do you think?” He raised an eyebrow.
Now, there was also the attempt by Nograles to deviate the attention to his allegation that there is an attempt on his life. Bakit news pa ba iyan?
I bet you that a lot of people would want to see him dead dahil marami siyang sinasagasaan. Stupid fellow to try to get Filipino sympathy now by claiming that he is now a victim instead of being the predator. Talagang walang magawang matino ang taong ito. Voters in his province should be wiser not to vote for this guy, and make sure that he does not win especially with the help of vote-riggers like Garcillano, who should be brought to justice and make to pay for his illegal activities.
This should read: Filipinos should NOT BE listening to her BUT TO let what they hear enter one ear and pass through the other ear. Baka ma-contaminate pa sila IF THEY LISTEN TO EVEN ONE WORD OF HERS!
TULOY ANG RALLY SA LINGGO! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
My new title for the squatter at the palace by the murky river is “Great Switik”!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! LET’S MAKE SURE SHE GETS WHAT SHE SHOULD HAVE TOGETHER WITH THE FATSO OF A HUSBAND WHO BRAGGED THAT HE WOULD STOP LAPPING ON THOSE LECHONS SERVED ON THE TABLE PAID WITH TAXPAYERS’ MONEY NO DOUBT AT THE PALACE BY THE MURKY RIVER WHILE MAJORITY OF FILIPINOS DIG THE GARBAGE BINS FOR THEIR SURVIVAL!
I SHOULD HAVE WRITTEN THAT THE GREAT SWITIK AND HER RASPUTIN OF A FATSO HUSBAND BE SENT TO JAIL FOR LIFE!!! AND PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT NO DESCENDANT OF DADONG MACAPAGAL WILL GET ELECTED EVEN BY HOOK OR BY CROOK EVER AGAIN.
ALIS DIYAN! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!

I love your translation. It helped lower my blood pressure, and circulation of the steam in my system.
I enjoyed the chat on the phone with you pal. Next will be a phone chat with Chi when I get the time zone for NC. I would not like to bother her in the middle of her beauty sleep.
Yesterday, I had dinner with my sister, brod-in-law and cousins at Gerry’s Grill. Namaga ang bibig ko because I made the mistake of eating shrimp that I have gotten allergic, too. I took my medicine for allergy, naantok ako. Slept the whole day today as a matter of fact.

I know for a fact the the INC members in Japan were not able to vote for anybody during the 2004 election because they were not told to register as their duty to country. So, no registration, no election. This fact I was told by a friend of mine who is a deaconess of that church.
I don’t know what kind of gimmick they are having right now, but religion or no religion, the rally on Sunday is on.
Basta lang ingat sila sa provocateur! Will see how gentlemanly the gentlemen of the AFP would act as they claim! God willing, a lot of them will jump ship and join the rally versus the Great Switik.
This rally FYI is no initiative of the US. It is PURELY a PHILIPPINE INITIATIVE, more by people with faith in God, country, and people and not the legion that quoted the devil in the Bible!!!
Mabuhay! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
yung pagbawi ni Bansot sa suporta sa Cha cha, palabas lang yun para hindi matuloy ang rally sa linggo.
we cant trust this treacherous bansot. Marami nang promise na hindi natupad kaya hindi na pwedeng mapagkatiwalaan.
Yuko,
We’re 3 hrs ahead of SF. Sige lang, rest ka muna. Ang layo ng nilipad mo :).
The Soldier
It is the soldier, not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet
who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the soldier, who salutes the flag
who serves under the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
who allows the protester to burn the flag.
“Philippine democracy will always find the proper time and opportunity for Charter reform at a time when the people deem it ripe and needful, and in the manner they deem proper. The nation must consolidate now and I call upon all our institutions and sectors to stand as one for the country’s future – Gloria Arroyo.”
everytime gloria arroyo talks in front of the people, it is unity she always stresses. it is their welfare she says is her administration’s priority. but, what is she and her glued to power allies doing at our back? nothing, but plan how to spin everything for their forever stay in power.
apoy, cool ka lang! delikado ka sa BFP.

Shhhhhhhh, Ms. ellen, (psst!!!) sorry for being impolite, but I just wanna share what I heard, according to sources, the great YODA will disappear on 19 December 2006 to go to the US or wherever, i think he is leaving to lick his wound, the great yoda is very much dissapointed because of the growing number of anti-chacha (wheter its CON-ASS of con-con). Accordingly he is also dismayed the way the leprecahun left him in the open and to absorbed all the criticism and everything that has been said about him.
The great YODA is being overpowered by the LEPRECHAUN in RED, hehehehehehehehe…. natalo si yoda. tsk, tsk, tsk….
Its funny that malacanang is now telling us that there is no need for a rally??? STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES!!!!!!! after what they done in the LOWER house of representaTHIEVES now they’re telling us no need to rally??? crazy these people are, ermitanyo why not just go to the mountain and count trees and birds and have your beard go longer, hehehehehe…..
ITULOY ANG RALLY, THROW THE LEPRECHAUN AND THER MINIOS OUT!!!! NOW NA!!!!
prans
15 December 2006
I MEAN THROW THE LEPRECCHAUN AND HER MINIONS OUT!!!!
Buti nga kay YODA!! Glue dropped him like a hot potato. All the people know what kind of person Glue is, that she cannot be trusted, and yet he didn’t know or pretended not to know. Inuto niya ang mga tao, pero nauto naman siya ni Glue,ano ang labas niya eh di, gunggong (dumbo). It should serve as a lesson for anyone who would like to deal with this greedy tiyanak. DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT trust or believe what she is saying or be sorry.
Tongue, I saw the car rally on TV. Maganda nga.
One of the rally organizers told me that the caravan had an impromptu detour to Fort Bonifacio upon the request of some marine officers, who, of course, have to remain anonymous.
I have to skip some of the rallies being organized to conserve my energy.
Tongue T:
Thanks for the report on the rallies you’re holding over there. I am contacting the Bayan Muna people in SFO as I wish to join their rallies too while I’m here. Hopefully, my group in Tokyo will do something as some kind of participation in this big event that may prove to be a real beginning for the Philippines and the Filipinos.
As I have stated in previous post, I am fasting on Sunday at the same time as the commencement of the march/rally there on Sunday. Got a schedule from B&W.
HUWAG MATAKOT SA MGA KURAKOT! SUMAMA SA RALLY WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE A GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEE OR A CIVILIAN. KARAPATAN NINYO IYAN. PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! HILAHIN SA BUHOK ANG GREAT SWITIK! IPAKATAY ANG MGA BABOY AT MGA SALAULANG KASAMA NIYA!
The Filipino people must sustain this action.
Not ningas cogon.
Gloria Arroyo issued early Christmas. Why? Is she expecting to be ousted before Christmas Day? Probably this will be her last X’mas message as president.
Ellen,
I’m sorry to have to delve into the issue of one of your colleagues in Malaya, Ducky Paredes, particularly after he writes:
“Is this defeat the victory of those who would sacrifice all just to get a chance to be president where with all that power in their hands they can do practically as they please while under a Unicameral Parliamentary System we would have a chance to develop into a kinder, more cohesive and gentler Philippines?”
In fairness, he’s asking a question and perhaps needs enlightenment but how can anyone be so sure that with a unicameral parliamentary system, the Philippines would have a chance to develop into a “kinder, more cohesive and gentler Philippines?”
While he may be right to think of ways and means to solve one of the biggest political impasses that’s faced the Philippines these last few years, I believe he is being obtused by not looking at the greater picture: the issue is not quite the system change but the politicians involved in changing the system, Gloria and her corrupt political dogs.
I believe Ducky Paredes should be reminded that there is a great probability that the system will not provide for a kinder, gentler, etc. Philippines if the system changed is effected by this bunch of politicians and using the manner they use to effect that system change, i.e., debate-less fashion, ramming the issue in the throats of the electorate a few months before election time, ultimatum, etc., makes the whole project even more questionable.
I am beginning to be suspicious of what motivates Ducky Paredes to write as he does today, not because I am anti-Gloria but I had hoped for a more sober, more balanced, well-thought of approach coming from one who in the past was one.
Anna de brux,
A journalist earns respect when he is fair, objective and speaks the truth without fear or favor. Respect translates into credibility after listeners acknowledge that what he is saying is really fair, objective and true. Credibility will then metamorphose into INTEGRITY or the perception of what other people would say about the broadcaster. This integrity is very hard to earn. A journalist must strive to achieve this to be effective and useful to the community and the country..Unfortunately, many have been respected, hundreds have been credible enough, but very few have earned the integrity worthy of trust and adulation of the people…
Agree golpedegulat.
All need to be said about bogus Gloria has already been said and more. There is nothing I can say that will surprise anyone. Bogus Gloria is still remain a liar, cheat and thief which will be her legacy, not mentioning the 801 activists and journalists that has been killed ever since she stole Malacanang in broad daylight, right in front of owr own very eyes, and we let her do it. So, the people is much to blame.
They didn’t call bogus Gloria the Master of Flip-Flop for nothing. A shameless woman dwarf without moral values and will resort anything only to remain in power. I’m sure, bogus Gloria can see the hand writing on the wall that the people don’t want anything to do in changing the form of govt. The only possible thing to say available to bogus Gloria is to lie at the proper time,”…when the people deem it right.” If anyone deserve to be hit by a lightning, absolutely bogus Gloria is numero uno candidata. Be that as it may, still the ball is in people’s court! Only and only the people of the Philippines can rectify the wrongs has been happening in the Philippines. Do not blame bogus Gloria, but the people responsible for letting her out of the cage.
It takes two to Tango. The Filipinos may be blamed, too, for allowing a crook to enslave them, but the blame should be more on the crook who ambitions to be there on top but cannot do a good job as she is concentrated only on making herself rich and cutie-cutie even as a queen with a unicameral chamber made up of cronies, friends and relatives!!! Tongue na talaga! I won’t sorry for this expletive. It is what the Great Switik and her lackeys deserve.
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! OCAYVALLE, DASAL PA PARA MAWALA NA ANG ALIKABOK NA ITO!
While everyone is busy with preparations for the rally, I received this message from PREDA that bloggers in the Philippines may find interesting to watch:
As the Philippines observe the celebration of Christmas through Simbang Gabi,
we would like to invite you to watch ABS CBN’s XXX Program at 8PM (Philippine
Time) on December 16, 2006.
This is the rescue operation made by PREDA Team to the trafficked workers in
Nasugbu, Batangas. It is a grim reality all too familiar in the Philippines –
the vile exploitation and enslavement of the poor by immensely rich land
owners and sugar barons. Like thousands of other impoverished farm
workers from all over the Philippines, the villagers of Cabangan, Zambales
had been promised good wages and a Christmas bonus. They were transported
in a cattle truck to the far off sugar cane fields of Batangas to
cut, carry and load the cane for the short trip to the smoke belching
sugar mill.
Please watch and send this email to your friends.

The rally must go on. The Great Switik is at it again. Wala daw ChaCha ngayon. Next year na lang daw! ‘Tado talaga. She should be pulled by the hair out of the palace by the murky river where she squats together with her Fatso of a husband. Apparently, the Great Switik cannot be trusted. She has to go!
Tribune reports:
Cha-cha to be revived right after ’07 polls — Palace
12/16/2006
As President Arroyo remains confident that her political allies will dominate the 2007 polls and subsequently gain control of both Houses of Congress, which could most likely result in the blocking of all moves by minority lawmakers to impeach her, a Palace aide yesterday revealed the Chief Executive’s plan to revive the Charter change (Cha-cha) agenda after next year’s electoral exercise.
During a radio interview, presidential chief of staff Michael Defensor said the Arroyo administration is seriously studying the possibility of reviving Cha-cha right after next year’s polls as it believes that by then, the public’s heart would have changed in favor of the administration’s plan.
Well-placed sources in Malacañang earlier told the Tribune that one of the reasons Mrs. Arroyo has been pushing Cha-cha is for her to escape the yearly impeachment complaints being filed against her at the House of Representatives.
The source said once the 1987 Constitution is amended, Mrs. Arroyo would no longer be held liable for alleged offenses committed in the past.
Defensor stressed Mrs. Arroyo has not closed the door on Cha-cha despite her earlier move to back down from the issue in view of the mounting street rallies against the move.
He admitted that it is hard to talk about Cha-cha at this time as there are different sectors and institutions that have expressed opposition to the plan.
Defensor also said the administration is praying that the opposition would give the best Christmas gift to Mrs. Arroyo—“temporary silence” on the Cha-cha issue.
Even as the Chief Executive backed down from the move to amend the Charter, anti-Cha-cha groups held a two-hour protest late yesterday afternoon along Ayala Avenue in Makati City not only to warn Mrs. Arroyo against amending the Charter but to show that the “silent majority has spoken.”
Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay led the protesters at the rally near the Ninoy Aquino Monument in Paseo de Roxas, which he said was a prelude to a more massive rally on Sunday to be spearheaded CBCP.
“This is not just a warning,” former Sen. Ernesto Maceda said, adding “even the silent majority has spoken.”
“The way this (series of protests) is moving… this is the beginning of the end,” he said. Maceda noted they had long asked members of the middle class to join mass actions but had consistently declined.
“But they are finally here…talking in the streets…the (Cha-cha) has not merely outraged people but has scandalized the silent majority,” he pointed out.
The protest was without incident with the protesters dispersing peacefully at a little past 7 p.m.
Meanwhile, the influential business group Makati Business Club (MBC) has also expressed opposition to Cha-cha, saying it will support the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines’ (CBCP) stand on the issue.
MBC chairman Ramon Del Rosario said the CBCP’s rally to be held on Sunday (Dec. 17) already tells the government that it cannot change the rules midway in its term. He added the protest rallies against Cha-cha being held by various sectors including the CBCP show an expression of disgust over the Cha-cha idea.
Del Rosario, however, stressed the MBC is not totally against amending the Constitution but “it has to be done the right way and at the right time.”
Earlier, the MBC appealed to the Arroyo administation to focus on other important issues that need to be addressed before the 2007 elections instead of pushing Cha-cha.
“We would like to join the appeal for the administration of President Arroyo to put Cha-Cha aside for now and affirm the certainty of the 2007 elections as soon as possible,” the MBC said.
With the recent decision by the Supreme Court (SC) affirming its rejection of the proposed people’s initiative (PI) to effect Cha-cha, the business community said it is now seeing brighter prospects for the country’s economy.
MBC pointed out while “technically, the decision dwelt only on the legality of the PI, a reading of its full text conveys to us the clear impression that the SC is cautioning us against the grave threat the current attempt to change the Constitution poses to Philippine democracy.”
Aside from members of the opposition and known Arroyo critics, her second in command, Vice President Noli de Castro is alleged to be among those who heaved a sigh of relief with the administration’s decision to drop Cha-cha moves at this time.
Senate President Manuel Villar Jr. said De Castro who is known to be against Cha-cha at this time, was most likely, elated by Mrs. Arroyo’s decision.
“He’s probably delighted upon hearing the news because the convening of a Con-Ass (Constituent Assembly) had completely fizzled out. We all know that this would not do him good. Most likely, he’s pleased with what’s happening,” Villar said in an interview.
De Castro, should the government shift to parliamentary system is bound to be among those to be affected as the post of the Vice President would be “wiped out” since the leader of the country would be the prime minister with the president serving as a figure head.
Needless to say, De Castro did not intend for his term to be cut-short when he ran for the post in 2004 when he still had three remaining years in the Senate, having been elected as a member of the chamber only in May 2001.
Villar insinuated De Castro is further eyeing political plans in the future, saying the Vice President “knows how to get the pulse of the public and knows how to ‘read’ it.”
“He (De Castro) immediately sensed that the people are against it (Cha-cha),” he said.
In a related development, Villar yesterday proposed that the government might as well consider the idea of holding a referendum simultaneously with the 2007 polls to get the people’s view on such a very delicate issue as Cha-cha.
Villar welcomed Mrs. Arroyo’s decision to drop her Cha-cha agenda, in the face of overwhelming public protests.
He said it was good that the President woke up to reality that the people are against Cha-cha at this time.
“It’s a good thing that the President came abreast with the reality that the people do not want any tinkering with the Constitution at this time. With this, we can now move forward and expect things to return to normal,” he said.
Villar added with only a week of session left for Congress before it adjourns for Christmas break, “time has run out for Cha-cha or any similar proposal.”
“It’s Christmas time and there is no more time to amend the Constitution before the May 2007 elections,” he said, adding the Senate committee on constitutional amendments headed by Sen. Richard Gordon will continue with its hearings on Cha-cha. Sherwin C. Olaes, Ayen Infante and Angie M. Rosales

Provocateurs on way
to Manila: Gonzales
Military to put up checkpoints
BY JOCELYN MONTEMAYOR
NATIONAL security adviser Norberto Gonzales yesterday said “communist provocateurs” will try to cause chaos, using firearms and explosives, in Sunday’s prayer rally at the Quirino Grandstand.
“I received credible intelligence information that provocateurs will attempt to sow civil disorder and violent confrontations during the prayer rally,” Gonzales said in a statement.
He said he has talked to AFP chief Gen. Hermogenes Esperon on the setting up of checkpoints by the military’s Southern Luzon and Northern Luzon Command in coordination with the police.

There goes the idiot Visayan again. Remember how he crowed like a cock at dawn during the funeral of FPJ when he cried that the funeral march would be disrupted by the commies, and that the funeral march was going to be diverted to Malacanang.
Kundi ba tarantado ang mamang ito e alam nang libing iyon sasabihin pang communist march daw iyon. E di napahiya siya! Di nakita ng marami na talagang palpak ang gobyerno nila under the leadership of a Great Switik.
Tama na, sobra na! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! AND PLEASE TANGGALIN NA ITONG GUNGGONZALES NA ITO. WHY IS HE BEING ALLOWED TO MAN THE DOJ WHEN I UNDERSTAND HE IS NOT YET CONFIRMED! TONGUENA ANG GALING PANG MAGMAGALING BOBO NAMAN!
Parang nakakaloko talaga itong si Great Switik. Here’s an update from Malaya:
Con-Con still alive at House
BY WENDELL VIGILIA
THE House will continue deliberations on proposals to convene a Constitutional Convention unless President Arroyo tells them to stop.
Majority leader Prospero Nograles said he thinks the President was not quoted properly when she said Thursday that time is not ripe for charter change.
“She is still for charter change,” he said.
Arroyo said her administration is leaving it to the people to decide on when and in what manner political reforms should be undertaken.
Rep. Constantino Jaraula (Lakas, Cagayan de Oro), chair of the committee on constitutional amendments, said the scheduled hearings on Con-Con would be less divisive than the discussions on the Constituent Assembly (Con-Ass).
The House on Thursday voted to archive Resolution 197 which called on all members of Congress to propose amendments to or revision of the 1987 Constitution without the participation of the Senate.
Jaraula said he respects the President’s opinion because “she has a larger view of the political panorama.”
He said he will continue his advocacy for change “so at the proper time, one cannot claim that it’s not deliberated or debated.”
Jaraula also conceded that the resolution for Con-Con is unlikely to be approved in the 13th Congress.
He said the committee meeting scheduled for Tuesday to tackle the resolution could be cancelled due to lack a quorum because congressmen would be busy attending Christmas parties.
Rep. Roilo Golez (Ind., Parañaque) said it is time for Jaraula’s committee to “cease and desist” from holding a hearing on Con-Con measures because it is the same committee and membership “that maneuvered the ‘final push’ for Con-Ass.”
“It’s the same committee where no-el (no election) was scratched last January but resurrected in the final push last week with Resolution 1285 that it illegally attempted to report out instead of Resolution 1230,” he said.
Golez said the committee “must first be organized before it is allowed to hear, if at all, the Con-Con measure.”
Resolution 1285, authored by Rep. Prospero Pichay (Lakas, Surigao del Sur), proposes that elections be postponed until November.
Golez said Jaraula’s panel “is the same committee that abdicated its role to Rep. Luis Villafuerte (Kampi, Camarines Sur) who, from out of the blue, reported out the now infamous Resolution 1450 (calling for the convening of Constituent Assembly).
He warned that since the amended Section 105 of the rules “is still alive and not rectified, anything dastardly can still happen with the same bunch manning the committee.”
Section 105 was amended by the majority to allow plenary discussions on Cha-cha resolutions without undergoing the normal process of enactment of bills.
RECALL CON-ASS RESO
Rep. Rolex Suplico (LDP, Iloilo) said Resolution 197 must be “buried properly” since it is still “dangerously alive, contrary to what the Palace and its House allies stated.”
“A ‘live’ resolution cannot be sent to the archives. It has to be killed first, by recalling it, before it can be sent to the archives, the House cemetery, for burial. We have to recall Resolution 197 in order to kill it,” he said.
As “added security,” Suplico said the House should restore Section 105 of the House rules before archiving Resolution 197.
“If House rules are not followed, a ‘live’ Resolution 197 can be resurrected at anytime. Again, the Palace and its cohorts are engaged in double-talk,” he said.
ENTOMBED PROPOSAL
Senate minority leader Aquilino Pimentel said he would oppose any revival of the “entombed” Con-Ass proposal as long as President Arroyo remains in power.
He said the decision of the House majority to archive the Con-Ass resolution after Arroyo conceded that charter change is a lost cause should enable lawmakers to concentrate on legislation for the welfare of the nation.
He said the people have become cynical about moves to amend the charter because they have seen how Arroyo, Speaker Jose de Venecia and the administration congressmen took advantage of their positions to pursue charter change to prolong their stay in power and ensure their political survival.
He said the administration’s efforts to install a unicameral system through a People’s Initiative or Constituent Assembly crumbled because the people were outraged over the way the President and her legislative allies employed naked power to trample upon the constitutional processes and to defy the sovereign will just to get what they wanted.
“The people saw through the self-serving motives of power-wielders and their cohorts in pushing for charter change,” he said.
Senate President Manuel Villar proposed the holding of a referendum simultaneous with the May 2007 to get the people’s view on amending the Constitution.
He said questions on whether voters are in favor of changing the Constitution and on what mode they prefer should be included in the ballot. – With JP Lopez

In short, utak kamote talaga itong si PhD in Economics kuno. Bugok ang utak! Puede ba tuloy-tuluyin na para mawala na ang salot na ito! PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA! IKULONG PATI NA ANG FATSONG ASAWA NA NAGMALAKI PANG PANAY LECHON ANG KINAKAIN NILA! TAXPAYERS’ MONEY?
The people can’t get caught up with bogus Gloria’s agendas, she’s going to do what is best only for bogus Gloria, matter not the people. Therefore, the people should keep that in mind come Sunday at the rally. Why be limited in Luneta, how about Malacanang where the real problem is located. We shall see!
It’s very obvious, bogus Gloria will do anything to remain in Malacanang and she’s not going to stop with or without Con-Ass or Con-Con. The only way to stop bogus Gloria is if the people made sure of it. 500,000 people more or less in Luneta is not going to do it, yet One Million Warm Bodies in front of Malacanang gates will guarantee the ousting of bogus Gloria. Furthermore CBCP prayers rally is just what it is a prayer rally. The country has been praying every single day and still bogus Gloria stinking the house of the people. Prayer rally will not amount to anything but another unsuccesful rally like others. Prayers is not the answer in getting rid of illegitimate Gloria. Another bad joke!
Nagkatusuhan si Glueria at JdV, hahah, heheh!

The tragedy of Joe de V
By GUALBERTO B. LUMAUIG
Malaya, Dec.16/06
The most pathetic, sorriest looking figure that emerged from the ruins of the ill-fated Con-Ass was Speaker Joe de Venecia. None, to be sure, deserves less of the lashes he has been getting. From media, from the militant groups, from the religious sector, from every radio commentator and his uncle, from every Juan, Pedro and Jose who feels his day is not complete unless he sends anti-Joe de V text messages to all radio talks shows. Joe de V’s fault? For being the face of that blasted, despicable Con-Ass.
Joe de V is a consummate politician whose contribution to the shaping of post-Edsa political society cannot be ignored. He is full of ideas about how the country can move forward and achieve optimum progress. Which he articulates, to most people’s amusement, in soaring, grandiose, hyperbolic language. To Joe de V no event no matter how ordinary is just an event. It is a historic event. No initiative or more no matter how common place is just a move. It is a dramatic move.
Joe de V, I would say, is the cleverest politician in town. He has to be. Cobbling a bunch of politicians of divergent interests, persuasion and ambitions into a rainbow coalition and keeping them on leash is a feat only a man of extra-ordinary smarts and persuasive skill can pull.
Yes, Joe de V is a total package all right. Aggressive, imaginative with a gift of gab, and meticulously discerning, no way the craftiest of snake oil salesman can pull a fast one on him, or sell him a bill of goods. Which is why I haven’t stopped wondering how in tarnation did a politician with briefer experience than him in the rough and tumble game of politics like Gloria Macapagal Arroyo manage to get him to lead the Cha-Cha charge via Con-Ass that would litter the halls of congress with dead principles and bring the country dangerously close to civil strikes?
A friend who is an old hand in political intrigues painted to me an interesting scenario. GMA and Joe de V had a secret meeting in an undisclosed place. The dialogue went like this:
GMA: “The Cha-Cha train is not moving fast enough. In fact it is not moving all. What’s the problem?”
JDV: “The Senate would not cooperate. I have tried all kinds of tricks, promised the senators the moon, the stars and the head of Joc-Joc Bolante but still they would not budget. All this talk about abolishing the Senate has put the heebie-jeebies on every one of them and now they are talking that Cha-Cha would pass only over their dead bodies.”
GMA: “And so you have given up? There goes your dream of becoming Prime Minister huh?”
JDV: “Well, that’s the way the cookie crumbles and the ball bounces and the pork barrel rolls. The country simply has no choice but endure the dramatic impact of missing a historic opportunity of seeing me as Prime Minister.”
GMA: “That’s the trouble with you, Joe, you don’t have the fighting instinct of a woman. Look at me, I have been threatened with People Power, coup, impeachment andyan pa rin ako, naka remache sa trono! Why? Because I fight. And I use my brain.”
JDV: “So what do you advise me to do? Follow your lead and use the power of the purse to get everyone to support the Cha-Cha including the senators?”
GMA: “No, no, no,,,,,forget the senators. Magsasayang ka lang ng oras at pera sa mga iyan. Here’s what you do, call for a Con-Ass minus the participation of the Senate. You have the numbers don’t you?”
JDV: “Y.y..yeah, sort of”.
GMA: “Well pass a House resolution calling for a Con-Ass…”
JDV: “The Opposition would raise hell…”
GMA: “Stop interrupting me…Pass a resolution calling for a Con-Ass, if the Opposition and whoever try to block the resolution, ram it through anyway, what do you have the numbers for it you can’t have it your way on this issue?”
JDV: “Wel.l.l…”
GMA: “What are you hemming and hawing about? Do you or don’t you want to become Prime Minister?”
JDV: “Ok we’ll do it.”
GMA: “That’s the spirit. Now, a word of caution, be sure, be absolutely sure that my name is not linked in any manner, shape or form with this Con-Ass initiative, got it?”
JDV: “Why not? Our stand would be greatly reinforced if it carries your explicit imprimatur.”
GMA: “Basta, keep my name out of it. Officially and publicly, I have nothing to do with Con-Ass plan sans the participation of the senate, you hear?”
JDV: “So when we unwrap the Con-Ass initiative and are met with public applause I’ll get the credit, is that it?”
GMA: “Of course!”
JDV: “And when all hell breaks loose because the public is scandalized by the manner the Cha-Cha is being pursued, I’ll get all the flak?”
GMA: “Do you or don’t you want to become Prime Minister?”
The scenario painted to me by my friend does give me new insights on the Cha-Cha-Con-Ass affair. The clear conclusion is that GMA has put one over Joe de V. so that while Joe de V hangs up there twisting in the wind and absorbing all the flak generated by the aborted Con-Ass, the brain of the despicable move its serenely in the Palace dispensing motherhood statements about the need for the nation to unite, to forego changing the constitution until better and more propitious time.
And that’s the tragedy of Joe de V. Smart and astute as he is, he failed to see through the Machiavellian moves of GMA. Perhaps he should in the future get inputs from advisers other than those he now maintains.
If House Speaker Jose De Venecia is really very smart politician, then, why he allowed to be exploited by Gloria Arroyo and Jose Pidal crime family? JDV knows that a senate-less constituent assembly is a lost cause.
Anna, I do not read Ducky Paredes column anymore, but i used to before. It became evident to me that he has changed tune since about the middle of this year. He had withdrawn his punches to you know who, so i lost interest in what he says now. Same with Jim Paredes, his Apo brother, who after migrating to Australia saying it was for good, suddenly denied saying it and came back to the PHil for some job offered by people close to the Pidals. In short, both of them turnedcoats.
JDV couldn’t say no to his real amo Fidel Ramos, the shadow behind chacha? Glueria had them both!
Diego K. Guerrero,
You ask, “If House Speaker Jose De Venecia is really very smart politician, then, why he allowed to be exploited by Gloria Arroyo and Jose Pidal crime family? JDV knows that a senate-less constituent assembly is a lost cause.”
In my humble opinion, ARROGANCE and AMBITION took the better of him.
I agree. Nothing more.
Maganda siguro kung “Joe De Venecia Backs Out of Gloria Camp”
If JDV leaves GMA camp, where will he go? No group would take him in. He’s a good salesman but a lousy politician and leader.
Allow me to share with you this interesting piece that I quoted from a paper:
GMA and Joe de V had a secret meeting in an undisclosed place. The dialogue went like this:
GMA: “The Cha-Cha train is not moving fast enough. In fact it is not moving all. What’s the problem?”
JDV: “The Senate would not cooperate. I have tried all kinds of tricks, promised the senators the moon, the stars and the head of Joc-Joc Bolante but still they would not budget. All this talk about abolishing the Senate has put the heebie-jeebies on every one of them and now they are talking that Cha-Cha would pass only over their dead bodies.”
GMA: “And so you have given up? There goes your dream of becoming Prime Minister huh?”
JDV: “Well, that’s the way the cookie crumbles and the ball bounces and the pork barrel rolls. The country simply has no choice but endure the dramatic impact of missing a historic opportunity of seeing me as Prime Minister.”
GMA: “That’s the trouble with you, Joe, you don’t have the fighting instinct of a woman. Look at me, I have been threatened with People Power, coup, impeachment andyan pa rin ako, naka remache sa trono! Why? Because I fight. And I use my brain.”
JDV: “So what do you advise me to do? Follow your lead and use the power of the purse to get everyone to support the Cha-Cha including the senators?”
GMA: “No, no, no,,,,,forget the senators. Magsasayang ka lang ng oras at pera sa mga iyan. Here’s what you do, call for a Con-Ass minus the participation of the Senate. You have the numbers don’t you?”
JDV: “Y.y..yeah, sort of”.
GMA: “Well pass a House resolution calling for a Con-Ass…”
JDV: “The Opposition would raise hell…”
GMA: “Stop interrupting me…Pass a resolution calling for a Con-Ass, if the Opposition and whoever try to block the resolution, ram it through anyway, what do you have the numbers for it you can’t have it your way on this issue?”
JDV: “Wel.l.l…”
GMA: “What are you hemming and hawing about? Do you or don’t you want to become Prime Minister?”
JDV: “Ok we’ll do it.”
GMA: “That’s the spirit. Now, a word of caution, be sure, be absolutely sure that my name is not linked in any manner, shape or form with this Con-Ass initiative, got it?”
JDV: “Why not? Our stand would be greatly reinforced if it carries your explicit imprimatur.”
GMA: “Basta, keep my name out of it. Officially and publicly, I have nothing to do with Con-Ass plan sans the participation of the senate, you hear?”
JDV: “So when we unwrap the Con-Ass initiative and are met with public applause I’ll get the credit, is that it?”
GMA: “Of course!”
JDV: “And when all hell breaks loose because the public is scandalized by the manner the Cha-Cha is being pursued, I’ll get all the flak?”
GMA: “Do you or don’t you want to become Prime Minister?”
I’m sorry folks…I re-posted the item Chi already posted. Anyway, it’s kinda funny isn’t it?
