Malacañang is billing the May senatorial elections as an Erap versus Arroyo fight.
Mike Defensor, presidential chief of staff who is expected to lead the administration’s senatorial ticket said, “It’s too early to say what our chances are but we are confident that once the public realizes that this is all about Arroyo and Estrada, it would understand the issues and not be carried away by the anti-GMA rhetoric.”
That’s what Malacañang wants to bill it to lessen the hostility towards Arroyo. The truth is, the May election is People of the Philippines versus Gloria Arroyo.
The issue is Gloria Arroyo and her cheating, lying and stealing and her utter disregard of the rule of law.Anybody who supports her is an advocate of cheating, lying and stealing and lawlessness. That is the issue. That should be the issue.
Malacañang thinks that if they use the Erap fear factor, Gloria would come out smelling like a rose.
Wrong. They are underestimating the public’s antipathy towards her. They should look at the surveys. Pulse Asia’s July 2006 survey showed 21 million (44 percent) Filipinos disapprove of Arroyo’s performance despite Malacañang’s all out propaganda.
Not only are the people not impressed with her performance, they distrust her. Twenty two and a half million Filipinos (47 per cent) think Gloria Arroyo cannot be trusted.
Pulse Asia said, “No president before her has experienced as extended a period of low public esteem; whereas public disenchantment in terms of low approval and trust ratings generally improve for Philippine presidents within two to three quarters, President Arroyo’s deflated approval and trust ratings have proven less tractable and outright improvements in public assessments of her performance and trustworthiness have been slow in coming.”
It’s worth noting that these surveys were conducted before the bastardized People’s Initiative and Con-Ass, and lately her role in springing convicted American serviceman Daniel Smith out of the Makati jail to please US President Bush, in blatant violation of Philippine laws.
In the SWS survey, her approval rating has remained below zero. SWS’ November 2006 survey showed 47 percent of the Filipinos disapproving of her performance as against 34 percent for a minus 13 rating. That is of course a little better than the minus 33 per cent in May 2005.
Compare that to Estrada’s approval rating even at the time when he was ousted by an elitist “people power” in early 2001 which was plus nine. For all his bungling of the presidency, Estrada never experienced a below-zero rating.
A privately commissioned survey showed 55 percent public interest in news about Estrada. That must be sending Arroyo off the wall because she is known in broadcast circles as a low rater. That’s why Malacañang had to stop her radio programs. She herself didn’t find it worth her while because survey showed nobody was listening.
A political party’s private survey showed that Estrada’s endorsement is worth 13 percent of total votes cast. That’s valuable support, which explains the steady flow of senatoriable wannabes to Tanay.
(A source in that particular survey showed that an Iglesia ni Cristo endorsement is worth 3 percent and Cory Aquino, 1 percent.)
Arroyo’s endorsement, in terms of public image is negative. But considering that she has control of government’s resources and cheating machinery, there’s a high possibility that she will again thwart the will of the people and make her candidates win.
Gloria Arroyo may not be a candidate in the May election but her political survival is very much at stake. She is the issue.
Malacañang will have to make sure that the opposition does not get 79 or more representatives elected or else the impeachment complaint against her this year will go straight to the Senate.
In the Senate, Arroyo needs six new senators to add to her three allies (Lito Lapid, Bong Revilla and Miriam Santiago) to make sure that in the impeachment trial, she has the nine votes to prevent her ouster. Of those who are running for re-election, it’s only Edgardo Angara, whom she could probably count on to support her.. The others – Manuel Villar, Fancis Pangilinan, Ralph Recto, Joker Arroyo, Loi Estrada – are expected to run under the opposition ticket with “Oust Arroyo” as the battlecry.
Who is Arroyo offering the public to compose the Senate? In the tentative list, aside from Defensor are Prospero Pichay, Prospero Nograles, Juan Miguel Zubiri, Robert Ace Barbers, Rolando Andaya, Ace Durano, Angelo Reyes, Margarito Teves, Edu Manzano.
Pichay, Nograles, Zubiri, and Barbers all helped in the railroading of “House Only” Constituent Assembly that called for the abolition of the Senate. Now, they are running for the Senate.
As R.C. Constantino said, “The gall!”
People from Malacanang and Arroyo’s political strategists call the May election a battle between President Erap and Arroyo. If this is so, then according to Rep. Alan Cayetano why not include the two in a snap election as part of the poll? Para makita natin kung sino talaga ang mahal ng taong bayan. Once for all, we would know who the real President is. Kung si Erap pa din ba o talagang nanalo si Arroyo noon. That would give Arroyo the chance to get a fresh mandate. At kung matalo niya si Erap, baka maging tahimik na ang bansa. But will Arroyo agree? That’s a one million dollar question. Sa Malacanang naman, lumalala ang hidwaan nina Mike Defensor at Ermita. Ewan ko lang po kung gimmick lang ito pero parang tutoo nga. It’s a fight between two ambitious evils.
Defensor and Ermita’s fight is real. But you are right, that’s waht we call “quarrel among thieves.”
Ermita resents Defensor whose access to Arroyo as presidential chief of staff undermines his job as “little president”.
Check out my previous article “Hot Mama, Hot Papa.”
Kadiri- to- death talaga itong si Little Mike. After the brouhahas of the Bruha, the May elections is all about the Great Pinoys vs. the Greatest liar, cheat and thief Glueria. The Hello Garci, Pidals and Tohs, Jocjoc fertilizer scam, failed cha-chas, springing of Smith, juetengs, etc. etc. etc. What’s so hard to decipher here, Little Mike? Amoy Imburnal ka!
Defensor vs. Ermita, imburnal talaga ang patutunguhan nila. Buti nga at sila-sila ay nag-aaway na kung sino ang mas malapit sa puso ng Bruha Glueria.
Bakit ba malakas si Mike Bansot kay Great Switik kahit na puro kabalbalan ang sinasabi na nabibisto tuloy sila? Gusto pa yatang sumingit ni Ermita! Pwe, wala namang ka-taste-taste ang mga ganid na ito!
Ewan ko nga, Yuko. Baka meron personal services na hindi natin alam, heheh.
The problem is how to neutralize Abalos’ Comelec cheating machinery. It’s all intact after the 2004 fraudulent elections. Comelec Chairman Ben jamin Abalos is a Malacanang puppet and part of the discredited charter change thru People’s Initiative. The quick promulgation of Comelec Resolution No. 7796 defined guidelines for PI is a calibrated dirty tactics if not a clandestine plan to cancel May 2007 polls. Chairman Abalos has an extra 9 millions voters or so under his sleeve to prevent 12-0 shut-out in the senatorial race. Remember manual counting of votes is a big advantage of Gloria and her amoy imburnal candidates. Dagdag-Bawas (vote shaving and adding scheme) may derail an opposition victory. Watch out this partisan election chief, Ay naku mali election thief pala!
You are correct, Diego. Gloria will never allow the opposition to win. It’s a matter of survival for her. I’m afraid the opposition is not as wily and efficient as ronnie puno and gabby claudio.
Kabayang Ystakei asked “Bakit malakas si Mike Bansot…”. The formula is simple, para patuloy na malakas ka kay Arroyo dapat alam mo ang mga baho ni Arroyo. Arroyo’s trusted men in Malacanang, government agencies, PNP and AFP all have one thing in common: They all know Arroyo’s secrets. They all know how cheated. They all know how she stole people’s money and still keep on stealing. To shut their mouths, Arroyo makes it a point to reward them with lucrative positions equipped with power and money making machinery. Kaya nga kung napapansin mo, takot si Arroyo sa mga tauhan niya kahit hindi niya pinahahalata. Kung minsan kunwari magtataray iyan pero pagkatapos kakausapin ang sinermonan niya ng lihim by using her famous phrase “I’m sorry”. Tapos sabay bigay ng candy.
If I may repeat my prevous comments: (January 7th, 2007 at 12:40 pm)
Weren’t some of these Senatoriables the ones who wanted to abolish the Senate ? This is not about Gloria verus Erap, as Malacañan, through Mike Defensor, like to say. This is about GLORIA VERSUS THE PEOPLE OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES.
Running under Gloria’s ticket would spell political death. If ANYONE of them win, it is because they cheated..
Dapat maging matalino at maingat narin ang mga kabataan tulad ko [early 20’s palang naman], minsan na kaming naging biktima ng maruming pulitika sa atin at wag na sanang muling maulit pa! Kailangan yun salang-sala or naimbestigahan kung tunay na nagmamahal sa bayan at hindi sa bulsa. Ang mga luma or amoy-lupa na pulitiko ay nagpapalit-palit lang ng kampo… nakakadismaya talaga!
Naalala ko pa nun sinabi ni Miriam na tatalon siya ng eroplano ng walang parachute kung makukulong si Erap, pero ngayon siya naman ang numero uno kakampi ng mga amoy-imburnal!
Wish ko lang wag na sana sumali ang mga amoy-lupa sa darating na eleksyon. Magpahinga na lang sila at ipabuya na lang sa mga magagaling at karapat-dapat na mga batang pulitiko!
Lalayas din naman ang mga amoy-imburnal sa Malakanyang sa ayaw at gusto nila/natin mapatalsik o hindi! Ang importante makapaghalal tayo ng mga magagaling, tapat sa serbisyo, yung bagong sibol na pulitiko na papalit sa lahat ng mga amoy-lupang pulitiko na siyang nagpahirap sa ating bayan!
ALIS DIYAN MAY KILITI AKO DIYAN!!! 🙂
Diwata, gusto yang sinasabi mo. Hindi ko lang talaga ma-take si Mike Defensor na bata! Pero ang obserbasyon dito ni Ka Diego at Ellen ay dapat isipin at gawaan ng paraan nating lahat ng hindi tayo mabulisyasong muli.
Filipinos love to immitate the Americans. For that, I would like to believe that they can also immitate what majority of Americans did in last year’s election.
Miracles do happen, you know. Tignan natin! I won’t easily give up on the Opposition if I were you, especially when we all know that what Claudio, et al are doing are mere paid lip service.
Filipinos should have more faith in themselves even when things look as hopeless as when Ellen says, “I’m afraid the opposition is not as wily and efficient as ronnie puno and gabby claudio.”
I don’t believe it has anything to do really with their wiliness and efficiency that I suspect are more due to how much are generously given them!
I just wanna share this part of Mr. Laurel’s recent column related to this thread. Happy reading!
“The first UNO general assembly was a smashing and enthusiastic success. National and local political leaders of all shades, from traditional to activist and “cause-oriented,” from anti-Gloria to simply opposition in general, all flocked to the event. Despite the five hundred pesos each participant had to fork out for the cost of the venue and comestibles at the classy Club Filipino, provincial and town leaders came; this was unlike any previous political assembly where everything is sponsored by the political bigwigs. This sets the tone for a truly people power based politics.
It was a genuinely open and democratic meeting, popular sentiment on controversial issues were freely raised and discussed. The most important of these controversial points is the inclusion of Mr. Noted, i.e. Sen. Kiko Pangilinan, in the proposed (but not yet final) slate for the UNO. The FPJ campaign volunteers group NCCV has refuses to let go of Pangilinan’s shameful dereliction of duty in the canvassing of the 2004 elections in the Senate by refusing to scrutinize fraudulent canvass sheets and election returns, paving the way for GMA’s illegal proclamation.
NCCV leaders Rez Cortez and Don Remo explained that their protest is not non-negotiable. They would yield to the political wisdom of UNO leaders, particularly President Estrada, but only if and after Pangilinan faces the public, explains and expresses public remorse on his infamous Mr. Noted act. It is an important issue, for what would UNO be if it simply sweeps such vital issues of principle under the rug? President Estrada and Mayor Jojo Binay’s intention to present a broadened united opposition is crucial, but it must be based on adherence to principles, not mere convenience.
The same dilemma arises with the proposed entry of “impeachment fasttrack” Senate President Manny Villar and Mr. RVAT Ralph Recto. In Villar’s case, however, the way had been paved by frequent visits to Tanay interpreted by most as an act of contrition, but he is still seen as an untrustworthy ally by many opposition stalwarts — maybe if he signs an anti-GMA covenant in public, the suspicions that he will pose as GMA’s “third force” can finally be put to rest. In Recto’s case, it is said his “business” through the Batangas port chains him to GMA come hell or high water.”
Gloria is very wary of the Filipino people – she knows that the defeat of the Republican party is a kind of referendum against George Bush’s presidency and realizes that the Philippine mid-term elections might just see her being thrashed in the Philippines.
For this reason, she will do everything, commit murder, turn the society upside down, field her AFP attack dogs on every single walking opponent in the Philippines, use the Navy to ferry ballot boxes which will already have been filled with ballots containing the votes of both the living and the dead to ensure her victory.
She will use the 10billion peso modernization fund to extract commissions which in turn will be used to finance her ‘stop ’em (opposition) wrecking my presidency kind of…’
Name every dirty trick in the book and she’ll use it so that she will be spared the humiliating defeat her pal in the White House suffered.
This moral dwarf is going to be the most sinister politician the Philippines will ever have known come May.
Prepare for battle in May my compatriots; hang her and her cabal of evil from the highest lamppost with your vote…
This is war!
Ellen,
I had posted a similar comment on my blog. The administration is using this GMA vs. Erap spin to dissuade the moralists from voting for the opposition. But the people are well aware that the elections will be focused on issue and not Erap. These issues are yet to be addressed by Glueria. Now they are scaring the businessmen with another spin. Media has to be on their toes to thwart any palace attempt at fooling the people. Exposing the administration’s pans are now more important than ever.
Pero Ms. de brux, it’s difficult to compare the defeat of the Republicans in the US to the anticipated defeat of administration candidates this coming election. Doon sa US walang dayaan pero sa atin meroon. And what is apparent with US politicians and candidates, puro sports sila. Kapag talo, talo. Many immediately concede. Dito sa atin, tapos na ang election tuloy pa rin ang patayan. Since Arroyo has in her disposal the government resources, kaya niyang gawin ang gusto niya. I would like to go back to the two party system. Noon, mas madaling bantayan ang mga boto at presinto. Poll watchers and inspectors were allowed. Noon may kanya-kanyang inspectors. Dalawa lang naman ang partido, Nacionalista at Liberal kaya madaling ma-monitor. Ngayon isang tambak na partido at may mga party-list groups pa.
Mandirigma,
In an ideal world, perhaps you are right but we have to do with what we’ve got today and one way to limit the cheating spree is for every Filipino to be vigilant – guard the ballot boxes.
mandirigma, tama yang analysis mo kabayan. pero gaya ng nasabi mo, mahirap talaga i compare ang US sa Pinas. Tingin ko, hindi gagana ang two-party system sa atin, pero hindi naman sana ganun karami na labo-labo na ang labas. Pasasaan ba at diyan ang ang tungo sa dakong huli, 2 parties, pag nagkaroon ng grand coalition o kung umanib ang maka kaliwa (hindi ibig sabihin commies o socialist) sa isang panig.
Tama din si Anna, kelngan talaga bantayan natin ang ating boto. Iniisip ko pa nga kung pano gawin yan dito sa absentee votes, kasi isa yan sa mga dinaya ni Gloria noong 2004. Di ba lumabas na mas maraming boto kaysa balota?
Sangayon ako sa sinabi mo Diwata. Magpahinga na ang mga amoy lupa, huwag naman na silang tumakbo sa election. Abah naman, nuong bata-bata pa sila, wala silang nagawa, ngayon pa! Ang oposition naman, maraming recycled lang ang kanilang kandidato. Kung baga sa pagkain, wala halos bagong luto, marami ang re-heat, kaya wala ka nang ganang kainin.
Tama rin na labanang Arroyo vs Pinoys itong May election. Pero, paano kung manalo sila uli dahil sa daya? Remember, ang madaya, always madaya, at si Arroyo iyon, at isa pa, she can always get away with it. Sana ang May election ay hindi isa na namang exercise in futility sa mga pinoys.
Ganda ng labanan ang “MASA at si GLORIA DILA HUWAD” huwag lang magkadayaan at mag martial law. Saan kaya magandang ikulong si “GLORIA DILA HUWAD”.
Nagkakaisa na ang Oposisyon sinasala na ang dapat kasali sa magic 12, 12-0 daw pabor sa oposisyon. Sana magkatotoo nga para malaman na ang katotohanan at malaman na din ang utang ng Pilipinas kung gaano na ba kalaki.
Bayan ko kailan ka kaya makakaahon sa kahirapan!
PATALSIKIN NA! SIPAIN NA! NGAYON NA! HWAG MATAKOT SA TAONG KUMUKURAKOT SA KABAN NG BAYAN!
Defensor is whistling in the dark. He knows the real score. They will lose, if they do not cheat. So they are preparing to do so. And the first part of this is try to project themselves as winners. But the groundswell of the emotions against Gloria is so great that one can feel it on the ground that is now trembling and may erupt in earthquake of hate.
Hawaiianguy,
Re OAV, I would like to suggest that voters demand the Comelec to allow civilian observers when they accept the votes, and have them watch the boxes 24 hours so that none of the staff of the embassy or consulate getting extra money to insert filled up ballots from the Comelec can succeed in doing that, especially in places where voting by mail is allowed.
We had a suspicion that it was what happened over here in Japan with an official admitting that they have received ballots filled up from the Comelec alleged to be diverted ballots that the Japanese Post mistakenly sent to Manila that any idiot would know to be an unfounded allegation because there was no way the Japanese Post wouldmake such mistake considering the fact that rates of domestic and international mails are not the same!
In short, manloloko din lang hindi pa gawing kapani-paniwala! Dapat lang silang tawagin assh*les!
Multi Parties system could be allowed, but there will be some rules of party accredition. We have dozens of political parties here, but only about half a dozen are accredited and given the benefits of government funding and tax deductions on campaign funds. A party has to meet stringent election rules to get accredition and therby enjoy privileges and funding same as major parties in order to get a crack of representation (winning seats).
Election cheatings and frauds are considered criminal offenses and always prosecuted as criminal offenses, the reason why they rarely happen. And the Media are so vigilant and very responsible, that seldom their allegations and reports of anomalies are ignored. Actually the Media here had exposed more wrongdoings and irregularities in the Government than the Auditors and police altogether. That is how important the role of the Media, a very responsible and independent Media to the functions of Good Governance.
Schumey:
2000 and 2004 elections in the US were not as clean as propagandized. The only difference is that cheating there is less conspicuous, and seemingly rampant only in Florida made easy by the confusion caused by still to be tested machines.
Mandaya man sila doon, hindi halata! In the Philippines, it has become institutionalized, and Filipinos think it is normal, even acceptible especially when there is the usual pakipkip!!! 😛
Pathetic? You bet! I still have to hear of people there getting arrested and prosecuted for vote-buying and electioneering. Over here, it a serious criminal offense!
Ito ang isa pang balita na lalong ikakainis niyo kay Arroyo.
Kulang na nga ng gasolina iyong isang eroplanong lalapag pero hindi pinayagan kasi paalis ang eroplano ni Arroyo para dumalo sa isang kasal. This another news will make us all sick:
Arroyo’s jet prevents plane running low on fuel from landing
Gulf Air official wants explanation
By Nikko Dizon
Inquirer
MANILA–Which should be given priority on the runway? A Lear jet taking off with President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo on board or an incoming long haul Airbus 340 ferrying 231 passengers that is running low on fuel?
This was the question posed by an official of the Airline Operators Council (AOC) after a Gulf Air flight from Bahrain was reportedly denied landing at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) because Arroyo was using the runway for her flight to Davao City on Wednesday to stand as a wedding sponsor.
The AOC is also complaining about long queues at the departure immigration counters and a defective baggage facility that have delayed outbound flights.
“Even if the President’s plane was already taxiing but the pilot (of the other aircraft) declared he was low on fuel, the latter should have been allowed to land,” Leoncio Nakpil, AOC chairman and Gulf Air security chief in Manila, told reporters.
Putting 230+ lives at risk so this vermin could take off?
What a vermin!
Gloria, the vermin, is a nasty piece of work!
Yuko, you’re right!
wala talagang pakundangan sa buhay ng ibang tao itong bruhang si arroyo masunod lang ang kanyang kapritso. to think na ang sakay ng gulf air ay mga ofw whom she paid lip service to claiming they are the bagong bayani of the nation. well, what can we expect from this liar & cheat, kahit nga si rizal na national hero binastos niya.
ystakei, pahiram ng slogan mo ha, kumukulo kasi ang dugo ko sa bruhang ito.
PATALSIKIN NA! NOW NA!
I ditto that Isabel… PATALSIKIN NA! NOW NA from the aeroplane while in the air!
This should read, “Mandaya man sila doon, hindi halata! In the Philippines, it has become institutionalized, and Filipinos think it is normal, even ACCEPTABLE especially when there is the usual pakipkip!!!”
Who says that the Great Switik cannot be defeated? It is just a matter of WILL AND DETERMINATION to remove this crook, by hook or by crook!
Why should Filipinos allow themselves to be dissuaded from this kind o resolve by paid lipservers?! Kagaguhan na iyan!
It’s plain and simple abuse. Parang katulad noong anak na babae, who demanded for the removal of the Immigration Officer for not serving her first! Bakit sila na ba ang may-ari ng Philippines?
Remember the song “May Bukas Pa” by Rico J. Puno? The lyrics are very inspiring. Sa kabila ng mga suliranin natin at mga pang-aabuso ng pamahalaang Arroyo ay naniniwala akong May Bukas Pa para sa atin. Don’t lose hope mga kababayan. Hold on to your faith. By wink of an eye, things would be different. Mabuhay tayong lahat!
i was just posting about the misery children in pinas face in the other thread when this headline from le figaro popped on my screen this instant:
Publié le 07 janvier 2007 à 22h09
Incendie aux Philippines: 5 enfants tués
Cinq enfants ont péri dans un incendie qui s’est déclaré dans un bidonville près de Manille. Les parents des jeunes victimes les auraient enfermées dans le logement familial avant de se rendre sur un marché. D’après les pompiers, les flammes ont détruit 97 baraques et laissé plus de 500 personnes sans abri.
5 children perished in a fire in a slum area near manila. the parents of the young victims were locked in their lodging and left for the market. according to firemen, the fire destroyed 97 slum dwellings and left 500 people homeless.
ooops, the children were locked in their lodging by their parents who then left for the market…
Pagmamadali ko, 2 times akong nagkamali ng entrada. Una sa si Gloria na ang Isyu tapos sa babaha ng pera, dito pala dapat.
Aba’y gising pa pala ang mga tao rito. Anna, Ystakei, Mandirigma, Isabel, gising pa kayo?
May bago na naman pala pagpipistahan ang million bloggers ni Ate Ellen. Ilan tayo rito, may 50 na ba?
PEOPLE (of the PHILIPPINES) vs. GMA!!!
Noong una’y may sarili akong listahan ng gusto kong iboto sa pagka-senador, pero sa usaping People (of the Philippines) vs. GMA, ito ang diskarte ko 12 senatoriables ng UNO, Diskarte ko lang ito base sa mga usap-usapan at sa criteria na mababasa sa column ni Herman Tiu, Daily Tribune:
1. Joker Arroyo
2. Benigno Aquino, Jr.
3. Allan Peter Cayetano
4. Francis Escudero
5. Tito Guingona
6. Ping Lacson
7. Loren Legarda
8. Kiko Pangilinan
9. Koko Pimentel
10. Ralph Recto
11. Tito Sotto
12. Manny Villar
Hanggang January 15 ang completion ng line-up kaya marami pang mangyayari.
Ito naman ay mga haka-haka sa likod ng pilian.
Hindi dadalhin si Angara dahil sa feud nila ni Ping Lacson. But if Guingona will opt not to run, he may endorse Angara after settling his (Angara) squabble with Lacson. Hindi na kakandidato ang sinuman kay Loi at JV Ejercito, nandoon na si Jinggoy. Pero sa husay sa batas ni Koko Pimentel, isisingit siya kahit nandoon pa ang matandang Pimentel. It was a toss-up between Tessie Oreta but the later gave way to the young Aquino. Gringo Honasan declared his unavailability.
A big surprise is Erap himself running for senator, if there will be no legal impediment.
The incarcerated officer, Antonio Trillanes IV may also enter the picture if he can file his candidacy and
somebody will gave way for him. But he may also run for a congressional seat.
At kung maganda ang iyong diskarte, kung sa madyong, pwedeng maka bisaklat. Tingnan mo naman Mang Cocoy and line-up ng kabila. Mga pinili ni GMA: 1. Mike Defensor 2. Prospero Pichay 3. Prospero Nograles 4. Ace Durano 5. Robert Ace Barbers 6. Juan Miguel Zubiri 7. Raul Gonzales 8. Eduarto Ermita 9. Francisco Duque 10. Angelo Reyes 11. Rolando Andaya 12. Margarito Teves.
Fearless forecast: PEOPLE vs. GMA: 12-0
joeseg,
yup, gising ako kasi hapon dito sa lugar ko. malaking X sa akin ang lahat ng kandidato ni gloria. as per the list, X din sa akin si aquino at kiko (noted yan ha). check sa akin si cayetano, escudero, guingona, legarda at koko. yung iba, kung sila na nga (it’s to early to tell, di ba, pero iba na yung handa), check na rin sa akin just to blow this arroyo regime away.
talk of parental neglect, anna. kawawang mga bata. pero dapat imbistigahan yan. sa pinas kasi, kapag yung mayayaman na may-ari ng lupa, kapag hindi mapaalis ang mga skwater, either demolisyon ang gagawin or ito nga susunugin, tapos sasabihin ang dahilan kandila o faulty electrical wiring. naku, mahaba-haba ding usapan kung bakit malala ang problema ng squatting sa pilipinas. paano naman malulutas ito ni gloria eh siya mismo iskuwater lang din sa malakanyang.
Isabel, di nga ba may sarili akong listahan? Ang mga nakatala dyan ay siyang hula ko lang na bubuo ng line-up ng UNO which represents the People.
Tayo naman, kahit sino ang iboto natin, no problem. Sabi ko nga noon, parang gusto ko si Mike Defensor dahil sa kakulitan at dapat may kokontra rin sa majority. Sa totoo lang, hindi naman tayo nakasiguro na puro OK ang mga yan kapag nakaupo. Pero sa ngayon, ang mahalaga ay manalo ang PEOPLE!
5 children dead? i do hope they investigate. the life of a poor child is as sacred as the life of a rich child.
which gives me an idea isabel: heheheh! faulty wiring? easy to provoke electrical short circuit in the bathroom of the squatter in malacanang! heh!
speaking of which, i’m off! gotta hit the sack, gotta wake up early to prepare breakfast and ‘baon’ for the kiddies tomorrow … gut nacht mein freunds!
heheheh! funny, anna. but who knows, baka meron isa dyan sa mga nakapaligid sa bruha, biglang makonsensiya, at utasin na lang itong walang hiyang skwater ng malakanyang.
good night, it was nice exchanging views with you.
RE: The FPJ campaign volunteers group NCCV has refuses to let go of Pangilinan’s shameful dereliction of duty in the canvassing of the 2004 elections. NCCV leaders Rez Cortez and Don Remo explained that their protest is not non-negotiable.
The position of FPJ supporters is expected under the circumstances in fraudulent joint congressional vote canvassing. Their anger is understandable. There’s no silver bullet on Mr. Noted issue. UNO President Mayor Binay and jailed President Erap must mediate NCCV leaders to reconcile unity differences for the good of our country. Reconciliation means give and take or two-way traffic. Are balimbings can be accepted in the 12 senatorial slates? I’m not saying that Mr. Noted Pangilinan shall be forgiven for his arrogant act and the questionable proclamation of Mrs. Arroyo. Somebody has to sacrifice to achieve unity in the opposition. Mr. Noted and others may run for congressional seat where they are strong or shoo-in. The goal of gaining 80 seats in the lower house and 12-0 in the senate is non-negotiable. The opposition candidates must win a landslide victory to neutralize Abalos’ Dagdag-Bawas scheme. The battle is between the Filipino people and tyrant Gloria Arroyo. Fearless prediction: Gloria Arroyo is guilty as charge without senate trial and conviction. Matagal na tayong niloloko!
HiAnna, talagang gising ka pa?
Nasabi mo yang ikinandado ang mga bata na nasunog. Alam mo, personal na nangyari sa akin yang ikandado sa loob noong bago akong salta ng Maynila. Mahirap lang kasi kami kaya kailangang magtrabaho ako para makatulong. Nanirahan ako sa aking uncle na may negosyo ng ready made clothes for children. May pwesto sa palengke at pagdating ng gabi, dapat may bantay para hindi manakaw ang paninda. Ako ang nagkusang tumulog doon. Pag-alis nila, naka-locked sa labas. Noong malaman ng parents ko na ganun ang ginagawa ko, nagalit ang mother ko sa kapatid nya. Eh kung magkasunog nga naman! More than one year akong tumutulog na nakandado. Kapag nakakabasa ang ako nang ganyang incident, naaala-ala ko, kung sinasama, pagkagising ko, patay na ako.
Natauhan ang uncle at mula noon, hindi na ako pinatulog doon. Ako naman ang nagkusa dahil gusto kong makisama at mabuhay.
Kahirapan ang puno ng pangyayari sa pagkasunog ng mga bata. Mahirap sila at pagtitinda sa palengke ng mag-asawa ang ikinabubuhay. Sa tantya ko, wala pang pwesto yan, yong mga hinahabol ng pulis. Matagal nang iniiwan ang mga bata sa ganung oras at pag-uwi nila, may dala na silang pagkain na kinita sa pagtitinda. Pwedeng may kasalanan sila for negligence, pero in their situation, ano pa ang magagawa? Mas gugustuhin pa nilang magpakulong.
Yan ang mukha ng ating bansa. Kahirapan. Pero ang maganda, hindi nawawalan ng pagasa ang ating kababayan. Nandoon pa rin ang pagiging masayahin at pagsisikap. Kung mahusay nga lamang ang patakbo ng gobyerno, baka hindi ganito kahirap ang kalagayan.
I am not too keen on some of the senatorial candidates of UNO. But one thing the opposition should be decisive on is not to include potential Trojan horses.
Their objective should not simply have 12 of their candidates win. It is to make sure that these 12 on their list will support moves to impeach Gloria. All their candidates should profess publicly that they would.
The opposition can’t afford to have potential balimbings and I am quite sure Gloria already has plans to insert some of her Trojan horses in the opposition’s list.
dkg,
madugong usapan yang isyu kay noted pangilinan. opinyon ko lang, kung magiging liability lang din siya sa unity ng oposisyon, buti pa ngang humabol na lang siya ng kongresman o kaya barangay captain.
pahabol lang, huwag kalimutan ang boto para sa partylist. plus factor din kapag marami ang makapasok sa congress na kakampi sa pagpapatalsik kay arroyo. kaya nga ba’t inunubos ang lahi nitong mga progresibo at anti-gloria party list (at gusto pa ngang i-ban at lagyan ng tag na terrorist), kasi nga naman nakakadagdag din ang bilang nila sa oposisyon.
So the Gloria camp has decided to make the election issue a choice between her and Erap. Although I am definitely no Erap fan, this is good. She’s sure to be clobbered.
Palagay ko may talo si Mr. Noted Pangilinan kahit punong barangay sa Quezon city. Mahirapan si Kiko sa re-eleksion dahil hati ang partido Liberal. Kahit magdamag mangharana si Sharon Cuneta talo pa rin siya.
Phil Cruz,
In my previous post, only 6 of the UNO probable candidates are in my list of who will get my vote. I also described there why I will not for for the rest. But of course, it still subject to some changes as we go on. The most important is a decisive victory.
It’s nice to tell you that what you are thinking is similar to what Herman Tiu wrote in his column at the Daily Tribune. UNO will come up with a political platform to serve as criteria in selecting their candidates for the House and Senate. The number one proposed platform is:
To expose, oppose and work toward the removal of the illegitimate regime of Gloria Arroyo (for congressional candidates a pledge to impeach, but senatorial candidates will sit as judges and cannot make any public statement on the matter);
==
DKG,
Somewhere in this blog, I wrote that Kiko Pangilinan is not my list although he’s a probable winner if included in the UNO line-up.
Tigas naman ng ulo ninyo. Senator Pimentel is not running because he just got reelected in 2004. Hanggang 2010 pa siya unless of course the fickle-minded as a weather Great Switik and her cohorts manage to push through with her ChaCha and abolish the Senate as they plan. Tricky ang ungas. She cannot be trusted. Parang nakakaloko! Iba ang sinasabi at iba ang ginagawa!
Sabi nga ni Alitaptap, Filipinos cannot be complacent. They have to be always on the look out! Switik ang kalaban!
Please huwag ninyo nang ipadagdag ang isang traydor at wala ring sinabi. Hindi komo sikat iyong asawa ay OK na! Time to teach Filipinos to have more sense.
Ystakei,
And also Ralph Recto. Like my comment for Kiko, he’s not in my list but a probable winner if included in the UNO’s selection. Of course, they want to sistance themselves from GMA this time. As they are aware, it’s like a kiss death being included in GMA’s line up. Talking of political butterflies.
But in the meantime, the objective is 12-0!
Supposed to be, the want to distance, not sistance, sorry.
Mang Cocoy, medyo nanginginig na rin ang fingers ko.
While we are still making analysis, assessment and some hula who will be in the final list and protagonists in this epic battle between the good PEOPLE (of the Philippines) vs. GMA evil forces, kumustahin muna natin how the PEOPLE will sustain the campaign given the wealth and power of the pretender to the throne. .
Battle cry:
PEOPLE – Oust Gloria! Hello, Garci! Remember Smith! Let’s dance the chacha!
GMA – I am Sorry!
Campaign funds:
PEOPLE – Barya-barya
GMA – P450 million for each candidate
Source of Funds:
PEOPLE – Magpapalimos ng awa
GMA – The General Appropriations for Gov’t expenditures , PAGCOR, etc.
Wait till the day the Switik succeeds in wiping out all the “sagabals” in her plan to be a queen, and say, “Siguro, it is alright now to tell what really happened, and thank those who have helped free me from any legal responsibilities for making life miserable for all Filipinos. Anyway, it is to encourage them to leave enmasse for greener pastures abroad! Dapat nga magpasalamat sila sa akin kahit na mamamatay sila, magahasa, etc. sa ibang bansa kesa dito naman sila magahasa halimbawa ng mga horny na Amerikano!”
Sick? You bet she is! Bakit nakakapagtapang pa ang ungas?!
Joeseg:I’m on my way home from San Diego,Talk to you when Iget home.
BTW, in one of her post EDSA 2 speeches, the Great Switik in fact boasted that she and her husband would not have succeeded in snatching the presidency if not for the valuable help of those military officers she promoted to general as soon as she got to Malacanang. Tapalani pa ang dating sa totoo lang! One of them in fact was the crook who was reported hoarding dollars to his account in the US. Remember that Garcia guy? The Switik in fact mentioned his name in her thank you speech recorded in the Erap movie, a must see!
I hope this blog’s choice of candidates be noticed by the opposition party. In the evaluation of candidates to be included in the final list, sana mapansin din nila ang mga pinili natin dito. Siguro naman may nagbabasa sa kanila dito.
Sige Mang Cocoy, hintay ko po kayo!
Talagang itong si GMA, hindi nag-iingat sa kanyang statement. Hindi naman ito something to cause international furor, but this story is going around in a text message. Medyo pinahaba ko lang.
Di ba 3 kings kahapon?
May mga panauhin sa Malacanang, a provincial delegation of Girls Scouts, puro kababaihan. Masayang bumati kay GMA at masaya rin naman niyang binati. Saglit sigurong nakalimutan niya ang pagiging taga Pampanga, ang sabi niya: Kumusta kayong la-at! Maligayang TATLONG ARI!
All of those who contributed to the ouster of Erap should be excluded from the UNO lineup. True, they are winnable candidates, but how can one be sure that once elected they will stay with the opposition or revert back under the skirt of the glue. They just want to be adopted to make sure of their victory, dahil napakabaho ang pangalan ni aling glue at hindi sila nakakasiguro ng panalo kapag inin-dorse sila nito. They should take the risk of fielding real opposition figures, and in that way, walang sisihan sa banding huli. Kunin mo nga ang mga ito na kandidato, at nanalo pero bumalik naman sila kay ate glue, that means you wasted some slots that should have been given to real oppositions kahit na natalo, at least you did not lost by default. Kaysa naman inampon mo sila at pagkatapos iwanan ka, di ba mas lalong masakit yon? Hindi lang yon, baka sabihin pa, pagka-katanga naman kayong mga opposition, lalo na si Erap, naisahan na naman kayo. Kaya kung ako ang nasa UNO, manalo o matalo no way na magsasama ako ng mga traidor. Mga opportunists na hindi dapat pagkatiwalaan.
Next election ang day of reckoning na sana. Ipakita ng mga pilipino na hindi mga inutil ang natira sa Pilipinas dahil iyong mga matatalino, lumayas na! Kaya takot na takot na ang mag-asawang ganid! Dapat diyan inaaresto na sila for the power grabbing noong 2001 at vote stealing noong 2004. Patong-patong ang krimen ng mga iyan sa totoo lang, kaya lang pati hepe ng pulis at militar sangkot. Pati hustisya kasabwat! ‘Nak ng jueteng talaga!
Kapag ‘yang mga oportunists ay nakalusot, maligaya na naman ang walanghiyang pekeng presidente. Kilala natin sila kahit sumapi pa sila at tanggapin ng oposisyon.
Joeseg,
So UNO seems to want its Congressmen candidates to pledge that they would work for the impeachment of the woman. This is good. But they would rather prefer that their senatorial candidates keep mum on this issue. Kasi I suppose because they will later stand as judges of the impeachment complaint.
This seems logical. But wasn’t the House of Gloria saying all along during the past two impeachments that this was all a political exercise and not a court of law?
Aren’t senators politicians? And why should senators keep mum on such an important issue as this? Hypocritical, isn’t it?

Yeah!!! its the people vs. gloria and the hoods, let us show them, come election day, we should show them that we hates their guts by not voting for administration candidates.
prans
bilib din naman ako sa administrasyong ito. habang lumalakas daw ang piso kontra dolyar, habang napakarami ang hindi mabigyan ng hanapbuhay, ang meron ngang mga trabaho ay hindi maumentuhan ng karagdagang sahod ay nagtataasan pa ang presyo ng mga produktong petrolyo na siyang batayan upang magtaasan din ang halaga ng mga pangunahing bilihin. ito ba ang sinasabi ng mga hudas sa palasyo ng lagim na bandang huli ay mararamdaman ng nakararaming mamamayan ang pag-angat ng ekonomiya at hindi ng ilan lamang na may kaya? paano na ang ating mga maralitang kababayan? ‘yung mga walang pinagkakakitaan? ‘yung meron ngang hanapbuhay subalit hindi makasapat kahit doble higpit pa ng sinturon upang huwag maramdaman ang kagutuman?
nakakatawa naman yata ang dramang ito na dinidirihe ng baliw na babaeng mukhang daga sa malakanyang na ayaw umalis sa kanyang lungga!
habang kaya niyang utuin ang nagdarahop na taong bayan ay patuloy niyang ipapangako ang mga imposible at kulang na lamang ay sabihin niyang “huwag kayong mag-alala, mas matamis ang mamatay sa gutom na dilat ang inyong mga mata habang patuloy kayong umaasa sa aking magagandang programa. magtiis tiis muna kayo, konting panahon na lamang sapagkat hindi pa sapat ang aming naiipong kinikulimbat at pasasaan ba’t matatapos din ang inyong paghihirap.”
ano’ng uring salot ba ang pamahalaang ito at hindi na yata magkakaroon ng katapusan ang napakasamang bangungot na dinaranas ng ating bansa? sobra din ang tibay ng sikmura at kapal ng kahihiyan ng mga galamay nilang tila wala ring kasawaan sa mga kaaliwasawasang kanilang pinagpipiyestahan. animo’y mga payaso silang ang bawat papel na ginagampanan ay hindi nakakatawa kundi nakaririmarim na kabuktutan at mahilig silang gumawa ng nakakasukang kakenkoyang hindi naman makabawas sa inis na nararamdaman ng taong bayan bagkus ay komedya ng kamatayan!
tuldukan na! huwag palusutin sa susunod na halalan ang sino man sa kanyang (mga palpak ding) galamay upang wala nang makapagsalamangka sa panibagong impeachment na ihahain laban sa kanya!
joeseg, ay ano ga iyan? ala, ay pati baga naman madyong na laro natang dalawa ay kasama pa sa pagpili ng mga kandidato?

Good day everyone;
All’s well when we go choosing senatoriables, pero the bigger question for me, and i hope that the opposition should start looking at is how are they faring with their congressmen? Imagine an opposition in the lower house, as low in number as they are now, without Chiz Escudero and Allan Peter Cayetano or even T. Guingona III. This has always been their problem during impeachment time. They simply do not have the numbers in the lower house. I believe that our senators, except for a couple or few who are really bad eggs, are quite independent on various issues as it is put on the table. To me the key is to get numbers on the lower house and I firmly believe that this should be addressed first and foremost, otherwise it would be the same rehash all over again.
hahaha! ay naku, mrivera. muntik na akong mahulog sa katatawa. para ka palang may magnifying glass. nakilatis mo talaga yung poste ni joeseg na yun, noh. parang yung maling analisis ko, di baga? ala ey, ano baga ang payang-payang?
Hi pipol against GMA!
matagal na me ng blog dito, ngaun lang makakasawsaw sa usapan.
Let’s not forget ung party list, dagdagan pa natin, lalo na ung mga progressive blocs gaya ng BM, Anakpawis, Gabriela, di ba sila ung talagang binalahura ni pangit? dpat lang na dagdagan na natin ung ranks nila i-maximize na ung sa GABriela, and Anakpawis, dapat na ring mahalal sa party list system ang Migrante, Kabataan Party list and ung para sa muslim minorities… if pag na maximize natin yan meaning 3 for each party list, meron ng 25 reps agad ang oppsoition, i dagdag pa ung groups nina Ms. Eta, di ba kalaking bloc nyan!
Plus ung mga district reps ng opposition… kung wala lang dayaang mangyayari at mababantayan nating lahat ang votes… panalo na tau, sa lower house pa lang!
it was only like three days ago that mike Defensor has been talking about “reconciliation” with erap. and now he’s singing a different tune?
http://www.tribune.net.ph/headlines/20070105hed3.html
mike d. is trying to be all things to all people. a flip flopper like joh kerry. this is done in an effort to confuse the public. bantayan nyo si mike defensor. he will issue more contradictory statements in the future.
besides, matutuwa ba ang mga erap supporters sa pinagsasabi ni mike defensor? he’d probably say something “reconciliatory” the next day to appease the erap followers.
this is typical of the administration’s stance in pursuing CHA CHA: one day they say they will pursue it with, they next day they’ll say they won’t pursue it. then they’ll reverse themselves and say they are still pushing for it… ad infinitum.
Flipflopping (or being all things to all people) is one way to keep their allies motivated (cha cha) while at the same time they don’t want to get the people too angry for pushing the fraudulent “People’s Initiative” and for recklessly pursuing CON ASS.
ptz_public window,
noted yan, iha or iho, sige ikakampanya ko sa mga family & friends ko ang Migrante kasi migrante na rin ako ngayon. pero mali yata ang multiplication mo? hala ka, ayaw ni mrivera ng ganyan. di bale, pareho lang tayo, mahina sa ispeling.
iho po, hihi…
actually 5 party list from Bayan bloc so 3×5=25 po, then from Ms. Eta’s bloc di ko po alam kung ilang ang naka field na bloc nila, or just from Akbayan lang…
pareho po tayo migrant, pero ako ay migrant worker di pa po immigrant, anyway, i’ll endorse po yung KABATAAN party list… dahil minsan din po akong naging part ng student movement against erap noon, but vigorously will campaign for the BAYAN group.
naku, iho. inulit mo pa. ang 3×5=15. baka madagdag bawas tayo niyan. sorry ha, makulit ako.
Natatandaan ko ang sinabi ni Susan Roces noon tungkol kay Mike Defensor. Sabi ni Susan sayang daw itong si Mike dahil bata pa napakasinungaling na. I think so. Mike is very articulate in both English and Tagalog. He’s a smart talker. May laman ang ulo. Halatang may utak. Sayang lang, sa masama niya ginagamit ang talino niya. Sabi ni Susan, napakasinungaling (like his mam).
haha… antok lang po… eniwei… nakapag patawa namn cguro.
ptz_public window,
huwag kang magtampo, ha ne. talagang ganyan, tao lang po, nagkakamali din. kakampi mo iyong 2 anak ko sa pilipinas, alam ko kabataan party yung iboboto nila. yung isa, dating member ng cegp nuong nasa college, yung pangalawa member ng gabriela youth.
wala pong prob! sanay tau dyan… sa pag project ng 25 hihihi… may ibang iniisip lang po… cguro ung 25 na iniisip ko ambag pa ng ilang party list from CBAC, etc etc… para anu pat mamumulat din ang membership ng ibang (middle) party list na pinagkakaisahan na tau ng mga kalahi ni Golum… kaya aabot at lalampas pa sa 15 ang ambag ng mga party list sa opposition, bantayan lang natin na wag magpatakbo at mang lito ng botante ang mga patakbuhing party list ng malakanyang… alam nyo na yun kung sinu sino… tignan ang proceedings ng dec railroading ng con-ass nndun sila…
iisa naman ang kalaban natin ngaun, ung userper sa palasyo by the river, kaya ung party list na iluloklok natin dapat pro people and para sa makabagong pulitika.
gnun po ba?
pakisabi po sa anak nyo na mmeber ng CEGP na kumusta ako kay Jose cosido (national chair ng CEGP ngaun) pag nagkita sila.
maswerte po kayo at nagkaroon kayo ng anak na naabala sa panunulat at CEGP. Mabuhay po kayo!
Ako naman po’y dating NUSP, ang unyon ng mag-aaral na nag-sisi kung bakit c mike defensor ay naging bahagi ng NUSP… nakakalungkot po, pero ganyan talaga, kaya humanda sya… di sya mananalo sa KABATAANG Pinoy!
ewan ko kung kilala pa ng anak ko yung jose cosido, gumradweyt na kasi siya at wala na sa cegp. tungkol kay mike tyanak defensor, naging biktima na pala kayo ng manloloko na ito. maganda i-expose ng nusp ito nang sa gayon malaman ng taumbayan ang mga panloloko, at panggagago ng walang hiyang ito. ikampanya mo na rin sa mga kaibigan mo, for senators 12-0 para patalsikin si arroyo.
actually po c mike d’tyanak ay naging prexy ng NUSP, ang broadest alliance ng mga student councils sa buong Pnas, dito po sa Union na eto na train c mike, tsk tsk tsk…
sayang mga natutunan nya dito tungkol sa principles ng youth movement, ngaun numero uno na syang kaaway ng kabataan dahil sa pagtalikod nya sa principles na to…
napaka prestigious ng union na to, counting members as far as Raul Roco and Edgar Jopson, tapos dudumihan ng mike d’tyanak!
Yari ka sa kabataan Mike D’tyanak!

Actually matagal ko nang magbibigay ng kuro-kuro about sa nangyari sa bansa natin especially sa pamamalakad ni GLORIA LABANDERA at ngayon lang ako nagkakaroon ng pagkakataon.Kahit anong gawing pagpapabango ni GLORING ay talagang walang mangyayari kasi napakabaho na niya eh.Alam nyo ba kung bakit nasa likod nya ung mga militar kasi pinapaamoy nya ng kayang…. alam nyo na . Eto namang mga retired militar all the time ay nasa likod kasi nabubusalan ng pera ng bayan. Sana sa darating na eleksyon magiging mapagmatayag at matiyaga tayo sa pagbabantay ng ating boto para di na tayo madaya. Pero paano mangyari yon ang COMELEC ay sa kanila tapos si GARCI MANDARAYA tatakbo pabilang kongresman o Doberman ng Bukidnon.
C Mike Defensor di ba kapanahuna ni MAKOY ay dating aktibista pero bakit di niya kayang ipagtanggol ang mga pumupunta sa lansanga at nagmamartsa. Eh paano naman ung mga walang awang pinapatay especially karamihan ung miyembro ng Bayan Muna. Wala na ba tayong karapatang tumuligsa sa mga mandarayang nakaluklok sa Malacanang.Ayoko na kahit mahirap mapawalay sa pamilya mag-aabroad na lang ako para di ko makita ang paghihirap ng ating bayan.
Kahit anong gawin ng Malacanang di sila mananalo sa oposisyon ngayong eleksyon pwera lang talaga pag nandaya.Pero eto naman talaga ang gagawin nila kasi gusto nilang ipagpatuloy ang paghihirap ng sambayanan. Ako, ayokong lulusot si ANGARA, MIRIAM SANTIAGO AT IBA PANG PUMANIG KE GLORIA LABANDERA.
With regards to AFP modernization plan I think there’s no problem with that for as long as it will be planned wisely and all the money is accounted for. Regarding Gloria’s capacity as Secretary of Defense, she is really afraid that’s she’s clinging to that position even though there area so ay valiant and capable men to lead the Defense Department(but those persons only with dignity at di mahawakn ni Gloring; meron pa kaya? a big question mark.To eliminate the NPA, first the government should know the real reason and the roots of this struggle. If the government will give the basic needs such food, shelter, education and job, I think this kind of problem, Communism, that we have wil be eliminated gradually. Why they can’t give this thing because they are all kurakot.
Great Switik, Secretary of Defense? Migod! Swinapang na lahat! I suppose the other secretaries of hers, too, are rendered useless because she thinks she is Numero Uno! OK lang sila as long as she pays!
ramil, ang taong balot ng tae ang pagkatao ay katulad na rin ng isang bulok na naaagnas na bangkay at kahit anong paligo pa ng pabango, mangingibabaw pa rin ang umaalingasaw na amoy ng kabulukan. ganyang ang baliw na babaeng mukhang daga sa malakanyang na ayaw umalis sa kanyang lungga!
Mrivera, Isabel at sa lahat,
Araku, kaya pala hindi ako tumodas todas sa madyong, pinaguusapan ninyo ako rine! Mantakin mong ninyong standing jueteng na, I mean, waiting, na-olat pa ng paningit. Ubos ang panalo ko sa tong-its sa kabilang parang, pati puhunan, sa-ir na sa-ir. Naala-ala ko yong kasabihan, gaor pa nang gaor, sarsar na sa puntor.
Bigla kamo akong pinagsaktan ng ti-yan, takbo sa likod ng payang-payang. Eh tumilas, mabuti nakita ako ng bunot ng ni-yog, nakaraos ng maluwalhati. Aba’y ano gang bagong balita rine sa lugar na ire?
Isabel, yang numerong 3, 5, 15, pwede yang tayaan sa jueteng. Irambol mo. Samahan mo ng pompyang na 5. Ay, alaws nga palang jueteng dyan sa kinalalagyan mo. Dito sa Pinas, sabi ni GMA at kanyang alipores, wala nang jueteng sa buong kapuluan. At totoo naman. Sa pangarap.
Kaya dito sa Pinas ngayon, kapag nakatulog ka, mangarap ng maganda na ang ekonomiya ayon kay GMA, mababangungot ka! At dyhos na mahabagin, pagkagising mo, patay ka na! Peks man.
Bilib rine kay kabayang Mrivera, liit liit ng sinabi ko, natandaan.
johnmarzan,
Mike Defensor is an ultimate trapo. Yeah, he is his mama in the amoy imburnal palace. Kuhang-kuha ang pagka oportunista at ipokrita ng kanyang padrina.
Tribune’s Ernesto Maceda says only Defensor, Duque 111, and Pichay are sure to run under Glueria’s senatorial ticket. Others, he says, declined.
http://www.tribune.net.ph/commentary/20070109com4.html
Tanyo mga pare maski nga sa loob na lang ng sabungan ng administrasyon eh even a month before this meron nang brewing Lakas vs Liberal battle ergo, ermita vs defensor respectively) kasi nga binubusalan ng mga Lakas ang mga isteytment ng batang Defensor eh. Pero wag na rin kayo magtaka kasi 720 degrees na syang opposite ng kanyang pagiging aktibista when he was younger.
Erap VS Arroyo fight ha! Just goes to show that Erap even in prison can win the election if he is allowed to run. SLORC Philippine-style sa totoo lang, and Erap is the Philippine Au San Suu Kyii! Wow! Talaga naman!

From today’s Tribune Online:
Gov’t scored for denying foreign protesters entry to RP
01/09/2007
Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel Jr. yesterday assailed what he branded as the fascistic tendency of the Arroyo administration as he condemned the deportation of a British missionary priest just hours after setting foot at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) last Friday.
Fr. Frank Nally was reportedly barred from entering the country, on suspicion of being a participant in the militant groups’ protest rallies during the 12th Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) Summit in Cebu City, due to start on Jan. 10.
“I denounce the fascistic treatment of Fr. Nally at the NAIA. They held him upon his arrival Friday night and sent him back to Hong Kong Saturday morning without any reason,” he noted.
Pimentel said Nally, upon arrival at NAIA, was detained by airport security and put on the next plane bound for Hong Kong the following day.
Based on information that reached the senator, the priest’s name was included in the so-called watchlist of foreigners barred from coming to the country, supposedly due to reports that they are out to participate in the demonstrations against the Asean Summit.
“I suspect that President Arroyo did not want him coming to the country because he was here with British Member of Parliament Claire Short last July to look into mining operations in Mindanao and the extra-judicial killings,” he stressed.
Considering the circumstances behind the maltreatment and deportation of Nally, Pimentel asked “Are we now under martial law?”
The opposition senator said the shameful incident smacks of the Arroyo government’s insincerity and double talk in inviting foreign observers to look into the human rights situation in the country in the wake of series of extra-judicial killings of political activists.
Earlier, an American activist, human rights lawyer Brian Campbell, was also banned from entering the country.
Militant groups, upset over the country’s human rights record, planned mass street protests during the leaders’ summit in Cebu City.
Meanwhile, it may be all systems go for this week’s meeting of Asian leaders, but one of the main venues for the summit is far from finished.
As rain pelted down Monday, the roof of the new $11.2-million Cebu International Convention Center (CICC) did not leak as it did following the abrupt cancellation in December of the Asean and East Asia summit meetings.
But as media teams moved into the CICC, they were greeted by workmen still repairing and finishing much of the interior.
With the front doors closed, cars were diverted to the basement, where security was non-existent. Bags were not checked, and identification cards were only checked at the front gate.
Most of the furniture and decorations that were in place in December were removed shortly after the cancellation, and exhibition rooms were closed, architect Manuel Guanzon told Agence France Presse.
The main entrance was bare and workmen could be seen repairing parts of the floor that was damaged when water leaked through the front doors.
But organizers said they were confident the work would be completed in time.
“We are just finishing putting in an air-conditioning unit for the ground floor and changing an exhibition hall into a meeting room for the summit,” Guanzon said. “The workmen will be finished tonight.”
As for the holes in the roof, he added, they were repaired shortly after the cancellation.
“The problem was that someone forgot to seal some glass panels,” Guanzon stressed.
While the ministers and leaders will meet behind closed doors in the luxurious surroundings of the Shangri-La resort on Mactan Island, more than 40 separate meetings including the East Asia group will be held at the CICC.

ang akala kasi ng mga “dapo” sa malakanyang ay patuloy nilang maililigaw ang paniniwala ng taong bayan sa pamamagitan ng kanilang mga hindi nakakatawang antics. iniisip nila palagi na hindi kailanman mawawala ang bisa ng kanilang salamangka upang huwag mawala sa poder ang baliw na babaeng mukhang daga na ayaw umalis sa kanyang lungga na kanilang inaalagaang mabuti upang sa lahat ng mga kinukurakot mula sa kaban ng bayan ay kahati sila at palaging “nauulanan”.
buo ang ekspektasyon nilang kaya pang utuin ang mamamayan sa kabila ng patong patong at sapin saping kaaliwaswasang kanilang mula sa pandaraya sa eleksiyon, pagpo-proklama sa magnanakaw bilang kanilang presidente habang walang kamalay malay ang mga tao sa kahimbingan ng tulog, pagbasura sa dalawang inihaing impeachment, pagsusulong nang paspasan sa cha cha sa kalaliman ng gabi, pambabastos sa batas sa pamamagitan ng “buong alagang pagsusulit” kay smith sa US embassy, muli, sa disoras ng gabi sa gitna ng katotohanang napatunayang nagkasala ng panghahalay sa isang pinay. sige pa rin ang hirit ng mga ungas gayung nagdudumilat sa kanilang harapan ang katotohanang isinusuka na ng taong bayan ang bulok na administrasyon ng pekeng pangulong ang asal ay mas masahol pa sa isang batang paslit na walang ginawa kundi pairalin ang kanyang sumpong!
maaaring pakilusin nila ang salapi upang muling bilhin ang boto ng mga tao subalit hindi na sila nakakasiguro kung ang isusulat pa sa balota ang pangalan ng mga bulok na alipores ng baliw na babaeng mukhang daga.
ang halalan sa mayo ang oras ng paniningil ng pautang. kasama na pati tubo!
Tama ka Mrivera ang halalan ngayong MAYO ay oras ng paniningil ng utang kasama na pati tubo. Alam mo sa tindi ng inis ko GLORIA LABANDERA kumbaga inilabas ko ung galit
ko pag makita ko ung letrato nya sa mga pahayagan dinuduraan ko(sorry nagiging bastos ako) at kung minsan nilalagyan ko ng sungay at buntot. Sobrang inis ko ke GLORIA LABANDERA kapal ng mukha sana tamaan ng kidlat yan. Alam ko ngayong eleksyon pakikilusin na naman nila ung salapi to ensure their victory. Me PH.D na pala ngayon sa pandaraya kailangan si GARCILLANO ang professor mo at sa University of Malacanang ka mag-aaral. Aprubado po yan ng DEP.ED at CHED.
Alam mo chi ung pagkapostpone ng ASEAN Summit ay malaking dagok sa atin kasi di pala kaya nating kayang maghost ng ganong event. Maramimg idinahilan eh sabihin kapalpakan ni GLORIA ang lahat tapos ung tungkol ke SMITH para tayong uto-uto sa paningin ng mga kano. Takot si GLORING na ma ala MARCOS. Sa oras ng summit sigurado ipagmamalaki ni GLORING ung economy natin lalo na ung peso na gumaganda pero ang tanong wala mas marami ngayon ang nagugutom walang tirahan pagkain, damit at edukasyon. Nasaan na yong ipinagmalaki nyang 2 million jobs para sa pinoy. Mahiya na siya umaasa na lang siya sa amin galing ung perang padala namin para sa pmilya namin, OFW po ako.
Gloria is so damn scared, she starting to pee in her pants.

Pinay maid faces death for killing ward in Kuwait
01/09/2007
A Filipino worker is facing death by hanging for allegedly killing her seven-year-old ward last Saturday.
Foreign Affairs Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs Esteban Conejos yesterday said Kuwaiti authorities have already filed murder and double frustrated murder charges before the Kuwait Prosecutor’s Office against the female Filipino worker.
Conejos declined to identify the Filipino, a 28-year-old domestic helper from Maguindanao.

unit of al-Adan Hospital for multiple fracture, is also under close security by Kuwaiti police, he said.
Reports said the suspect jumped from the second floor of her employer’s residence in Mumbarak Al-Kabeer District, some 30 km from Kuwait.
She also reportedly slit the throat of the boy’s 11-year-old brother and stabbed his 17-year-old sister.
The OFW and the two surviving children were rushed to the hospital.
The motive was not immediately known.
Foreign Affairs spokesman Eduardo Malaya, quoting an embassy report, for his part, said the domestic helper’s physicians expect her condition to stabilize in a few days.
The embassy has already hired the services of two Kuwaiti lawyers to provide her legal assistance.
Conejos said they want to ensure that all her legal rights are safeguarded, adding the OFW will stand trial upon her release from the hospital. Michaela P. del Callar

o, gloria, paano na ang DH na ito? may aasahan bang tulong sa iyo? o, pababayaan mo na lang na bitayin? kunsabagay, ano ba sa iyo. karami pang mga alilang puwede mong i-export, di ba?
gloria, hindi ang serbisyo lang ng mga abugado ang kailangan dito kundi ang personal mong atensiyon. tumutugon ang mga OFW sa iyong panawagan upang huwag mawalan ng balong ang kaban ng dolyar na nagbibigay buhay sa iyong pamahalaan, pagkakataon mo naman upang ipakita ang iyong malasakit (kung meron ka).
Wonder what happened – the maid might have been abused so bad her reason left her.
This kind of thing will continue while Gloria makes labour export the pillar of her economic policies.
Ramil Brusko,
Totoo ang mga sinabi mo. Kung wala kayong mga bayaning OFW, matagal nang na-delete ang reyna engkantada sa Pinas.
chi,
nakakaasar nga lang dahil lumalabas na ang mga OFW ay ginagawa ni gloria na mga gagong bayani. inuuto. pinaiikot. ginagawang bakang gatasan!
Chi, thanks sa compliments. Sa paningin ko di naman kami mga bayani natural lang na kailangan naming magsusumikap para sa pamilya namin. Kung meron lang maiibigay na trabaho ung gobyerno ayaw kong mag-abroad at iiwan ung pamilya ko. Ang ikinasasakit ng loob ko nagbabayad kami sa OWWA taun-taon pero nasaan ang pondo ginamit ng unanong bansot na ayaw kumawala sa Malacanang noong nakaraang eleksyon. Isa pa gustuhin man naming magloan sa OWWA di kami makapagloan kesyo walang pondo at maraming dahilan.Wal ka na talagabg maasahan sa gobyerno natin. Sana naman magkakaroon pa ng pagbabago para sa susunod na henerasyon ay di mahihirapan. Madedelete pa kaya ung reyana engkantada na yan sa Malacanang? Ang gusto burahin talaga.
Alam nyo Chi and Mrivera, kawawa talaga ung mga OFW especially ung mga DH kasi maraming nakakaranas ng maltreatment sa kanila pero isinawalang bahala ng gobyerno. Siguro naalala nyo pa ung nangyari tungkol ke Angelo Dela Cruz sa IRAQ sa akin lang dapat pinabayaan na lang un kasi kasalanan ng mamang un. Eh dahil kabalen ng bansot kaya tinulung at pinul-out ung mga sundalo natin as peacekeeping force di ba nakakahiya sa UN. Ginawa pang bayani si Angelo dapat pinugutan na lang ng ulo un. Ang dapat asikasuhin ng gobuerno natin ay tulungan ung mga nangagailangan ng tulong. Ung kaguluhan ng nangyari between ISRAEL and LEBANOM pinauwi nila ung mga kababayan nating pinoy pero pagdating sa PINAS wala di na tinulungan wala na wala na talaga di tayo kayang protektahan ng gobyerno natin.
Eto muna tungkol sa mga pulitikong namamangka sa dalawang ilog. O ano mga igan susuportahan ba natin sila.

Mula ngayon hanggang Feb. 12, deadline ng pag-file ng certificate of candidacy sa mga kandidato parasa sa national positions, marami pang pagbabago ang mangyayari sa mga listahan ng administrasyon at oposisyon.
Katulad na lamang ng grupo nina Senate President Manny Villar na nasa listahan ng parehong administrasyon at oposisyon.
Ang grupo ni Villar ay kinabibilangan ng kapwa niyang re-electionist na mga senador na sina Kiko Pangilinan, Ralph Recto, Joker Arroyo at ang dalawang batang congressman na sina Alan Peter Cayetano at Gilbert Remulla.
Madalas si Villar sa Tanay kay Erap dahil nag-uusap sila na maipasok ang mga kasamahan niya sa tiket ng UNO.
Sina Villar, Pangilinan, Recto at Cayetano ay mataas sa mga survey kaya malaki ang kanilang tsansang manalo kapag maayos lang ang kanilang organisasyon at hindi madaya ng garapalan.
Si Alan Peter Cayetano ay sigurado sa tiket ng oposisyon.
Si Joker Arroyo ay hindi masyadong mataas sa survey. Baka na-apektuhan sa baho ng pangalan ni Gloria Arroyo. May nagsasabi rin parang pagod na siya sa pulitika.
Si Gilbert Remulla, kahit na magiting ang kanyang ipinakita sa Congress sa impeachment, sa imbestigasyon ni dating Comelec Commissioner Garcillano at sa Con-Ass, hindi pa masyadong nakikilala sa nasyonal na pulitika.
Nababalitaan natin ang pag-uusap nina Makati Mayor Jemomar Binay na pangulo ng United Opposition at ng Nacionalista sa pamumuno ni Senate President Manny Villar at LP, Drilon wing (dahil mayroong Atienza wing) sa pamumuno ni Sen. Franklin Drilon, at ang mga ilang miyembro ng LDP na tumiwalag kay Sen. Edgardo Angara.
Si Villar ay pinalakpakan ng marami ng ginawa niyang express ang impeachment complaint laban kay Erap. Ngunit mukhang napatawad na siya ni Erap. Kaya kahit medyo masama pa ang loob ng iba niyang mga supporters, hindi na lang kumikibo ang marami.
Ang malaking problema talaga ay si Pangilinan.
Hindi pa rin siya mapatawad ng marami sa oposisyon, lalo pa ang mga supporters ni FPJ, ang pagkuntsaba sa pandaraya ni Arroyo noong 2004 eleksyon. Di ba sa congressional canvassing noon, kapag gusto ipakita nina Sen. Aquilino Pimentel, Sen. Serge Osmeña, Sen. Tessie Oreta at Rep. Dinlanggalen ang mga dayaan sa Mindanao, sasabihin lang ni Pangilinan at ni Raul Gonzales ay “Notedâ€.
Hanggang ngayon hinihintay ng taumbayan ang paghingi ni Pangilinan ng paumanhin sa kanyang ginawang malaking kasalanan.
Nililigawan rin daw ng Malacañang ang grupo nina Villar at maa-ari silang dalhin bilang common candidates. Pwede ba yun.
__________________________________________________________
Sana kung nagbago na ung kilalang taga administration senator at pumanig sa oposisyon maging tapat sana sila sa taumbayan upang sila’y ating iboto eh kung ganyan sila gustung maging common candidate meron silang mga adhikain na para lang sa kanila ika nga self interest di ba eh wala rin tayong aasahan sa kanila. Darating ang araw magigin balimbing din ang mga yan.
ramil, daming problemang pinagdaanan ang pamilya ko kasama na ang pagpapaaral sa mga anak, pero ni anumang ayuda ay walang naibahagi ang lintek na OWWAng ‘yan. sinubukan ko nang palapitin at pahingiin ng tulong ang mag-iina ko subalit hindi man lamang inasikaso!
