Got this from two friends:
Gloria Arroyo was loudly booed and heckled twice by the audience at the Il Divo concert at the PICC last night.
The first time she was booed was when she arrived late for the start of the concert.
The second was at the end of the concert when the audience was asked to remain seated until after GMA has eft the hall. Instead of remaining in their seats, the crowd hastily stood up and started booing loudly while leaving the hall ahead of the visibly irritated GMA.
Serves her right!
sayang, wala ako doon. (I can’t afford the ticket). masarap sana maki-boo.
To think that last night’s affair was an elite/upper middle class crowd. (Tickets were P20,000; 15,000; P10,000; and P5,000.)
Pag pumunta yan sa squatter areas na walang security, baka gula-gulanit yan kapag lumabas.
I remember in the waning days of Marcos, Imee Marcos was also booed during a concern of a foreign group at the same place, PICC.
This is form of a social boycott, as advocated by Randy David. Click here. Let’s ostracize Arroyo and her cohorts in every opportunity we can. Like what Ma. Theresa Pangilinan did during their commencement exercises in Cavite. Like what the UP workers did when she went to PGH. Like what the UP students did to Esperon.
Let’s make the Philippines unsafe for Gloria Arroyo.
naku ha, ms. ellen, astang reyna talaga ang bruha. pasalamat siya at boo lang ang inabot niya. kung anduon si joeseg at mrivera, siguradong mag-asawang bookol ang ang tutubo sa nuo niya (parang sungay) kasi tiyak babatuhin siya ng martilyo ng dalawa.
pahiram din ystakei. PATALSIKIN NA! NOW NA!
Why was GLORIA irritated ? She just got what she deserves ! Buti nga ! Kudos to those who booed GLORIA !
Mabuti “boo” lang ang inabot niya. Sana tinisod pa siya ng matuluyan na ang pagkapandakekok niya! Salamat naman at nagising na ang mga mamamayan. Ituloy tuloy na sana nila hanggang election ng matangal na ang bruha! Suno sunorin na natin ang pangbabastos sa kanya! She does not deserve to be respected!
Ellen:
Wonderful! There’s more of that to come. I put Randy David’s piece on my blog permanently for every visitor to read.
Salamat for this piece of refreshing news, Ellen. Buti nga sa kaniya dahil ang akala niya natutuwa ang mga pilipino sa kaniya.
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
From activist Linggoy Alcauz:
Bwaaaahhh. At the anniverary of Edsa Dos!
I can just imagine the UP students getting their rotten eggs ready once again. This evil administration will be afraid to show their faces in public, not knowing whats about to happen next. The shoe is about to go on to the other’s foot and they deserve every bit of it. Happy Esda Dos! anniversary
Forget the senators list, it should now be the turn of the Personalities Egg List. hahahah
Respect can’t be demanded. It is gained.
Much to our desire to be civilized in our dealings with other people, GMA and her cohorts are exceptions.
Giving them a slightest inch of consideration is a total surrender of our own dignity and honor.
They’ve lost everyone’s respect when they illegally assumed power and continuously crush every aspect of our lives.
Booing isn’t enough. Even hanging.
Definitely, that’s the kind of news that I would like to read. Akala siguro ng pandak na magnanakaw ng botong iyan ay porke’t naca PICC na siya ay di na siya mababastos. It serve’s that gremlin right. Im quite sure di lang pagka irita ang naramdaman niyan kundi na rin takot. Konting tiis na lang mabubura na rin siya sa mundong ito kasama na rin ng mga buwaya niyang galamay.
Why are we elated with this news. Because her end is near! A BIG celebration awaits her fall!
Hooray for “Ostracism”! A powerful tool to deliver our message even at the local level. Ostracize pro-Gloria local officials.
Just to share a pasatext I’ve got early this morning:
Isang mapagmahal na ina ang nangaral ng ganito sa paslit pang anak: ”Tandaan mo, anak… ang batang swápang at sinungaling ay hindi tumatangkad, umuusli ang mga ngipin, at nananatiling unano.”
It took me a while to log into here. I thought I’ve already been banned. Anyway, Malacanang now downplays the incident saying “Ang mga nag-boo iilan lang. Siyempre kahit saan pumunta may hindi kakampi si Pangulo.” To them I say this: Nakakahiya! Dapat huwag na siyang mag-attend ng kung anong concert sa susunod.
Malaya’s account by Regina Bengco on the booing of Gloria Arroyo:
PRESIDENT Arroyo was booed twice by the audience at the Il Divo concert at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) last Saturday, according to text messages that circulated yesterday.
The text messages said Arroyo was booed the first time because she arrived late for the start of the group’s concert.
The second time was at the end of the concert when the audience was asked to remain seated – as is the protocol in events where she is present – until after the President has left the hall.
But the crowd reportedly stood up and started booing loudly while leaving the hall ahead of the visibly irritated President.
Press materials issued prior to the event said the concert at the PICC Plenary Hall was supposed to start at 8 p.m.
A member of the audience said Arroyo arrived at 9 p.m. and the first booing took place when the crowd was told earlier that the concert was going to be delayed because the organizers were waiting for the President to arrive.
When Arroyo arrived, nobody stood up in customary greeting to the President.
“It was more of derision rather than outrage, because she was already an hour late and then she wanted us to wait again for her to leave,” a member of the audience said.
Col. Romeo Prestoza, Presidential Security Group (PSG) commander, said he was not present during the concert but was told that the President was on time. He said Arroyo left Malacañang at 8 p.m. and arrived at 8:30 p.m.
Prestoza said Arroyo was not heckled by the crowd, but only by a few people who “do not understand protocol or have different political beliefs.”
“Kahit saan, may lugar na hindi lahat kakampi mo,” he said.
He said the concert proper ended at 10 p.m. and the President was back in Malacañang at 10:26 p.m.
The operatic group Il Divo is composed of American tenor David Miller, French tenor Sebastien Izambard, Swiss tenor Urs Buhler and Spanish baritone Carlos Marin.
Their third album, “Siempre,” was released on Nov. 27, which featured Il Divo’s take on classics, including “Somewhere.”
Also featured are four brand new tracks – “Come Primavera,” “La Vida Sin Amor,” “Una Noche” and “Tell That To My Heart.”
Saturday’s incident was not the first time that Arroyo was booed during a concert.
She was also heckled when she attended Mandy Moore’s concert at The Fort in Taguig during the election period in 2004 when she ran for president.
The President was booed when announced the grant of a citation to Moore.
This just affirms the surveys after surveys that have been taken that GLORIA IS NOT liked by a great majority, from ALL levels of society. Malacañan can spin the story all they want, yet, the bottom line remains: when you stink, you smell; when you are hated, you most certainly are not liked at all.
The booing proved, too, that GLORIA spells political death for those running under her ticket. Should more than 3 Senatoriables under GLORIA’s ticket win, MASSIVE CHEATING occured. Given public sentiments, it won’t make sense.
Hahahah! “Pag pumunta yan sa squatter areas na walang security, baka gula-gulanit yan kapag lumabas.”
Classic ‘yan, Ellen.
Ang sarap sigurong maki-gulanit kay Glueria. Doon ako makikitulong sa pag-gulanit ng kanyang dila, at ng hindi pamarisan ng mga susunod na henerasyon ang pagka-sinungaling. Tapos ay pupukpukin ko ang utak at ng sumambulat para hindi pamarisan ang kayang pagka-madurugas at pandadaya!
Other than Malaya, Tribune, Abante, the other papers like Manila Standard, Inquirer, Phil. Star did not carry the above news of Arroyo’s booing at the concert. Manila Standard is a pro-Malacanang paper. Ang Inquirer naman medyo doble-kara din. Ang Phil. Star with Max Soliven’s demise still has his daughter Sara and is perceived to be friendly to Malacanang. May column nga si Sara Soliven defending Davide’s appointment.
The recent booing gave GLORIA yet another reality-check. She, & the GLORIALETS have an inkling that the only way to win would have to be by CHEATING, or a NO-ELECTION scenario. Take the Editorial I read in the Jan. 22 issue of The Daily Tribune entitled, “Puno Trap”. Here’s an exerpt of it:
“Don’t tell him that he didn’t warn you.
Although still smarting from the Tupas fiasco, Interior Secretary Ronaldo Puno the other day just the same announced that more suspension and dismissal orders — around 200 and all resulting from alleged corruption — against local officials may be served before the end of the election season.
These grassroot executives, Puno said, had better realize that they cannot seek refuge behind the Omnibus Election Code, which, according to the Arroyo hatchetman, cannot stop the suspension or dismissal of elected officials during a poll season.
His apparent gameplan is to actually encourage supporters of these executives to call for “people power” and then the police or military, or both, will move in to “restore” order.
If order cannot be restored, then Puno will recommend that a rebel town, city or province be listed as a “hot spot,” a label that will justify placing it under Comelec control, which will simply mean that the Arroyo cops and soldiers will take over, perhaps even over the ballot boxes in the mid-term elections only a little more than four months away.
If that tactic will not work in the face of possible people power uprisings beyond Gov. Niel Tupas’ Iloilo province, Malacañang will push aside the Commission on Elections and itself declare “failure” to hold elections in the hot spots made hotter by the spontaneous revolts.”

I guess when your survival is on the line, you will do ANYTHING to make you sure you CLAW ON TO YOUR SEAT. The recent booing of GLORIA gave her a reality check of the chances of her GLORIALETS winning in the upcoming elections. Take the Editorial of The Daily Tribune in its Jan. 22 issue. Only a LOSER would think of CHEATING, or concocting a No-Election scenario. Here’s an exerpt of the article entitled, “The Puno Trap”:
“Don’t tell him that he didn’t warn you.

Sorry, forgot to include this part of the article:
“Such declaration can be whipped up and spun around by the Palace as the general situation obtaining in the country, and, voila, its no-elections scenario has miraculously come about.”

As long as Malaya and Tribune carried the news of heckling and booing of the bansot at Il Divo, I’m contented. I don’t read the rest of Phil newspapers, heheh!
After this show of elites disgusts toward the buliliiiit, we will see her attend only the shows of Pakyaw, Bilmaantot at Maga-star!
Ellen, agree totally: “Let’s make the Philippines unsafe for Gloria Arroyo.”
It’s the elites turn to act more seriously than just annoying the Pidal woman. If they participate in turning Glueria into a “gula-gulanit” persona, they sure will make a great difference.
They don’t have to physically do it, just be one with the calls of the ordinary pinoys “patalsikin” ang bansot, and make their presence felt more often.
Gusto nila, sumali sila dito sa blog para magdakdak, tutal binabasa ito ng kampon ni Glueria Engkantada!
Kabayang Chi, tutoo naman dalawang diaryo lang ang binabasa ng mga tao ngayon: Malaya and Tribune. Please include Abante tabloid where Ka Ellen also writes in Pilipino.
Glueria’s ego, na kasing-laki ng Araneta Coliseum, must be terribly hurt when the “audiece left the hall ahead of the visibly irritated GMA.” BUTI NGA! More of this kind of happenings, please!
Yeah right,“Let’s make the Philippines unsafe for Gloria Arroyo.”
I’m proud of those people who BOOED Gloria!
Gosh, there ARE courageous people in this country – right on guys!
Pag sinabing Malaya, kasama na ang Abante at Abante-Tonight dahil magkakapatid sila.
Ah ganoon ba. Abante’s Malaya’s sister paper only written in Pilipino. Medyo tabloid style lang at maraming mga pilyong articles. There are also many blind items in this tabloid that I enjoy reading. Diyan ko nalaman kung sino si Mulaway (Dick Gordon) at senator na patumbling-tumbling at lakuwatsero sa Senado (Lito Lapid).
Mrs. Gloria Arroyo should realize that her public support is down to the drain. She is a disgrace of our nation. She deserves a booooo and publicly insulted for tyrant rule, cheating, lying and stealing the true peoples’ mandate. GMA has a long bumpy road to regain the lost of public trust and confidence. I believe it cannot even achieve her lifetime.
This maniac loves the limelight..Gusto niya pakaway-kaway at pinapalakpakan..Mahilig magpunta sa mataong gathering..Siguro nagsawa na rin sa mga palakpak nina Ermita,Bunye at iba pa niyang alipores sa Malacanang.Palakpak ng kapareho niyang sinungaling.
This jerk deserves to be shamed in public..Ito ang achilles heel ng mga laos..
worth the price for witnessing gma be booed. soon it will be cheaper, maybe even free.
Chi, mandirigma, Abante is owned and managed by Allen macasaet, son of Malaya publisher, Jake Macasaet.
It has a completely separate staff from Malaya.They make more money. Abante is the number One tabloid in the country. Print circulation of about 500,000 daily and online visitors of more than a million a day.
Thanks for the info, Ellen. Abante and Abante-Tonight complete my breakfast every morning. Mas una sila sa Online kesa sa Malaya here in my place.
Nobody, not one, remembered to bring rotten eggs/tomatoes??
But Ka Ellen, bakit may Abante na may Abante Tonite pa? What’s the difference? Why two tabloids? Is it one for the day and the other for the night? Tulad noon siguro na may Daily Express tapos may Evening Express ano? Abante is fun to read. May pagkapilyo lang lalo na sa mga articles ng mga entertainment columnists. Sa Hulaan portion naman, grabe kung minsan ang mga blind items. Ang mga clues kung minsan obvious na obvious.
With that amount of money spending on the ticket,the audience who booed Gloria also,deserve a rain check.Gloria spoiled their goodtimes.
Buti nga sayo Gloria Dila Huwad,Akala mo sikat ka pa, wala ka nang KARAPATAN. Kakahiya na talaga garapal parin ang pagmumukha. Ano kaya ang ginawa niya sa malakanyang pagkagaling sa PICC? Ano kaya ang itsura ng tiyanak na umiiyak at nag lulumpisay sa sobrang inis sa sarile dahil sa kahihiyaan.Sana nakunan ng VIDEO para mapanood naman namin mga OFWs ang pangyayari kay GLORIA DILA HUWAD.
Naku tikbalang, baka naman nagbuburles ang Gloria Dila Huwad dahil sa inis, sabay lagok ng cognac, at tapos ay sumisigaw na pakanta sabay padyak ng mga paa. Baka tayo ang mahimatay pag nakita natin ang video na ganyan.
They should have a repeat of this booing plus throwing of rotten eggs (I would rather they throw rocks) at Gloria and her entourage once the campaign trail starts. Ang sarap sigurong makita kung papaano magre-react si Assperon, et al to save their queen! Guerra patani na!
Saan ka ngayon nakakita ng campaign rally na puno ng mga sundalong kanin! Pwe! Napre-predict ko nang ganito ang mangyayari sa campaign ni Pandak! Lalong undeclared martial law ang gagawin nito!
Meanwhile, I wonder how much Imelda was paid for advertising that the Philippines is rich, and the people are happier today and always during her interview with CNN. Bilib ka ri talaga sa vanity ng isang ito. Sayang ang beauty niya! Admittedly, mas maganda siya di hamak kay Eva or even Eva’s daughter na nagparetoke lang ng mukha kasi ang tanda ko pangit siya. Sabi nga ng mga nakakakila sa kaniya noon bata pa siya ay kamukha niya ang nanay niya! Ngayon kamukha na niya si Nora Aunor! Yuck!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
Hoy, mga fellow UPians, handa na ninyo ang mga bato ninyo when the campaign starts in March! Batuhin si Pandak at ang mga kandidato niya! Bukulan ng malaki lalo na iyong Binggot! Ang yabang pa kundi pa natin alam kung ano siya ni Mama-san!
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
The booeing on a head of state or shall we say to somebody who is in the running the affairs in a country even illegally seated, is the unkindest insult that may drive to a suicide the concerned person. Pero yan noong uso pa ang delicadeza sa mga hari at namumuno ng tribu.
Ngayon, dedma. As in, walang paki.
ystakei Says:

Yuko, you just gave me ideas on making money. I will tell my nephew to put up stalls in strategic places where he can sell rotten eggs/tomatoes, mud cakes, cow pies, etc.
Hallo folks!
Just arrived today from a R n R with hubby! No computer to read the latest of what’s happening around daily. So here I am, nag-oovertime. I love to hear this booeing thing with Glueria! Siguro nag-imagine na lang siya na “Hail Gloria” ang booing sa kanya! Abaw, lightning gid ya!!!
I also love to read Abante and Abante-Tonite aside from Tribune and Malaya. If I read Inquirer, it’s because of Conrado de Quiros!
Excellent idea Alitaptap! Heh!
Hi Elvira, how are things in Germany? Glad that you are back, in great shape and rarin’ to go…Let’s go boo that moral midget some more!
A well-respected president is welcomed to any room by constituents ON their feet.
A much-abhorred one like ours, without security aides, will be welcomed by constituents BY their feet.
The Il Divo booing incident was perpetrated by the educated elite. The other classes will surely follow suit. Ganyan ang Pinoy, pag ginawa ng isa at kwela, hihigitan ng iba.
Maganda yang subject ng reality show. Ang pinakamagaling mambastos kay Pandak ang siyang panalo. Ang premyo, free trip to US to visit Jocjoc, original copy of the autobiography of Garci, a jueteng franchise from Chavit, and the chance of a lifetime to actually hold the other end of the rope which noose is around the necks of Pandak and the Pig.
Paging Jerry Bruckheimer…
You think that the Philippines is the onl country with a vain and arrogant, etc. lunatic for a president? The US of A is presently agonizing likewise for having a mad man leading Americans to perdition!
Signs of the time? You bet!
Alitaptap,
Love you for being funny!
Malacanang big mouths are always in denial whenever their small boss got heckled, shouted at, bushwacked, tripped, bamboozled, pilloried and booed. At least there’s where they excel, deny and hide the truth.
This is Joeseg’s original, not copied from anybody –
Five reasons why GMA was late and booed:
1. It was heavy traffic from Malacanang to PICC. Should have done the concert at 12 midnight, the Smith way.
2. GMA was very strict when it comes to following the so-called Filipino time.
3. The clock at the concert venue at PICC was out order, still unchanged from the time of Imelda Marcos.
4. The concert goers were just too early not knowing the exact time the show will start.
5. It was not GMA who was actually at the concert but Nora Aunor.

Ellen,
Re “Pag pumunta yan sa squatter areas na walang security, baka gula-gulanit yan kapag lumabas. ”
Sana mag bibig anghel ka Ellen! Gloria deserves whatever bad thing befalls her.
Re:”Other than Malaya, Tribune, Abante, the other papers like Manila Standard, Inquirer, Phil. Star did not carry the above news of Arroyo’s booing at the concert.” by Mandirigma, Inquirer has a boxed item on this on page 2.
Thanks Ka Ellen. I might have missed that one at the Inquirer. Ano kaya ang Manila Bulletin?
Do you know what’s alarming at the recent booing of Arroyo at the concert? If the ones who booed her were the poor masses or from the grassroot level, then it’s understandable. Pero ang mga nanood ng concert kabilang sa Class A and B ng lipunan. Karamihan sa kanila ang may pinag-aralan at may alam sa batas. If they did this to Arroyo, then she’s really in deep trouble. Sinusuka na siya hindi lang ng mga mahihirap pati na ng mga maykaya sa buhay. Anong natitirang sector ang may gusto sa kanya? WALA.
meron pa, mandirigma. yung mga sipsip sector at yung mga sindikato na nakikinabang sa pekeng gobyerno ni arroyo. sa oras na mapatalsik natin si evil one, lahat ng mga ito ay dapat din maparusahan.
Oo nga pala ano. There are still two sectors for Arroyo: The corrupt sector and the cheating sector. Sa tutoo lang, hindi bagay si Arroyo mag-attend ng concert. Kahit anong concert. She likes like a yaya of some VIP’s child attending the concert. Kung hindi lang presidente iyan baka mapagkamalang tindera ng ticket sa labas ng PICC. O mas magandang halimbawa ay baka mapagkamalan siyang tindera ng sampagita sa kalye.
I just turned off my TV, I was disgusted coz the Indianapolis Colts, my favorite team in the National Football League is losing (again) to the mighty New England Patriots for the AFC Championship, in which the winner would go to Super Bowl XLI to be held in Miami, FL on February 04, 2007. But as soon as I read this entry….whala! Boom-tarat-tarat-boom-tarat-tarat, I am jumping with joy, happiness, and nevermind if the Colts loses today, because this news already made my day. Hooorah!
Thisk skinned gloria asked her bodyguards with a flabbergasted look…”bakit sila nag-boo-boo noh?”…bodyguard: “(ala-Garci) Maa’m, ahh…ahhh, hindi po nila nagustuhan ang show ng Il Divo, yun po”….gloria: “I see, well kahit ako sana boo-boo din, kaya lang noh, libre naman tiket natin.” Manhid talaga ang gloria….hehehe 😉
Ka Spartan, it also reminds me of those matronas recruited by Arroyo to cheer in Congress while the impeachment against her was going on. Mga classmates niya iyon sa Assumption. Arroyo’s bodyguard could have told her: Ma’am, they’re cheering you not booing.
warrior, that could be the case too, gloria’s bodyguards’ interpretation of “see no evil, hear no evil”.
Got this text:
Ang Pilipino talaga, ang sharp ng sense of humor.
hehehe @ Ma’m Ellen, well diyan na lang tayong mga noypi bumabawi sa lahat ng pasakit na nararamdaman natin dulot ng pighating gloria. Il di Boo… 😀
Il di Boo, hahahah! Sino kaya ang orig nito? Galing ah!
dapat dito sa pansamantalang permanenteng prangulo, binabatukan! bakit, parliamentary session ba ‘yun at dapat i-acknowledge ang presensiya niya? kung official function ‘yun, sa kanyang mga ginagawang kawalanghiyaan, dapat ba siyang igalang? tadyakan dapat! una ngusong subsob sa pusaling kauri niya.
buset!!!!
para sa iyo, ellen, pagdamutan mo ang nakayanan

—————————————————–
nag-aapoy nag-aalab, nagsusumigaw ang damdamin
nag-uumalpas ang silakbo ng kaloobang sinisikil
sa loob ng ilang taong pamamayani nitong sakim
tila walang hanggang pang-api, pang-aabuso’t panunupil
panlilinlang sa pagtitiwala’t kalayaang kinikitil.
datapwa’t sa bunton ng mga ulap ay may kislap na sumilay
naging ningas nitong alab ng pakikibakang namamahay
sa dibdib ang naiipong kinikimkim na kamalayan
ng pagkatantong pagkahulog sa patibong ng panlilinlang
si ellen ang siyang nagsilbing tagapagmulat tagaakay.
walang takot niyang panitik hindi nangiming isiwalat
kabulukang kaytagal nang itinatago nitong sukab
buong tapang na sinuong n’ya hindi alintanang sinusuwag
itong pader ng pang-aapi, pananakot ng mga duwag
na pilit na nagkakanlong sa kapangyarihan nilang huwad.
si ellen ang siyang nagsilbing matibay na naging bigkis
siya itong naging daan upang ipaglaban ang matuwid
ipagtanggol ang karapatang sa ati’y kaytagal nang inaalis
tubusin ang dangal nitong bansa’t ang kaayusan ay ibalik
magsamasama tayong lahat sa pamumuhay na tahimik!
sa pagdatal ng sandaling ating kamtin ang pagbabagong minimithi
huwag na nating hahayaang manumbalik ang tiwali
huwag nang isusuko ang prinsipyo’t pagtatangi
huwag na ring padadala sa mapanlinlang at kunwari
lalo’t higit ay huwag hayaang bansa’y muling mapalungi!
salamat, ellen, salamat, habang buhay naming tatanawin
katapangang ipinamalas mong walang hindi susuungin
inspirasyon kang lalaging huwarang aming tataglayin
moog kang isang lakas walang salang sasambahin
sa kasaysayan ay iuukit ang pangalan mong sakdal ningning!
meron akong nasagap na balita na ang lahat daw ng mga dumalo at nanood sa concert na ‘yun na nang-booooo sa mahal na prangulo (pwe!!!!) ay kakasuhan daw ni siraulo gagonggonzalez ng mutiny at rebellion against a sitting temporary permanent president watching a concert.
alitaptap, nagniningas na naman pala ang iyong dalang sulo! miss na kita, darling. ahaaaaay!! choz!
mrivera, kaibigan naming makata
kay tagal mong sa amin ay nawala
hinahanap-hanap namin ang iyong presensya
akala namin ika’y nakidnap na.

matulaing tula para sa ating lakambini

elvira, pasyal ka dun sa “si gloria na ang isyu”. masarap ang mga putahe dun. meron pang tour around da pinas na ginawa joeseg. kaya ‘yung pobreng joeseg, nagkasakit ng caucus. na-confine nga sa ospital ‘yung mama, pero nakalabas agad dahil naagapan sa gamot. payo ko nga inom siya ng katas ng kalamanse para lumabnaw ang caucus niya.
Magno, okay itong post mo, “meron akong nasagap na balita na ang lahat daw ng mga dumalo at nanood sa concert na ‘yun na nang-booooo sa mahal na prangulo (pwe!!!!) ay kakasuhan daw ni siraulo gagonggonzalez ng mutiny at rebellion against a sitting temporary permanent president watching a concert.”
Gloria’ base has shrunk over-night. Her base now is only the military generals. That’s all she’s got. This brings her closer to her end !
Gloria’ base has shrunk over-night. After the “Il di Boo” concert, doesn’t seem like the elite & middle class have any respect left for her. GLORIA’s base is only the military generals nalang. That’s all she’s got. This brings her closer to her end !
Chabeli – and the number of generals dog loyal to her is getting depleted!
Isabel,
Very nice! But pardon me, what is “humahabi”?
Magno,
That was a fabulous ode to Ellen! Congratulations.
I read it aloud – can’t say I did the Ode to Ellen justice but it was easier to grasp that way.
Nabitin lang ang comprehension over one word: What is “susuungin”.
Thanks.
anna, ikaw nga’y huwag kakalimot sa iyong daang pinanggalingan, hane?
pero alang alang sa iyo, batanggenyang mahinhin
mistulang ano’ng rupok, kristal na babasagin
tulad ng isang birheng aalagaa’t sasambahin
kung hindi talastas ang tapang n’yang kinikimkim
huwag na huwag magkamaling prinsipyo n’ya’y salungatin.
susuungin – haharapin, lulusubin, lalabanan.
humahabi – nagbabanghay, bumubuo (para ding nananahi)
Hahahah! “pero alang alang sa iyo, batanggenyang mahinhin” Baka mabilataukan iyong mga taga Bagong Silang pag nabasa yan.
Hahahahah!
Thanks, Magno.
Kabayang Spartan, “See no evil, hear no evil” ba? Bulag at bingi din pala itong PSG bodyguard. Nasa tabi lang niya iyong evil noong gabi hindi pa niya nakita at narinig.
Kung totoo ung sinabi ni Magno nakupo worse than Martial Law na ang magaganap dahil malinaw na paglapastangan yan sa civil liberties na garantisado ng Saligang Batas na binabalewala ng Pamilya Ukinana! Walang pinag-iba sa katarantaduhang ginawa ni Mike Baboy nung kasuhan nya ng libelo sina Madam Ellen at 44 pang mamamamahayag at ang tangkang pag-aresto sa ilan sa kanila!
GLORIA, UKITNAM!!!
Am enjoying this Il de Boo concert ni Agurang Gloria! Talagang wala ng respeto ang mga tao sa kanya, mga PSG at Generals na lang! Aba’y at the height na ng kakapalan Muks ito! TAPOS; Here comes pa my favorite Big Mouth Ilonggo Gonzalez at her rescue, threatening to sue ng rebellion etc those who booed her majesty! Ini si Gonzalez, nag-papaakyat lang ng BP ko! “Mal-am kag ulianon don pay, wala pagkipot ang sungad niya!” Nami gid dapalan !”
Hi, Anna! Grüsse von Deutschland!
We’re ok despite that mini-storm last Thursday! Folks here aren’t feeling good with the implementation of 19% VAT! Everything is skyrocketing, but not our salaries! Some businessmen are wise because they didn’t raise the prices in some commodities instead they decrease the sizes..biglang lumiit kamo ang mga items!
On the political front, Bayern will have a new Minister President from Nuernberg. The outgoing one, Stoiber, has been a very good and progressive one, but some partymates insisted he’s too old and should retire and give chance to a younger one. This ruling party (CSU) where Stoiber belongs, had a caucus party last week to decide what they should do with the old Minister but Stoiber resigned before this caucus was over. Of course, majority of the people were dismayed because through his leadership, Bayern has been always the strongest, the riches, shall we say, the most progressive of all the states here in Germany. Now, they aren’t sure of the incoming Minister. They say, he is not really as good as the outgoing one. But the thing is…THERE WAS NO WAR::NO TROUBLE AT ALL ::WITH THIS CHANGE OF LEADERSHIP! AND MAY I ADD, BECAUSE EVERYTHING WAS DONE PEACEFULLY AND LEGALLY!!!
Hi Elvira,
Good to know that the mini-storm didn’t cause much havoc. TV here was plastered with news about trains rooted on the spot everywhere in Germany.
I called my Sis who’s living outside Munich and she said, it was fine over her end.
Anyway, alam mo naman things are done differently in Europe. Those in Europe who keep complaining about political corruption don’t know that they’ve been born – if only they would look in the direction of Pinas, they will consider themselves the LUCKIEST people in the world! Corruption? Nah, they can’t begin to understand what the word means compared to Pinas.
Btw, I used to be a fan of the Bayern club, heheh, but have switched to ARSENAL! Hah coz my son prefers Arsenal now. Cheers!
Hindi lang pala boeing 747 and heckling and kalampaging of some high heeled and branded shoes by the a & b concert goers ang nangyari sa Il Divo concert a.k.a. Il Boo-boo concierto! Mayroon pang ibang incident mga kabayan, igan, cabalen, kaibahan, tsokaran, mga tsong mga tsang, mga kafatid, pards, ka-blog, ka-sinulid, ka-isyu, etc.
Let’s take it from Lito Banayo when he wrote:
Elvira, joke lang yun ni Magno R.
May bagong dapat i-boo!
Itong bagong panukala to increase the salaries of gov’t employees is another boo-booeing act of GMA. Maganda kong babasahin lang pero it is supposed to take effect sa July pa, after election, kung maipasa sa Congress. It means, another panlilinlang para maka-akit ng boto.
Please read the portion of the news.
The Department of Budget and Management on Monday submitted a bill to Congress seeking a 10% hike in the base pay of government workers and urged its immediate approval.
Malacañang said the bill represents the second installment of three-part series of government pay increases that started last year. An additional P1,200 increase in the monthly allowance of policemen and soldiers is also included in the proposal. Budget Secretary Rolando Andaya Jr. said the proposed wage hike, if approved by Congress, would take effect in July.
It is expected to cost the government P10.3 billion.
joeseg, so it mean na-isnab din ng Il Divo ang kapangitan ni gloria? Que barbaridad! Bwahahahaha! On the other hand, she’s to blame to what happened to her. What the heck is she doing, trying to make pa-kyut to the madlang people showing she’s in to the uso na music…Bwahahahaha! Iyan napala mong kapal muks na gloria ka. Just look at her in her own TV show duon sa PTV4, kapag ka-miting niya iyong mga aso niya, discussing topics such as their accomplishments daw, etc. etc. na pulos binabasa sa teleprompter, or should I say hi-tech idiot board.
Philippine International Convention Center
site of the inaugural session of Batasang Bayan during Martial Law years.
Batasang Bayan(1976-1978) was a 128 member quasi-legislative body created pursuant to the PD 955 issued on September 10,1976.
It was convened in compliance with the popular mandate as expressed in the referendum of July 27,1973.
In its inaugural session at the Philippine International Convention Center along Roxas Boulevard, Manila, President Marcos hailed it as “a celebration of Filipino’s pride and identity” and declared it as a landmark in the history of the Filipino people.

(wala na, nahubaran na ako nang husto. pati pangalan ko, nakalathala na. okey lang, prinsipyo lang naman ang labanan.)
haaaay! naku, mga kapatid. kaya ganyan ang ginagawa ko, para naman medyo mag-cool down ang boiling to the max na panggigigil ng bawat isa sa atin. nahawa kasi ako kay segjoe. pero ang malaking kaibahan, ‘yung karahong ‘yun masyadong pa-hambel (sori sa mga ilokano, humble, he he heh) at pa-low profile (paluin na katang joeseg ka, ey) ang kumag.
samantalang ako’y amag la’ang ang pwedeng pagkumparahan walang anumang maaaring maipagmalaki sa inyong lahat
kundi ang aking abang katauhan
sapagkat ako’y isang dukhang walang anumang yaman
kundi ang suot kong gulanit na damit sa katawan.
aral pa’y wala dahil sa pagtambay
laman ng lansanga’t saan mang lamayan
duon ko hinahasa’t pinagiging makinang
tanging talino kong iniingat ingatan
paghabi ng tulang aking pinagkukunan
ng bukal ng lakas kahit pansamantala la’ang.
(bow)
Hello Magno, kapatid sa blog!
Ako’y nagbibigay- galang
Paghahabi-habi ng mga kuru-kuro’y
Aking tunay na hinahangaan!
Sa iyong pagba-bow, ito’y aking
Naisip lang naman…Di kaya’t
Isang araw, ika’y lalapitan
Aalukin ng magandang puwesto’t
Malaking KAYAMANAN…gawain mo’y
Maghabi ng tula, “Magagandang
Ginawa” ng Lapastangan sa Malakanyang!
Ang tanong ko sa ‘yo’y ire:
Tatanggapin mo ba Mahal na Kabayan?
eto ang kompirmasyon kung sinigawan ng boooooo si gloria – dahil pinakakapkapan ang lahat ng taong kanyang dinatnan sa konsert at ang sanrekwang PSG’ng kasama ay pumalibot sa kanya habang nanonood, eh ‘nadun pa sila sa unahan kaya wala nang makita ang mga tao kundi ang likuran ng mga sekyu ng bruha!
Kabayang Elvira, ano bagang tanong iyan,
‘yan ba’y pagsubok o isang panlalalang?
Ako ba naming ire’y wala ng kahihiyan
Kung aking tatanggapin kahit kayamanan
Na alam kong galling sa kaban ng bayan?
Kung aking ninais ako’y guminhawa
Kahit sa illegal na paraa’y dapat noon pa
Kaydaling pasukan paghanap ng pera
Nung ako’y nasa serbisyong ako’y protektado pa
Hindi ko ginawa dahil hindi ko kaya.
Ang usapan ngayon ay prinsipyo’t katwiran
Kahit na ito’y di maaaring ipalaman sa tiyan
Hindi man maging ito’y pang-agdong buhay
O kahit sa gutom dilat ang matang mamamatay
Mamatamisin ko pa kaysa pakasangkapan.
Kaya kong banatin ang aking katawa’t buto
Upang mabuhay ng marangal ng walang tinatapakang tao
Kaya kong mabuhay at magbata nang todo
Libo mang kahirapang gayan nang naranasan ko
Ngayon pa ba ako magpapakaloko?
Diyan ako saludo sa ‘yo
Kabayang Magno!
Sana’y marami pa kayong
Serbisyo sa bayan buung-buo!
Naku, ang hirap maging Makata, Magno!
Sinubukan ko, tiyak siyam-siyam
Aabutin ko, kaya tigilan ko na nga ito
Hayaan na kitang ipagpatuloy
At ikaw naman ang talagang
May Talino!
Magluluto lang ako at
Ika’y babalikan ko!
aling elvira, huwag ka nang magsimpi
nauunawaan kita’t uunawaing lagi
bagama’t ang tanong mong walang pasubali
loob ko’y di sasama lalong hinding hindi
may kimkimin ako sa ‘yo’y hindi maaari!
gaya nang nasabi ko kung aking ginusto
ang magpayaman ay noon pa man sa serbisyo
‘daming lumalapit, ‘daming nambubuyo
may pagkakataong ngang ako’y natutukso
ngunit iniisip ko, dangal ko’y paano?
maaari kong makamtan, yaong yamang pangarap
ng kahit sinong taong nagsasawa na sa hirap
maaari kong ibigay ang ginhawa sa aking mga anak
ngunit paano naman kung pangala’y mawasak
dahil lang sa pagkasilaw sa kinang ng pilak?
ako kaya ngayo’y inyong makakasama?
o akong ito’y may mukhang ihaharap pa
sa sino mang taong sa aki’y nakakakilala
sa mga nakababatid sa lahat kong sala
kung akin mang ginusto, yaman ngayo’y wala na!
(kaya nga, ere, nagtitiis sa disyerto, subalit kaya kong humarap nang tuwid sa kahit sino mang tao, wala man akong maipagmamalaking anuman kundi ang pangalan at tanging kayamanan ng kawawang koboy.)
penge’ng ulam!
the kapal muks gloria was boooooed twice by the audience during that concert – not quite enough since she has been making kapalpakan not once, not twice, but so many times and most of them in the middle of the night!
Jove Francisco, in his blog, is right when he says that being booed is nothing compared to what this bogus president can expect come May.
When the returns are read, each vote against her personal slate is a BOO against her!
Anna de brux,
Let’s do our share & show GLORIA what BOO means in this upcoming elections !
Mabuhay ang BOO Brigade !
The Palace broke its silence on the matter yesterday with Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita claiming they have a witness to prove that Mrs. Arroyo was never embarrassed by the concert crowd.
The witness is a member of Ermita’s own family who was able to watch the concert.
Now, allow me to say “What a stupid reason”. What an idiot! Witness ni Ermita sarili niyang kapamilya.
Magno,
“(kaya nga, ere, nagtitiis sa disyerto, subalit kaya kong humarap nang tuwid sa kahit sino mang tao, wala man akong maipagmamalaking anuman kundi ang pangalan at tanging kayamanan ng kawawang koboy.)”
My heartfelt congratulations!
anna, totoo naman. kahit lupa sa paso, wala ako.
and i will not divulge here where my family is, mahirap na. hindi baleng kilala na nila kung sino at ano ako (dati).
And we are sooo proud of you, Mrivera! Hephep hurray!!!
Alam nyo mga igan, mabuti at dapat ding mangyari sa kanya na binobo ng mga tao. Kung ako lang ang nandon di lang pangangantyaw ang abot nya sa akin kahit makulong ako pag me chance lang duduraan ko talaga siya. Sobrang inis ko talaga sa pandak at bansot na yan. Kahapon kung nabassa nyo sa Abante sabi pa ni Malaswa(si Ermita ano pa di ba sa ermita maraming mga club doon) na di raw kinantyawan si bansot kundi pinapalakpakan pa. Ewan ko anong utak meron sila. Mayayaman na nga ang nandon pero sinusuka na si bansot paano na kaya ung ultimong mamamayan?
