Some “survivors” of what media calls the Nov. 29, 2007 “Manila Peninsula siege” got together with Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV (no, not at the Manila Pen).
Yesterday’s reunion had an added significance in the sense that Trillanes, Brig. Gen. (ret.) Danny Lim and other members of the Magdalo, who dared take on Gloria Arroyo at the height of her power, are now free. Trillanes is serving his electoral mandate in the Senate and Lim is deputy commissioner of the Bureau of Customs.
And Arroyo, their jailer?
It is now being debated whether she should be granted her request for a house arrest or be confined at a government facility. She has been charged with electoral sabotage in the 2007 election, a crime punishable by a life sentence and bail is not recommended.
Definitely, the detention facility being prepared by the Aquino government for Gloria Arroyo is luxury compared to the prison condition that Trillanes and the Magdalo officers endured during their seven years (starting July 27, 2003 in connection with the Oakwood mutiny) of incarceration.
But it underscores what we call “gulong ng palad.”
Reflecting on what happened four years ago, Trillanes admitted there were tactical lapses which in some ways led to political fallouts.
But the fatalist that he is makes him think that what happened in Manila Pen happened “for a higher reason that is still unfolding.”
Trillanes said there are bigger challenges facing the country and he said, “Hopefully the Manila Pen experience strengthened us to face these.”

Talking about the detention of gloria, I was (not) surprised to hear from miriam and gringo about the house arrest of gloria.
Sabi nila, give dignity to her as a former president(???). e nung panahon ba bi erap, did they give dignity to erap. He was arrested by how many hundreds of police sent to his house.
Give dignity daw kay gloria, e pano naman yung mga niyurakan ang mga pagkatao nung panahon nung panunungkulan ni gloria bilang president(???)
Give dignity daw kay gloria, just like those former leaders of other countries such as Aung San Suu Kyi, etc… DUH!!!! please don’t compare gloria to Suu kyi, etc., naman….maybe we should compare gloria to what happened to hosni mubarak. He who was brought to the court in a hospital bed, bakit hindi ikumpara ni miriam at gringo si gloria sa mga katulad ni evita peron..
Give dignity daw kay gloria… how about her stolen presidency, does it still matter with the 2 of you, how about the force removal from office of the incumbent president in 2001? everybody knows that gloria and her brother-hoodlums really planned his removal from office earlier, does it still matter with the 2 of you?
Huwag na lang kayo mag salita.
And finally, si kiko “matsing/mr. noted” pangilinan, hannga’t hindi mo sinasabi ang dahilang ng “noted” mo nung panahon ng bilangan ng boto ng 2004, huwag ka ng sumali sa mga nananawagan ng mai-idetine si gloria sa tamang kulungan. You, “mr. noted”, has a lot of explaining to do, we are not yet done with you, isama ka rin dapat sa imbestigasyon.

Super hirap ang pinagdaanan nila Trillianes kaya the Magdalos should stick together and make their cause ever burning!
teka nga, bakit kailangan pang bigyan ng espesyal na kulungan ang babaeng ‘yan at palaging itinuturing na “dating presidente”?
kailan ba naging presidente ng pilipinas ‘yan?
ginago na nga niya ang buong sambayanan, huwag namang gawing tanga ng kasalukuyang administrasyon. kung ano ang trato sa ordinaryong kriminal ay ganu’n din dapat ang gawin sa mang-aagaw at mandarayang mangnanakaw na sinungaling na babaeng ‘yan!
Everything happens for a reason. We should be always be aware of the lessons they bring to make them worthwhile making as grow and mature in outlooks.

Alam n’yo, meron akong suhestiyon para mapatunayan kung totoo ngang mahinang mahina na ‘yang si goyang, eh.
Padalhan natin ng balsamador at ataul galing Funeraria Paz. Tingnan natin kung hindi mabilis pa sa alas kuwatro ‘yan sa pagbangon!
Wala na talaga katinuan ang mga sipsip na nakapaligid sa kanya.
Haaay!!!! Nagagawa nga naman ng pinambabayad na salaping ninakaw.
Palibhasa ay hindi (nila) pinaghirapan kaya kahit milyon ang gastos sa ilang araw na pamamalagi sa ospital ay hindi nila pinanghihinayangan makaiwas lamang sa pagharap sa mga kasong inihain laban sa kanya.
Arroyo remains ‘at peace’ despite legal battles

ang kapalaran nga naman ng tao. Pumanaw na pala.
Kahit naging napakasama niyang tao (sori, kahit kailan hindi ko siya matatanggap na naging presidente), ipagdadasal kong sumalangit nawa ang kanyang kaluluwa.
naparami ‘ata kain ko ng pulutan habang umiinom ng sadiki (local wine) kagabi ang mga kasama ko.
ipagpaumanhin ninyo kungmedyo napasama ang basa ko sa balitang ‘yan.
mali din ang pagkakasuot ko ng salamin. sa halip na sa mata ay sa bataok ko nailagay.
ay… em…. sori……
nakupo! naloko na!
batok ‘yun, ha?
baka isipin n’yo ‘yung mata ko nasa batok na.
Namumula raw ang lining ng malaking bituka ni Gloria, sabi ni Julieta. Kainin ba naman e puro yaman ng bayan, mamumula at mamamaga talaga ang colon nya!
Wala raw katotohanan na gagawa ng pelikula si Mother Lily na may pamagat na: Patayin sa Sindak si Pandak!
