Justice Secretary Leila de Lima said she is still “vetting” the names of people in the list given to her by pork barrel queen Janet Napoles.
“You just have to trust me that I’m not gonna do that na isa-sanitize ko yung list. Pangako ko po yan sa taumbayan na hindi ko yan gagawin na isa-sanitize. Pangako ko rin sa taumbayan na gagawin ko yung mandato in a very responsible and prudent manner . Kaya kailangan munang magkaroon ng vetting,” De Lima was quoted to have said.
Malacañang supports De Lima’s non-disclosure of the Napoles list while she is still “vetting” the names in it.
Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr., head of the Presidential Communications Operations Office, said:”It will be irresponsible if the names are made public without being vetted. That is the essence of the appeal of Secretary de Lima, for her to be given time to vet the list.
Online Free Dictionary defines the verb “vet” as : “to investigate (someone) thoroughly to see if they should be approved or accepted for a job; to check (something) carefully to make sure it is acceptable.”
Okay. If her vetting revealed that some names in the list are not acceptable, what is she going to do? Will she remove the names from the list?
What’s her authority to tamper with Napoles’s list? If Napoles is lying with her list, expose her as a liar but De Lima should not tamper with it. Or else that list would no longer be that of the notorious pork barrel queen. It would then become a Napoles-De Lima list.
De Lima said the list containing the names of people who were beneficiaries of the Filipino people’s money Napoles stole by diverting some P10 billion for Priority Development Assistance Project to her and her cohorts’ pockets, was given to her personally by the pork barrel queen when she visited the latter at the Ospital ng Makati.
There’s another Napoles list and it’s with former senator now Rehabilitation Czar Panfilo “Ping” Lacson. Here:
Lacson said his list came from someone close to Jaime Napoles, a former Marines and husband of Janet.
Since the two lists (De Lima’s and Lacson’s) supposedly were prepared by one person – Janet Napoles, they should be similar.
But they are not, according to no less than the President of the Philippines, Benigno Aquino III.
Speaking to media in Burma, where he was attending the 24th ASEAN summit, Aquino said, “I think I have seen, iyong physically seen, I have seen two and they don’t agree with each other exactly…They supposed to have come from Mrs. Napoles.”
Aquino revealed something new in that Burma interview: he got the Napoles list before Lacson and De Lima got theirs. This belies earlier stories that when De Lima gave Aquino the list after she got it from Napoles, the President was shocked and deeply bothered.
Aquino said in Burma: “Iyong first one, I think, was transmitted to me, which I in turn gave to Secretary de Lima. At that point in time, she didn’t want to talk to Secretary de Lima. The second list naman with Secretary de Lima was when she asked to meet with Secretary de Lima when she had a change of heart.”
“Now, iyong list with Secretary Lacson, noong we were discussing Yolanda, so that was just a passing topic. Just parang give me a little highlights; and the highlight itself was not consistent already with the other two.”
Aquino said he heard that there’s a third Napoles list. Sandra Cam, president of the Whistleblowers Association,also has a Napoles list. She said it was given to her by a reliable source.
The common names in the three lists are that of the three senators charged by the Ombudsman with plunder: Juan Ponce-Enrile, Jinggoy Estrada, Bong Revilla.
Aquino admitted some of his allies are in the list.
“Merong alleged, maraming hindi. Pero alam ninyo kasi parang kapag sinabi kong may discrepancy, iyong number nagfa-fluctuate e. Iyong unang list na ipinadala sa akin X numbers sabihin natin, ano. Iyong next list na nakita ko, minus three. Tapos iyong binabanggit sa akin parang plus four. O di ba, parang, hindi merong ganun phrase: ‘Ano ba talaga ate?’ Hindi ba? Parang ganun,” the President said.
Ano nga ba talaga, Ate.
“…he got the Napoles list before Lacson and De Lima got theirs. This belies earlier stories that when De Lima gave Aquino the list after she got it from Napoles, the President was shocked and deeply bothered.”
Ala e, naligaw sa script si Pnoy! 😀
Pnoy and Sandra Cam should submit their respective Napolist to the Senate also and compare the names with those of the list given to Lacson and de Lima.
And then, kaladkarin si Janet sa Senado kung ayaw umapir at ipa-confirm Who’s Who.
Sino ba sa kanila talaga, Ate?
spam, spam, spam. de lima ought not to dignify the list. it’s so disorganized like the chain letters that were circulating in the past decades. the names of people were not arranged in alphabetical order. names could have been arranged in order of the amounts received, say from the biggest to the lowest amount, but were not. de lima should not have been so eager and rushed rush to the hospital. the list would still be there and not self destruct after napoles’ operation. by then, de lima would have regained clarity of vision. and know a scam when she sees one.
have I been de lima, I would have put my foot down and said to napoles, I’ll give you 3 months. if you cannot come up with satisfactory evidence to back up your claim, I will basura your claim, get it? you can eat your list then.
if napoles is stressed, serves her right for creating one scam after another. her latest scam is proving to be all encompassing.
Si Abad daw ang mastermind. Kaya pala siya ngayon ang may hawak ng pera. Naku lagot si Pinoy niyan. After he leaves his office baka lahat ng perang lumabas eh may bogus na pirma. Di ba yan ang modus operandi ng mga ito. Hindi daw nila pirma yung mga nasa Saro. Ang dami palang “ghost” senatongs and representa-thieves.
It does not shock me anymore that all of these elected officials have to steal money to run for an office. I saw this happening when I assisted in the May 2010 elections. Kahit na yung mga Mayor eh nagaantay ng pera para mailagay sa mga sobre na ibibigay sa mga boboto. Kung wala kang ibibigay na pera para mailagay sa sobre nila, di ka iboboto. Kasalanan din ng mag botante yan. They expect these candidates to pay first before the voters elect them. Yan tuloy, simper kailangang makuha ng mga ito yung mga perang ipinamigay nila na suhol sa election. The people should no longer wonder why all these elected officials are THIEVES! Where else will a candidate get the money to pay the voters? Siempre may RETURN ON INVESTMENT yan! For as long as politics is SUPER CORRUPT, hindi titigil ang nakawan. Mapa-PCSO yan, PDAP,DAP, Malampaya at kung ano pa na pwedeng pagkukuhanan ng pera, the THIEVING candidates will always find a way to milk a CORRUPT system!!!
This is Napoleses( and those behind her) way of making another scam. Imagine if all those implicated will pay her ( and her handlers) money yet AGAIN to get their names off the list? She (and her partners in crime) will be rolling in DOUGH once this administration ends and BINAY becomes the president! Kaya si Enrile tatawa tawa lang coz all these thieves have to do would be to stall the proceedings. One strategy is to CONFUSE everyone with these conflicting lists. Napoles (and her partners in crime) will be laughing all the way to the bank!!!!
Napoleses’ credibility as far as I am concerned is ZERO! Why even talk to her? Why won’t the Ombudsman with the COA with the aid of the whistleblowers just run after these thieves! Napoles should rot in jail together with her handlers.
Delima fell into Napoles’ trap & gambit. Napoles’ allies are using Sun Tzu’s strategy in this pork scam issue by creating confusion in the enemy by a show of indifference to their position of strength.
“If Napoles is lying with her list, expose her as a liar but De Lima should not tamper with it. Or else that list would no longer be that of the notorious pork barrel queen. It would then become a Napoles-De Lima list.”
Tampering would mean taking out or adding some names not on Napoles’ list. We would only know if De Lima tampered with the list if Napoles shows a copy of her list that she gave to De Lima, right? So it seems Napoles now is manipulating the whole show, isn’t it?
I should say that De Lima is on the right track. Vet the list and reveal to the public the result of her investigation in due time. Huwag po tayong sobrang atat. Pabor kay Napoles at sa mga katsokaran nyan sina Tanda, Pogi at Sexy ang magkagulo-gulo ang imbestigasyon. ‘Yan ang kanilang game plan kaya nga lumabas itong si Lacson at S.Cam na may kanya kanya ding listahan.
Si Lolit Solis meron din list signed pa by Anabel Rama. Ang list naman ni Sandra Cam pinirmahan na ni Arch. Oscar Cruz at ganun din naman yun list ni Arch Oscar Cruz ay pinirmahan ni Sandra.
Hintayin na lang kasi yun afiidavit na pirmado ni Napoles at ang mga dokumento na magpapatunay sa sinasabi niya.
Iyon ‘yun, Ate.
(Sound of reminiscence playing in the background: music from the olden days…)
Even Marcos had his list. Thanks to Johnny…most likely.
[Note: It is purely coincidental that, like baycas, Marcos had a penchant to listen to his erudite barber…not only great in hair cutting but likewise a politically astute citizen.]
Mang Gani, who is a colleague of Mang Bernie, my barber, surely wished that those listed in the NAPO-LUY List will have the same fate as those listed in the ENRIL-MACOY List!
Meanwhile, Mang Tony, the third of the three ‘20/20‘ perceptive barbers, wondered out loud in the vernacular during another “kuwentong barbero” session, “Where’s Reynaldo*?” (A la “Where’s Waldo?” in his tone)
Mang Bernie quickly added,

ganyan na ba kabobo ang tingin nila sa taumbayan at sobrang pinapahaba nila ang “buhay” ng iskandalong ito?
magagawa ba nilang tuklasin ang totoong katotohanan? sa ganyang merong kaalyado ni noynoy na kasama sa listahan?
bakit hindi nila isinapubliko matapos mapasakamay ni de lima ang sinasabing listahan? nililinis?
pinapatunayan lamang nila na sa panahong ito ay walang maaaring asahang katapatan ang taumbayan mula sa sinuman sa gobyerno. mapa miyembro ng gabinete o yaong mga pulitiko dahil sila ‘yung laging magkaagapay sa kawalang kahihiyan at KAKAPALAN ng MUKHA lalo’t kuwarta ang pinag-uusapan!
bawat isa sa kanila pinipilit pagmukhaing disente ang sarili pero saan ka’t nagdudumilat ang mga mata kapag merong naaamoy na pera!
kapag magkaalyado, asahang takipan ng baho ng bawat isa at kung minsan nga yaong mga hindi kapartido ay nananahimik upang hindi sumingaw ang nakakasulasok ng kabulukang itinatago.
sa 2016, asahan nating SILA SILA pa rin ang magkakalaban sa halalan!
The list and the Pre Trial buZz are just Scandal on top of a scandal. there should not be a senate inquiry since the criminal Probe is still Ongoing. Since evidence in Inquiry inAid of legislation Can not be used in any other Proceedings hence it just weakened the State’s Case against the defendants.. Never that a very very Serious Criminal probe is being conducted in the Media and in the Legislature…This is a Pathetic really pathetic state of judicial process.
Delilah is still vetting.
A vet is an animal doctor. I hope she is not doctoring the list of pigs.
Hah,hah,hah…Ikaw talaga Sax, kenkoy ka!
Too many Napoles list..it’s obvious that someone or some group is sabotaging the whole PDAF scam issue. Napoles has no other choice but to share what she knew. Now that she has done it it only show the truth that there are many members of congress are in for the take! Nakakalungkot after all these revelations nothing concrete is being done to address it. How long does it really take to prepare the case against this people years? decades? Gusto ninyo ba talaga? Meron pa parliamentary courtesy sa mga lapastangan miyembro ng kongresso. Imagine immunity sa mga BFF nilang operator sila naman pala ang punot dulo! Napoles is just a means to steal use by many in congress. She’s in big trouble and a fall guy as well..Congress should be abolish! there nothing good there to save!
If the people let this issue to continue as the way its being handled now, don’t expect our lives to change for the better! Expect for the worst. Add the many future Yolanda, rebellion ng NPA, etc. etc., never ending rise in cost of living, and more PDAF in a different form! We work hard and pay our due in taxes and in everything our government collects…Damn this government… Kasumpa sumpa!
The Napolist is just a list. It seems there are several such lists. Assuming all these lists emanated from Napoles, there is more reason for the public and the government to dismiss these lists as nothing but an elaborate attempt at muddling the still ongoing investigation of the Ombudsman. At halatang halata na nga natin ‘yan dahil nga sa napupunta na ang usapan at chismisan kung sino-sino ang nasa listahan imbes na kung kelan ba iaaakyat sa Sandiganbayan ang mga kaso laban sa first batch of accused led by Tanda, Sexy and Pogi. Why bother with these lists prepared by a kleptocratic pig?
Itong si Sen. Lacson dapat ang atupagin niya ang mga nabiktima ng bagyong Yolanda. Napakaraming biktima ng bagyo ang pinagkaperahan lang. Ilang araw pagkatapos ng bagyo may pumunta sa bawat bahay. Para raw sa calamity fund dahil kita talaga na maraming bahay ang nawalan ng bubong. Kagaguhan ang nangyari dahil pag lipas ilang buwan nag survery uli na ang mga may bubong na ay hindi na kasali sa bibigyan. Ano hihintayin pa ba na mamigay ng yero para may ipang ayos. Kahit nalista na marami pa rin ang hindi nabigyan.
sabi ng ating pinakamamahal na pangulo ay wala daw munang sibakan sa mga miyembro ng gabinete na sangkot (o kasama sa listahan) sa PDAF scandal. ebidensiya muna daw ang dapat.
HINDI ba pwede ang pagbakasyunin muna ang katulad nina abad at alcala?
ganyan ba ang tuwid na daan? ‘yung baluktot ay ipinagpipilitang walang liko kundi diretso sa pupuntahan?
ano, duleng?
#12. Sakto! Kaya dapat ideretso na sa ordinaryong presuhan si Janet at ng magsabi ng totoo kapag nayanig sa hirap.
Sa dami ng listahan na ikinalat niya, gulo talaga.
Alin kaya sa dalawang listahan ang tunay? Tanong ay kung tunay ba iyan?
Baka naman galing lang dito sa Recto ang mga listahan nila. Mga peke at pinapagulo lang nila ang tunay na dahilan. Sa dami ng pangalan sa listahan ni Ms. Ping ay matagal na pag iimbistiga iyan at lalong tatagal at makakalimutan na natin.
Ano ang motibo rin ni Ping kung bakit ngayon lang niya nilabas ang listahan.
Labas nito ay ginagago lang nila tayo.. Pina pa ikot ikot at wala naman mangyayari sa kaso pag tagal.
Katulad ni Pandak na “ABSUWELTO” na sa kaso.

De Lima given more time to submit Napoles affidavit
—
Pareho daw listahan ni Janet at Lacson pero may handwritten na dagdag si Napoles.
Goyang famously said “ang dagdag, ang dagdag”. Now Delilah says bawasan bawasan.
My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why Delilah.
Bakit pinatagal? L na L na ang taumbayan (litong lito). Mayroon kay Ping. May kay Delilah. Ang Penoy mayroon din daw. At gayon din si Sandra.
Kung ilabas ni Guingona ang kanyang subpoenas, he can make Sandra Cam – come to the Senate.
Looking at the list, the ones heading the agencies got the biggest loot! Ang DAYA ni Andaya! Mas maraki papa any ninakaw niya mesa sa tatlong senatongs (Enrile, Revilla and Estrada). Kaya pala nagrereklamo palagi si Estrada. Nasilip niya na max malaki and ninakaw ng mga kaalyado ni Pinoy. Grabe!!!!!
