Ipinagyayabang ni Gloria Arroyo at ng kanyang political adviser na si Gabriel Claudio na mananalo raw ang kanilang mga kandidato kasama na doon ang mga kandidato sa pagka-senador kahit na kulelat ang karamihan sa kanila sa surveys dahil raw sa kanilang makinarya.
Sabi pa ni Arroyo, naamoy na raw niya ang kanilang panalo.
Bakit handa na ba ang operasyon ni Comelec Chairman Benjamin Abalos para gawin ang ginawa ni Virgilio Garcillano noong 2004?

Supalpal ang military ni Gloria Arroyo sa pagpalaya ng Supreme Court kay Bayan Muna partylist Representative Satur Ocampo noong Martes.
Nagre-reklamo tuloy si Justice Secretary Raul Gonzalez na may special treatment raw si Satur.
Hindi kaya isipin ni Gonzales na ang ginawa ng Supreme Court ay pagwawasto lang ng malaking kasalanan na ginawa nila kay Ocampo at iyon ay ang pagtapak ng walang pakundangan ng kanyang karapatang pantao.
It was most fitting that Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim’s petition before the Supreme Court, through his lawyer Vicente Verdadero, to stop the special general court martial convened to try him, Maj. Gen. Renato Miranda and 26 other marine and army officers for the alleged coup plot in February 2006, started with the statement:
“The fundamental rights guaranteed in the Constitution apply to all persons, including those subject to military law. It would indeed be paradoxical if military men who are called upon in times of the gravest national crises to lay down their lives in defense of peace and freedom would be the very people to be singled out for denial of the fundamental rights for which they risk their lives.”
Miranda, Lim, Col. Armando Bañez, Maj. Jose Leomar Doctolero, and Capt. William Upano, who are now detained in Camp Capinpin in Tanay, Rizal, also asked the High Court for their release. The officers have been accused of either one or two or all of the following violations of the Articles of War: mutiny, disrespect towards the president, willfully disobeying order, and conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline.
Ang Semana Santa ay mahalagang linggo para sa mga kristiyano dahil yan ang panahon na ginugunita natin ang sakripisyo ni HesuKristo para sa sanlibutan.
Nagsimula ang Semana Santa noong Linggo, Palm Sunday, kung saan ginunita natin ang pagpasok ni Hesu Kristo sa Jerusalem at ito ay matatapost sa Easter Sunday o Linggo ng Pagkabuhay.
Walang pasok ang araw ng Huwebes at Biyernes (April 5 at 6). Dahil tumama ang Araw ng Kagitingan sa April 9, Lunes, dire-diretso na rin ang holidays hanggang April 9. Marami sa mga ustong magbakasyon ay ngayon pa lamang umaalis at babalik sa Lunes. Maganda mag-plano ng bakasyon dahil mahaba, sulit ang gastos.
Wives, children and gandchildren of the detained Marines and Scout Rangers were at the Supreme Court yesterday to give moral support to each other when Atty Rolando Cipriano, lawyer for Maj. Gen. Renato Miranda; Atty. Vicente Verdadero, lawyer for Brig. Gen. Danny Lim, Atty. Vicente Caoile, lawyer for Col. Armando Bañez; and Atty. Dante Xenon Atienza, lawyer for Maj. Jose Leomar Doctolero and Capt. Wiliam Upano, filed the petition for certiorari, prohibition and habeas corpus in connection with the detention and court martial of the 28 military officers.
They, too, are victims of the injustice being perperated on their husbands, fathers, and grandfathers.
