A presidential aspirant, two military rebels elected senators and a jailed Army general hoping to follow suit: Could this foreshadow what is to come in 2010?
Known presidential hopeful Senator Manuel Villar, Senators Gregorio Honasan and Antonio Trillanes IV, and jailed Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim were seen in a rare gathering on Saturday, when they attended the wedding of Trillanes’ brother Jay.

Nuong isang linggo, nag issue ako ng statement at sinabi ko duon, “I, therefore, call on every officer and enlisted man to follow your conscience and do what is right – PROTECT THE PEOPLE AND THE STATE!”

Bayan Muna Rep. Satur Ocampo noticed towards midnight last Tuesday, when the voting was about to take place that administration congressmen were marching into the plenary hall.
Ocampo said those congressmen couldn’t be made to return to the Batasan at that late hour by House Speaker Prospero Nograles. “It had to be an order by Gloria Arroyo,” Ocampo said.
