One for Joker Arroyo

he's one of the best lawmakers of the philippines. brilliant mind, courageous,
with integrity. for instance, his performance at the impeachment was a masterpi
ece.

i've always thought that the first duty of a congressman and a senator is legis
lation. some measure our lawmakers in terms of "projects". development projects
are more a concern of mayors, governors. a lawmaker looks at legislation issue
s that can help improve business, education, justice, etc.

-jerry, nueva ecija/ohio

He's number one on my list. So far proven to be the best among all the senatori
al bets. He's a remarkable professional senator who doesn't play "mudslinging"
that often characterized out Philippine politics. Indeed, that makes him stand
off among the rest...he does his work with dignity and integrity. He exemplifie
s what a real Filipino politician and lawmaker is...Let's support him!

Actually, I want him to run for Presidency. I think if he does (and wins) he'll
be the greatest president this country(Philippines) has ever had.

joker arroyo does not know me personally nor does i. but i believe in his inte
grity. in the last senatorial election i went to their team's headquarter to a
sk for his posters so i could hire people to post them. however he has no post
er available and they gave me his stickers instead. so i posted it in the ga
tes of the houses in our subdivision.

i want to know where to get his posters or stickers or whatever so i can campai
gn for him in my insignificant way? i campaign for him to all people i talk to.

senator joker i hope you will stay as independent minded with only the best for
the people in mind.

Go Joker go!

i have always admired this man..he is the only senator i'll vote for this comin
g election..the only candidate worthy of my vote and i guess everybody's vote..
truly a good man with an outstanding record..he has proven himself already...hi
story itself has proven his worth...we rarely do have people like him in the go
vernment who is accountable to no one but solely to his conscience and to the f
ilipino people ..i've been campaigning for him since last election and i will c
ontinue to support for him..i even would want him to run for the presidency..i
just pray he'll continue what he has been doing for this country..i will capaig
n hard for you..i want to say also to this man thank you, for at least having y
ou there in the senate, i am not losing hope that filipinos still know how to v
ote wisely and that there are still good people left in the philippine politics
who will continue to fight what is right and what is best for everybody...just
continue to be a good example so that my children would have someone to look u
p to in the government...please do not fail us!!!god bless..certainly you will
win because you have the people's support and the Almighty's blessings!!!

same as u guys... i really admire this guy also, among the senators he was the
one who you will see working in the real sense of being a senator. He is number
one on my list.

I am just wondering why this senator, Joker Arroyo is not supporting the salary
increase for teachers, he dont even give a damn on teachers problem regarding
GSIS. Also he knows very well that the problem on education is lack of educatio
nal materials, chairs, tables blackboards etc. What is he doing?

This guy really knows how a senator should work. He's number one on my very SHO
RT list of senatoriables. PAG GOOD KA....THE BEST KA!!!!!!!

Joker, Joker... mahusay kang senador... and sana makakuha kami ng libreng stick
er!

Joker, penge kami sticker!

I would like to ask where can i get joker arroyo's campaign materials. i'm in l
egazpi st., cebu city right now.. and i'll be leaving for surigao city and sia
rgao islands on thursday.. i'd like to bring his campaign materials so i can ca
mpaign him along during my travel...thanks

Sen. Joker Arroyo is in my book. He is miles away ahead of three Grand alliance
of Genuine Opposition (G.A.G.O) congressmen who are running but nothing to sho
w for all their worth except that they belong to political families trying to p
erpetuate their dynasty till kingdom come. And that is no joke!!!

History tells us that we have the birghtest lawyers/politicians both in our co
ngress and senate. the start reality is the despite the brilliance of these l
awyer, we remain the Ailing (Sick) man of Asia in terms Justice, Poverty and t
he so called FREEDOM of speech.

Despite the great brains of our Lawyers, our Justice worse and can even compar
ed South Asian Country. The level of politics and twisting of facts to justify
their selfish intention are terrible and by no means live to the standard of t
heir profession.

I think mwe have enough of the talking no doubt that Mr. Joekr Arroyo is great
from the perspective of the few, I think his past PERFORMANCE is the Joke of t
he Senate. Nothing against anyone, we can claim the we are best llawyer of perf
ect attendance and other sort of stuff. If the level of POVERTY an injustice i
n the our country does not imprce, THE SENATE,THE CONGRESS And the ADMINISTRATI
ON hhave to be held responsible. My, observtion that Joke is no different from
the Rest of Politicians, He point fingers to adminsitrationtfor any shortcoming
s well in fact , he should be equally responsible because of his too much talki
ng. We DO NOT NEED LAWYERS , WE PEOPLE for OTHER PROESSIONS wit new iDeas an
d new mindset. JOKER should retire if he love our country.

I once believed that Joker, should he be given a chance to become one, he would
become a worthy and intelligent President.
But after having aligned himself with the TU whose patron is GMA, I lose my tru
st and respect in him. Remember how he fought all the excesses of the administ
ration of GMA regarding the Cha-Cha case, the EO 464, the Fertilizer Scam and t
he Garci scam. And all of a sudden because he wanted to get re-elected, he swa
llowed his pride & conviction and join TU and having his hands raised by th
e very same person he fought against. By doing so, I find Joker a trapo, no le
ss. I admire Pangilinan because he stood to what he believed is right. In Jok
er's case, when he fought GMA, he knew he was right. In this election, joining
TU is the right decision (for him) because his only reason is to win. Forget
about conviction. It doesn't seem fit for hiim to use "Pag Bad ka, Lagot ka".
Does it mean that GMA was not bad with all the excesses mentioned above? Or p
ikit-mata ka lang basta manalo? You're such a waste!!!

He is also no. 1 in my list. I believe in him. I think he is one of the very fe
w who is not corrupt and who truly wants to server.

because of the like of joker arroyo in the senate, i still believe that theres
HOPE in Philippine POLITICS....I believe in HIM and he has my VOTE...

Joker says "Kung Bad Ka Lagot Ka". What is he doing in the company of Chavit, a
certified EVIL PERSON? Has Joker condoned the misery of the people of Ilocos S
ur caused by Chavit, who had become filthy rich. Exactly, his money came from f
ilth!

I DON'T THINK SO, ANO GINAWA NG BLUE RIBBON COMMITTEE WHICH HE HEADED TO CASES
INVOLVING THE THIEVING COUPLE IN MALACANANG. JOKER HAS MANURE IN HIS HEAD TOO.
HE HE HE.

Let me just summarize the damages brought by the Marcos regime in our country o
f which I discussed extensively in my previous post under 'Make Your Voices Hea
rd':
1. Disunity because now we are free to voice our opinions unlike during th
e Marcos era
2. Constitutional amendments done during the Aquino regime which gave rise
to incompetent leaders
These hamper the economic growth of the country. Just allow the President to c
ontinue her term and let our economy improve for I believe she is capable of ha
ndling it. If we can rise out of poverty, then we can be well educated.
You may consider this post too late but my sole purpose is for the maturity of
our voters so that come election time these points are considered in truly maki
ng wise judgments in the next election.

joker talaga! hehehe!

I agree with most of you about his wisdom, ability as a good lawyer, senator an
d maybe even a good president, considering that we don't have any alternatives
or choices based on the personality of politician that we have. I voted for him
last 2001 and he was elected on his slogan "ubusin ang mga corrupt" I don't th
ink he accomplished that goal and it become worse because he is too selective o
n whom to apply his slogan, (pag kakampi ok lang). And since his winning is imm
inent perhaps what he should do is apply his objective on whomsoever that corru
pted our government, to clear our society of corruption once and for all not w
ithstanding with political affiliation, so long as he do what is right and for
the best of filipino people, to upgrade the living of every people by giving ed
ucation for all, in that way we can address the poverty of the people and start
to live with dignity as a people, build business, enterprise, and deal with th
e rich and famous businessman of our country to join hands in uplifting the liv
es of all the people and the society as well, and having a platform to have all
the overseas workers come home and start to build our country that is free of
corruption. We can achieve change if we will have a good leader that is of free
mind, not beholden to anybody, to politician, military, businessman, and if he
do this our countrymen will rally behind him and that is the best support that
he can ever have. Good luck Mr. Senator and we're counting on you!!!

Joke is For REAL. He will win. He must win for our sake. But why TU? Maybe bec
ause of REALity that he should face in order to win and because joining the TU
is more of principle and a choice of a lesser evil. Good Luck Philippines... Ma
buhay....

He is one of the senator i voted in this election and i know he shall give more
importance to the lupon Tagapamayapa of the barangay becuase that is the only
hope of the people to get access to a cheap and affordable justice system for t
he poorest of the poor. without a strong and competent lupon in every barangay
therer's no way the poor could get ample and equitable justice in that area.tho
usand of cases will still and continue to flood our court dockets. so please at
tend to that problem, Joker.

i bet ya, joker is a joke, he would never win presidency. philippines will not
prosper under his watch either. could you tell me what he had or has accompli
shed under his blue ribbon committee. he is like her amo GMA. if crooks are o
n his side they will be untouchables. he he he. HE IS A JOKE!!! TRUE TO HIS N
AME.

philippines needs somebody who will truly serve the people regardless of their
state in life and which party they belong. hurrah oppositions, i know one of y
ou will rise as good president of this country ruined by the bogus president, g
loria arroyo, shame on you gloria.

you're no. 4 in my list after "kapatiran" hehe...kasi i did it alphabetically (
lol!). you are an idol! Break a leg po on your next turn in the senate.

The only thing I know about this Jocker is he's a good protector of Mr. &a

ell happen. Probably it even worse just like whats going on right now. No diffe

Joker slams Ping for reviving Jose Pidal issue
############################
When Joker Arroyo, The one handling the blue ribbon comittee, He keep covering
up the Jose Pidal, Case. Because his the protector of Gloria Arroyo. Now, That
the opposition going to open the case again his piss off. Because he knows that
Mike Arroyo, Is guilty. Because Jose Pidal, Is Mike Arroyo. Not Iggy Arroyo!!!

By CHRISTINA MENDEZ
The Philippine Star

Sen. Joker Arroyo lashed out at opposition Sen. Panfilo Lacson Sunday for reviv
ing the issue of the Jose Pidal accounts in an obvious bid to grab the chairman
ship of the Senate Blue Ribbon committee, which conducted the inquiry into the
controversial issue about three years ago.

Arroyo and Lacson are headed for a showdown in the 14th Congress because Lacson
expressed keen interest in the chairmanship of the Blue Ribbon committee held
by the older senator, Senate observers said.

"Senator Lacson talks through his hat when he says he wants closure in the Jose
Pidal case. Of course, there has been closure, albeit caused by himself â by h
is own failure and inaction. He botched it, plain and simple," said Arroyo.

Arroyo broke his silence on the issue after Lacson insinuated in various public
interviews after the May 14 elections that Arroyo sat on the case. He also sur
mised that Lacsonâs public statements may be fueled by his "lust" for the commi
ttee chairmanship.

He earlier said he is not interested in getting the Blue Ribbon committee back
in the next Congress.

The committee had ruled on Oct. 12, 2003 that it "would await the presentation
by (Lacson) of proof of illegal and not merely improper, of criminal and not me
rely salacious, conduct that can be traced to the First Gentleman," Arroyo said
.

The ruling was signed by the majority of committee members and filed before the
plenary.

Arroyo said Lacson failed to produce a court order â as shown in the committee
report â that would empower the Senate to look into the Jose Pidal accounts cov
ered by the Bank Secrecy Law.

"That was way back in 2003 â in the 12th Congress. The 13th Congress will soon
lapse in two weeks, and we would witness the onset of the 14th Congress. Senato
r Lacson has yet to get a court order as the law requires and as the committee
impressed upon him," Arroyo said. "Lacson lusts after the Blue Ribbon committee
chair. He can have it."

Shortly after the May 14 elections, in which he won a fresh mandate under the G
enuine Oppositionâs (GO) banner, Lacson expressed keen interest in heading the
Blue Ribbon committee once the 14th Congress convenes on July 23.

Arroyo stated in a strongly-worded statement sent to The STAR Sunday that Lacso
nâs failure to get a court order prevented the Senate from going a step further
and look into the bank records of Jose Pidal.

In its 2003 ruling, the committee said the Senate "cannot just inquire into the
bank accounts of a private individual merely because a senator makes a public
issue of him in a privilege speech and a congressional inquiry is constituted t
o satisfy what one might better describe as a public curiosity rather than publ
ic interest."

Arroyo also said the Bank Secrecy Law, as passed in 1955, does not empower cong
ressional committees to examine bank deposits without "the invocation of the ju
dicial process." The law limits such ability to a select number of institutions
and situations, one of which is Congress, when trying an impeachment case.

Faced with the risk of being sanctioned by the Financial Action Task Force (FAT
F), Arroyo said the committee pointed out that even the provisions of the newly
enacted Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) do not grant Congress the power to ex
amine bank accounts without proper court orders.

"In February of (2003), the Senate debated the amendments to the AMLA. The Sena
te voted down, by a vote of 12-8-1 the attempt to relax the restrictions on the
opening of bank deposits without a court order," Arroyo said, quoting portions
of his committee report. As such, Arroyo noted that a majority of senators wer
e apprehensive that the power to examine bank deposits without a court order ca
n be used as "an instrument of political persecution."

Nice...

Nice!

i don't much about joker's accomplishment except his good performance during es
trada's empeachment case.

but regarding the JOSE PIDAL case, it was clear that PING LACSON merely used th
e issue for political grandstanding. LACSON talks too much in TVs and he is goo
d in talking.. there was no substance on the issue and no evidence presented.

let's be fair. let's not be too emotional about our sufferings. better work har
d, salina, para naman umunlad ka.

fyi lang po.

Senator Arroyo has earned the title of the "most thrifty/frugal legislator in t
he Philippines". He never traveled abroad on government money. His Statement of
Assets and Liabilities has remained almost unchanged from the time he entered
public service in 1986.

could you compare this to other opposition senator?

its more on principle and who will lead a better to a philippines

it is unfortunate (or fortunate?) for joker to be an arroyo. otherwise he is f
ar far better than Lacson who is dying for the presidency. right now the patron
of hate politics is bitter for not getting the blue ribbon chair. i guess a pi
nk ribbon is better for him. joker might not be best president the country can
have, but from among the current corrupt i mean crop of leaders i think he is m
ost qualified. the irony in country is the bulk of "boughters" come from the
least educated and non-tax paying masa.
