myepinOy on Ducat, Cayetano, Coseteng and Ermita

ARMANDO DUCAT and the hostage crisis is still the talk of the town, and one wonders how much attention this drama would have merited from politici ans-turned-negotiators if this had not happened in an election year.  Here's an excerpt from myepinOy's take on the p olitical mileage that the hostage crisis generated:

While the hostage crisis is ongoing, two of our senatorial candidat es, Allan Peter Cayetano and Dominique Coseteng, went on national television bl aming the administration and Gloria Arroyo for this hostage-taking problem. Typ ical of the dreaded and rotten politicians all over the Philippines, these two can not help themselves but salivate at the opportunity and media mileage that this unfortunate incident would give them. How sweet to hear them talk about the reasons why the situation happened? But h ell no! We Pinoys already know what the problem is. We know that they are part of the problem why Jun Ducat did this and we know their selfish motives.
