Question: What’s the difference between all the following political parties- GO, TU, KBL, IDP, Laban, CMD, Coalition of whatever, etc, etc? Answer: Letters, that’s the only difference!! Our politicians were running on empty platforms and bogus promises, but their real intent is self-interests, period! If you people haven’t figured it out yet.

There is no such a thing as simple majority (50 + 1) in the Senate or in the Lower House. Even in the Executive Branch, the president and vice president belong to “opposing” parties, therefore there is a clash between the two of them. There are TU candidates who used to be GO or opposition. Your government is beyond repair.

Come next House and Senate sessions, find out what legislations these clowns passed for the welfare of the masa. But one thing for sure, these politicos will pass legislation that will benefit…them and them alone!

So, all these letter-affiliated political parties don’t mean s**t, and you can take it to the bank. People take back your government and hold them accountable. Force them out of office or forever be…doomed!!

If you vote for GO candidates, you voted for unprincipled candidates…

i do not thing a vote for GO is a vote for ERAP but if we analyze what happened, i think that ERAP is definitely a better endorser than GMA. Kahit papano may hatak pa rin sya. I am sure a lot of ERAP supporters voted straight GO. The election showed that GMA can have all the mayors at her side but they cannot dictate the will of their constituents. Akala nila puede nilang isubo ang lahat ng mga taga-TU sa bibig ng mga tao, ngayon nakita nila na wala silang magagawa pag iniluwa yung mga candidato. i am seeing some kind of political maturity or it might just a sign that people are fed up.

How one can say the GO are brilliant, rides on Erap and then everyone is at it. It is sad that that sounds you are corrupted too. Politicians kind have the same thing in common in mind and heart. The difference would be their ultimate goal.

Our society is not only a breeding ground for brilliant, honest but as well as ugly and corrupt politicians. Sad to say the bad ones takes the limelight and affects every corner of the society. The cycle is there and deep rooted to family level. Just imagine a couple is the mayor and vice mayor of a town and their son and daughter are members of the council. Over the years their constituents could see how affluent they became (rags to riches in politics). Those who are able to taste the sweet aroma of power (money too) will do their best to stay there forever and would never know what public service is. Once in power every tack-ticks will be in place for them to perpetuate their hold and doesn’t think twice to kill just to go on.

Running to be in office is now a big business. It doesn’t make sense one would invest millions with a job salary of a hundred thousand? Where would they get the difference? It looks like politicians are charitable people but common sense will tell that they are robbing us on the pretense of public service.

Nobody of so called “elected public servant” wants to stick their nose to make laws to break the clana/dynasties or succession of family members to power because they are affected and are afraid will not recoup (and more) their “investments” in one term of office. That is now a common the thinking that is somehow engrave in our childrens mind.

We are now in a difficult situation and can’t do much to stop what is happening. Common knowledge that a certain elected “Juan” amassed wealth while in office will be succeeded by his wife “Juana” or son “juanito” or daughter “juanita” by hook or by crook. Chances of other people who supposed to also have the “will” or “desire” to serve the public becomes slimmer as money talks on politics. So if there is no financier available to take on the moneyed incumbent, killing maybe the only choice. The opponent will just simply say he got nothing to do with the crime and when he/she on power will do the same. It is funny that people can take such and even make jokes. People also becomes “mathematicians” equating politicians to thieves, gangster and killers. Sure laughters breaks but in the end people are the losers.

I think there will be less chances of evil to happen if we do have a law breaking the cycle of a dynasty or clan. Computerization must be in-place to lessen cheating in poles. Pay the elected public servant more salary and benefits and make and implement laws that prevent robbing the peoples wealth. Make a better rule of election campaign that gives equal exposure to everyone without spending more than what salary he/she gets. Perhaps it is more sensible that expenses is to be shouldered by the government to publish candidates records so people can have a better way to choose.

Kahit pa naman noong una,corruption existed already. We are already year 2007,mas tumindi at lumala pa. Naturingan ngang lider, siya pa ang nangurakot. Kumusta naman ‘yon! Kahit sa simbahan may mga paring nangungurakot kahit sabihin nating tagapaglingkod siya ng Diyos. Hay naku, lahat talaga sakim, ganid ng kung anu-ano. Sana may mangyaring matindi sa bansa para magising ang bawat isa lalong lalo na yong mga kurakot na opisyales ng bansa.

GO is about erap, to say otherwise is a self-denial, a sin one has to bear perpetually until repentance on what he wrongfully believe guided by delusions instilled by pretenders. Why cant just admit “yes! I was wrong” instead saying “but i’m partly right”. Would you stand by Singson!, Garcillano!, GMA, Jose Pidal, Esperon! Ermita!, Raul Gonzales, Davide and other puppets? You can ask yourself straight, and get straight answer. Sad truism is that we love to hang person accused as petty thieves but eagerly appoint the great ones to public office.

OK fine.

Most GO voters are against GMA’s administration because it is to them “illegal” and corrupt. Did they not find it ironic that the main endorser of GO candiates is behind bars accused of plunder? So, against corruption these incoming senators huh?

I WANT TO SEE AGAIN 1081.

GO is not Erap same as TU is not Gloria (if only for Joker). and neither GO nor TU are political parties. there are no political parties in this country. only ragtag units of political syndicates out to fight each other for power.

if the next senate cant do anything about it, then what the hell! pag-umpugin nlang natin mga ulo nila…

They are all the same, erap, GMA, etc., And the new ones will be like them - in time. For so long as we do NOT make examples of anyone, corruption will continue to nourish. From one set of crooks to a new one that is more hungrier, who will begin looting from scratch, and then a new set takes over, so on and so forth. It will be a repeat of the jose velarde, jose pidal but they will run to hundreds. From marcos to the present and the future, pare-pareho lang sila.

Pro-GO is not equivalent to pro-Erap

” YES. THAT I AGREE WITH YOU.”

Posted under Readers’ Blog Posts
I VOTED for GO (Genuine Opposition) candidates not because of Erap. I think GO candidates are brilliant people and have their own minds. If anything (and this may sound brutal) they might just be riding on Erap’s popularity among the masses. That’s how things are in politics.

Let’s not box Erap with all these corrupt and negative things. Let the one without sin, cast the first stone, as the Bible says. Erap has long vacated the president’s post but graft and corruption still runs rampant in the government. The Cebu lamp posts, the Garci tape, the Macapagal highway… I mean everyone is at it. I believe at some level we all are corrupt. And it goes the same with lies.

Lies are lies regardless of color.
*********
Fr: Salina.

Yep! Lies, Are Lies, Regardless of color. That I agree with 100% And you’re absulotely right people keep saying that Erap is the biggest crooks. But, Under Gloria Arroyo, Bugos regime the corruption are rampant. And most of all there is more and more filipino people are starving. So much of her booming economy. The only thing is booming in the Philippines is hunger, killing’s, stealling…This is one of the reason why the philippines never get out from under. We have a leader who keep lying to the filipino people. In my book Gloria Arroyo, Don’t deserve to be a leader.

Aside from that ever since she squatting in Malacanyang Palace. The Philippines has been tag as NUMBER ONE CORRUPT IN ASIA. NUMBER ONE HUMAN VIOLIATION. THANKS TO GLORIA ARROYO!

[...] Eleksyon 2007 Blog: Pro-GO is not equivalent to pro-Erap [...]

whatever, this society is so full of crap, am leaving anyway, at lumubog man ang Pilipinas at mawala sa mapa, wala kong pakelam. Kung pare-pareho lang lahat, edi wag na bumoto, tapos…

…speaking of corruption,you migt consider me as among those.

i dont pay taxes.

but hell, there is no point with these bunch of lousy thieves around the government.

well,i voted for GO,plainly to help change things.

and,ya,that’s a bit of a brutal reality for erap…but that is the most likely case.

There were some positive aspects in the May 14, 2007 election.

The Kapampangans showed the way that with deep resolve and conviction, we could be freed from the ills of political dynasties and coniyism.

Let this message be heard from sea to sea. No more dynasties and political favoritism.

para kay pacquiao at gma : beh buti nga. magagaling na talaga ang mga tao. sana matauhan na ‘tong squatter sa malacanang. pansinin n’yo ang mga pumapasok sa magic 12, majority sa GO. ‘yung iba naman, nasa TU pero mga guest candidates lang ni gma. pero ang totoo, zero sila, wala man lang kahit isa sa mga bata ni gma.

If you vote for GO candidates, you voted for unprincipled candidates…
************
Fr: Salina.

Just to let you know my entire family voted straight opposition. Ng dahil hindi na naman masikmura ang karakutan under this bugos regime. At nakikita namin ang katutuhanan. If you pretend to be blind thats your business but not all filipinos are blind.

I don’t give a shit what you think! You have the right to vote anybody you want just like everybody else. But, For you to tell the people who voted for opposition candidates, Unprinciple are hyporictes just like Gloria Arroyo.

Fr: Salina.

Yes, GO. Is not Erap. Nor TU. Is not Gloria. But there is lots of people where saying that this election is between Erap/Gloria. If it is true! then they should just have a snap election. I’m pretty sure Erap, Will mop Gloria Arroyo, Ugly face sa kangkunga.

Either its true or not the sentiment of filipino people are all the same. They’re fed up with this bugos gov’t of Mrs. Pidal.

This is the reason why opposition candidates are winning. Its means the filipino people still love Erap! And thats make him a better person compare to Mrs. Pidal. Either campo ni Gloria, Admitted or not. And the filipino knows that if tuta ni Gloria, Win this election she’ll be in power forever.

“WE JUST HAVE A PEOPLE POWER VOTES!”

And this is only the beginning. TUTA NI GLORIA, WATCH OUT. NG DAHIL HINDI KAMI NATUTULOG.

‘Let the one without sin cast the first stone.’ That’s why you’re forced to choose b/w the lesser of 2 evils. A vote for GO is not necessarily a vote for Erap but was endorsed by Erap? That’s not how most people saw it. Then why didn’t they run as Independents instead?

Fr: Salina.

Simple Pinoy. Yes, Its true that Erap endorese all opposition candidates, So what’s wrong with that.

You were saying that Erap, Is in jail. It is also true, That he’s getting rotten in jail for the accussing that up to date they still don’t have any solid evidence against him. If you don’t believe me, Please go ahead and check all the record in the court house so that you may find out the truth nothing but the truth.

Gloria Arroyo, Et al. The one should be in jail because there is solid evidence against them. But yet she’s the one running the country because she control the corrupt justice system.

salina, what made you think that GO candidates are brilliant people and speak their own minds? Did you check their records during their stint in congress? Does GO candidates did something especial to uplift the lives of our fellow citizen? or you just saw them on TV making accusations after accusations just to gain media exposures to advance their interests? Did you herd Trillanes saying that after he got elected he will impeach the president? Hindi pa man nauupo paghihiganti na`agad ang iniisip. Sa palagay nyo pana tayo uunlad? sa pag iimpeach ba ng kung sino man ang nakaupo?

Speaking of media, they are the number one endorser of GO candidates. Lets face the fact that the media are the one’s who are conditioning the minds of the people. I just noticed that every news whether in the net or in papers the oppositions shines. Every moves the opposition makes it’s headline. Every editor or contributors of the newspapers esp. INQUIRER are anti Government except for one Ms. Olivarez-Cunanan. What happen to the balance of journalism? or why write some crap without even investigate the whole story. Try to dig deeper. PLEASE! What happen to investigative journalism? you just write or broadcast what is best to bring down the Arroyo government and that is misleading. You are just poisoning the mind of your readers or televiewers (for TV patrol nakakasuka na beaver). You are all BIAS against the Arroyo Gov’t. I just wondered WHY?

Just Try to help the Government whoever the president is and maybe someday we will harvest the fruit of our labor.

just here hoping and praying!

“I believe at some level we all are corrupt. And it goes the same with lies”

You are 100% correct… It seem that corruption is already a part of our culture.
I agree too that voting for GO does not mean ERAP. His case is still up and about
and it’s time for a verdict.

Now let’s wait and see how the newly elected GO Senators and Congressmen will prove that corruption and lies will be arrested and stopped.
With a miserable salary as Senators and Congressmen , it’s a very tough job but possible. Is it ??????? (^_~)
Hoping results will not be a total replay of previous elected officials preformances for the people and country.

“In politics, there is no permanent friends nor permanent enemies;only permanent interest.” Nevertheless, I voted for those candidates with good “heart” and a “character” not because they belong to GO or TU.

True voting GO candidates is not equivalent to being Pro-Erap.

Filipinos have begun to look at the individual candidate’s capacity and integrity rather than associate their votes based on influential personalities like Erap, Gloria, et al. For this I am thankful. There is still work to be done in the local levels though.

Erap is simply incidental in GO. Even without Erap GO would still have roughly the same votes.

I’ve been only away from our country for 30 months now, when I first checked the results of the election, I don’t know what TU or GO means, and it turned out to be a political party, on that name alone you can see their motive, just to stay on power for their own bested interest and not for the people. And I cant still imagined how easily changed their stand, those who stand on the trial of erap is on the GO side, and those who are with erap on the trial is on the same side. Really no permanent friend or allies or conviction of their own. Its very sad indeed!!! How can we have a good leader if what is happening is always the same thing? ( parang sira plaka) It became a cycle, We need to make a stand to stop these cycle or otherwise we will not progress as a nation. Erap has still more supporter than gloria, because erap is erap, maybe gloria is wiser than erap because of her opportunity to study abroad being a daughter of former president in georgetown in DC where I lived now, but erap is more principled than she is. Erap was ousted because of the jueteng scandal, but the truth is there is a conspiracy to oust him, From his vice pres, former pres whom professed our nation to be a tiger one but it turned out to be not even on a cathegory of a cat because it is bankrupt, and erap want to investigate the past administration irregularities (many things to write), and also the business man whom erap offended, to cite one when he decided to lower the fare of mrt so that it can afford by the masses.( and many more), and also by the church who sided with chavit, who is chavit? by the way, military and the media as well who is part of the businessman, and the politician who want to grab power. Aside from jueteng, his vices erap is good, and he is transparent for he is the only one appointed a civilian to head a defense department who turned away from him, because ha was not totally accepted in that department. Maybe erap is less educated than any of the president that we have, but I think if not for that anak ng jueteng, he became a good president for he is willing to stand on what he believes and implement the law to whoever violates it. That is why Im on a crusade to have a leader who is not beholden to anybody, i don’t care whoever he/she maybe as long as he runs on the premise of good governance and to overhaul the corrupt system of our government, from brgy to presidency, tax, customs and many other things, and hope we can havethat leader as soonest the better, lets get rid of these politician and look for a brighter future ahead. Like for example, in pampanga, nueva ecija and bulacan they ousted the powerful and incumbent for a long period of time, they are like david who beat goliath and on that premise I still see a little hope that we can arise as a nation and have a leader that will governed us and bring our country for the better.

one more comment in our country we say take home pag order sa restawrant kung gusto ipabalot, dito sa america tanong sayo dine in? or TUGO? dapat magisip na sila para di maibalot!!!

And the only way we can succeed is to unite and kick the bugos regime of Mrs. Pidal’s. For a better Philippines.

Yes, Gloria Arroyo, Have more education compare to Erap, But she don’t have a common sense, She don’t have any idea on how to run the country because she’s only upfront. The military the one running the country. The reason they don’t want the whole world to know about it because they’re afraid to lose all the goodies they’re receiving from other country. Especially from the U.S.GOV’T.

pare-preaho lang sila mga kawatan. kanya-kanyang style lang ng kurakot kaya magsitigil na sila. me kasabihan nga tayo na ang magnanakaw galit sa kapwa magnanakaw…lalo na pag nalalamangan ng kapwa. Kaya dapat sa 2010, kandidato dapat si father panlilio as president at saka si mayor sonny belmonte as vice president or vice versa..tingnan lang natin kung hindi magkaroon ng himala sa pilipinas.

In other words they’re only gonna be Gloria puppet’s. We don’t need any candidates like that. There is plenty already. We need a candidates who can be independed in all aspect.

Bajhista: How funny you said that these senator’s is not making very much money. Yes, I believe they’re only making about P30,000. A month. That’s only P360,000. A year. My question is if they’re only making thirty thousand peso a month, How on earth these senator’s can afford to go abroad so many times a years.

How can they afford to buy real estate that cost over a million’s peso. How can they afford to have these very expensive car. I have a cousin who’s a gov’t worker he’s complaining because he’s salary is not enough to live on. He have to depend on his wife money remmittance every month so that he can be able to pay for his children’s education.

How on earth these politician even live in alabang, When the house’s in that area alone cost over fiffty million’s peso or so! Where are they getting their money if is not from corruption.

For what I know these politician are getting these money from their pork barrel. these pork barrel should be use for project’s. But I guess they’re not doing it. They’re only making thenselves richer on those pork barrell. they should ilimanated these pork barrel. So that there would be no corruption. Don’t you agree?

ansama di ba??? tayong mga ordinaryong Pilipino e nag aaway-away tungkol dito. nagkapikunan man kayo dahil sa iba-ibang opinyon nyo e kahit isa sa inyo walang tama… pagkatapos ng eleksyon, di na kayo iniisip mga ibinoto nyo. kaya sa susunod kung pwede lang na magkaisa ang lahat at wag na lang bumoto… ikakamatay ko na, pero di na talaga uunlad ang pinas, nakakasawa na.

If they only believe what they read. Or heard on TV. The newspaper, TV only report what they knows they’re not trying to condidation the mind of other people. Just remember that.

Now, The Capt. Trillanes, Were saying that if he win this election the first he’s going to do is to impeach Gloria Arroyo,
This is what he said.

“THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE FOR PEACEFUL WAY TO REMOVE THE UNDERSIRABLES GOV’T SO THAT WE CAN PROGRESS.”

The only reason Capt. Trillanes, Said that because there is solid evidence against Gloria Arroyo, Et al.

When Capt. Trillanes, And the magdalo soldier’s went to makiti and try coup d’tat they went to Malacanyang Palace and talk to Gloria Arroyo, They show her those evidence and she said that she’s going to take care of it. But she didn’t. She just ignore it.

Because she’s afraid to put the corrupt AFP to jail because they’re the one protecting her from her stolen power. Aside from that these soldier’s the one running the country. Why do you think none of them went to jail, In fact Gloria Arroyo, Promote then in higher position. And throw the magdalo soldier’s in jail.

Tama ba yan. The magdalo soldier’s the one complaint hoping that their so call leader well listen to them. But didn’t. She throw them in jail instead. You can’t blame these Magdalo soldier’s for what they did. After the magdalo soldier’s rot in jail the bugos regime of Gloria Arroyo, Just cover everything up.

Lets face it. Erap, Might not have a good education but he’s very smart. And he got a good heart to go alone with it. And I can attest to that.

But, Gloria Arroyo, Out smart him ng dahil before he got elected President Gloria Arroyo, Et al. already cooking something, They’re already planning to oust him in the office. When Erap, Find out about this he don’t believe it. Because he trusted Gloria Arroyo, The very christian lady. Now, He knows that Gloria Arroyo, Is the most evil person on earth. You can’t blame Capt. Trillanes, If he want to get rid of this evil person who’s squatting in Malacanyang Palace. Amen, Amen, Amen:

‘Let the one without sin cast the first stone.’ That’s why you’re forced to choose b/w the lesser of 2 evils. A vote for GO is not necessarily a vote for Erap but was endorsed by Erap? That’s not how most people saw it. Then why didn’t they run as Independents instead?
**********
Fr: Salina.

Pian: Okay, Okay, We did it. We choice to vote for lesser evil. This is one of the reason why most GO CANDIDATES ARE WINNING. Thank you, All…..

TO ORLY
Erap, the womanizer/illegal gambler/plunderer/low educated/liar better than liar GMA? You’ve got to be kidding.

Thus this mean that if you voted for TU Candidates, you voted for principled candidates?

Just wondering where did you get that logic.

I voted for mix TU and GO, and it happens that majority from my choices are from GO.

If we are speaking of principled candidate,
I can throw Chiz as one of the most principled candidate…

I didn’t vote for Trillanes but, everyone is surprised with his current standing. I believe, people voted form him because they find him as a candidate who is firm from what he believes.

By the way, I hope everyone here exercise their right of suffrage..else

baka kasi kamukha lang kayo ng kakilala ko.. ngawa ng ngawa
indi naman pala bumoto.. sorry sa tinamaan ha.=)

Your statement

Enrico Navea
If you vote for GO candidates, you voted for unprincipled candidates…

pro go is not pro-erap. it is simply anti-gloria. the filipino people are sick and tired of a bogus regime.

comelec shud pay!

to chair. ben abalos, talaga bang hindi pa release ang transportation allowance (P300.00)ng mga umupo sa mga presinto(teacher/member) sa last poll? hindi pa kc binibigay ng local government yung last payment!(yung P3,000.00 ay ibinigay 2 gives pa!)tapos na po eleksyun! anu ba yan! matapos magpakapagod, puyat at pila!dto po yan sa bayan ng infanta, quezon.

to enrico n: so who do you think are your principled candidates? is it mike defensor, pichay, recto, sotto, oreta and singson of TU? Save for J. Arroyo and perhaps Ed Angara, your TU stinks of the worst in public service. What with Mike D turning heaven to hell to deprive the public of their right to information, this jerk has even had the gall to call tv networks to be selective in what they are airing; Pichay, i believe is the most corrupt representative in philippine politics as he does not affix signature without the “porsiyento” going to his pocket for any approved project in the govt. Look at his home province in surigao, one can hardly see any sign of development or progress yet he can spend 200 million in tv ads alone..Recto we all know is the most elitist of all politicians, until now i still wonder how he manage to slip past those he trails in 2001 senatorial elections. Sotto and oreta are certified turncoats to the highest degree, they misconstrued personal interes with public service. Sotto is apathetic, he affirms to death that FPJ was cheated in Maguindanao in 2004 elections, now he sings the same tune but with different lyrics..what a shame! and Singson, wow! i could almost puke just hearing the name..he thinks he can fool the Filipino people twice? he can go to Mindanao and be the President of the Republic of Maguindanao..people there are so callous anyway..or he better disappear in oblivion.. this man thinks he can buy everything with his money. he doesnt have a place here…tsuu!
GO candidates are dominating the senate polls simply because people are sick and tired of the callousness of the squatter in Mlalacanang..
Respect begets respect…Let us respect the true will of ther people..

The solution is simple. We can argue all we can until were blue in the face and the politicians will spit on us and laugh all the way to the bank.

Why dont we just make an example of the cheats? Get to comelec mandaraya and behead them in public as an example?

Why dont we bring General Garcia to luneta and chop his head off as a warning to all the corruptors?

Voting out corrupt politicians and replacing them again with new corrupt ones and then voting them out again is just an excercise in FUTILITY! The new ones begin looting from scratch. And when they are voted out the next crop begins looting again. Its the same cycle over and over again.

Wala namang ibang pagpipilian sa mga senador, gusto mo ba si CHAVIT(puro sabit) o si Defensor “tol”(maraming TUTOL).Doon na lang ako sa GO, malilinis naman ang mga record niyan, hindi komo GO e Erap na….

I also voted mostly for GO candidates, but not because of ERAP. I just want to stick one thing to the present administration. You are losing trust of the filipinos by your refusal to answer allegations on your credibility. Yung ginagamit na issues ng opposition like the hello garci case, the macapagal hi-way, fertilizer scam…if you have answered them straight on, hindi sana ganito naging resulta ng eleksiyon. this is a sign that the people don’t trust you anymore. sayang, magagaling pa naman ang nakaupo, wala lang talagang credibilidad….sad indeed

That’s the sad truth. Strategy, we may call it – to win the hearts of anti-GMA voters. Probably they looked at Filipinos as children who would agree to everything who would satisfy their candy cravings. If they had their own minds and principles, they should have stood by it. Instead, they chose to portray images of corruption. And that was their way to win our freedom.

To Simple pinoy.jay & whoever believes with Pandak!!

How can you say that the election is not a referendum of Gloria’s illegitimate government? tama yung mag ibang blogger dito na if your not blind to see clearly what the bogus President of yours have done in her 7 yeasr in power… let me inumerate a few achievements she contributed:

The komolek or COMELEC
youve got a Body that supposed to protect our God given right to vote and elect our leaders and behold what Gloria did hurrah pull out her greatest Feat that is the hello Garci scandal ( ang isda nahuhuli sa Bunganga!) youve got ABALOS who is hell bent in trying to make sure that Allan Cayetano will loss the election.. just look at their ruling against Auncle Mike’s nuisance candidate!! speaking of impartiality my ass!!

EO464, CHACHA and of course Jose Pidal account The fertilizer scam the Jueteng gate the militarization of the Government the killings and disappearance of left leaning and militant personalities JOCJOC BOLANTE name it Gloria has it!

the problem is Glora cant handle the truth!
that she will go down in history as the worst and most hated president that ever set foot in malacanang.. all this troubles wasnt started by her critics it all started by her illegitimacy.. all those issues thrown at her happened because she was desparate to hold on to power and that she hasn’t got the mandate of the filipino people.

now blogging against the win of the opposition and trying to excuse why TU candidates where lagging behind the count and to try to blame or find excuse for their misery is as lame and stupid as the TU candidates itself. lets face it GO won because the people hated Gloria and her minions and TU lost because of they represent what Gloria hve stood for!!
now its seems that is you cant handle the truth!!

by the way hope that with dagdag bawas in full swing maybe stil,l Chavit will dislodged Legarda in number 1 position and the rest of the TU senators get in the magic 12 hahahaha certainly they have shown that in Maguindanao with their 12-0 win hahaha and Chavit made a feat of topping the election there, that made me wonder in ilocos region he couldnt even muster enough followers to gigure in top 15… and yet he toped the polls in maguindano of all places hahha speaking of Ate Gloria’s magic!!

erap is a spent force..he is not the GO..the only thing clear in the result of senatorial elections is simple: GET RID OF THE MOLE…

One must think that in a perfect world the government is not corrupt. However, reality dictates that power corrupts even the most well intentioned among us. Looking to the West and more matured government, this practice of corruption among men/women in power prevails. We as citizens of the nation should be strong to demand good governance, we elected this people to serve our interest not their personal interest. We are their masters not them to rule over us. This is the manner by which we must think, as practiced by the citizens of other countries who have progressed democratically through intellectual means.

You’re all missing the point. It’s the poor state of the economy and the flawed political structure that result in the kind of politicians we have.

If our economy can afford to pay the lowest government employee enough to feed a family, send children to college and retire with dignity, then he will have the choice whether to be corrupt or principled.

As for senators, would any of you spend P150 million of your own money to get a chance to legislate and serve the nation? I doubt anyone would. Therefore, all those who run with a realistic chance of winning use other people’s money; most of which are from business, vested interest and crime groups and illegally obtained party funds.

I think we would have politically matured if the likes of those 3 Kapatiran candidates will have a realistic chance at winning. But let’s not be naive and expect this to happen overnight.

What this country really needs is a sustained economic growth for at least another 10 years and an overhaul of the current political framework.

Then perhaps, leaders we truly deserve shall rise and serve; and bring this country back to greatness.

I vote for GO not because of Erap but because we believed that legislations must be centered for the welfare of the Filipino people and not for selfish interest of the few. People must heard and not be disregard. It is for us to put legislators who are principled, competent and most of all God-fearing. It may be personally that GO candidates are weak but we dont need it in governance. All we need is the fruit of their labor in the name of genuine and “suberb” performance for the people’s welfare.

You are right Jay! It’s the reason why, I don’t buy Inquirer anymore. I now shifted to Philippine Star, coz I find it a bit more objective compared to Inquirer.. Sorry… this is an inquirer’s blog.. but i just need to voice out my take on what’s going on with our media today.

Media isn’t supposed to take side, and shove their opinions in peoples’ throat, but that’s exactly what the Philippine media is doing with the exceptions of few journalists of course.

They are just supposed to present facts, and let the people decide.

Try reading inquirer everyday and listen to Korina Sanchez…. you’ll surely feel depress and shall think of migrating to another country.

Brothers,

Tell me where can you find this verse in the Bible?

“Let the one without sin cast the first stone”

Please help???

For sure a vote for GO is not a vote for Erap. But the qualities of GO candidates are far better than the TU. GO has the vision of eradicating the present government of corruption. So many scandals have come-out from the present administration and GMA haven’t even prosecute them except to harass the candidates against her. The present government have done nothing to govern in a clean & honest governance. I think this the reason that the GO candidates are leading in the senatorials line-up. GMA can dictate the will of the people on local level but not on national issues & governance. So many harassment have come out just in this election and for me this election is the most dirtiest we ever have. The rampant cheating and anomalies by the Pro-GMA poll executives from the last election and today. Our country is in dire-straits of looking for a good governance that’s why majority of Filipino people elected the GO candidates to restore our image in the world. And this election is not about Erap & GMA but about the governance of our contry.

Get rid of GMA and then what? Wala, same bannana. More Jose Pidal’s, Jose Velarde’s. Its a vicious cycle. Until we can educate our people to choose the “right” people, and instill fear on all who are corrupt (by cuttting of their heads), nothing will happen. Getting rid of GLORIA just like getting of rid of Marcos is not the answer. We got rid of Marcos and then what? We supposedly elected a sainit in Tita Cory but her kamaganaks (the Cojuangcos) began looting our coffers. Has anyone asked what happened to the jewelries of Imelda? Some say they are in the hands of former cory people. And then Ramos- who sold practically all non-profit corporations of the national government for a song. In the guise of raising capital. Where did it go? Some in Guimaras in thousands of mango trees in his dummies (the alcantaras), and we elected Erap. Pang masa daw, until we found out they were getting drunk with Johnny Walker Blue with his midnight cabinets and making Malacanang a night club of sorts, and yes the Jose Velarde issue which led to his ouster. And now, GMA, starring Mike Arroyo aka, Jose Pidal in the guise of Iggy Arroyo. When will it stop?

The propaganda of ALL politicians have always been HONESTY, WELFARE OF THE PEOPLE, FOR COUNTRY, FOR PRINCIPLES, etc., etc., etc…Wake up people! They havent even assumed office some are jockeying for positions already. Watch when the Senators begin office, they - LEGARDA, ESCUDERO, VILLAR, LACSON, ROXAS will try to compete in prepartion for the elections in 2010. In the senate alone there will be fierce competition on who will be senate president. For the welfare daw of the people? hahahahahahahahahhaa…And there’s DE CASTRO who will begin to campaign using government facilities and funds. That my friends, dear bloggers, will be the start of the 2010 CAMPAIGN! And where does that leave us? Writing our comments, fighting against each other, arguing, arguing some more while they use their positions for their OWN personal agenda’s to get elected again.

WAKE UP PARE KO! Don’t let the politiicans think were idiots to fall for what they want us to perceive but which they are NOT: principled, competent and most of all God-fearing.

Pare-pareho lang sila. Linoloko lang ang lahat.

In the segment of the LEFT, its even worse. In the guise (again) of being PRO-POOR and PRO-PEOPLE “daw”, their leaders enjoy the cool breeze, fine wine, limo’s and laid back lifestyle in the Nethederlands. While their comrades ANNIHILATE each other here via the RPA - NPA war. While Ka Rosal and company starve themselves in the mountains fighting for a lost cause when their leaders are not even here! IF the leaders of the Left do not have the BALLS to come home and fight for their cause why would people fight for their cause? To die, be tortured, while their leaders enjoy themselves?

Go o TU, bantayan natin lahat yang mananalo. Lahat yan CRAPO. Luma na yung trapo. Same Crap, Same Smell.

Babawiin nila yung ginastos nila. Kaya magbantay tayo habang nakaupo yan.

Imagine how we can change things if they finish their terms without being able to steal money and get back what they put in the elections - madadala lahat yan.

Lahat yan, maniwala kayo.

Maliban lang sana pag nakalusot si Trillanes at hindi siya mabulag. Si Trillanes ay may atraso sa atin. Mali ang ginawa niya sa Oakwood. Pero pag nakalusot yan, dapat niyang ibunyag ang lahat ng katiwalaan na wala pang sinomang senador ang nakakapagpamalita sa madlang tao. Tignan natin ang tunay na tapang at paninindigan ni Trillanes. Baka naman ay may ginuhit sa tadhana niya na para sa atin. Iyan lang kasi ang bukod-tanging walang ipinuhunan sa kampanya.

“…Then why didn’t they run as Independents instead?”

its simple. because running independent means shouldering all the expenses. not everybody is a pangilinan or a honasan. principles alone cant win an election not even in Norway or Sweden.

Is not fair, Is not it? That their leader have a better life abroad while they’re starving, dying fighting for something they believe. It doesn’t matter how you look at it. These people are fighting for something they believe until the end of time.

Because they knows if they’re not going to fight for something the believe, Nobody else going to fight for them. This is suppose to be. Do not give up! fighting, Because if you do. All these hard work for a better Philippines its just going to wasted. And you die, Nothing at all….And the next generation will be lost as well.

These people are fighting for over 35 year’s and counting. There should be accomplistment if any. If only we have a better Government running this country these people well not fight for something they believe. They’re not there to kill filipino people. Only give them the land that is belong to them. That’s all they want it. But our gov’t failure to solve that problem for over 35 year’s. I think its time for them to look at this problem and solve it. So that the Philippines can move forward for a better Philippines!!! Because this is one of the Problem facing our country.

Fr: Salina.

Gerry, In a way you have the point. Saan mag stop the same circle of corruption. But, If we give up! Tayo rin ang magdusa. I’m I right?

Getting rid of Marcos, After 20 year’s in Malacanyang Palace is the best thing happen to this country. But the people who take over didn’t do anything for better Philippines this is one of the reason why the philippines is not getting any better. We’re back in square one.

Ramos: He is not any better either there is so much corruption under his administration, And even until Gloria Arroyo, Take over these case of corruption its just getting worse because the current leader are doing the same thing. If not, Worse!

Estrada: They get rid of Erap because they were saying that he’s rubbing the country coffer. As the record show, He’s not guilty of any wrong doing.

Only a mere accusation that up to date they still don’t have any evidence against him. So what if he’s drunken, womanizer, college drop-up. If he’s doing he’s job he suppose too. What his love life got to do with anything else.

The reason most of filipino people want to get rid of Gloria Arroyo, Because we all can see what she’s doing to this country. Aside from that she keep lying to the filipino people. But, The mean reason is, She don’t have the mandate from the filipino people because she only stole her title from the duly elected President Joseph Estrada. And she stole it again from Fernando Poe, Jr. In May 10, 2004. Presidential election.

Getting rid of Gloria Arroyo, could be the best thing can happen to this country. Because with all the corruption under her bugos regime that’s only been swipe under the rug! We need a good leader. Not a leader who keep lying to her teeth just to make her look good.

If tuta ni Gloria Win this election its a sure thing all the corruption under her bugos regime well be swipe under the rug. And Hello, Cha, Cha,…..Its means she’ll be in power forever.

If this election between Erap/Gloria, I can assure you, Erap will mop her ugly face sa kangkunga! But this election is between Gloria Arroyo, And the filipino people. The people speak! get rid of her the sooner the better. Adios, Mrs. Pidal’s!

Gerry, D: You’re absulotely right we need to overhaul our current voting system, We need to overhaul the current corrupt gov’t. In order for us to prosfer.

The reason ang katiparan didn’t win this election not because they don’t have a good flatform. Its because the filipino people don’t know them. Imagine ang katiparan candidates has a high level of education.

They should start from lower level of politic. But they start from the top. There is saying that if you start from the top when you fail down, You’ll hit hard. Patay ka! this is what happen to them. They’re very smart but they didn’t use their brain properly.

Just to be honest we need a somebody like them. Imagine bumalik sila sa Philippines to run for office because of the love for the country. If they really want to help for a better Philippines they still can help even though they loss.

If each and everyone of us do our part to help our country for a better Philippines, We can do it. Even just a small way, Its goes a long way! But we can’t move forward if this bugos regime of Mrs. Pidal’s the one squatting in Malacanyang Palace. Because of all the corruption has been swipe under the rugs. Each time they got catch.

Gloria magic? Or is it kiss of death. HA, HA, HA, HA……Haay, naku! its about time somebody will pick them up in the cabbage patch field. Yes, It is true that some of filipino people ng bulagbulag lang kahit nakikita na nila sa harapan nila away pa nila magsalita. Kong sabagay, Its no use. Because Look what happen to those who speak out. They’re in jail if not they’re all dead.

And Yes, The reason TU are losing because they’re in the wrong side of the fence. If Gloria Arroyo, Don’t have nothing to hide for all the accusation that is hounding her she should never cover-up. But, She’s hell bent to just that. Because she knows if she don’t do that the whole truth will come out. Adios Pandak kong nagkataon.

Political parties doesn’t mean anything right now. Most of them do not even know what they are fighting for or if they are truly living up to the vision of their political parties. They only wanted to take advantage of the benefits that they would be receiving by joining these political parties and at the end of the day they are just thinking about themselves and not vision nor the welfare of the Filipino people. Siguro instead na debate lie detector test na lang lahat ng kakandidato then the other end would click the trigger of a gun pointed into their heads pag nagsinungaling that would be the end of their mission. Simple lang ang tanong “Nakahanda mo bang ialay ang iyong buhay sa taos pusong paglilingkod sa iyong bayan?”

NO!because Erap was the Godfather of GO.

It’s been six years now since Joseph Estrada was convicted but until now they can’t find a concrete evidence that he was guilty. E kung may matibay ba talaga na ebidensya e di dapat nuon pa nahatulan na!…Siya’y biktima lamang ng maling akusasyon sa kadahilanang maraming naiinggit sa kanya.ABA! Sino ba namang mag-aakala na ang isang 2nd year college drop out ay magiging presidente ng Pilipinas, at ito ay napakahirap tanggapin para sa mga taong diumanoy mga nakatapos ng matataas na antas ng pag-aaral…mga INSECURE!Sabi ni Joker Arroyo na siyang napakaingay noon ng kasagsagan ng impeachment trial”WE CANNOT HAVE A COUNTRY RUN BY A THIEF”…e yung nangyari nung Presidential elekyon nung 2004, ano yun?..wala bang magnanakaw dun?! at bakit tumahimik si Joker Arroyo?!..wala syang nagawa sa “Hello Garci”!
The previous election favored for GO was the best manifestation that people of the Republic of the Philippines are now analyzing the current situation that happened in the past, like the mass cheating in the 2004 Presidential Election, san kayo nagkita ng Proklamasyon na alas 3:00 ng madaling araw habang natutulog ang buong sambayanan?!Walang kamalay-malay si Juan dela Cruz.
si Garci ay nagtago, hindi mahanap ng mga kinauukulan subalit pagkalaban na ng nasa posisyon,wala pang ilang buwan,huli na!
ang pagpigil sa mga kawani ng pamahalaan sa pagtestigo sa senado ay patunay lamang na nagpapakita na may mabahong amoy na itinatago ang kasalukuyang administrasyon…Sa mga taong patuloy na naninindigan sa katotohanan upang ipaglaban ang sambayan, MABUHAY kayo sapagkat sa inyo nakasalalay ang kinabukasan ng masang Pilipino.

Kung gusto niyong alisin si GMA because she lied/cheated in the last elections, then ALL politicians should step down (except for a few good men) because ALL lied/cheated the country in one way or another with their empty promises.
Kaya yung mga Ang Kapatiran candidates give a glimmer of hope. I will support them should they run again.
Kung umaarangkada ngayon yung peso dahil sa OFW remittances, dati pa namang may OFW remittances, bakit ngayon lang siya umarangkada inspitte of our divisiveness? Kaya kung hindi tayo magiging divided, there would be more economic progress.
You say walang evidence kay Erap? It’s your word aganst Clarissa Ocampo.
TO WASTEDBRAIN
Minsan lang ako sasang-ayon kay Salina. Pero tama siya! You have no right to criticize the government if you yourself don’t do your duty as a citizen. Anong example ang pinapakita mo sa pamilya mo?
TO ALL
What is happening to us is a spillover of the Marcos dictatorship which I discussed extensively in my previous post on ‘Make Your Voice Heard’. In summary:
1. Constitution was amended during the Aquino regime, otherwise FPJ would not be qualified and there wouldn’t be this ‘Hello Garci’ scandal.
2. Divisiveness – we became too free so that Senators/Congressmen oppose for its own sake to gain media mileage and free publicity. Kaya malamang yung mga bagong nahalal na mga Senators ang magiging satsat lang nila impeachment and nothing else.
Although this may be late, analyze niyo na lang ng mabuti yung mga bagong Senators.

I don’t know if we are all hypocrite here o nag bubulag bulagan lang talaga tayo. Let’s admit the fact that they are all cheaters no matter which sides they are on. Lahat sila mandaraya not only in the administration side pati na rin sa opposition. First hindi naman talaga nyo alam kung ano ang true character ng binoto nio, nung congressman ba sila natanung nio ba kung hindi sila namili ng boto? natanong nio ba ang mga nakalaban nila kung bakit sila natalo? of course hindi nio alam yon, dahil ang alam nio kung sino ang panay ini interview sa tv o radyo iyon yung magagaling. iyon ang sikat sa inyo.

Salina, may tanong ako sa yo? noon bang nasangkot si erap sa plunder eh natuwa ka? Tinatanong mo kung ano ang nagawa ni GMA sa Pilipinas, ang tanong ko sa yo, Ilang daang milyon o bilyong piso ang kinurakot ni erap sa loob lamang ng 3 taon? Salina, tatlong taon. Na tour mo na ba ang boracay mansion? Ilang tao ang nawala sa panahon ni erap at ni ping? nakita na ba ang tao nag palabas ng video niya na nagsusugal? how about bobby dacer? emmanuel corbito? kilala mo ba sila? o baka naman may amnesia ka na? bakit hindi mo kaya basahin ang column ni tulfo, para malinawagan ka kung ano ba talaga silang tao.

Ang tao nga naman napakadaling makalimot?

About Trillianes, okay lang pala na mag overthrow ng gov’t. anytime they want to. o dahil sabi mo nga bogus si gloria.
You mean to say, Cory Aquino was also a bogus president kc mas marami siyang pinag daanang coup kumpara kay GMA. tama ba ako? It’s not the principle that their trying to promote, It’s their OWN PERSONAL INTEREST. and that’s the FACT.

Speaking of prinsipyo, hindi ko alam kung sino ang nag rush ng impeachment ni erap noon? sino kaya sa mga congressman yon? hindi ko rin alam kung sino ang umiyak noon ng hindi mabuksan ang second envelop? hindi ko rin alam kung sino ang senate president noon na nag proklama rin kay GMA at ng hindi makuhang vice president eh baliktaran ulit. Sino kaya ang mga may paninindigan na yon? dapat silang tularan kc may mga PRINSIPYO SILA.

If ERAP wasn’t ousted it would have been the same. It was just a matter of time.

It will all be the same for so long as majority of our people remain uneducated. Money will continue to determine winning and losing. And the capable ones like those in Kaptiran dont have a chance to win.

But first and foremost we must make the thieves and Government accountable by EXECUTING them. We are a forgiving people moreso that those we forgive continue to steal and steal more. And the others who join government are not afraid to steal. Lets execute one or two by BEHEADING in public. Believe me it will serve as a STRONG warning.

Getting rid of GMA is not the answer. We should have done it 3-4 years ago not at this time when 2010 is near. Were stuck with her until 2010. And why wasnt she ousted by the people’s protest? Was it because not ALL wanted her out?

Nobody has asked that question. Or is she a lesser evil than the others who might replace her?

Maybe we should ask that question.

I voted mostly for TU but I did not vote for anyone from GO. I want GMA to finish her term. The economy needs to recover and it is indeed recovering under her term. Say what you want about her but under her leadership, the economy continues to improve. We just have to be vigilant but stay out of EDSA. Another people power may destroy our country, or at least set us back again. I don’t believe in GO. Look who’s leading them. Look at their slogan. Plan Co Revolt! REVOLT na naman!!!?? Trillanes plans another impeachment. Is that all he has to offer? Cayetano, all talk but no substance. I hate them all.

To Salina :

I think we Cebuano is the most matured voters in the Philippines based on the last two national election results.

You just accusing the president without proof and also implying the people of Cebu as cheaters.
Lets see if the senators you voted will function for the good of the country not just dak…dak …or papogi. And the two rebels who have just given our country the bad image can make good laws not just criticized.
Kapit Pilipino kasi nagpaloko kayo sa mga wlang kwentang pulitiko lalo na ang GO.

Fr: Salina.

Gerry, In a way you have the point. Saan mag stop the same circle of corruption. But, If we give up! Tayo rin ang magdusa. I’m I right?

Getting rid of Marcos, After 20 year’s in Malacanyang Palace is the best thing happen to this country. But the people who take over didn’t do anything for better Philippines this is one of the reason why the philippines is not getting any better. We’re back in square one.

Frm: Gerry

Yes, we should stop and not give up. Thats why i am offering a solution: Make EXAMPLES of the crooks and corrupt. We cannot forever follow the same cycle of ousting a leader through people power and then voting another set of corrupt ones, so on and so forth. We have to do SOMETHING- radical if it may be. We have to make our leaders ACCOUNTABLE for their acts and deeds! We cannot forever be forgiving while our people starve, while our country deteriorates.

This election was an easy win for GO,all they did was GLORIA bashing and nothing else. Escodero did nothing for Sorsogon during its difficult time,instead he busy himself for Erap, so young yet TRAPO na.The GO vote, is a protest vote againts Gloria and not because of their qualifications.The GO stirred hatred with their never ending accusations and blue ribbon investigations “in aide of legislation”, nothing but a witch hunt and a smear campaign.they have divided the country and in the end they got rewarded for it.

To Salina:

Alam mo Salina, tatagalugin ko na para maintindihan mo kasi parang di mo naiintindihan ang English eh. Lagi mo sinasabi na bogus (yan ang tamang spelling ha, hindi bugos) president si PGMA at ninakaw niya lang ang pagiging presidente kay Erap. Alam mo ba ang Rule of Succession? o baka di mo alam yun. Nanalo si Arroyo bilang Bise Presidente at si Erap bilang Presidente. Nang matanggal si Erap dahil sa People Power, natural sino ba ang dapat maupo kundi ang Bise Presidente at sa kasong ito, si GMA. Ngayon pano mo masasabing ninakaw ang pagka Pangulo kung ang Saligang Batas ang nagsasabi na ang Bise Presidente ang susunod sa Pangulo? Pangalawa, si GMA ay nanalo bilang Bise Presidente, siya ay binoto ng mga taongbayan, ngayon pano mo sasabihin na bogus?

Ngayon, sa May 10 election, sabi mo ninakaw kay FPJ. Kahit sa survey,na ngayon ay pinapaniwalaan nyo, si GMA ay nanalo laban kay FPJ. Bakit hindi nyo matanggap na hindi talaga nanalo si FPJ? Get real, Salina. Sa ayaw at sa gusto mo, si GMA ang tunay nating pangulo at hindi sya isang bogus (tandaan mo ang spelling ha) president.

I VOTED for GO (Genuine Opposition) candidates not because of Erap. I think GO candidates are brilliant people and have their own minds. If anything (and this may sound brutal) they might just be riding on Erap’s popularity among the masses. That’s how things are in politics.
************
Fr: Salina.

Maybe you have the point that they’re riding on Erap, Pupolarity. But for what I can see opposition candidates are brilliant as you say. You made the right decision voting for them. Thank you!

Imagine tuta ni Gloria, win this election she’ll be in power forever. God forbid.

Dear Fr. Salina,

Am glad to see that you do not favor the results from the past presidency of marcos, cory, ramos most especially that of gloria.

however, may i put some points in your appreciation of idol erap? i believe its not a good excuse to let some known womanizer, gambler, coddler of illegal importers (knowingly or unknowingly), a drop-out, etc. handle the most important and highest position of our only country, even if you say he did his homework (although i have doubts). this will definitely reflect on our poor country. even if he is sincere (again, i have my doubts here), these lord of the drugs and hweteng are (highly) educated especially in their trade and with the main objective of doing you a bug favor and then holding you by your throat. we should be wary all the time of these politicians if we are to safeguard our lovely but dying country….if these type of politicians will continue to rule.

TO ALL VOTERS
Gaya nga ng postings ko to different blogs, ang kailangang gamitin ng mga botante ISIP (Platform/agenda) hindi PUSO (pro-Erap/anti-GMA).
TO EVERYONE-SO YOU MAY KNOW
Again, as I’ve posted of which I discussed extensively in my previous post in ‘Make Your Voice Heard’, let me just summarize the damages brought by the Marcos regime in our country
1. Disunity because now we are free to voice our opinions unlike during the Marcos era – in spite of this, our economy is growing.
2. Constitutional amendments done during the Aquino regime which gave rise to incompetent leaders – otherwise FPJ wouldn’t be qualified to run and there wouldn’t be this ‘Hello Garci’ controversy the opposition keeps on riding on to gain media mileage and free publicity.
These hamper the economic growth of the country. Just allow the President to continue her term and let our economy improve for I believe she is capable of handling 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 making wise judgments in the next election.
If you want GMA to step down because she cheated, then all politicians (except for a few good men of course) should step down because all cheated the country in one way or another with their empty promises.

Hello Salina? Nandyan ka pa ba? Sana mamulat kana sa katotohanan..walang nagawa yung GO kundi batikos. At si Erap,napapacute sa masa para kalimutan yung mga ginawa nya.

to: Salina
wow, you really are one-big-opposition-kind-of-thing.
Grow up for christ sake!
instead of whinning about GMA being a “BUGOS” (i guess you meant “BOGUS”) leader, why not shut your fingers up, and SEE the things with ur eyes, and LISTEN with ur ears?

comm’n dude, everybody has its bad side. NATURE/ENVIRONMENT makes a person that way. so, dont praise GO’s like GODS. ok? coz, sooner or later, they’re gonna be the person that they hate the most, at present. THEY”RE politicians after all.

if you want to understand a politician, think like a scientist. be NEUTRAL.
if you do that, you’ll find out, ALL of them are the same…-GREAT PRETENDERS, and NOT GREAT LEADERS.

in simple tagalog:
walang sinuman ang makakatulong sau, kundi sarili mo lang.

i dont mean to hurt the feelings of those who experience hunger, those who claimed “hindi namin nararamdaman ang PROGRESOng sinasabi nila” but lets face the fact, the PERSON i am today is a product of my past. i am simply saying, dont blame the government for your sufferings.
if a person wants change.. umpisahan nya sa saril nya.. MAGSIPAG sya, kung may DIYOS siya, magDASAL sya. kung isa siyang magulang, maging MODELO sya sa mga anak nya. nang sa ganun, e, guminhawa ang susunod na henerasyon ng pamilya nya.

remember, good foundation of life = good future. simpleng logic lang. walang personalan.

nakakalungkot isipin ung mga basurerong gnamit ng GO sa campaign ad nila. “ganito tayo noon” (image on the screen: batang basurero; caption: ????), “ganito tayo ngaun” (image on the screen: adult basurero; caption: year 2007)

ang tanong: anong ginawa ng basurerong un para umasenso ang buhay nya for the years that pasts? anong plano nya sa buhay nya?
those were the questions left unanswered/unshown in that campaign ad. no wonder, they’re driving these lower societies of our nation into madness. anong gnawa ni erap para sa mga “MASA” nya?

oh, and by the way, i am not PRO GMA nor PRO GO. i am simply a modern pinoy. LOGICAL, INNOVATIVE.. PATRIOT and OPEN MINDED.
peace.

Maybe for you it’s not but for the majority it was. Recent surveys say that most Filipinos prefer Erap (stealer of money) rather than GMA (stealer of the elections). That’s the reason all the GO’s candidates kissed Erap’s hand, of course, not only for popularity but for “financial assistance.” But be it may that position, I would disagree that the likes of Cayetano, Escudero, Trillanes, and Pimentel III will be more “brilliant” than the proven performance of Angara, Joker Arroyo, Recto, Mike Defensor, and Zubiri. Cayetano, not a single law had been passed; Escudero, just “co-authored” (sabit lang po) 2 laws; Trillanes, coup d’ etat (sounds power grabbing disguising as pro-people); Pimentel, not even his townsfolk believe him. See, these people made names just by political grandstanding, the method “trapos” are using. Only that the means differentiated from political speeches into podcast, guest in talk shows, and media speeches. Let’s not forget Lacson, who earned his cleverness from his teacher, Marcos. He would grab every opportunity to make press conferences to make stories and ride on issues, of course, just to make a fine and “meek” image to make it for the presidency. Just right now, he is currently riding the issue of “election cheating” (which is a popular issue, thanks for the headlines) presenting 5 witnesses just like what he did in the jueteng issue. He wouldn’t want to waste the opportunity since at current ranking he is no. 3, above Villar (since Legarda and Escudero appear no presidential ambitions at present). In his mind, 2010 is still 3 years from now. Lots of time to climb up. I hope Filipinos would not be victims of his craftiness. But Lacson? He couldn’t even contribute in constructing roads in Cavite Province but have the funds for political ads and media mileage.
Erap is successful in his hatred campaign vs. Arroyo but did it accomplish anything for Filipinos? I just hope people would realize this, that anti-Erap is neither equivalent to pro-GMA……, it’s PRO-FILIPINO.

Pian;
Yuo missed my point, what I have said is aside from jueteng, his vices that means BISYO womaniser, gambler, etc, but think of it, despite of these things he implement things that he knows to be true, (many to share). To use your phrase “let the one without sin cast the first stone” think about it and think about our pres ryt now. We don’t have to make exchanges of email in a negative way, its not good, its not healthy, and it can never help us, our country if we have to achieve changes in our government. The change must start from us, we have to unite as a people for the good and welfare of our country, we need to be un ited in that goal, otherwise we’ll just like a wind tossed and fro.
Please read the last part of my message and I concluded it that way, I don’t care who got elected as long as he/she will implement laws regardless of the personality involved. and in order to produce agood leader, we need to be united, and start looking forward for a good and bright future of our country.
thanks for youe response.

modern pinoy

Right attitude man. I am glad that there are pinoys like you.
If only common Filipinos would recall his Philippine history that since Marcos exile, the people are the one electing Presidents, Senators and Congressmen. If Erap affected the economy, it was the people who elected him to power, since he was Senator.
Nevertheless, Filipinos should not blame the government for his misfortunes. If he is poor, he chose to be one. Instead of getting education, he went out with his peers doing good stuffs. So right now he cannot land a job because he is not fit for the job. Why would I trust a sensitive job to one who has not finished a degree even high school? Education is very important. And being poor is not an excuse for not getting education because there are those who got it despite being poor.

You still don’t get it do you. This election is not between Erap/Gloria.
But between Gloria Arroyyo and the filipino people. The reason opposition senators are winning for a simply reason the filipino people had enough with her bullshit.

Further more if this election is between Erap/Gloria, They should just hold a snap election. I’ll guarantee you, Erap will mop Gloria Arroyo, Ugly face to kindon come!

Wow, didnt think my blog would generate so much comments.

well thanks for giving me a piece of your time and minds.

To Salina;

thanks for commending my message, though I’m already here in the u.s. I’m still thinking of our country, I thought of giving up, because of what isgoing on about the present situation that we have which is so corrupt and so insensitive about the will of the people and want to stay in power to served their own bested interests.
based on the subject matter pro-glo, pro-erap we can’t avoid to compare them, but I prefer the latter because of his accomplishment on his three year and would like to take note that he was ousted because of jueteng scandal when lawmakers walkout of that impeachment trial which is by the way condemned by tha majority of the people (masses) but was overpowered by the powerful and rich so we have that edsa2. and not of the corruption or plunder they are accusing of him which up to now they produce nothing, and I doubt if there is any, because if he’s doing something like that he would not dare to investigate the past administration of ramos of corruption, and that the start of erap downfall and that jueteng is used to substantiate their allegation. erap has riches before he became pres unlike gloria if i am not mistaken only declare 3M pesos worth of asssets when she run for vice pres and was only convinced to run by ramos because they know that erap will win whoever is the opponent and during that time i guessed thats the part of plan if erap is elected they will used people power and that is what happened and gloria took over. after marcos, cory edsa1), erap is the only duly elected by the people, not tainted with any fraud, cheating or anomalies but was ousted by few powerful men of our country. Ngayon, Sino nasusunod sa bansa natin? the sovereignity of the people or the powerful ones?
mahaba na, Think about it for now, and we are not supposed to be pro erap or gloria, but we need to be united and vigilant to produce a good leader that eventually lead us for good. We are ought to be pro-people, pro-country and not on the personality of politician that we have right now.

TO ORLY
It’s good though that you’re calling for unity for I believe that’s what we all need. What struck me though was when you said Erap is better than Gloria. Everyone commits mistake but to a different degree. Because Erap’s vices would certainly reflect on his person. Being a womanizer for one means that he lied/cheated his wife, so he also lied to God.

To Pian,

It’s not good to compare the two but given the subject matter I prefer erap than gloria, which is not what i treally wanted to imply but the lattest part of my message. Since you don’t respect my opinion, it’s ok, but to tell you why erap became pres despite the fact that it is a given thing, his being a womaniser, lasengo, sugarol, etc, bakit sya nahalal na pangulo? gayung nung 98 pres campaign ibinato na sa kanya lahat yan all dirty tactics pero nahalal pa rin sya? di mo ba natanong sayo na bakit? To tell you the people want change, ang sabi sabi nun kung maalala mo, yung pres b4 him matatalino pero san dinala bansa natin? yung sinundan nya bankrupt ang kaban ng bayan ng umalis at yung palitan ng peso tumaas from 27 to 40+ bilang isang negosyante na nagbabayad ng buwis, malaki naging epekto sa mga negosyante. Now, kumandidato sya kalaban nya Devenecia remember behest loans and others, ang hirap satin si erap lang nakikita natin eh nakakulong na nga yung tao, alam mo kung nagnakaw sa kaban ng bayan si erap tsak dami kaso idagdag pero meron Ba? Ngayon pinalitan sya ni gloria dahil sa alegasyon sa juetng? yung pambabaero, sugarol wala kinalaman yun sa impeachment, Ngayon, nung naupo si gloria nahinto ba jueteng? Di mo ba naisip kung sino ngayun tumatanggap ng payola ng juetng? yung asset ni gloria gano itinaas bago sya maupo kumpara sa ngayun? Si erap nandaya ba sa eleksyon? remeber oposisyon sya against the admin bet who has all the resources and means, theres so many things to ask and say, eventhough i have PLENTY, just think about it and answer honestly who is better between the two. But whoever you think is better I will respect.
Now, ano mapapala natin kung pagtatalunan natin sila eh sa palagay mo ba iniintindi tayo ng mga yan? kaya nga ang sinasabi ko ay magkaisa tayo mga tao, mga mamamayan ng bansa natin na humanap ng talaga pagbabago, at ito magsisimula satin, habang pingatatalunan natin sila di tayo susulong at gusto nila at ng sila patuloy na maghari sa bansa natin, ito ba gusto natin? sana naman wag, let us all join hands in searching for agood leader that will heal all the wounds created by these politicians, mahirap pero di imposible kung magkakaisa tayo mga pinoy.

TO ORLY
I believe that Erap was voted by the masses primarily because of his popularity as an actor especially when he plays pro-poor roles.

of course when you say GO it means ERAP, who are the poeple behind the GO organization? mostly are ERAP and FPJ boys

i realy hoped before the campaign started that there would be a 3rd force (NP/LP) but it didnt materialize, maybe becoz of financial constraints, we all know how expensive to run a national campaign

majority of my votes went to TU, only CHIZ got my vote from the GO camp, i will never vote for LEGARDA coz i believe that she an epitomy an opportunist politician, i couild have voted for AQUINO but it makes me sick that he’s with the ERAP camp, i also voted for pangilinan bcoz i believe what he stood for, he didnt join neither the GMA or ERAP camp

i just hope that LEGARDA wont be the next president!!!!!!

Hello everybody.Why are you bickering about our leaders? We are the one who put them in their post , if ever they are there because of cheating, then we could not do anything more.They are already in power. All we are to do is to help them make our country a better one to live in. Stop comparing the 2 leaders of our nation, for i still believe Erap had once become a President of the Philippines and so with Arroyo. And thats a history that you cannot erase anymore not unless you are living in a world of hypocrisy .If we people of this nation ,rich and poor had a compassionate heart, a give and take attitude, an industrious one, a time conscious people , not a riotous living,for sure this nation can be great again. Now , election has done and that what we are supposed to do is to start thinking what we can contribute for the betterment of our beautiful country Philippines.Let us make our country a more beautiful with the help of our newly elected officials of our country.Let’s stop being greedy. MABUHAY NA MULI ANG PILIPINAS.

Yes! If you compare Erap, To Gloria Lavandera. Erap is a better person compare to her. Even though there is lots of people were saying that he’s a drunken womanizer, Glambler, Colleges drop out. Among other thing. Remember one thing, Erap, Run as mayor, He win. He run for vice President, He win. He run for President, He won also. In fact he mop their ugly face to kangkonga.

Just check San Juan where Erap reside the people in San juan is better off compare to other area. And I can attest to that. Is not only that Erap, Only in the office 30 months is not enough to do his job he suppose too.

But Gloria Arroyo, Has been squatting in malacanyang palace for almost seven years. Look what you’re getting. There is more filipino people are starving. Either you admitted it or not. And the only reason why the Philippines economy is booming not because of her good governance but because of the money remmittance the OFW are sending back home.

Even that. The Philippines economy is shaky! And if you don’t believe me, Go ahead and tell Gloria Arroyo, To tell all the OFW none OFW not to send anymore money to the Philippines just to probe the point.

I’ll guarantee you, When that happen the Philippines economy surely going down in history. Should I say, The gutter!

..Recent surveys say that most Filipinos prefer Erap (stealer of money) rather than GMA (stealer of the elections). That’s the reason all the GO’s candidates kissed Erap’s hand, of course, not only for popularity but for “financial assistance.”

The reason people choice Erap, Because his, Drunken, Womanizer, Gambler, College drop out. He, He, He.

Is that what you’re trying to say? all I can tell you is, The reason people prefer Erap, Because his a better person compare to Mrs. Pidal.

I guess you’re very lucky voting for her, Is not only that she stole her title, But she also robbing the gov’t coffer. You must have a piece of the action. Like they say, Two is better then one! She have them both.

kung me prinsipyo ang mga GO candidates they should have run independent! kung ibinoto nyo sila, sayang lang boto nyo…magiging trapo lang ang mga iyan!

between Erap and Gloria, ke Gloria na ako! nandaya man sya (eh gawain naman ng karamihan ng politiko yan eh) ginagawa naman nya ng maayos ang trabaho nya bilang Presidente.

It such a pity that some people want to limit our choices to two: ERAP or GMA. For God (and country’s) sake, let’s forget about Erap as GMA’s term is about to end. There are others who are qualified. Erap again after GMA? God help our country!

HELP! I wrote another post but can’t publish it. There is no publish button on the page. Help!!!!

I’d Rather take Erap, Side. Atleast Erap, Didn’t lie about being drunken, Gambler, womanizer, Collge drop out.

But Gloria Arroyo, Is not only that she keep lying to the filipino people she’s also keep robbing the country coffer. I’ll say, DITCH HER OUT. SHE DON’T DESERVE TO SET IN MALACANYANG PALACE A MINUTE LONGER. ITS OVER DUE. KICK HER ASS OUT.

GO bastards! ERAP is on the jail,ticking and waiting to be released.

PLEASE SAVE THE MOTHER PHILIPPINES!

GO candidates Legarda,Escudero and the entire winners of go are absolutely cheaters.!!!!!!
