Why reward Trillanes?

06/07/07

Posted under Antonio Trillanes, Feedback

TRILLANES would not even win as barangay chairman before Oakwood.

Yes, the Philippine electorate rewarded Lt. Senior Grade Antonio Trillanes IV for causing untold suffering to the people by bringing down the economy and wreaking havoc on the business community in co-masterminding the infamous Oakwood mutiny.

He used this popularity to shortcut his way to the political arena. Why can’t he do a Lacson and a Biazon who took the long road and got out of service and ran for public office on the merits of their accomplishments? Is he too ambitious and could not wait for his turn? Let’s see if he will turn out to be like the gentlemen I mentioned or will he be like Gringo who was rewarded again after warming his seat in a forgettable stint in the Senate.

Buddy Jose: Infair naman yon sinasabi mo. Why don’t you give him a chance to prove himself to the filipino people.

The reason the filipino people vote for him because they believe what he is fighting for:

Further more Capt. Trillanes, Is the voice of many who can’t speak for themselves thats why he won in the senate. But, For my information the reason the comelec did not declare him yet even though he’s votes is more than enough to land him secure in number 11 because the malacanyang palace want the comelec to hold special election in MAGUINDANAO so that he won’t be declare Senator elect in 14 congress.

And if that happen even though he loss this election the filipino people who voted for him speak for itself. IT A SLAP TO GLORIA ARROYO, UGLY FACE!

And I’m one of those people who is slapping Gloria Arroyo, Ugly face! My entire family and most of people in my barrio voted for him and the entire opposition.



Roland Gallinera

Only in the Philippines. Goes to show how “educated” our pinoy voters are. In order to be elected as a senator, one has to commit crimes, stage a coup, be friends with drug lords, be a “respected” actor, etc. In short, be famous or “infamous”, and you’ll be a senator. These people know that pinoys are sick of the way things are no matter who the president is, and they fan the flames by grandstanding in public and attacking the current administration. Take Peter Allan Cayetano, people wouldn’t have recalled his name if he didn’t attack Mike Arroyo with those bank accounts… Trillanes, on the other hand did another Honasan, and thanks to the media, became a symbol of protest. Notwithstanding his “capability”… these coup adventurists are the reason why I moved out of the country in the first place…. The first coup by Honasan, left me without any job offers, considering that a week before the coup, there were lots of jobs for me back then… After the bloody coup (where Noynoy was also shot by Honasan’s men - What’s up with Noynoy, cavorting with the enemy??? - that’s another story btw) , jobs vanished, companies moved out of the phils., and people reward him by electing him senator… all the while boasting that “he is the saviour” etc…

Only in the Philippines, where criminals facing jail time, can run for office (due to our lengthy appeals system, they are not disqualified for office yet), get special treatment, and eventually, grabs a “get-out-of-jail” card…

I think the majority of filipino electorate are ignorant of the issues. Most of the fililpino voters don’t read newspapers because of the prohibitive costs of newspapers.I am a professional, but when i was living in the Ph, i could not afford the prices of newspapers which was P10 to P14 for a reputable newspaper during that time. Imagine spending this amount everyday?How much more today? True, they may have tv’s or radios at home but such is reserved for soap operas, dramas, and shows whenever they have time to do so. They don’t listen to political issues and even hardly know the candidates, so they just go for the candidate whose name is familiar to them. Add to that the small favors or amount that these politicians dangle in front of the them.



simple pinoy

There are only two reasons why Trillanes won. First: There was strong undercurrent of protest against the Administration that borrowing the kanto parlance” kahit aso ang kalaban ng kandidato ni Gloria eh mananalo.” This happened before during the time of Cory Aquino. The people’s protest vote against the remnants of the Marcos regime saw 22 of Cory’s anointed senatorial candidates winning and only Erap and Enrile from the Grand Alliance for Democracy (the opposition at that time) surviving. In fact, Enrile almost did not make it and Erap was in the last eight positions. Erap won not because he was extremely popular but because of sympathy votes. Nene Pimentel as DILG Secretary removed him as Mayor of San Juan and there was mini-people power in front of the municipal hall every day. The sight of pro-Erap crowd being flashed on the prime time newscasts reverberated throughout the land and has given Erap media mileage for months. Filipinos love the underdog and this Erap exploited to the hilt and he was extremely good at playing the oppressed role and the DILG as the villain.

The second: Trillanes is good looking (macho in the gay lingo). In the Oakwood mutiny, he was not the real brain but someone else. He was camera friendly and elolquent so the next thing we saw was Trillanes facing the cameras always in behalf of his comrades. In fact, just to dramatize how strong his machismo is; there immediately appeared a sex starlet who assumed a Trillanes surname.

The Filipino people are just suckers for good looking candidates. The same trait catapulted Gringo to the Senate the first time. He was oozing with machismo that the female population just can’t have enough of him. History just repeats itself.

Whether Trillanes will be a good senator is the big question. Where on earth can you find a senator announcing that he will work for the impeachment of GMA. He should be taught the basics of law making first so he will understand his role during the impeachment. He should be reminded that in impeachment, a senator sits as a jury and not a prosecutor. Oh well, that’s what you get if you plunge into a situation you least prepared.

To the question: Why reward Trillanes? Well, Filipinos are just masochists. We just don’t have the proper sense of right and wrong. We are agitated by the supposed sins of GMA but the brazen crime that Trillanes and company committed that brought the country to its knees is glossed over and now you see him probably as senator elect. And the same people who voted for him and others like him expect the country to progress? God must have cursed the country named Philippines.

Personally, I couldn’t care less whether the country will again retrogress because of the presence of destructive oppositionists in the Senate. I have good salary in foreign currency and I don’t stay there much of my time. Let the people who voted for the coup plotters and grandstanders suffer. They deserve all the hunger in the country. They never learn so let them suffer for their stupidity.

Trillanes was NOT being a patriot by staging Oakwood, neither is he being one now by making his agenda as senator to bring down GMA and destabilize the govt and economy and bring us back from whatever gains we have made in the last few years. The world is not black and white so he and other people who have their high hats on should stop being an idealist and work for actual, tangible results. Does he have anything better to propose or implement which can bring our country more competetive internationally? It’s a global economy now, whether he likes it or not, even if he tries to bury his head in the sand. So whatever portrayal of the Phils. he creates by what he does in govt, like for example an impeachment trial, he destroys or builds the Phils. He creates or eliminates investors/businesses/jobs. He increases/lowers unemployment. He improves/worsens poverty of the Phils. So people like him should think twice. If everyone always thinks he can do better and just sets out to discredit whoever’s in office, we’ll just be a country in a vicious cycle of bright ideas and good intentions with ZERO results going nowhere.



drhenry4

As for now, Trillanes appears to be a type of an aggressive young warrior. What drives him to fight Arroyo appears to be not really based on anti-graft spirit. Taking sides with Erap makes him more to appear as hypocrite. If he really is against corruption, he instead would have run as an independent. Or maybe he is just obsessed to fight Arroyo which blinded his judgment. Then his anti-corruption stance is dubious.

He is a novice in politics as shown by his agenda. His character as a soldier, determined to finish his mission, is a good trait but his aim may be short-sighted. After impeaching Arroyo, then what is next for him? His objectives of “cleansing” corruption in the whole government? This young Senator might get surprised that even in the institution where he is elected, corruption is rampant. Aside from the Php 35,000 monthly allowance, PDAF of Php 200 Million, gas allowance, clothing allowance, food allowance, office allowance, staff allowance, etc. endless allowances. (Are you surprised? Do you think the Senate is a righteous place as portrayed by media?) PDAF (pork barrel) alone is tainted with corruption.

Many have fought corruption since Pres. Elpidio Qurino’s time until we had the 1986 and 2001 EDSA’s but what was the outcome? Corruption is still rampant. NAPOCOR, DPWH, DOH, DOTC, DTI, BIR, COMELEC, DND, PAGCOR are among the many government institutions that corruption is known, only for a few though. That was why Erap had an easy management of the government. With a large bureaucracy as the Philippines, it would only be a dream for Trillanes to attain total eradication of graft and corruption. (Not unless ALL the people in the government starting from an EMPLOYEE will have reforms, which is very near to impossibility.)

He has the Katipunero mind of Bonifacio, who, unknown to many, had not won any revolution. He had a different view with Rizal, whose aim was reformation, first of the masses then the leaders like Bonifacio. The objectives of Rizal were followed by the Katipuneros of Cavite of whom Aguinaldo was the leader.

Trillanes won the hearts of the many aggressive young voters. But these young ones, idealistic as they may be, must search within Trillanes because politics in reality is just a façade of what a politician is up to. His signs of impatience and intemperance are not a good symptom of a leader supposed to be with integrity. And from the start then, he might not be really for genuine change since his first steps did not show it.

Then the question, “Why reward Trillanes?”



TraderPinoy

“Trillanes had the guts to stand up and say no to an abusive and bogus president. Do you have that Mr. Buddy Jose?”

he is as dirty as the dirty politicians in our country….pathetic….he is a criminal, staged a mutiny who endangered lives of individuals, ruin the economy etc….

I wonder if you will react the same way if it turned bloody and one of your loved ones was killled….

Same thing with that journalist who wrote that this guy who took hostage kids is a hero….I wonder if his son/daughter was inside on that bus that same day…. i wonder if he can still write the same way..

People are full of crap nowadays…

only in the Philippines…..

Tiyay, Rose: Why don’t you give Capt. Trillanes, A chance to prove himself to the filipino people before you judges him.

Look where Gloria Arroyo, Bring the Philippines. If is not to the gutter. What booming economy are you talking about. her pad so call economy? Its a joke!
If its true that the economy is booming why is it there is more filipino people are starving. How can you justify that. Aber!
These so call 6.9% she’s bragging about is a temporary situation. Lets see whats the so call booming economy of her in the next three month.
I’ll guarantee you, We all find out soon enough. That I’m not lying. I’m just telling the truth.

Thanks to her she just put the Philippines in the map of number one corrupt in asia. Number two human right violation in the world. Do you know what that means? I guess not. Only stupid cannot understand that.



pinoy

Ed, you are right. Trillanes didn’t get rewards. It was a voice out anti corruption. I think Filipinos are tired of fighting the corruption by themselves and getting killed, Trillanes came out of nowhere and stood out and ready to die for them, that’s what filipinos really like to see. Ninoy sacrificed his life for all filipinos, and its been a while now. Corruptions and political killings was gone for sometime, and it came back strong with Erap ( no political killings) then GMA (with a lot of killings) like marcos, they intimidate the people. People can easily intimidated and bribe with money or promotions, because a lot of Filipinos are poor and the gap between median, pverty level and the rich are so wide. Rich Filipinos are Wealthy, poor Filipinos got nothing at all. We have to patch the gap, it is kinda hard but it’s one of the way to get there. You may think otherwise but, here in the US Ordinary people can do what wealthy people does. People doesn’t have to do extra ordinary to go to Disney land, for example, or eat grapes, oranges,steak, etc. You can feel the equality of human rights. The feelings of freedom in all aspects of life. If you need help call a cops they’ll help you, they dont care if you got a job or not. Whereas in the Philippines, somebody’s dad has to help his “kumpare” to be able to have extra money. What i’m trying to say is bring up the poor people to a comfortable level, If they’re lazy they’ll be left out. Prioritise these people, dont feel jealous if other Filipinos are making more money than you. Trillanes’s advocacy is on the right track. I can’t wait for this young man to start leading our Country, not in the near future, let him get his feet wet, and soon we’ll find out what he is really all about. To all Filipinos in or out of the country don’t lose hope, give your help in anyway, invest in our country, Korea did it, japan did it, Taiwan, China, and now India is getting Industrialized, I may not be able to see it in my lifetime but I’ll be very proud.

If Capt. Trillanes, Is a coup plotter, Can you tell me, What Gloria Arroyo, Did? Did she not do the same thing? The only different is, She succeeded on her coup d’tat. Against the duly elected President Joseph Estrada. She’s the one should be in jail.

Only in the Philippines that the crooks the one can run the country! If this is not a corrupt justice system I don’t know what is….Only in the Philippines.!

Excuse me sir! why did not you include Gloria Arroyo, Since she’s the biggest crooks. Why only the people you don’t like. You’re not being fair. This is one of the reason why the Philippines could never get out from under. Because people who’s only blaming the people they do not like. The people who’s doing the evil thing can sit in malacanyang palace because they have the support of the crooks like themselves.



marco

Trillanes indeed deserved the supoort of the people. He stood strong, in circumstances nobody dared. There seems to be something wrong with people who accussed Trillanes of wrong doing. Is it wrong to call the currupt and decietful president with its allies to step off? This election, few might have realized, but the majority of the AFP soldiers and officers gave a strong support to Trillanes, who stood for thier cause. “Getting rid” of the CURRIPT “commander-in chief” and the “generals” who PIMPS thier lowly subordinates. Let all the voice of lowly soldiers be heard thru Trillanes.



rodama

That’s how dumb Filipino voters are!!! Philippine election has always been a circus. Let’s be honest with ourselves, how many out of 10 government officials are dishonest?
Answer: 11 out of 10!



Kabayan

Trillanes’ Senate position given to him by the Filipinos is not as much as a reward to him but rather a check and balance to neutralize or defeat Gloria’s shenanigans now and in the future.



Diego K. Guerrero

The political victory of ex- Navy Lt. Antonio Trillanes IV is a repudiation of morally bankrupt Arroyo regime. The more than 10 million voters supported his anti-corruption advocacy and protest vote against GMA’s anti-people policies. Majority of the Filipino people based on surveys want the ouster of bogus President Gloria Arroyo whether via military intervention, resignation or people’s uprising. The victory of the Genuine Opposition-UNO in the senate race is no confidence vote against Gloria Arroyo and her corrupt government. Finally, the ultimate reward will be the prosecution and conviction of Jose Pidal and Gloria for their crimes against the Filipino people.



Chuck

What? Im sure you voted for him. You know what its really really sad Filipinos know squat about what people in Congress should be doing. The start of this session is doomed from the get go - nothing will be passed for obvious reasons - oh wait - sorry, people dont get it - so it cant be obvious. I really thought there was hope………Trillanes? what a joke. We vote for these people - we deserve out fate.



Jijimi

I voted for Trillanes because he represents hope for the country. I am rewarding him for his courage to put his life on the line to shock the system that is still full of political clowns. Yes we are willing to go with Trillanes if that’s what it takes. The people have spoken. No amount of questioning the wisdom of our vote will change the fact that Trillanes will be a Senator of the Republic. So stand back and let him continue his fight.



Erwin

People always miss the point. Trillanes is there because 10 million of us want to tell this government that this country needs a voice every now and then, someone to voice our anger with the state of governance in this country. That it is our hope that all regardless of what political fence they are in should be made accountable to the havoc they have made on our lives by their stealing and corruption. He is only one of our voices which we desperately want to get accross those people who until now are betrayed by those who lead them but do not really care for them. We, the 10 million of us who voted for him would like to tell this country that we would wish that those who are corrupt must be tried and convicted for their wrongs. Those people who think otherwise should examine what they want because this is what we want. Hope there are more Trillanes out there. God help us.



Bindoy

Is there anyone of you who knows Mr. Trillanes personally? This man was elected by the Filipino people through the real democratic way, in a honest election. Not the so-called People Power way and without Garci. So I think it’s unfair to judge him right away. Judging him means judging the 10 million Filipinos who voted for him. I honestly believe he won, not because of whatever stunts he did before, not because of good looks but because the Filipino people were looking for somebody who can stand-up against a questionable president and lunatic justice secretary. The GO dominated the senate election not because they were identified with Erap but because the ordinary Filipino people who live by the day saw hope in them. If Michael Defensor or Recto went independent, or even GO. they could have won. They lost because they were identified with a questionable president. I would rather see a fresh face, untested but has a potential than a TRAPO to sit in the senate .

The next elections will be interesting: More Military men running for government, more Priests, Pastors running for government.

God help the Philippines!

Why reward Trillanes?
06/07/07
Posted under Feedback, Antonio Trillanes
TRILLANES would not even win as barangay chairman before Oakwood.

Yes, the Philippine electorate rewarded Lt. Senior Grade Antonio Trillanes IV for causing untold suffering to the people by bringing down the economy and wreaking havoc on the business community in co-masterminding the infamous Oakwood mutiny.

He used this popularity to shortcut his way to the political arena. Why can’t he do a Lacson and a Biazon who took the long road and got out of service and ran for public office on the merits of their accomplishments? Is he too ambitious and could not wait for his turn? Let’s see if he will turn out to be like the gentlemen I mentioned or will he be like Gringo who was rewarded again after warming his seat in a forgettable stint in the Senate.

If getting rotten in jail is a reward. You better think again! Not atleast you don’t know the meaning of it. Capt. Trillanes, Won this election simply because he speak from the heart. And he represent the people who cannot speak for themselves.

Just to let you know that the votes for Capt. Trillanes, Is a protest votes. Against the bugos regime of Gloria Arroyo.
Not alteast you don’t know that. WE JUST HAD A PEOPLE POWER VOTES!
against the bugos President of cebu. Its time to overhaul the entire corrupt government office’s. Start from Gloria Arroyo. Its overdue! DITCH HER OUT.

SALINA:
Excuse me sir! why did not you include Gloria Arroyo, Since she’s the biggest crooks. Why only the people you don’t like. You’re not being fair. This is one of the reason why the Philippines could never get out from under. Because people who’s only blaming the people they do not like. The people who’s doing the evil thing can sit in malacanyang palace because they have the support of the crooks like themselves.

Fr Tonio:
Salina, don’t hit yourself. Don’t tell people not to blame those they do not like because you have been doing it across all posts.

If you insist that GMA is a bogus president, simply because of a corrupted “Garci” tape that will not stand in court (and for which no final resolution in the legislative has been made, despite grandstanding of both congressmen and senators, squezzing to the last drop of blood whatever publicity the issue can generate), why dont you people be the one to work for its final resolution. Let’s bring GMA down with the Garci tape, with all proper evidence and in the proper courts. Tama na ang basta pag-aakusa na lang.

i don’t think trillanes is showing us his true colors of a clean image as compared to cleansing the arroyo administration by impeacment. because he himself aligned with a “more” corrupt leader in the person of erap. at his young age i found him a hypocrite. he really has ambition. and he will fulfill that ambition at whatever cost. now it can be told that the main reason why he staged that infamous oakwood mutiny is to let himself known and be with people he is accusing of. why? is the senate that clean? and how clean was he when he was a soldier? so young and yet so hypocrite?



michael De Guzman

Hindi natin dapat sisihin ang ating mga kababayan na bomoto kay LtSG Trillanes. Tayo ay dapat magpunyagi na mayroon tayong kakayahan na pumili at maghalal ng sino mang pinuno natin sa senado. Mayroong mga bansa sa ibang bahagi ng mundo na walang kakayahan na pumili ng naaayon sa kanilang kalooban.

Ang hindi lang maabot ng aking isipan ay kung bakit nananalo pa rin ang mga taong nagpapasimuno ng mga kaguluhan na nagtatangkang iluklok muli tayo sa kangkungan, na ginagawang paraan ang pulitika para matakasan ang kulungan.

Ang ating bansa ay isang katatawanan sa mundo.

Saan mo ba makikita, na upang mailigtas ang sarili sa pagtataksil sa bansa, maging pulitiko na lamang at sa impluwensiya at yaman ay magpakasasa? Itago na lamang sa intensyon na “gagawin para sa prinsipyo at sa bansa”.

Balang araw susundan ko ang kanilang mga yapak. Sasapi ako sa kontra-gobyerno ma mayroong rebolusyunaryong adhikain. Kapag nanalo kami sa “coup”, bayani ako . Kapag natalo kami sa “coup”, kakandidato ako at siguradong mananalo ako dahil hindi popular ang administrasyon na kalaban ko.

Kawawa naman ang mga Pilipino! Sa kangkungan na naman tayo.

matutulog lang yan si trillanes sa senado, kagaya ni kuya gringo. pustahan tayo!

I’m fed up with these protest votes claim. There never was a so called protest votes. There are more non-thinking votes that intelligent votes. Thinking voters who voted for Trillanes had a reason and the rest had none. Anyone who thinks that Filipinos are now smart voters belongs to the opposition and they are fantasizing. The administration knew that voters are still stupid, but they never expected them to be that dumb. Secret, all you need is one million morons to get Arroyo out of office. Trillanes had 12 million. You do the math. Honasan got more votes than Trillanes. What does that tell you? The media will soon have a field day with Trillanes for his big mouth. This person is one of the dumbest I have ever heard. Hey Trillanes, GDP does not include the poor. GDP = consumption + investment + (government spending) + (exports − imports) Where is the poor again?



Tarsier

What hope can we expect from Trillanes. What can he do in the senate? Today even Miriam Santiago and Nene Pimentel cannot produce good bills despite her skills and training. Trillanes will just be like Honasan who stayed in the senate with zero accomplishment. Idolizing them only invites more military men to take up adventurism. Instead of discipline, there will be instability in the military and in our country.

Well, I will just say good luck to Trillanes and those who voted for him. Let’s see what the senate will be with these weird people joining the fray.



Don

The vote for trillanes is a vote against the corruption in the entire country. In him people see an honest individual - someone who is willing to risk everything to correct what must be corrected.

Isn’t that simple?

Why reward Trillanes.

As a voter, we also look at their educational accomplishment. Aside to that is their principles. He simply enunciate all wrong doing of his superior and for that he stage a mutiny.

To be a successful senator, he can consult or hire a group of people to research on the Laws he want to make. just like what every other senators are doing. I think even Miriam Defensor couldnt do it all by herself.

We can all help the Senator elect. we can act together, warn them and be vigilance



noel

Good am ,
Pls. let’s not judge the person right now. Let’s see in the next 6 yrs. Anyway i think the more than 10 million people who voted for him will be on guard. To me personnally i am seeing in him as a PMA-er that the doctrine he has deep inside will drive him to become a good senator and i know senator trillanes will repay back to the more than 10 million filipinos who supported him. God Bless us !



Ms. Ott

Trillanes won because more number of Filipinos voted for him than the one he beats…down to the 12th slots. He did not violate the constitution. He did not concocted with a double-cara senator friend of Estrada, who was Angara. And Trillanes, based on his record and what he told the Filipinos he will do, got the people’s permission to speak up accordingly, based on why he was elected. The Filipinos have enough of this convoluted bogus squatter in the Malacanang whose deception goes on unabetted and without shame. All those who are benefitting from her power grab, of course, will fight tooth and nail to keep her in Malacanang, like the prostituted justices, the politicized military generals, and her political party and their cronies. Thank the Lord, Trillanes Won. Thank the Lord almost all the GO senators won. And now we will have to pray hard so that this De Venecia will not succeed in destroying the only government that allows direct participation of the people in governing themselves. Mabuhay si Trillanes!!!



pao

All I know is that we are in a mess till 2010.

Nothing will ever gets done since all these “elected” senators will be very busy to know if they could be elected as “President”.

By the way, if PGMA is a crook, then people should start collecting evidences and have a case ready by 2010. Let the judicial system work for us.

Then, the we will be famous again, we will have a world record of having two ex-presidents in jail.



The Boss

Hindi ba may kasabihan tayo na ang boses ng tao ay siyang boses ng Diyos.Si Trillanes ay nanalo sa malinis na paraan(kung hindi dadayain).May dahilan kung bakit siya ibinoto ng milyung milyung Pilipino.Kaya huwag nating husgahan kaagad kung ano ang magagawa niya.

immatue filipino voters… we vote for pityness, popularity and underdog few people cares about family values ,dignity ,

Why reward trillanes, I voted for him because I believe that a vote for him is a vote against a fake president. I rather have him in the senate than arroyos dogs like pichay, zubiri or defensor who’se priority is to abolish senate and shift us to a parliamentary form of goverment thus removing our rights to vote for the highest official of the country.

Gary K. Lamo

The tendency for democracy placed on lazy, unthinking people is for it to put mediocrity in power. Democracy can also be a potent weapon for crooks to invoke — to propagate corruption. Democracy, where everybody has a say about a lot of issues, but not really much substantial to say, and lacking structure, is an invitation in chaos, drowning the real issues to focus on and letting the bad candidates get away with the real deal.
The Philippines has democracy in all three contexts. And what do we have as a result? An incompetent, corrupt president. At least two presidents who won by the counting, not by the actual vote. And a crop of elected senators and local officials more than three-fourths of them have contributed to the ruin of the country. Hello, Pilipinas.



Jom

I just stumbled on this website and read all postings. My golly, many posters here have horrible English! Starting with ED, Salina and others, your grammar stinks. Mag Tagalog na lang kayo.

By the way we in Pampanga (GMA’s home province) voted out 2 canditates of Gloria. We also voted Trillanes to 22nd place, Gringo to 21stplace. The topnother was got something like 380,00 and Trillanes and Gringo got only about 50,000. What a thrashing!! So it cannot be said that we are pro-Gloria since we rejected her candidates.
Trillanes is really the biggest hypocrite.. He is against corruption??? Why is he with Erap?? Pray tell me.
Protest votes? I don’t think so. Why did we not vote Sonio Roco who is also oppositionist, but without the sins of Trillanes?
Granting that GMA is bad, why elect Trillanes, an ambitious trouble maker, hostage taker (he blackmailed the government by taking Oakwood as hostage), immature (he doesn’t know the role of a senator - he threatens to impeach GMA when is is supposed to be a senator-judge in an impeachment proceeding), a coward (after doing Oakwood and failed, he backpedalled and said they are only for reforms, and if I remember correctly, his group kind of apologize for what they did. If you are courageous, you won’t backpedal even if put to death.

To the guy who said we deserve what we get here in the Philippines, I partially agree. What about those who don’t deserve Trillanes but were outvoted?

Oh well, let’s not look for heaven here on earth. It’s a valley of tears, isn’t it?

It’s unfair!! But…..Who said that Life is fair??

Magpakabuti na lang tayo in our own little ways, so that when everything is over and done.. we will get justtice and happiness in heaven. Amen??

Opposition solons study next moves

By Norman Bordadora
Inquirer
Last updated 08:10am (Mla time) 06/08/2007

MANILA, Philippines — Faced with the possibility of being led by a member of the majority coalition, the opposition in the House of Representatives are exploring other options on how it would position itself in the fight for the speakership in the 14th Congress.

Speaker Jose de Venecia of the Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (Lakas-CMD) and Cebu Rep. Pablo Garcia of the Kabalikat ng Malayang Pilipino (Kampi, Partner of the Free Filipino), both allied in the majority coalition, are the main contenders for the post.

isa ako sa mga bomoto kay trillanes. ngunit bago ko ito isinagawa kasama ang aking buong pamilya, pinagisipan namin ito. sabi ng ilang mga komento, istupido ang mga bomoto kay trillanes!!para makita natin kung bakit deserving siya sa aming boto. unang basehan, ang maraming bilang sa kanyang mga kasama ay sumuko na kay gloria, pero siya at ilang mga kasama niya ay nanatili sa kanliang tindig. marahil ang kanyang pagtakbo isang paraan upang makita na tama ang kanilang ipinaglalaban. at nakita nga natin na kahit di siya nangampanya kung tutuusin ay pang-11 siya. kung sariling interes at ipokrito siya katulad ni gambala di ginawa na sana niya ang sumuko. pangalawa, kung susuriin natin ang kanyang uri, PMA’r siya di ba? at intellectual siyempre. ang ilang mga taong ganyan na may patutunguhan sana sa militar kung gagayahin nila sina esperon at mga ilang nakaraan ng mga PMA’r na nagsamantala sa mga pilipino e di kawawa lalo tayo kasi maraming magagaling katulad ni Trillanes na magagamit ang mga suwapang at ganid. pangatlo, kailangan nating sumugal sa panahon na ito, ang sistema natin ay talagang kasama ang popularidad, ngunit bihira sa mga popular ang kayang magsalita laban sa maling sistemang umiiral, mabibilang lamang ang may consistent na tindig andiyan sina Satur Ocampo at Crispin Beltran na tumanda na at di pa rin nagbabago. para sa bayan pa rin ang kanilang isinusulong, kasi kung sila ay makasarili e di mayaman na rin sila.
balik tayo kay trillanes, kung nagdududda ang mga makasarili sa intensiyon ni trillanes, hamunin natin siyang mamili alinman sa 2: (1) sumuko na lang siya at pabayaan na lamng si gloria at alipores niya tutal naman ay umuunlad kuno ang ating bayan( di naman namin mramdaman ang sinasabi nilang figure) o kung hindi ay (2)babarilin siya katulad ni Jose Rizal.
para sa akin, mas pipiliin niya ang pangalawa para lamang mapatunayan niya na malinis ang kanyang ipinaglalaban.
panghuli, magising tayo sa katotohanan na may mga tao talaga kabataan man o mas matanda na nagigising at handang magsakripisyo para sa bayan. dahil kung hindi lalo lamang lulubog ang ating bayan sa pagkaalipin sa ibang bayan. kailangan nating bumangon at lumaban sa mga katulad ni gloria, 2 gonzales at esperon at etch.

The Filipino people have spoken, Let us wait till the people whom we voted will assume the position. I dont vote for Trillanes, but he got the number of votes required to become a Senator. Let us respect the will of the electorate. We can only bring this country back to its feet, if each Filipino will help each other. Let us contribute to the development and progress of this great nation, not by doing great things but by doing small things in a right way.

Again, I ask all those who voted for Trillianes: are we telling our children that its okay to get away with resolving issues through violence and intimidation?

It’s like telling our kids that, since George W. Bush is a corrupt, morally-bankrupt and greedy little person what Al Qaeda is doing - holding people and structures hostage, threatening to blow up (indeed, BLOWING UP) places with people in them - is a legitimate way to express grievances.

Really, for people who claim a black and white morality as the basis for ousting the little girl in the Palace, forgive me if I think that you people have a skewed and inconsistent way of viewing things.

The guy is a CRIMINAL. If you people took the time to both come down from your moral high horse and take yourself out of your hatred for Gloria, you’d probably remember that taking people hostage, threatening to blow up a building and taking up arms against your country are criminal offenses.

Trillanes is now a senator not because of a protest vote nor filipinos are dumb.

The result might be construed as a protest vote but it is more than that! I hope all of us just open his/her own eyes and see that we are actually made dumb and powerless by this administration. Trillanes IS JUST AN ORDINARY FILIPINO WHO SIMPLY DO AND SACRIFICE HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY FOR HIS COUNTRY. HE PUT WHERE HIS MOUTH IS WHILE WE KEEP ON COMPLAINING WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING. Before judging Senator Trillanes, KINDLY DO YOUR PART FIRST WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR THIS COUNTRY! STOP PLEASE STOP JUDGING WHILE YOU DO NOTHING! mahiya naman KAYO!!!

Nelson

To all readers,
I been working as ofw since 1981, but of to this time (26 years) our voters are still the same -kaya wala tayung patutunguhan.
Ito lang ang AKING COMMENTS:
1. ang unang nagpabagsak sa ating economiya ay walang iba sisihin ay si cory aquino - Nang time nayun nasa kanya lahat ang pagkakataon para tumaas ang respito ng pilipino pero hindi ginamit ng kasalokuyang presidente ang uppotunity, halos kasabay natin ang thailand noon- pero umagat sila tayo bumagsak dahil walang alam ang presidente natin - iyan ang katutuhanan.
2. Honasan - ano ba ang nagawa ni honasan sa bansa - lahat tayo nagsuffer.
3. Trillanez - may nagawa ba siya sa kasamhan niya sa AFP?? - wala rin pupuntahan ito. ang sinado ay parang trabaho din ito, pag wala kang suporta ng kasamahan wala kang magagawa kahit matalino kapa.
4. Sino ba ang nagpabagsak kay erap, diba sina Cory Aquino at iba pa,ginamit lang nila si Arroyo - pero nang wala silang makuhang pabor ay balak din ibagsak, pero mas mautak si Arroyo kaysa kanila kaya hangan ngayun nasa puwesto pa siya.
5. kung gusto natin malinis ang gubyerno dapat pagkatapus nang term ni arroyo kasuhan na (mga pari at iba pang malinis daw dapat kayu ang maguna - baka makalimutan ang maga kaso nanaman) at kung guilty dapat ibitay o makulong- mas maraming matutuwa.
6. Si erap may kaso pero hangan ngayun wala rin nagyari sa desisyun, kaya paano maniniwala and tao at mga invistors sa Pilipinas.
5. Ang botothan dapat ngayun palang maging electronic na - yung mga maiingay especially Gordon, dapat siya na ang maguna ngayun - kaylan oli kayo magsasalita kung malapit nanaman ang botohan.
Hangang walang gagawang tama ay ganun parin tayo kahit sino pa ang nakapuwesto sa gobyerno.



RAYMOND

For me its unfair to judge Trillanes right away, this man won in democratic way not the so called edsa dos, tres or whatsoever.., 10million plus people voted for him and believe in him. and judging him is judging the 10million people, its unfair to say that the people who voted for him are stupid or dumb. Si Trillanes po ay bago hindi trapo!!!!!



Stupid Pinoy

Why is everyone on the side of the most corrupt president the Philippines has ever had? We have impeached him and it seems most of the Senators we have elected are on his side once more?

What’s wrong with Gloria? Is she not working hard enough? And who would we want to replace her then?

Besides, do we want the ERAP back?

Let’s just wait for the next presidential election and decide! In the meantime, let us support each other!

Enough of the bickering! Let’s all go back to work!

As with Trillanes, yes i voted for him. Now it’s time for him to show us that he can do better than the others.



edgar de dios

We are very, very disappointed. Can you imagine, a man, a well-trained soldier for that matter, who revolted against the established authority, causing unquantifiable damage to our struggling economy, then becoming a senator. Oh, what a shame to this country.
This is indeed a great indication that most of our people are just playing with our elections. No wonder we are still struggling after more than half a century of real independence, while our neighbors are now well on the way to economic progress and prosperity. Woe to those who voted to a traitor of our country. No thanks to you all. God bless the Philippines.

To simple pinoy:

You are frustrated I can see, but that shouldn’t stop you of giving a hand for reforms. You’ve started right with your family being an OFW but in simple ways, like blogging your reasonable views, would help a lot. You may not know, you might have influenced, not too many, but a few fellows, and that will make a difference.

Remember, Rizal died alone. Not even Bonifacio came to his rescue. But his views influenced a lot in other areas especially Katipuneros in Cavite and history was a lone witness how had they succeeded in invading Manila.

It will only be a matter of time.



kddca

I think this is more than just Trillanes. For me, the bigger problem is the weakness and instability of our political structures. Pressing issues are not discussed thoroughly and with credibility. The fact cannot be denied that our politics is still personality-based; he or she who shouts the loudest gets the attention of everyone.

Trillanes is very clear and consistent that he wants GMA out of the office and that he wants reforms in the armed forces. But did he propose concrete solutions and policies? After he succeeds to topple GMA, what are his political, economic and social plans for the country? In the same manner, TU candidates did offer concrete measures and proposals for the growth of the country. On the other hand, will they be willing to subject their highest leader to scrutiny to erase doubts regarding her legitimacy to hold the highest position of the land, and to resolve lingering issues hurled against the administration?

Take a look at the ads. Whether GO or TU, they were all focused on the person running and their intent to outdo their opponents. One resorted to the endorsement of a dead person, one had to dance like crazy, one had to project this and that image. But where are the issues? And the debates? All of their answers were just motherhood statements, very generic, nothing that could give everyone hope that they are viable and credible leaders.

Everyone who run in this elections is tainted, in some form or the other. We make protest votes, and then what? Expect them to take up our cause? And what happens when they are not able to take it up? We go to EDSA again? It’s becoming a vicious cycle.

I just hope that the members of the 14th Congress can go beyond personalities, resolve lingering issues and to fight for the common good. And for us voters, 2010 is just three years away. Let’s make good use of this time to think what is best for all of us and to help people whom we think can lead us more better. Let us insist on issues and not just pure reklamo, hysterics or in believing in the so-called underdog.



Dudley

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

Trillanes will not and should not apologize for his success in the 2007 elections. Rather, blame the justice system on which he was able to run for a senate seat while still facing charges of heading the 2003 coup.



selzki

Yes, why should we? In that case why should we support any candidate endorsed by Erap Estrada? This man who made a mockery of our laws, our economy, and the entire Filipino nation.

Why would you reward these people who are anointed by a crook???? Hindi basta maingay sa harap ng camera may ginagawa na!

Fr: Salina

Ha, Ha, Ha,…You blow me away! You were saying, “Let the people who vote for the coup plotters and grandstanders suffer. They deserve all the hunger in the country. They never learn so let them suffer for their stupidity.”

Well, Well, Well. You may not know it but thats exactly what the filipino people did because they had enough what Gloria Arroyo, has been doing to this country of our so call Philippines.

If Capt. Trillanes, Is a coup plotter, Can you tell me, What Gloria Arroyo, Did? Did she not do the same thing? The only different is, She succeeded on her coup d’tat. Against the duly elected President Joseph Estrada. She’s the one should be in jail.

Only in the Philippines that the crooks the one can run the country! If this is not a corrupt justice system I don’t know what is….Only in the Philippines.!

From: Ping
I would like to refresh your memory of what happened in Jan 2001. The evidences on the impeachment of ERAP was overwhelming. Tobacco scandal, Jueteng, gambling, Jose Velarde etc.
Due to all of this, people got fed up and staged people power. One after another, ERAP’s cabinet ministers, his PNP chief Panfilo Lacson, Chief of Staff and the whole military withdrew their support from ERAP. ERAP had to leave Malacanang. GMA was just the vice-president who is next in line to the President. With no more support from all, The Supreme Court took the oath of PGMA to be the new President.
All of these were spontaneous….

Don’t tell to the world that GMA stole the presidency from ERAP. It was given to her by the consitution through the legal process of succession.

2004 Election. PGMA won faithfully and without any cheating. She was officially procalimed by the Congress. How can you say that she stole the presidency from FPJ through cheating. Only because you heard an illegal wiretapped of Hello Garci Conversation which had no clear evidence of cheating. If there was really cheating, then all the chairman of the Election Board of canvassers including the watchers must all be jailed for they allowed such “Cheating”.
You all have false speculations on PGMA cheating and stealing the Presidency.
SHE WON AND SHE IS THE BEST PRESIDENT THAT WE HAVE SINCE THE TIME OF MARCOS.

I want to force myself to believe that the Filipino electorate has wisened up as some bloggers claim, but with the result of the recent election it still shows how emotional and gullible they are. It clearly shows how popularity won again against merit.
With the aid of the national media unscrupulous individuals were peddled as worthy candidates, if not outright saviours, who will carry the fight against corruption, poverty, crime etc. which our country has been plagued ever since its creation. Unmindful of the consequences, people voted according to their conscience as they say. But did they really? If you examine the results of this senatorial election you would deduce right away that majority of those who made it are the very same people who hugged the limelight prior to the election. The amount of media mileage these individuals got had so much impact come election time. That is why I was not a bit surprised with the outcome of the election. Unknowingly, the voting public was forced to limit their choice among these personalities due to familiarity.
What surprises me is the seemingly callous attempt of some people in the media to wash their hands off this outcome. Some would even brand it as phenomenal or a grand display of protest votes. This is not. The voters only succumbed to what most of you guys have been unconsciously,I hope, promoting all along. The constant hyping of controversies involving these personalities imprinted their names on the minds of the electorate. And even though some of these controversies ended to be disastrous or fictitious, these demagogues succeded in gererating interest, thanks in part, to some sympathetic mediamen’s portrayal of their acts as heroic and for the Filipinos characteristic penchant to side with the underdog. I do hope that we refrain from romanticizing the election aftermath. It has a foregone conclusion from the very start. The voters are expected to spew out what the media has been feeding them.



Rene

Trillanes indeed won the election because there were 10M people who were not smart enough how to vote. However, Trillanes is wasting his time because he won’t be able to exercise his right as a Senator unless he is released from jail. I understood he was unsatisfied due to corruption in both existing government and in military but what he did at Oakwood many years ago is unacceptable.



Buddy

i am 32 years old now. i was 11 when i started to build my awareness in philippine pollitics. it was when i started to share the sentiments of the filipino, which i thought was, to get the change we want. Ousting the corrupt leaders of our government. 21 years after, the same sentiments stays. only by now, i am convinced that this will remain a cycle for philippine politics. Trilianes would now have all the priviledges from the cycle. It is nobodys fault. No matter how he do it. No matter if he wins or not. The Philippine saga will continue. The drama, action, thriller and comedy will continue. Mabuhay ang pilipinas.



Kid

i think, the “reward” as they say it, is being elected in the senate. yes, the magdalo de estabilized the economy for a while. but what was their sentiment? if you read his paper on the corruption in the navy, you will understand what they were fighting for. and what has the government done to validate their protests? incarceration. don’t blame them for being so idealistic and “straight” as it was the thing taught in the PMA. and here they are, standing for the people, staking their bright military careers just so we will know what really is happen. it really takes a brave stand from someone so we wake up from slumber. as the overwhelming support for GO is somewhat a protest vote against the government. and i may say, this could be the beginning of something good in Philippine politics.



Paeng

Binoto ko si Trillanes kasi maganda ang kanyang background at qualifications. master’s degree holder siya sa National College of Public Administration and Governance. maganda rin yung mga proposed laws niya. sa pag-aaral para sa isang research project (or was it his thesis) nga niya naungkat yung corruption sa military which led to the Oakwood mutiny.

paanong napabagsak ni Trillanes ang ekonomiya? dahil sa supposed image ng “instability” na nagawa ng kanyang mutiny? during 2003, pabagsak na talaga economy nun. yun yung panahon na nag-MBA ako at ramdam na ramdam ang economic crunch. the worst blow to the economy came during the 2004 elections nang magamit ang public funds sa pangangampanya. look at the economic indicators.

magresearch naman muna kayo bago magsulat.

White

1. Right to vote is now a property to sell - to a vast majority of Filipinos.

2. Is the message being delivered by Trillanes his own? Or is he a voicebox of other people? Mahilig kasi mga pinoys sa super hero. Ano nagawa ni Gringo? Di ba sya nahuli na tumatatakbo sa bubong ng kabit nya para tumakas sa pulis? And yet yeheyyy… senador na naman!!!! That’s how tanga ang maraming pinoys. Iboto ang mga badboy. Si tatang erap na may kasong non-bailable nasaan? Super hero din kasi kaya dapat nasa rest house yan.

3. Buti pa ang Lola Miriam S. ko maski mighty yon minsan e honest naman na umaamin kung saan bumabawi ang mga kandidato sa mga gastos nila sa eleksyon.



Fred

Trillanes’ victory simply means that the long dark night is not over. In this scenario, too few Pinoys have lit lamps to light the way and the darkness is overwhelming enough to mistake wolves for sheep. Why reward Trillanes? Why did Pinoys put up with Marcos? Why does Satur Ocampo and General Palaparan have strong followings? Why do people vote for a party list group who claims to be anti-corruption but has no anti-corruption achievements to speak of?

Because this is the Philippines.



anilaS

Trillanes will be convicted soon because of the Oakwood Mutiny. Some of his fellow soldiers are beginning to plead guilty for such attempted Coup. Some of them who were just forced to join Trillanes are now have a change of heart. Because of all these impending developments, Trillanes ran for Senator to try his luck just like what Gringo did in the early 1990’s. Fortunately, there have been lots of stupid Filipinos who voted for him, who rewarded him. Now, he succeeded. He will now use this to shield himself from the any liability of the illegal action that he did for the Oakwood Mutiny. Ika nga sa cartoon ng Phil Star:

“Be a Soldier. Mount a Coup. Kill few fellow soldiers and civilians. Stage an Oakwood Mutiny. Paralyze the Makati CBD….. Voila… You’re a SENATOR….”

Trillanes does not deserve to be in the Senate. He will just be there doing nothing just like what Gringo did and other senators doing nothing, counting the lizards in the ceiling, taking a nap more often, etc……..



Trillanes Shadow

Wala nmn syang gagawin sa senate e. Ano ba alam nyan? Dpat nag Tanod nlng sya sa mga barangay sa mindanao at nakatulong pa sya sa bayan natin. stop the crap your making Mr. Trillanes. You are a NO BRAINER person….



leo

we have been saying that gma is a bogus president. do you have proof that she really is a bogus president? sws exit poll in 2004 showed that she won. you did not accept that. now that the sws exit poll showed that the opposition wins, you accept it with a bang. are you really sure that she cheated? look at the movie stars now, how many of them won? do you get the point, popularity is not a guarantee to win. that was what happened in 2004! and now trillanes, it is no wonder that we, including YOU, is mired in this pitiful situation because of our foolishness. we are easily lured by false pretenses, by sweet promises. we could never get out of our misery because of our own doing. the truth is, we are just pawns that are being used by these individuals to serve their own selfish interest and motives.

Naniniwala parin ako sa ating mga ulirang Kawal.

To Buddy Jose who never have been into actual combat, never have seen comarades get wounded and die in combat with opponents equipped with more sophisticated combat equipment and weapons, you don’t know what you’re talking about. For your information, most of the guns our filipino soldiers using are issues in the 70’s. Basic combat boots are old and rotten, enough for your toe to peep. Or have you heard about the story of a Filipino soldier who got his leg amputated after being wounded in the fight??? He’s out there in Fort Bonifacio looking for junk materials in the garbage so he could sell for survival. For sure you’ll gonna say DAMN!!!! and ask, where’s the Gov’t money intended for these basic expenditures??? Buddy Jose, that’s the main reason why a hero in the person of TRILLANES came up in the political scene. He got big balls to speak and stand up not only for his comrades but for those people who’ve been long cheated and victimized by corrupt officials of our land. Let’s give this young officer a try to serve the people and walk his talk. For justice sake, we haven’t seen him perform yet. Too early to draw conclusions. Who knows, he might come up with bills that you Buddy would first benefit. TRILLANES GOT BIG BALLS that’s why he deserves to be there.



mordred

Trillanes won because he speaks the truth about the true state of our country … he doesn’t mince words when it comes to The Bogus Arroyo regime unlike those turncoats and lapdogs of Malacanang who just bow to any caprices and whims of this murderous regime… If you think that being jailed and sacrificing your future is a reward then you people who critizise him doesn’t even know what their are talking about….
Hey let me remind you that you people blogging against Trillanes are hypocrites and dumb… dont you get it do you! you are enjoying speaking your mind out and raising hell and highwater against the principles which Trillanes stand for.

Trillanes have sacrificed so much for what he stood for and believe in .. priciples that can’t be trampled upon by by a regime who doesnt respect life and your rights as a human being.
We owe to this people why were able to speak our minds out and blog against the same principles that gave us and enjoy this sacred rights.

just like in a movie Few Good Men ..
YOu want the truth … you cant handle the truth!!
so dream on people and if you think your better off with the likes of Singson, Pichay And add your new boy Honasan ( I wonder how he was able to get a bail for rebellion and mutiny)
then so be it!! YES as long as we got you people who are hypocrites and plain dumb… our country will not move on.
Ten million plus people shared and voted for what Trillanes believe in .. you should have at least have the decency to accept what a resounding majority wants … and that is someone like Trillanes to continue spousing his advocacy that is to speak against the abuses of your beleoved regime!



El Filibustero

The only “Dumb” voters in the elections are those that think economic progress is more important than democracy and the integrity of the electoral process. A good economy is not enshrined in the Constitution. Democracy and the electoral process are. Any economic progress stemming from a muffling of democracy is short sighted. True democracy brings about REAL economic progress in the long run.

Those who think we need economic progress in lieu of democracy are therefore shortsighted, impatient and dumb. Do you belong to the said group, buddy?



Monday Lessons

If mounting coups are the way to earn a political office, then Gringo and Trillanes never had it so easy…since the advent of coups on our shores, aspirants for high government offices now know how to get elected the less expensive way.



Patterson

i have watched trillanes interview in the television where he might win. he keeps on stating about the impeachment thing. doesn’t he have any other idea to move the Philippines into a higher ground than impeaching the president. military men are wise but politicians are wiser..the only thing i can tell trillanes is face the facts and change tactics.



Tonio

El Filibusterimo:

I think we do not need to choose between democracy and economic progress right now.We already have democracy, it is just not perfect because of human greed(greed of power). If you want real democracy you are aiming for a utopian society which is difficult to achieve because humans are naturally greedy.

These groups who are claiming that we do not have democracy are hypocrites, they all have the freedom they had…too much freedom that they are destabilizing the government of their freedom of speech. The are dessiminating ideals that is threatening democracy(communist). What we need is economic progress, with progress comes everything, you have the resources to protect democracy.

What is democracy when all are hungry?
With hunger there can never be democracy because humans will strive for survival, the process of survival itself will derail democracy.



mario g

Just ask him how he was able to aquire his assets with his salary from being a military capt and it will show his true color.
hindi pa rin makukuha sa atin ang underdog mentality ,then expect a rich senator in the making from a “salary of a senator”????



ernesto

The law is giving Trillanes his due process, while in jail, the alleged offense being unbailable. I think that is fair.

Now the people will be giving Trillanes a mandate as Senator. We have to respect the people’s votes. Just because you disagree with Trillanes, should not mean Trillanes should not be allowed to win a lawful mandate.

We all have our reasons of why we choose a candidate. Respect for that is important. Grow up…



ppinoy

na nanalo si trillanes, wala tayong pagtatalo duon. pero wag nyong sabihin na ibinoto nyo siya dahil sa kanyang prinsipyo, dahil wala siya non. kung may simpatya ako sa kanyang ipinaglaban nuon, kahit mali ang kanyang pamamaraan, iyon ay nabura ng tumakbo siya bilang kasapi ng samahang pinatatakbo at tinatangkilik ng isa ding “morally bankrupt” at corrupt na dating pangulo. mas bibilib ako sa kanya kung tumakbo siya bilang independiyente, dahil dito ay mapapangalagaan niya ang kanyang “prinsipyo” ibinenta niya ito sa kanyang pagsali sa GO, kung saan pinagpalit niya ang kanyang prinsipyo para sa isang makinaryang maaaring magpapanalo sa kanya. anong pinagkaiba niya sa mga dating trapo na, kung ganon?



Gerry

It is done, like it or not Filipinos have to live with whom they have chosen last election. Squabbling about it will not benefit anyone nor will it lead us anywhere. Let us all gather our ideas together on how to improve our country by proposing a 10 point plan, then send it our your local representative to be passed in Congress and approved by the Senate. Set our own indicator or KPI (Key Performance Index) for these officials to achieve and to rate their performance, post their monthly performance for the public to view and scrutinize (more transparent). This will provide Filipinos a tangible measure on performance and it will create awareness among the citizenry, and for them to make a more sensible choice next time there is an election. Let us look for solutions to the problem, let us not add to the problem by blaming or complaining (be pro-active), positive attitude makes for a prgressive society. In short, if all you know is only to complain, then you are part of the problem not the solution.



Ayen and Barty

Amboy wake-up

I think,Buddy Jose need to know more on the real scenario happenning in the Philippines before releasing any statement specialy to Antonio Trillanes IV.
We son of of a soldier knows best. Why we need him to become senator?
1.We believe that he can share some changes specialy in the military. which wnever experience during the time of our father.
2.Trillanes is not a politicians.He has a true heart that cares for the people same as ERAP.
3.We believe that he’s a real friend not “Kaibigan Putik” meaning need help only after that dont care.
4.The 10million vote for him are the sign for some changes that will happen in the Government of the Philippines.
5.We believe that Antonio Trillanes Panfilo Lacson and Gringo Honasan will make our country lessen the Corrupt Government official.

cute kasi sha! pogi ba! sa mundo ng kawalan, seeing someone goodlooking is a relief. look at legarda and escudero, mga beauty sila kaya winners. gloria is not also bad looking, in fact she look younger than her age, kaya she stays. si honasan din, macho and dating kaya pasok.

bottomline : nakuha tayo sa looks.

(na tulad namin na nagbabanat nang buto dito sa gitnang silangan). salamat po..



Bert

Reward, my eye. My single vote is not a reward. I voted for somebody as a citizen’s duty to his country, thinking that the person I voted for would make a difference for the better. You guys are predicting what Trillanes would act as a senator. Prediction, by statistics, is only 15% accurate. I did not vote for the man, but you are judging him quite too early. Let’s talk about Trillanes, ok? What was it that he did to get your goat? He did an ‘Oakwood’ allright, as a protest, just a protest mind you, against what he perceived to be an inutile government, no more, no less. Correct? Correct. Did he stole millions of your taxpayer’s money? Did he pocket millions of porK? Is he responsible for what happened to those people who are missing, abducted, or killed? Did he cheated in the election? Can you prove he is a liar? Will somebody tell me more of what he did to make me angry at him?

Sa aking lang pananaw, may kulang pa ang BATAS sa Pinas… Para sa kin di dapat pumasok sa pulitika ang isang may kaso, kahit na itoy dahil sa mabuting adhikain. Tulad ni Capt Trillanes or Colonel Honasan.. I do admired them yes!!! but they you are right, they cannot compared to Gen LACSON and Gen BIAZON… These two Generals proved themself in many things and really they are leaders with HONORS…

Pero sa kabilang banda, may mga sitwasyon GAYA ng kay Capt Trillanes, na walang option kundi ipakita sa pamamagitan ng KUDETA…

Tulad ng ginawa nina MR RAMOS at ni MR ENRILLE…. kundi sa tulad nila, di sana nagkaroon ng mga KUDETA SA PINAS….

MR Buddy please can you compare the MARCOS Regime, than Cory, Ramos, Erap for 2years and MS Arroyo…. even the before president Marcos….

simple pinoy

To All Members of Trillanes Fans Club

There are many of you here who reacted very strongly in support of Trillanes. The problem is: all your responses are non-sequitor.

I don’t object to Trillanes as a man or citizen of the country. His tirades against the government are valid. My beef against him is the mode in which he carried out his crusade.

Is it fine to kill someone just because we are hungry? Is it alright to steal just because others are doing it? A principled man in the same situation of Trillanes would have resigned from his commission and pursue his agenda as a private, tax paying citizen. That’s how it should be in a civilized nation.

No matter how noble ones aspiration is does not give it license to go beyond the limits imposed by law. A man with conviction knows the basic difference between right and wrong. Trillanes fails in this very simple test.

To those who associate Trillanes’ coup as guts, woe to you. It just shows how low you can get. Meaning to say, you couldn’t care less how your food is earned as long as you have food on your table. I don’t wonder why our country is such a mess. The people in general are amoral.

What? Are you all dreaming? And what will an opposition dominated Senate do to improve the country? Economic policy is the domain of the executive. The best that can be expected from a GO dominated Senate is more investigations, move TV coverage of grandstanding senators. All hot air with no substance. What happened to all the investigations in the past? Who were prosecuted? NONE!!!!

Stanley

In my point of view, Trillanes votes are votes from people who hate the way administration run the government. I ounce heard many people who are saying that they will vote for lacson, trillanes, and honasan so that there will be an opposition in the senate much likely of GMA. The latter would produce chaos for GMA. The trillanes votes are the votes of the people who are calling for a change, votes of the people who are sick and tired with traditional politician that wares mask every election, it’s the vote of the poor, the pimps, the majority of Filipino who are under poverty and humilliation from the rich. The T.V. and A.M. Radio “Underdog motif” programs are one of the reasons why trillanes was included in the winning senate slate. These programs has been aired so many times that it condition the mindset of the people that those people who is underdog are the people whon they can trust as the T.V. and A.M. Radeo relayed. It’s againts the overt obtuseness of politicians who brazenly corrupt the government funds.



norpil

I think Trillanes deserved to win. He is young and as we say youth is the hope of the future. In addition, he has an analytical mind having studied not only in the military academy but also at U.P. Added to this that he suffers but still stands for the things he has done to the extreme that he is right now in jail. To me he seems to be not only bright but also honest. The Phil need such men today.



dingbajose

why not u run in the senate. binabastos mo naman lahat ng bumoto kay trillanes. problema kasi sa mga pinoy marami na masyadong magagaling.



dax 30+

I was out of the country when the election happened but i was following up the results of the senatorial elections and the result really frustrated me. I am not proud to say that I am one who keeps telling other Filipinos to get out of the country but be sure i will continue if people like Trillanes would win elections. We are a hopeless as a people. I don’t really see what his strong points for running for an elective post…what!? to combat corruption? I’d say good luck! I know these people are a dime a dozen!



diego

Mr Buddy just compare also Manny Paquiao the ICON in Boxing Philippines today…

Isinabak agad sya,,, Biro mo!!! KONGRESO,, na-agad,,, grabeeee!!!…

Then you critisized Trillanes that never been in involved in Kapitan del baryo…

Hindi ako maka Trillanes or Oppositinist…
I do respect Ms Arroyo.. Pero, ayoko lang ng BABAENG LEADER sa BANSA….

I just learnd somethings that, in ALL politicians,walang gustong magbago sa pamumuno… lahat sila gusto nila sila ang TAMA…. Pilipino’s are really not aware on this matter…..

Mr Buddy bago ko malimutan, yung tanong ko//// MR Buddy please can you compare the MARCOS Regime, than Cory, Ramos, Erap for 2years and MS Arroyo…. even the before president Marcos….

Bakit maraming tao na galit na galit kay gloria ? kahit naman sinu cguro umupo may kapintasan , its more of the “the lesser evil na lang yan”

Can someone please name a better choice that of trillanes in the TU list aside from Angara and J.Arroyo?Dont tell me Chavit,Pichay or Defensor are much a better choice?



Joe

Mga Kabayan,

Are you bothered that Lt Trillanes was able to gain enough votes to be elected as senator? Personally, I salute Lt. Trillanes for taking the risky road to the senate. Very few people are brave enough to take the road he took and only the tough minded people succeed in successfully traveling the whole course of that road.

I do not have any doubt in my mind that Trillanes will succeed as a senator. Ang magiging hadlang lang niya ay yong mga tao sa gubierno na walang inisip kundi yong kapangyarihan nila at yong perang nakukurakot nila sa taong bayan.

Mabuhay si Gringo, Lacson at Trillanes!!!!



cyberphol

Trillanes won by VOTES. Gloria and her Talunan Union or TU tried to win by “BOUGHT” and not “VOTE”.

Those who think Corrrupt-Gloria is the reason why the Philippine economy is getting better, please check yourself, you may be corrupted or exposed to so many corruption before.

Other than the EVAT, The filipinos abroad, workers and immigrants, make the Philippine economy better.

Why Trillanes won, because filipino vote for him. Gloria and Talunan Union bought but lost! Matalinu na voters, they receive the payment but vote who they really want.

Again, the buying machinery of Gloria and TU did not deliver!!!



Chris

It is easy to say that “we” Filipino voters are stupid … but did anyone of you see or felt the feelings of those millions you called stupids voters? Why we are voting someone like trillanes?? or the GO candidates? IT’s not because they were attached with erap… Erap has nothing to do with it… We voted for them because we want to hear our voices? That GMA can’t no longer do whatever she wants… (Kiliing peoples that against her, stealing the money that belongs to the people, changing the constitution with their own good and not for the sake of the people?) Yeah, we sick and tired of thier actions, in running this government and stealing peoples money. We want change, we want freedom we want new politician, we want new leaders… Now, tell me … are we stupid???



Askal

Trillanes could be a good man and he may serious on what he wanted to do…serve Juan De La Cruz…running for a political office is his best option…unfortunately, he resorted to a failed coup first and went against the essence of decency and democratic ideals. He first disobeyed the rules of the military in which he was expected to follow…then he failed. Now, he runs and wins the senatorial seat. How do you reconcile a person who personally disagrees with the basic of democracy to represent the people in the Senate. A solid democratic institution. Go figure.



no_lpogs

Basta ako gagayahin ko si chief! GAgawa lang ako pangalan at iisip ako ng kakaiba para maalala ng tao para pag kumandidato ako sigurado panalo. Ganito kasi ang mga botante. Yung nasa isip ang mareretain. KAsehodang masama pa yung ginawa mo. Tsk..tsk.. pangarap ko rin kasing maging senador. Galing mo chief!!
Ano kaya gagawin mo sa Senado. ! Aabangan ko ang mga bills mo,, hehehe



critical thinker

Reasons why i think Trillanes deserves a shot at being a Senator:

He took up BS Naval Systems Engineering in the Philippine Military Academy, where he graduated Cum Laude. He has a Master’s degree in Public Administration Major in Public Policy and Program Management from the University of the Philippines Diliman. He has 23 assorted merit medals, campaign ribbons and badges to his name.

This guy deserves to be rewarded indeed!

Filipinos are self righteous people, always quick to point finger, always ready with opinion regardless of their knowledge on the issues. Filipinos never give any government a chance, always blame the government of their misery. It’s true that government is filled with corrupt people, and most Filipinos will fight each other to cast the first stone. Maybe we should examine ourselves first. Don’t people like it if there is a corrupt staff in a government agency who can speed up the process with P20. If stopped by a traffic police for a certain traffic violation, people would rather bribe the officer than go to LTO because the bribe needed there is much more or it’s to much of a hassle for them. These are just a couple of examples how corruption had been a part of our culture. And Filipinos only see it through a one way mirror. So what are the chances of change happening?

I am disappointed with the result of the elections because no matter what the government does to unite the country, Filipinos elected candidates to senate whose main agenda is to divide the country. Senators are legislators, we need them to pass laws that will better or lives. So, what is Trillanes going to do in the senate? Loi Estrada opted not to run again because she is tired if debating, she is not that kind of a person. Duh… didn’t she know that before she ran. This is a good example of people running for an office to prove something, and peolpe voting for whomever is against the government. Who needs to know what the responsibilities of a legislator, just oppose the government and one will surely win….because Filipinos love drama. In poverty, there is so much drama. I guess it goes to show that Filipinos would rather stay in poverty. I rest my case.

They call it vox populi, the voice of the people and the people voted for Trillanes. No doubt about that. He was elected because in democracy, what rules is the rule of majority and majority of filipinos chose Trillanes to be their voice.

We know for a fact that to be effective public servant or employee one must be physically, mentally capacitated to perform whether in public or private capacity.

Where is Trillanes? In jail, lock up in jail. How could he perform his duties as senator if he physically absent from his office where presence is not only a must but necessity.
We elected Jalosjos who is in jail. What happened ? His constituents were neglected for Jalosjos non-feasance or non performance.

Now, we have Trillanes. This will be a total loss for filipino people for their voice will not be heard officially.

What we need are people who will be physically present in the battlefield for there will be a 6 year war in the senate.

Filipnos should change. No reward for violators must more sympathy does not need victory.

I’m making a general comment. Let me point out that what Honasan did before he became popular was against the law, and yet the people of the Philippines embraced him. It seems like it’s the norm in the Philippines. Break the law and get yourself on tv and there’s you ticket to fame and fortune. People with a toughguy image even if they are criminals are being elected to public office, and they are saying that the Filipinos are intelligent people. Go figure.



Bert

To Lulu:

Very well said, Lulu. The Impeachment Trial was supposed to be the proper venue to bring down the president by showing all the evidence in the impeachment proceedings. Too bad the opposition prevented its happening, the President could have cleared herself of all the accusations if the impeachment had pushed through.

Kung walang nagpapadala ng pera mula sa mgaOFW atBalikbayan. walang kikitain ang pilipinas. We don’t anything to offer to the world. Our economyis based on packaging and services lang. Ni panghinunuli sa tenga hindi tayo maka export. Dito sa US kahit bagoong gawa ng thailand. Ang pwede lang nating i export yung Cell card ng globe at Smart, that’s it wala tayong produkto…

I was just wondering about your comment:

“I’m fed up with these protest votes claim. There never was a so called protest votes. There are more non-thinking votes that intelligent votes. Thinking voters who voted for Trillanes had a reason and the rest had none. Anyone who thinks that Filipinos are now smart voters belongs to the opposition and they are fantasizing. The administration knew that voters are still stupid, but they never expected them to be that dumb.”

then what is an intelligent vote for you? please be more specific and not generalize, its like your saying that every filipino is dumb but not you. list who you think should be in the senate.



carlos

I’m not a fan of Capt. Trillanes. But why condemn the people who voted for him. Let him sit in the senate for that is what the people wants.

mr Buddy Jose,

you may have already forgotten why the Oakwood mutiny started. These renegade soldiers rebeled against their leadership because they have proof that the government itself supplies muslim separatists and insurgent groups with weapons and ammunition. They got this proof because they are the men on the field.
How were they able to get proof?
Based on statements given around the time of the oakwood mutiny, field operatives of the AFP such as scout rangers and marine batallions were able to seize weapons and ammunitions upon the capture of rebel bases, these arms cache indicated and had the initials DND-AFP (Department of National Defense- Armed Forces of the Philippines)

So what does this mean?

There may be 2 arguments on this incident. First, the rebels may have captured these weapons and ammunition by overwhelming certain Military Bases or ambushing patrols where they can overpower small army groups, Second is that the government itself may have sold these materials directly thru unknown means.

There were no reports made by the leadership of the AFP that there were ever any camps overrun by rebel groups where in they lost their ammory to the rebels. Well, maybe no reports have been made since it will reflect negatively against our own military making them incompetent of their job. Also, the DND-AFP obviously won’t publish reports that they sell materials to the rebels.

A third argument maybe included in which a third party (maybe the US, what do you think?) may have sold them these weapons.

The US by record have done so in the past to influence results of conflicts (e.g. Afghan-Russian conflict)

At the end of the day, what the Oakwood mutiny aimed to do was to exposed these corrupt practices, eventually the President will be included in this because she is the Commander in Chief, credit it to command responsibility.

The mutiny ended, with the 300 officers and soldiers only asking that this be investigated, at which they also assumed that no action will be done against that issue but only Court Mashalls against them will be filed.

So, if you are a good man and you want to make changes then the “The End Will Justify the Means”

Why don’t we give him a chance, if he gets proclaimed senator, let’s see what he will do.

If he turns out to be a “Bad Apple”, what will a “Bad Apple” do amongst a basket of Rotten Apples??

The Philippines is not a poor country, only a country of Poor Management.



romel

trillanes is winning (or already won) in the senate race because people believe in him and his cause. its that simple !!
i suggest that you stop using the word dumb and stupid on other people (in this case, on Trillanes or the entire filipino poeple).
he won, and thats just it !!!



TraderPinoy

Tonio,

there is a huge difference between being “accused” and one being caught with your hand inside the cookie jar……

i thought Filipino’s believe in the Justice system….. everyone is innocent until proven guilty……..

Trillianes is guilty (NO DOUBT ABOUT THIS)…Evidence is IN YOUR FACE…..

Soon this country will be a communist one…I cant wait…lets give the people what they want…..



Gerry

Why reward Trillanes? . . .Because he is a courageous person who didn’t mince words in exposing the corruptions in the government and remained true to his convictions, in spite of a short-cut offered to him by the administration (plea bargaining). . .With his four years in prison, I believe he will follow the likes of Ninoy who would rather die than coopt with a corrupt government.

Our different personal experiences dictates what we say, thinkk and do. Most of those who are against the GMA administration probalby have experienced/experiencing so much hardship in their lives. And those of course, who do not oppose GMA are experiencing differently. Why did Trillanes won in the may 14 elections as a senator?. Mainly because these 10 million plus voters saw something in him that fits a character in the Filipinos upcoming movie! (title: the rise and fall of GMA). It is in our nature that WE always wanted to see other people suffer especially those who are conceited, and self-righteous. That is what most of us see in Gloria. Witch, *itch, But probably others would see differently especially her friends and family. She is a loving and caring mom for them. Filipinos are not stupid, they are just colorful. And color adds life! and that’s what they saw in Trillanes. the missing color in the picture. (from my friend:Di ba mas stupid na paniwalaan natin na di tumatanggap ng jueteng money si chavit o si ramos o si jose pidal, i believe erap also doe, but what bothers me is who among them is in jail?) Trillanes may not do good in the senate and may not do anything at all, but his mere presence in the senate will cause a great concern for GMA to do well and good or else….Trillanes definitely won. Funny thing is, you cannot say that he cheated because he was in jail, so, those who can’t believe it blame our countrymen and say we are stupid voters. but on the second thought, you are probably right because, you are one of those who voted for GMA. right you are!



Eva marquez

You know whats the difference between the politics here in US and there in PHils? People here respect who won the elections,. Unlike there in PHils people are so snutty, they think they knew more but when being ask if what they can do for their own community.. They will always say “I dont care, I mind my own personal business”. Something like that. Bu t they will continually look for others mistake and blame eveything!

The people have spoken, who ever is questioning Trillanes vote.. This is a democratic country and he got the mandate to serve so let see his coming participation before judging him. Alos, why drag ERAp in the issue? Duh?! Until now they havent even proven that he is a corrup person so you cant judge him that he is a corrupt president while GMA obviously is a BOGUS president. She never had the mandate thats why until now she was being haunted by her past! Unlike ERAP look at all those people who belong to the conspricay to grab his power and presidency… from all the senators who was againts him bfore to cory aquino .. now they do admit the is it just a big plot and conspiracy to take the presidency from him.

So i hope people instead of doing somehting good from their family and community ( as it is the basic one ) .. stop making stupid remarks or comments like this. Here in the US people here are more broad minded and not as snutty as their in phils. So i hope who ever was elected in the last election should be given respect!



ric las

Trillanes made an impression to the ordinary filipinos. Only few peolple in the government service stood up agains their bosses and the government for a good cause. It does not take only courage to sacrifice one’s carreer and the future of one’s family to stand up to a cause that would have made a difference in the life of a nation. The eyes of the public would not have been reverted to corrupt system of the AFP that cause their comptroller sent to jail. Trillanes stumbled on the tip of the iceberg and he knows he does not have power to melt it, why sacrifice yourself to a lost cause? bakit siya bumangga sa bakal na pader? why didnt he silent himself and continue to serve AFP and lead a comfortable life? Why not? He could have followed the footsteps of his superiors just following orders from the top and advance their careers?
BRAVERY and pure intentions has driven this man to blaze against the powers-that-be. Either he is a true patriot or a fool who gamble his life for nothing but the betterment of the entire soldiers of the AFP.
Few would ever understand this. Yhis man made a voice you and I can never do. I worked for the government and I understand the complexities of standing against your bosses.
I voted for this man hoping he would shine his way through the senate house. Not to simply impeach the president as his heart wills because that would be a naked revenge for what he is been through. But the filipino wants him stand up against corruption in the government and not to play partisan politics.
Time will hone him to be a wise man. To be true to himself and to be true to the filipino people because that is where greatness of a true patriot is gauged. Pray hard Trillanes as we pray for you..

Trillanes victory has grave implications

By Ramon Tulfo
Inquirer
Last updated 03:28am (Mla time) 06/09/2007

MANILA, Philippines — “Voters love revolutionaries or rebels, wherever they are,” said political analyst Antonio Gatmaitan when asked about the surprising turnout of voters for mutineer and senator-elect Antonio Trillanes IV.

I wonder how the voters feel, now that it’s been exposed that their faith in Trillanes was massaged by Kongreso ng Pagkakaisa ng Manggagawa sa Pilipinas (KPMP), a militant labor group allied with the leftist organization Kilusang Mayo Uno, among other groups.

If reports are true, Trillanes—who shot to national prominence with the failed Oakwood Mutiny in 2003—allegedly sought the endorsement of the Communist Party of the Philippines and New People’s Army (CPP-NPA) and communist front organizations for his senatorial candidacy.

When Trillanes filed his certificate of candidacy, Laban ng Masa, whose affiliate organizations include Sanlakas, Akbayan, Bukluran ng Manggagawang Pilipino and the Partido Manggagawa, was among his most active supporters.

When Trillanes’ position became stable at No. 11 in the Magic 12, he suddenly recalled his military roots and demanded that the detained military officers who attempted a coup during the 20th anniversary of Edsa I, be freed.

The implication of his action is that he’s not averse to using both his military connections and ties with the NPA that were supposed to have been established by some people in his group, in order to further his ambitions.

On the left side of his brain, there’s nothing right.

On the right side of his brain, there’s nothing left.

Could this be an appropriate term for the incoming senator’s grey matter?

* * *

The election of Trillanes has grave implications.

In the future, any Tomas, Juan and Pablo in the military can stage a mutiny or rebellion and get elected to a high position.

So now, disobedience to legal authority pays huge dividends.

* * *

One of the Team Unity candidates whom I rooted for, Migz Zubiri, is hanging on for dear life between the last slot of the Magic 12 and No. 13.

It would be a pity and a loss to the country if he doesn’t make it to the Senate.

I know Migz very well. He is a disciplined martial arts student, a world-class arnis and kickboxing expert. He was twice a world arnis champion in his division and represented the country in the Wushu competition in Malaysia in the 1990s.

Migz brought his brand of martial discipline to the House of Representatives where he has never missed a session.

He introduced many bills that became laws of the land, among them the Clean Air Act and the Bio-Fuel Substitute Law.



jhojo

trillanes win for simple reason, FILIPINOS are fed up of the ARROYO GOVT,yes its a protest vote!!and take note he is the least spender of all the candidates!! im glad that such as the TRAPOS,BALIMBING lost in the last election such as Tessie aquino,sotto,pichay,recto(evat)singson and others .theres still hope in our country!!! as the saying goes ” who will love our country if,we filipinos does not love our very own country”,pity to all those filipinos that did look back from were they came from!!!!m still hoping that theres still room of progress in our country as long as filipinos unite and vigilant!! and of course not tobe short minded!!!! also hoping TRILLANES shows his true love to our country!!and to be intimidated or harass by anyone
GOOD LUCK TO TRILLANES AND AS A REMINDER 10MILLION PEOPLE GIVES YOU THERE TRUST IN YOUR STINT IN THE SENATE!!!



Velvet Revolution

I am having my second thoughts about Trillanes, and I am generally disappointed with the people who voted for him. I must admit, I cannot blame them. For me, democracy stands stronger than my perception of who should be in the Senate.

For me, the worst thing is not TRILLANES. It is Gringo HONASAN-the veteran coup plotter, criminal, murderer!

I cannot understand, to this very day, how Filipinos could vote for someone who would use tanks, guns, kill people to affect change in this country.

For me, if I follow the present logic of some Filipinos voting for Trillanes and Honasan, then, I was right all along in staying out of the streets all throughout PGMA’s impeachment drama.

I am not a PGMA fan, but just imagine accusing Gloria for “supposedly” cheating, YET vote for men who are, without question, truly a violent! (I’m not sure of Trillanes on this one. Nonetheless, what he did should not be emulated).

What’ is worse, here comes Trillanes, a Gringo copycat, now a most likely to become a Senator.

The lesson I get from all these is, If anyone dreams of becoming a senator, the fastest way….just DO a Gringo-Trillanes coup approach… Kill and use guns if need be…THEN act with Oscars-type altruistic drama, and SURELY there’s a great chance you can become a fuck** Senator!



Diego K. Guerrero

The dominance of the opposition in the senate derby is referendum on Gloria Arroyo’s illegitimate presidency. Only morons would deny it. The senators have a national mandate. GMA’s close allies like Defensor, Pichay and Chavit were rejected by the electorate. More than 11 million voters want Trillanes and the opposition to end the repressive and corrupt Arroyo regime.



yaki

Trillanes deserves to be elected because he has brains, having been trained in the PMA and UP. But he really stood out because he has the guts and is still brimming with idealism.

The Philippines needs drastic change and that can only be done through revolution. Trillanes is capable of orchestrating a mini-revolution. I hope, in time, he learns to launch a peaceful but effective revolution.

Those who also voted for Trillanes, let us keep on supporting him. Don’t mind these rude commenters who are good at making hasty generalizations, accusations and insults. In reality, they don’t matter anyway.



max

hahahaha..there you are folks..acting like babies cry over a spilled milk (read : vote)…who each one of you pointing fingers why some ”bad/good” buddy spilled the milk and thought that it would make a difference if it had not been or better yet fill the glass with another round of milk (and spill again)?

The problem with us Filipinos is that we are not united, never be united..lighting will struck me..that those who voted for trillanes, et al will again turn their backs for support someday..because we see “hero” in them..NOT ON OUR OWN SELF!

kawawa ang pinoy..



Ed Bishop

Hey look. Didn’t Senator Trillanes make an effort to tell gloria about the rotten situation in the military and the country before he toook off with the oakwood thing? Did not gloria keep on “yaking and yaking” according to Senator Trillanes?
Did gloria listen? No. Has anyone had the courage Senator Trillanes had in wanting to tell straight what is happening in the country? No. Why, because the cabinet members are all “Yes Men”. Mga DUWAG at ayaw matanggal sa puwesto itong mga cabinet secretary.

11,000,000 Filipino people listened to Senator Trillanes and they impiedly approved of what he did with their democratic weapon - their votes!



Jonjon

Stupid people always blame Senator Trillanes who exposed corruptions in government, especially in the military, as the cause for economic failures.

For me? I am blaming the government economists especially GMA!!! They are the BIG FAILUREs!!!

IT IS VERY RIGHT AND CORRECT THAT FILIPINOS REWARDED TRILLANES BY ELECTING HIM SENATOR OF THE REPUBLIC!!!



jj

Trillanes in senate? It’s stupid, isn’t it?

But come to think of it, isn’t it more stupid for some people to still not get the point?

The Arroyo government spent too much of money (do your own statistics) to buy votes. Also with the opposition but surely not as much. That’s simple logic as they are in power and if you still are not that ignorant, they give whatever they can promise to the local goverment and the people just to ensure support. You can also tell me if you still think Trillanes had more money than the others to support his bid. So much money + so much connections = ?

Come to think of it, maybe you’re missing something. And it’s the entire point! Many are still arrogant as many administration people are but still as ignorant and stupid as they are.

“GDP = consumption + investment + (government spending) + (exports − imports) Where is the poor again?”
- Who does the most work to make your math work? Maybe you need to review your economics. Who are the arms and legs of the system?
- And hey, poor people also pay taxes whenever they buy anything! The more honest taxes paid are from those people. So never exclude them in any right to choose OUR government. They are a big part of the word OUR! Unless you’re completely an arrogant prick.



Jim Etorma

why reward trillanes? He is a war freak easy to be manipulated. He didn’t do a show in oakwood somebody ordered it. this guy is a troublemaker selfish and wrecking our economy. God bless Philippines .



romdel94

I really doubt Trillanes would win if GMA is not the President anymore. The guy is a shadow of what Gringo is, these coup plotters should be charged with economic sabotage. What they’ve done is beyond repair. I think all of us will agree that there is a problem in GMA administration but coup de tat is not the solution. Trillanes rode the anti-GMA bandwagon, with the impeach GMA slogan…and he won. What a reward indeed…can’t believe we have 10M fools in the country.



OFW in Afghanistan

I will not judge Trillanes for now. The man has suffered enough from the graft and corruption in the military which has the blessing of Gloria Arroyo. I will give him a year and watch closely how he would perform. By then, I will be able to form an opinion about his performance.

Right now, I appreciate him for his courage and his idealism. He is a flicker in the dark. I hope he does not end up like Gringo Honasan.



ako'y pinoy

Tsk! tsk! tsk! didn’t all of you you get the point? Trillanes along with the other GO candidates won because of the opposition’s election batlle cry, ISANG BOTO LABAN SA NAKAUPO! No more - no less.



Sampaloc

Trillanes was not rewarded. Rather, GMA was punished for her oppressive and tyrannical ways.

lalo sigurong masisira ang ulo ninyo kung ang ibinoto ng tao si Tessie aquino Oreta o si Tito Sotto!

Bagamat sa totoo lang, marami sa Pinoy ang ayaw makilahok ng masinsinan sa isyung pangbayan, alam nila ang isyu nila laban kay GMA. Marami ang nagutom sa mga tao sa panahon ng pamamalakad ni GMA. Buhay lang ng mga Congressmen at lahat na malapit kay GMA ang umu-unnlad samantalang ang nakakarami dito sa atin sa Pinas ay nakaranas ng matinding kahirapan.

Noong nakarang taon lang, maliwanag pa sa sikat ng araw ang mga balakyot na galaw ng mga kampon ni GMA na lapain ang ating saligang batas maisulong lang ang pansariling adhikain ni GMA. The same is true when the government made a mince meat of the rights of the people to redress the perceive wrong done to them. The right of the poor to protest and seek redress from the government were blatantly repressed. All the while, si middle class kept in the middle of the road dahil ayaw magkaobligasion sa labas ng pamilya o ibang tao. So, ang ating mga kababayan, tinangap ang bigay na pera ng mga kandidato ni GMA pero hinde ibinoto ang kanyang mga senador.

At sino naman ang magsasabing mali si Pinoy dito? Tayong mga nag-aral at mahilig maghanap ng tama subalit takot naman lumaban ng sabayan sa mga maling alintuntunin na pinaiiral ni GMA? Yung ngang relo na sira, tama parin ng dalawang beses araw-araw , si Pinoy pakaya na mahirap lang subalit buo naman ang kaisipan!



aespi

i don’t think it’s a reward… let’s look at it with a deeper sense of thought.

Hi SALINA, what are you saying??? bringing down the economy after the oakwood??? do you know the figures before that??? actually, no need to look at the figures… it’s obvious.

lets’ be honest… again, the very obvious truth is that GMA is the traitor who succeeded in her own coup d’etat and then cheated to remain in her post. On the otherhand, senator Trillanes was elected by more than 11million people including me, sans costly TV campaign ads, cheating machinery, ‘hello garci’ etc. There is no doubt our votes for him come from our conscience… and when the hearts of the people speak (not few but millions!), it means a lot!! I don’t think you are getting the message…

my country remains poor because we have trapo leaders (who have either paid or cheated their way up) who have been running the country through the years. IT IS TIME that the true voice of the people is heard… let’s start to get rid of these trapos!

principle, idealism and courage are three BIG requirements that our future leaders must possess. Most filipinos have a vision of a country free of corrupt leaders but few have the courage to risk their career or personal happiness for the sake of that vision. Trillanes is one of them.

what do you think of those candidates who have spent hundreds of millions to win a senate seat with a salary less than mine? or yours? who are hypocrites then?

Just a simple but deep thought to ponder on.



rommel buelvo

sabihin nyo naiinggit lang kayo kasi si trillanes nakagawa ng gimik para maging senador. ngayon na senador na siya yayaman na rin siya kahit walang ginagawa. kung gusto nyo maging senador magpacute din kayo at kunwaring magkudeta din.



rotsen

so 10million who voted trillanes expect him to deliver the country to high heavens-honasan , a coup plotter too has made it to the senate-had he done remarkably during his term-hope trillanes will do better-
what do you mean corrupt and bankrupt government of GMA- so all this praises from respectable financing institutions about our growing economy , continous rise of peso and outpouring of investors are all lies afterall.
so GMA is corrupt- this is according to her detractors and easily we get swayed-likewise erap is also corrupt as per his enemies-so people creates the edsa 2- so why blame GMA if erap was jailed-it is you people who really have jailed erap not GMA-
both side accusses it other and we people easily believes without balancing the matters- wala ngang mangyayari sa pinoys.madaling bolahin



Sanny

If i could only place another 1 million votes in my ballot then done.What makes him great is that he touches the heart of he Filipinos.While some of his co “coup-plotters”were already been sold out to the government then he’s not.He stands for the truth.I believed that all of us knew the real situation of the country and those people Trillanes is talking about over and over again.

So to those people, “WATCH OUT”.



aliesh

Living abroad, im seeing Philippines in a different perspective..Philippines is a great country with splendid nature but not blessed with people who really have the true heart for the country whether they are politicians or ordinary citizens. Im sick of reading those dirty words…There is no need to exchange accusations..Lets help our country in whatever good ways we can…



Manny

Trillianes winning the election maybe a protest vote of over 10 million Filipinos and I believe that is a very good exercise of our right. But I also believe the “people’s vote” will be put to waste. Yes it is a big slap in the face of GMA but again for all we know this guy is just like one of them. Remember GMA was likewise instrumental against a corrupt government then. She used an opportunity that brought her to office. Yes to people power through the elections but I just don’t think He’s a good choice considering his inexperience and the way he used the Oakwood Standout as his stepping stone to a position in government. History will repeat itself yet again. Kababayan, bakit hindi tayo matutotuto? Why don’t we vote qualified candidates (who at least has the experience and worked his/her way to public service) who fight for principles not simply because they oppose the current administration?



lea

Mabuhay Pilipinas!!!!!!!!!! wag naman nating husgahan ang tao.Hindi siya ang nagluklok sa sarili niya……… ang taong bayan kaya.Lets wait and see what he can do to our country…….



jung

the posts i have read pose a big challenge to incoming senator trillanes.i don’t know him and i didn’t vote for him but i respect the mandate he got. as they say, better a government run like hell by pinoys rather than a heavenly state run by foreigners. i say to those who work and live abroad that despise mr. trillanes and seem to rejoice in the sufferings of filipinos here, i hope they remain and meddle in their master’s country and keep off our beloved republic.

their sarcasm and conceit have no place in this time of healing and reconciliation.



redline

for those of you living abroad, you speak as if you really know whats happening here, as if you know everything and see us as uneducated dumb fools.

We have all the right to choose whomever we want and wherever the
fate of the country will go.

We are part of every hardship and sacrifice of this country, we have survived all its calamities, economic problems and everything, while you out there went out and became slaves of other race. leave us alone and let us be, we voted for trillanes because we want new alternatives.

And if ever we are wrong, then as filipinos we will survive and we will keep on trying, and should ever this country will fall, we will not leave, we will fight for this country and with heads up high we
will stay in our motherland no matter how life sucks, this is our country!!! and this is our home

GO TRILLANES!!!!! be our voice, we are behind you in election or in revolution



vsandiq

trillanes as the voice of those who can’t speak for themselves? why sirs and madams, our “vote,” and not trillanes, should be THE voice. but then i guess 11 million filipinos have spoken and come hell or high water, trillanes will be a senator.

but going back to the “voice,” if we really do need one, why can’t that voice be a roco, or a paredes, to say the least?

one “post-er” here is right. the voice that we need is not from someone who parades as speaking against the ills of the govenrment. the voice that we need is that of the ballot. we have that power. our vote against the corrupt powers that be came 3 yrs too late. it’s not too late. we will have that power again in 2010. hopefully that time, we will not merely be happy voting for people to fight battles for us ala-proxy. hopefully that time, we can fight and win the battle, having finally understood the immense power our our voice - the ballot.

Trillanes is not my voice… but im keeping my eyes peeled. he may yet surprise me.

EDITORIAL

One thing that Gloria and her spin masters have failed to grasp in the strong message sent by the national electorate via the ballot in the last polls, which translated to a resounding slap on Gloria and her Malacañang, is that their propaganda isn’t credible and just doesn’t work with the Filipino people.

Check on the election propaganda line of the Team Unity (TU) bets. Just what spin were they mouthing, if not the need for the election of an administration Senate to continue with the gains of the economy brought about by Gloria; to solidify the achievements of Gloria Arroyo; to do away with the coups d’etat and destabilization attempts by the opposition whom they claimed were out to oust Gloria unconstitutionally; to forget the past and do away with the allegations of lying, cheating and stealing, which the TU bets claimed were not valid election issues, and for the nation to unite and move on.

These were the Gloria team’s issues, and all of them have been repudiated by the electorate with the landslide victory of the opposition senatorial candidates.

The propaganda spewed by the administration was for the electorate to vote for them, to enable the nation to continue with Gloria’s economic progress, yet the electorate voted for the Genuine Opposition (GO) instead. What does this translate to, if not that they don’t buy Gloria’s economic gains spin and that the opposition is not the cause of the economic maladies suffered by the people who don’t buy the Gloria spin on the e-VAT as a “social payback” of the administration to the impoverished Filipinos.

The fact that a reelectionist senator, Ralph Recto, lost miserably, even in his hometown, is a clear repudiation of the e-VAT being extracted by the government from the people. A submessage would also be that the electorate also rejects the business sector’s views for the country and the economic and even political measures it has been pushing, including the e-VAT.

As an aside, those business groups that had earlier claimed to have been turned off by the refusal of the opposition candidates to appear in a debate sponsored by the business community, saying the opposition candidates lost the opportunity to get the business sector to back up their candidacies, must also have realized by now that they don’t quite count, when it comes to elections. Even worse for some of them, since many business groups closed the money faucet on many of the opposition bets, they will now be having more difficulty to get the senators to support their business measures. Too many of those business groups-supported candidates lost the race.

As for the spiel of the TU bets on the opposition being a destabilizing factor, that too, has been repudiated by the electorate, as shown not only through the victory of “coup poster boy” Antonio Trillanes IV but also that Francis Escudero and Panfilo Lacson were the second and third highest senators, which point to the rejection of the electorate of the Palace spin that the cheating, lying and stealing issues must be put to rest. It was Escudero who stood for the impeachment of Gloria twice and it was Lacson who has been plugging for probes into the Pidal and “Hello Garci” issues to seek a closure. They won big, which shows again that the propaganda of the TU just isn’t being bought by the people.

More telling is that the Malacañang spiel of uniting the nation and for the people to move on has also been soundly rejected, as only two administration bets made it to the Senate, and all those Gloria bets who were so identified with her lost, while those who were perceived by her as her foes, won.

An even more fatal mistake made by these TU bets who lost resoundingly was that they kept on with the black propaganda against detained President Joseph Estrada, who stood as the symbol of the opposition.

It had already been established in the early Metro Manila surveys, that Estrada enjoyed a 52-percent positive endorsement factor, and his endorsements were working to the benefit of the GO candidates — including the mayoralty posts in greater Manila. His endorsement factor of some 36 percent nationwide is nothing to sneeze at, and these areas were the very places where the TU bets were weak.

Just look where it got Chavit Singson, who was at the bottom of the list. He kept up with his tirades against Estrada. The others who did the same didn’t make it either.

Yet the Palace propaganda machine continues to churn out the same stuff, and the same unity call, the latest of which was the call of Gloria before Congress to put the past behind and move on.

They still don’t get it. Neither the country nor the nation can unite and move forward as long as Gloria Arroyo remains in Malacañang, along with her brand of dirty politics.

Yep! You got that right!

‘He said his winning … was a statement from the people that they want change.’

Trillanes keeps the
fire burning

Senator-to-be Antonio Trillanes IV of the Genuine Opposition does not disappoint those who trace the mess that this country is in to the illegitimacy of the Arroyo presidency.

Foremost, he never refers to Arroyo as “president”. Just plain Gloria Arroyo.

In his interview last Monday with ABS-CBN’s Ces Drilon, the first after he was granted post-election media access, he said he would work for the impeachment of Gloria Arroyo.

This categorical declaration, at this time when some of the opposition senators-elect are taking a magnanimous attitude towards the Arroyo, has elicited strong reactions.

It’s perfectly okay with me because I believe that no one who was ever elected by the people should hold the presidency. Given the many crimes against the Filipino people that Arroyo has committed, I believe such an undertaking is long overdue.

But I know of others who want a respite from wearying political hostilities. There is also the aspect that he was elected senator (I’m presuming that he will soon be proclaimed senator because he won) who would only be able to participate in an impeachment process if the Senate is convened as an impeachment court. An impeachment complaint is initiated in the House of Representatives.

Ces asked, given that the numbers in the Lower House do not favor of the opposition, would he still pursue his advocacy of Gloria Arroyo’s impeachment?

Trillanes’ reply: “The impeachment advocacy has been my campaign line because I believe that’s the only way for this country to move forward. We have lined up several legislative proposals which require primarily executive action. We can’t possibly expect these policies to be implemented by such a corrupt president. So I’m being straightforward to the people that we can’t do much as long as we have GMA as president.”

He said his winning the senate race despite all the odds – in detention, lack of funds, very few TV ads – was a statement from the people that they want change.

He sees the lack of numbers among the congressmen now as surmountable. He said his senatorial win broke several conventions in Philippine politics. “We have done practically the impossible. It shows it can be done.”

He elaborated how he is going to go about it. “If I can convince people to vote for me, I believe I can also convince congressmen to support impeachment. Or I can convince sectors of society to convince congressmen to support impeachment.”

In a separate interview with DZMM’s Anthony Taberna and Gerry Baja yesterday, he expressed the desire to be part of the Blue Ribbon and the Defense committees. I can imagine that through investigation in aid of legislation, he would be able to uncover more impeachable crimes committed by Arroyo.

Trillanes told Ces Drilon that impeaching Arroyo “is the only way to go. And I will keep on delivering that message. We can have change now, outside Gloria and move forward to progress. Or we can tolerate three years of what we have now with Gloria at the helm.”

He pursued the same line in his answer to ANC’s Ricky Carandang, who joined the interview from the studio. Asked about his legislative agenda, Trillanes replied that the legislative agenda he presented to the people necessitates the removal of Arroyo. He cited his anti-corruption position: “You cannot possibly expect and anti-corruption legislation to be implemented by a corrupt president. We have to be real about the situation.”

He said it’s the same thing in the areas of peace and order. He disclosed that he is in the process of conceptualizing a comprehensive Mindanao peace plan that will include conflict resolution, infrastructure development, enhanced economy and social services. “We can’t have this under GMA because GMA is the one responsible for the endless war in Mindanao. She had her chance. For six years, she mismanaged the country and right now, she can’t possibly say anything as regards the Mindanao war because she’s the one who perpetuated it.”

It will be recalled that when Trillanes and some 300 soldiers belonging to the Magdalo staged what is now referred to as the Oakwood mutiny on July 27, 2003, they disclosed the Greenbase documents which exposed the plan of Arroyo and her national security officials to control Mindanao for business interests.

To those who are concerned that he would not be a fair and impartial judge in case of an impeachment trial against Arroyo, he explained that impeachment is a political trial whose end is not criminal conviction but a change in political leadership.

“So the ultimate judgment is based not only on the overall political assessment (but also) of whether it is in the best interest of the country for the accused public official to continue serving in government.”

Four years of detention has not doused the fire of idealism that we saw in Oakwood. I like what I’m seeing.

I’m fed up with these protest votes claim. There never was a so called protest votes. There are more non-thinking votes that intelligent votes. Thinking voters who voted for Trillanes had a reason and the rest had none. Anyone who thinks that Filipinos are now smart voters belongs to the opposition and they are fantasizing. The administration knew that voters are still stupid, but they never expected them to be that dumb. Secret, all you need is one million morons to get Arroyo out of office. Trillanes had 12 million. You do the math. Honasan got more votes than Trillanes. What does that tell you? The media will soon have a field day with Trillanes for his big mouth. This person is one of the dumbest I have ever heard. Hey Trillanes, GDP does not include the poor. GDP = consumption + investment + (government spending) + (exports − imports) Where is the poor again?

The comment above is one of the dumbest I’ve ever read. Does this self-proclaimed economic genius think that the the poor is not part of the consumption component of his definition of GDP, no matter how small? What a jerk!

Para sa mga di naniniwalang may PROTEST VOTE, isa ako sa magpapatunay sa inyo na mayroon nito. Wala akong ibinoto mula sa TU kahit na di ko nakompleto ang dapat ay 12 senador na aking iboboto. Bakit? Dahil iyon lang ang paraan ko para i-reject ang bogus na presidenteng nakaupo ngayon sa Malacanang. Sa totoo lang, kung mayroon lang masasamahang magpapabagsak kay GMA, baka sumama na rin ako sa kanila. Pero paano mangyayari iyon, na-corrupt na ni GMA ang lahat ng sangay ng gobyerno natin lalung-lalo na ang AFP na dapat sana ay tagapagtanggol ng taongbayan. Pero si GMA ang pinoprotektahan. I would rather be a peacemaker than a peacekeeper. Ibig sabihin, pag mali, mali. Pag tama, tama. Kung ikaw ay nandaya, hindi ka dapat makaupo sa puwesto. Gets nyo?

Only in the Philippines. Goes to show how “educated” our pinoy voters are. In order to be elected as a senator, one has to commit crimes, stage a coup, be friends with drug lords, be a “respected” actor, etc. In short, be famous or “infamous”, and you’ll be a senator. These people know that pinoys are sick of the way things are no matter who the president is, and they fan the flames by grandstanding in public and attacking the current administration. Take Peter Allan Cayetano, people wouldn’t have recalled his name if he didn’t attack Mike Arroyo with those bank accounts… Trillanes, on the other hand did another Honasan, and thanks to the media, became a symbol of protest. Notwithstanding his “capability”… these coup adventurists are the reason why I moved out of the country in the first place…. The first coup by Honasan, left me without any job offers, considering that a week before the coup, there were lots of jobs for me back then… After the bloody coup (where Noynoy was also shot by Honasan’s men - What’s up with Noynoy, cavorting with the enemy??? - that’s another story btw) , jobs vanished, companies moved out of the phils., and people reward him by electing him senator… all the while boasting that “he is the saviour” etc…

Only in the Philippines, where criminals facing jail time, can run for office (due to our lengthy appeals system, they are not disqualified for office yet), get special treatment, and eventually, grabs a “get-out-of-jail” card…

Lt. Trillanes III is not languishing in jail because of our “lengthy appeals system”. Fact is, no case has been filed against them because the preliminary investigation found no basis to file charges of rebellion against them. Only the hard-headedness of Gen. Esperon is keeping them in jail.



Riva Ridge II

From Lito: i don’t think trillanes is showing us his true colors of a clean image as compared to cleansing the arroyo administration by impeacment. because he himself aligned with a “more” corrupt leader in the person of erap. at his young age i found him a hypocrite. he really has ambition. and he will fulfill that ambition at whatever cost. now it can be told that the main reason why he staged that infamous oakwood mutiny is to let himself known and be with people he is accusing of. why? is the senate that clean? and how clean was he when he was a soldier? so young and yet so hypocrite?

From Riva Ridge II: I don’t think Erap is more corrupt than the present admministration, not by a longshot. In fact, most of the respected writers of our time thinks that this administration is giving the late President Marcos a run for his money when it comes to corruption, not to mention violation of human rights.

Malacañang urges DoJ: Pursue Trillanes’ conviction

06/10/2007

Malacanang yesterday said the winning Genuine Opposition (GO) senatorial bet Navy Lt. Sr. Grade Antonio Trillanes IV should be prosecuted to the hilt for “masterminding” a mutiny against President Arroyo in 2003.

In a phone interview, presidential legal counsel Sergio Apostol said although Trillanes appears to be winning in the senatorial race, he is still answerable to the rebellion case he has been facing since July 2003, for the foiled mutiny of the Magdalo group at the posh Makati Oakwood hotel where he called for the resignation of Mrs. Arroyo and then Department of National Defense Secretary Angelo Reyes.

“The DoJ (Department of Justice) should further tighten the noose and seriously pursue the investigation on Trillanes even if he becomes a senator,”Apostol said.

The presidential aide said they are supportive of DoJ Secretary Raul Gonzales who expressed belief that the rebel soldier should still be tried along with other fellow mutineers even if he is elected as a senator.

“Being a senator does not exempt him (Trillanes) from prosecution that’s why we’re giving the DoJ the go signal to do what is right to prove that he would be found guilty in court over the rebellion cases he had been facing,” he said.

Apostol added they are carefully monitoring Trillanes, who had earlier announced intention to oust Mrs. Arroyo from power through another impeachment.

“ He (Trillanes) has been calling for the downfall of this government, so let the proper authorities evaluate his statement, we will see if he will do something regarding his threat,” the Palace official said.

Earlier, National Security Adviser Norberto Gonzales said they are disturbed by Trillanes’ threat to oust Mrs. Arroyo and free his comrades involved in February 2006 rebellion.

“We’re really dismayed on his (Trillanes) pronouncement. It’s now very clear that he has no platform of governance when he ran and won the Senate seat but to destabilize the Arroyo presidency,” he said.

Gonzales indirectly bashed at the electorate whom he charged of ridiculing the polls by voting for Trillanes.

“We don’t call it an indication that our people are mad and disgusted at President Arroyo, nor (is it) a sign that they want her out of office, rather we view it as a ridicule vote of our electoral system by voting for Gringo Honasan and now Trillanes in the Senate,” he said.

Gonzales, however, expressed relief that Honasan vowed, right after he was granted bail over charges of rebellion, that he would cease from destabilizing the Arroyo presidency.

Trillanes earlier stressed his co-officers and the others who are now under detention over accusation of rebellion do not deserve to go to jail, saying “Other people deserve to go to jail, not they.”

Trillanes also vowed to support efforts to push Mrs. Arroyo’s impeachment, on grounds that she had misappropriated government funds to finance the campaign of the Team Unity candidates.

“I believe we can clinch the required number of congressmen to impeach her. The only way for this country to move forward is to move President Arroyo out of the way,” he said. Sherwin C. Olaes

Look who’s talking. Gloria Arroyo, The one should be in jail for what she did. Go ahead and impeach her its overdue! She should never be in malacanyang palace if our justice system is not corrupted.



Riva Ridge II

Senator-elect Trillanes deserves his seat in the Senate because he got the mandate from the more than 10 million Filipino people who voted for him, against all odds and black propaganda thrown against his campaign by those in power without any mandate from the people.

That is democracy. And to question that is to question the will of GOD, because as a popular latin passage says, THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE IS THE VOICE OF GOD (vox populi vox dei).



Butchie

Please be careful when you call the Filipino voters DUMB. They are not. They are victims of the corrupt system. Trillanes had no means of manipulating the election results. The people spoke their minds. You call that DUMB? I call it a desperate move. They’ll take their chances on this guy, because he’s a big question mark to them. Those in power are proven. They are corrupt and don’t care about them.
I don’t think they are dumb when they didn’t vote for Aquino-Oreta, Montano, Sotto, Gomez, et al. The election results may not be perfect, but majority of the people who made it to the top 12 are qualified to be there. I think, the dumb Senators (Lapid, Jinggoy, Revilla, etc) that are currently in the Senate should start worrying because the people are not as dumb anymore as they would like them to be.

Village chiefs give Cebu mayor ‘vote of confidence’

CEBU CITY — Keeping their distance from colleague Mary Ann de los Santos, majority of Cebu City’s barangay chiefs gave Saturday Mayor Tomas Osmeña and the City Council their “vote of confidence” in the Lahug Elementary School building controversy.

Pinoy Votes: Sun.Star Election 2007 Coverage

View here the list of local winners

Congressmen Raul del Mar (north district) and Antonio Cuenco (south district) took the same stand.

“We join you in giving the mayor and the City Council a vote of confidence on their decision on Lahug’s school building, as well as the new issue on Fuente Osmeña,” del Mar said.

He spoke before over 60 of 80 barangay captains gathered in Saturday’s Association of Barangay Councils (ABC) second general assembly.

“If the mayor says we don’t build a school building in Lahug, so be it,” said Pahina Central Barangay Captain and ABC vice president Sisinio Andales, who moved that they approve a resolution “supporting the stand of Mayor Tomas Osmeña and the City Council.”

The village officials unanimously agreed to support the mayor and the council on the decision to stop the school construction, and the Capitol’s threat to get back the Fuente Osmeña rotunda from the City.

In a radio dyLA interview, de los Santos said she was disappointed with del Mar, a Lahug resident, for not taking a stand or at least expressing his view immediately after Osmeña stopped the construction the other Friday.

“I’m sad kay siya nagpuyo sa Barangay Lahug. Bisan gamay nga estorya wala gyud. Kana prangka nakong estorya, maong dako nakong kahi-ubos (He never said a word. Frankly, I am dismayed by his stance),” she said.

In the same interview, the Lahug barangay chief said only “divine intervention” would make the mayor stop running after Lahug, and that she will never turn over the amount she raised to City Hall.

After meeting with Osmeña Wednesday night, Vice Mayor Michael Rama said the council members agreed to just leave the matter to the mayor, trusting that he is doing what is best for the city.

The barangay chiefs’ resolution was approved on mass motion just as the mayor entered the assembly venue at Tambuli Beach Resort Saturday.

“We gave a vote of confidence regarding the matter,” Guadalupe Barangay Captain and ABC president Eugenio Faelnar told Osmeña as he approached the presidential table.

The resolution was greeted with applause from Barangay Captain Alvin Arcilla of Talamban, where the mayor said the school building would be built instead.

Last Friday, the mayor said a school building will still be built in Lahug, using the money de los Santos has raised.

The City Government, he said, will give whatever additional amount is required to finish the building, but only after de los Santos hands the donations over to the City.

However, Osmeña told the barangay chiefs not to pay any attention to the Lahug issue, saying it is just “intramurals” brought about by de los Santos’ “lies.”

De los Santos distributed a letter to her constituents during the election period, telling them that City Hall has not given any help “in any manner” to Lahug.

Osmeña said that made him angry, so he decided to stop the 20-classroom school building’s construction after the contractor destroyed an old structure supposedly to give way to the new.

He said that majority of the City’s asphalting projects, for example, went to Lahug, particularly the Beverly Hills area.

He also told the barangay chiefs that the City’s Kaohsiung buses have made 480 trips to Lahug alone, and that he even handed to de los Santos P20,000 in personal funds, as assistance to a slain barangay tanod.

(The mayor, though, did not state from when he reckoned the figure on the Kaosiung buses’ trips to the barangay.)

Also, the mayor said he has enough funds for school buildings because his brother, Sen. Sergio “Serge” Osmeña III, gave to City Hall half of his P200-million Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) this year.

And of the P100 million, P75 million was already in the City’s hands, and will solely be used in putting up school buildings, he added.

In the same assembly, Rama said the problem should be solved without involving politics and persons who just wanted to ride on the issue by using the children.

Del Mar, on the other hand, said he was satisfied after the mayor told him that he (Osmeña) really had no intention of denying Lahug Elementary School a school building.

He said the mayor’s ultimate decision is to proceed with the construction, which was just delayed because of political reasons.

He refused to comment further on the mayor’s actions, saying different leaders have their own approaches in dealing with situations. (Sun.Star Cebu)

Hirap sa ibang tao akala sila lang ang may alam sa mundo, I voted for Trillanes, so anong pakialam mo, pinakialaman ko ba if you voted for Garcilliano?



Abner Lumabas

Trillanes generates excitement. It is debatable if the Oakwood mutiny was self-serving or a genuine act of patriotism by an idealistic group of young officers. The mere fact that Trillanes continues to defy what he perceives as an immoral regime while others capitulated is generating more excitement. I do not subscribe to the idea that the munity is most damaging to our economy. The economic albatross is is still corruption and unfair explotation of natural and human resources. Investors will not make our country great, its is the real stake holders who make this country great. Make an atmosphere of greatness and the people will be great. Give us a government that wouold be accountable to people and not to investors. Trillanes may or may not lead us to the promise land. But at least he stir up our imagination that all is not lost and changes may still be forthcoming.

People still don’t get it ! Trillanes along with the other GO candidates won because of their effective campaign slogan : ” ISANG BOTO LABAN SA NAKAUPO ! ” . Whether we like or not , that did it.

People always miss the point. Trillanes is there because 10 million of us want to tell this government that this country needs a voice every now and then, someone to voice our anger with the state of governance in this country. That it is our hope that all regardless of what political fence they are in should be made accountable to the havoc they have made on our lives by their stealing and corruption. He is only one of our voices which we desperately want to get accross those people who until now are betrayed by those who lead them but do not really care for them. We, the 10 million of us who voted for him would like to tell this country that we would wish that those who are corrupt must be tried and convicted for their wrongs. Those people who think otherwise should examine what they want because this is what we want. Hope there are more Trillanes out there. God help us.

We vote for Capt. Trillines, Because she speak for the filipino people who can’t speak for themselves. We vote for him because we all believe on his fight to better the Philippines. We vote for him because we want change, Change for a better Philippines. WE don’t know what he can do but we are welling to take that change because if we don’t under Gloria Arroyo, Mas lalo kami aapihin. We are put our faith on him. Hoping that he can make a different. Thats a gamble we have to take if we all want change for a better Philippines.

So, Capt. Trillines, Please don’t let us down. We are counting on you to protect and serve the filipino people to best of your ability. Thank you!

This election, few might have realized, but the majority of the AFP soldiers and officers gave a strong support to Trillanes, who stood for thier cause. “Getting rid” of the CURRIPT “commander-in chief” and the “generals” who PIMPS thier lowly subordinates.

From Lulu: If you insist that GMA is a bogus president, simply because of a corrupted “Garci” tape that will not stand in court (and for which no final resolution in the legislative has been made, despite grandstanding of both congressmen and senators, squezzing to the last drop of blood whatever publicity the issue can generate), why dont you people be the one to work for its final resolution. Let’s bring GMA down with the Garci tape, with all proper evidence and in the proper courts. Tama na ang basta pag-aakusa na lang.

From Riva Ridge II: That is exactly the purpose why the opposition had been mounting one impeachment case after another in the Lower House, only to be frustrated time and again by the sheer tyranny of numbers of those congressmen who had been bribed by GMA.

Based on the results of nationwide surveys conducted by respected firms like SWS showing the people to have been disillusioned with GMA after the “Garci tapes”, these congressmen could not have been voicing out the sentiment of those they are supposed to represent!

This is also the reason why GMA was more concerned about retaining the numbers in the Lower House than in the Senate race in the last elections. With the expected impeachment complaint being nipped in the bud at the Lower House, there was no worries on whether the Senate is pro-admin or pro-opposition.

Let’s hope and pray that the challenge thrown at JDV by those who would like Rep. Garcia to replace him as Speaker of the House would change the equation, breaking the fragile pro-admin coalition in the Lower House. GMA wants JDV out because she does not intend to keep her promise to JDV that he will be Prime Minister when the form of government is changed. She will break this promise and get herself proclaimed as Prime Minister after 2010, the same way she broke her promise not to run in the 2004 presidential elections, and went on to steal the presidency a second time.

Palace backs JdV’s revived Cha-cha push
Speaker’s move jibes with GMA’s ‘top-priority’ agenda

2007/06/10

Malacañang has announced its support for Speaker Jose de Venecia’s intention to revive his Charter change (Cha-cha) advocacy because it still remains on the so-called top-priority agenda of President Arroyo.

Secretary to the Cabinet Ricardo Saludo, during an interview, yesterday said backing such move from De Venecia will help improve the country.

“If (Cha-cha) can be done in a way that unifies our nation, then it can lay the foundation for greater stability, cohesion and responsiveness to the people’s needs,” Saludo added.

Presidential legal counsel Sergio Apostol, for his part, is banking on the Speaker delivering on his reported plan to resurrect Cha-cha seeking amendment..

Former president Ramos was the only productive coup plotter, I must admit. He’s not perfect and committed errors but nevertheless he steered the country to greater heights when he was given the chance to serve the country. And it’s a fact. As for Honasan, he stattered the country’s economy in 1987 and in 1989. He was given the chance to prove himself when elected senator but contributed nothing. Laway lang, puro salita. Same goes with Trillanes. The Oakwood event somewhat stopped the economy. Although my conscience tells me not to trust this guy, what can I do, 10million people do trusted him. Let’s give him a chance and let’s see how productive he can get in the senate.

Since Trillanes was voted by the people, let us give him the benefit of a doubt. On the other hand, let us just support the incumbent government so we will not mess up the economy of our country. Because as we all know that there is a saying in filipino that says: “Ang magnanakaw ay galit sa kapwa magnanakaw” and the famous CRAB mentality. So this feeling of hatred to will not benefit anyone in our beloved country. Let us just find some ways to help our government by not adding more crooks and goons.

May God bless the Filipinos.

Thanks!

Why reward Trillanes?…

He is deserving kasi sya lang ang kandidatong kaunti lang GASTOS sa Election compare to Admin guys na sobra ang GAsto sa Election… BAbawiin din nila yan sa atin… At isa pa alam nya ang nag yayari sa LOOB ng AFP, dito nga sa amin AFP pa ang nag bebenta sa mga gamit ARMAS sa mga kalaban(rebel) kaya dapat natin syang ibuto para masugpo na ang grabiiiiiiiiiiiing katiwalian hindi lang sa hanay ng AFP pati na sa Gobyerno natin… Bakit katangahan bang mamalaman ng mamayan natin ang katutuhanan? Im Glad na Marami na palang Gumising sa katutuhanan… GO Trillanes…



Butch Ovenson

I really pity our understanding of politics. Politics if used properly is the light that will guide our economy and future. However, rewarding people whose ambition is for selfless motive is totally wrong. The implication of a Trillanes victory is very bad for the Philippines. People will just try their luck in mounting a miltary takeover and if unsuccessful will just run for a public office and if they win will just absolve them of all the wrong doings. I thought that for yu to be eligible to even run for a public office is that you should be clean of any crime? Just asking?



reasons

people nowadays vote by their emotions leaving logic and reason behind, poor filipinos if they only had the time to read the news from the newspapers or the internet except for tv, which we all agree to be totally bias, they could have been more informed about the candidates agenda. a wise voter would deal like this, i choose a lesser evil, i choose because of his public service record, i choose for his platform.

do you think the the genuine opposition would be genuine enough to be unified in the senate, personal interest will be their number one priority. they will leave erap after using him as public mascot. legarda, escudero, lacson, villar, pangilinan etc… will run for the highest position in the land on 2010! stupid filipinos, the moment the senate starts, GO will no longer be GO, they will only be unified against the administration because that’s the only way they can be popular! i tell you they will criticize each other, what happens to erap… he will be left behind because no one wants to be associated to a leader with bad records.

to all those filipinos who are saying that the economy is not improving, well you are totally blind. philippine economy is improving inch by inch, study the statistics of every index of the philippine economy, the least thing that the filipino can do is to give credit to the president eventhough she is not perfect, (who is?) why can’t we feel the improving economy? well lets put it this way, if your dad had a 200 wage increase and you have two siblings. would you expect your allowance to increase that much?



Alain

gamitan lang kasi yan..

tingnan mo si escudero at cayetano, ginamit si first gentleman at ang gobyerno para manalo.. konting media exposure na lang ang kailangan during election period kasi exposed na sila for the past 3 years bilang “BOSES” daw ng mamayanan..

Like trillanes, Si GMA at AFP naman ang sa kanya..

yan ang tinatawag poltical strategy..

malayo ang eleksyun pero may lamang na sila.. kung sa parliamentary system yan, for sure hindi yan mangyayari..

magCHA-CHA na lang tayo.. by all means.. mapaCON-ASS man or mapaCONCON..

I ‘ll rather wave my right to vote kasi nakaksuka na ang eleksyun sa Pinas..

I am on Koh Samui, Thailand at the moment. I wish to recall the active generation I had from 1986 onward. Nothing changed, from the event of killing the true future leader, Mr. Ninoy Aquino right down thru this very moment, when Trillanes is chosen as one of the top leaders of my loving country.

I just hope, you will publish my comment to your website as I’ve been longing to scream out what I feel for my citizenry and to my country, since I was young joining the demonstration against abusive and corrupt government leaders (hopeless case).

To all my fellow Filipinos, I suggest, do the best you can for your self, for your fellow citizen and for your country. Just accept that you belong to the nation with brilliant leaders used to enrich themselves alone. Depend not to the government as they never think about you, they think about their pocket and their popularity. It’s a disease, whoever seeks to join the government forces, they are infected with the virus.

Anyway, Let us just give Sgt. Trillanes the benefit of the doubt. Let him prove his capacity, anyway we’ll decide for him in the future. That’s the only power we have. let us use it before we lose it.

“Gising na bayan ko sa matagal na pagkakagapos, minsan ka ng bumangon at lumaban, muli mong buhayin at kalasin ang tanikala ng pang aabuso at kahirapan.”

Trillanes winning the senatorial election only reflects the truly filipino traits “hilig tayo sa celebrities”,hindi lang mga movie stars,kung sino ang ma feature palagi sa TV, siya yung ginagawang hero. Kung yung F4 noon, nagtry sa senado sigurado panalong lahat. Si Escudero at Cayetano based on the report ni isa raw na bill walang nagawa, pero lagi sa TV, saan sila ngayon di ba senator na? Yung mga coup plotters, di ba senators na rin?

Isa pa itong media laging survey nang survey lagi ang ipa-frontpage ang results against the admin, eh yung mga nagawang mabuti hindi palaging na feature, kung ma-feature nandoon sa kabilang page.

Kung sino sino na ang naging presidente sige lang nang sige ang bira, na wala daw ginagawa ang gov’t.

Ang mabuti na tulungan na lang natin ang sino mang presidente ang nakaupo. Hindi puro satsat ng satsat.

The trillanes’ legitimacy as a real policital leader who can push for the proper reforem he has espoused will be put to the test once the senate starts. I just hope he learns na di nakukuha sa dahas ang tuhay na pagbababgo. Makakamit lang ito kung siya mismo magbabago. Mukhang di naman siya nagbabago. Mayabang pa rin ang bunganga. Tulad ni Cayetano. Pero at least, Trillanes has more sense that Cayetano, who has no real legislative record to speak of in Congress apart from a failed expose. Sana di lang niya sisipa-sipain and ibang tao para makuha ang power. Ganyan ang ginawa ni Cayetano, he rode on the shoulders of Mike Arroyo. Ampaw na senador siya.

A Trillanes win in the senatorial election is not a reward…I believe in his principle of fighting corruption in the government of a bogus President Arroyo…A Trillanes win is much better that a Singson….or other TRAPO in the senate where we all know for sure what kind of people they are. A true blooded warrior..I know he will deliver as a senator and the 10 millions votes he got from the people will not go in vain. Enough for those politicians who have already enriched themselves while in office…enough with those parasites who are just waiting for their next victims in the form of peoples money…Our country has already suffered so much…No 1 in corruption, no. 2 in human rights violation, etc…So, for those people who believe that Trillanes should not be in the senate, well, Philippines is a democratic country…Everyone is entitled to run during the election…so, why not try to seek public office…and I am sure, you wont get a single vote…I believe Trillanes made a right choice…Let be the hall of senate be the voice of the people who voted you…

Daks

As a brother of Trillanes’ co-accused in the Oakwood Mutiny, I am suppose to side with him but let the public know: I did not vote for him, nor did my brother or majority of the officers and gentlemen that used to belong to the Magdalo group. Trillanes’ candidacy is his alone. I don’t know why he did it but definitely he didn’t do it for the Filipino people or even for his comdrades in arms. For the naive Filipinos who voted for him, I hope you can visit his cell in Fort Bonifacio. You will be shocked to see it Airconditioned, with his own maid and a boy around and his Family living with him. I hate the cheater in who call herself President but that does not mean I will automatically love the people who share the same hatred.

4 Salina, i think you’re a die hard fan of trillianes, coz you promoted him to capt. i thought he is Lt. triallianes. Also, pambihira naman ang honest politician sa pinas. To enter politics in the Phils. kailangan meron kang mga kabit, also dapat corrupt ka, kung hindi paano mo babawiin ang milyon-milyon mong ginastos. alam mo ba kung gaano kalaki ang pork barrel ng mga senador, im sure alam mo ang ibig sabihin ng SOP. 25% kay senador, 25% kay sec. 25% sa contractor at 25% sa project AYOS! yan ang ibig sabihin ng SOP in the Philippines. I think Trillianes is too agressive, kasi di pa siya umuupo binibira na niya ang mga general. impeachment agad ang nasa utak niya. think of what you’re going to do with the country first. Also magtaglish ka na rin kasi palpak din naman ang english mo.

To Junbug,
Ang yabang mong magsalita tungkol sa pag-eenglish ni Trillanes e sa mga sinulat mo mukhang daig kapa ng Grade 1 student. Alam mo ba kung anong natapos ni Trillanes? Kung hindi mo alam ang pinanggalingan ni Trillanes ay kailangan mo lang na i research sa internet at makikita mo na baka ni dulo ng daliri ni Trillanes ay di mo maabot. Eto yung website, http://www.friendster.com/trillanes and all you have to do is copy and paste it para makita mo. Kung di mo alam kung paano magresearch just reply back and I will help you out ok? Kung ayaw mo namang mag patulong sa akin e baka matulungan ka ni Chavit, Pichay, Kiram, Defensor, Recto, Oreta, Montano,
Zubiri, Sotto and Magsaysay dahil siguradong walang ginagawa yung mga yun kundi magresearch kung paano sila natalo.

He didn’t say that his going to boom the malacanyang palace. I’m pretty sure nothing he can’t handle.

As for Allan Peter C. His an opposition thats their job to fiscalizer. And if Mike Arroyo, Is not guilty of any accusation then he don’t have nothing to worry about. And sign the weaver just to prove the point. But he didn’t. That’s means he’s guilty. KAWATAN.

Then, the we will be famous again, we will have a world record of having two ex-presidents in jail…..Pao

I would love to see this happens. Meanwhile, this regime has not succeeded yet in showing verifyable evidence to support their allegations of plunder against Estrada. It has been six to seven years since then, and to this day, Estrada’s trial is still not done. WHY? Gloria’s fake administration has no case. Her crooked abogagos can not prove their allegations beyond reasonable doubt in the court of justice. Thus, delayed justice is itself an injustice for which Gloria and her supporters will have to pay.

Concentrate on the message, junbug. What’s in a word? It is the spirit of Salina’s message which says…Gloria is not a legit president. She is fake, having grabbed the president’s power from Estrada who was a duly elected president by majority of the Filipinos in the last ever constitutionally held national election. Gloria has been squatting in Malacanang for the last six years without authority from the people. She has never been elected as a president. The last one was a sham, a fraud where she called Garci to pad her votes, which was short in number. Garci cheated and engaged in ‘dagdag-bawas’ which they tried to do again, this May. But, as Lincold said, “”you may fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but “but the midgit by the putrid river” can’t fool all of the people …all the time.” He he he he…..!!!

So, bugos or bogus…wa epek. I am sure you are getting the spirit of this message, as well.

Yes, I agree with you, Abner Lumabas, Trillanes indeed generates a lot of excitement and this blogpost has proven that. Now, for that alone, I would not have doubts how he was able to win most Filipinos’ hearts which Pichay, Singson, Oreta and Sotto were not able to do. He sure knows what is immoral and sticking to this belief is not an easy thing to do if you belong to an institution called the Armed Forces of the Philippines.

I like the way Sampalok has described Filipinos, makes me proud to be one. “Pilipinong buo ang kaisipan”. I am not dumb nor blind to what is going on around me. It is too early to judge Trillanes but there is something about him that tells me that he would be inclined to do what is right.

Truth of the matter is the reason they didn’t let the impeachment trial to finish because they don’t have any solid evidence against him up to date.

Hey look. Didn’t Senator Trillanes make an effort to tell gloria about the rotten situation in the military and the country before he toook off with the oakwood thing? Did not gloria keep on “yaking and yaking” according to Senator Trillanes?
Did gloria listen? No. Has anyone had the courage Senator Trillanes had in wanting to tell straight what is happening in the country? No. Why, because the cabinet members are all “Yes Men”. Mga DUWAG at ayaw matanggal sa puwesto itong mga cabinet secretary.

If is not for the magdalo soldier’s the corruption in AFP. Never come out. Remember Carlos Garcia? I’m sure just about everybody remember him.

Sa ganang akin, hindi niya pwedeng talikuran ang resposibilidad ng pag-aklas sa gobyerno.

Ang batas ay batas. Batas ang nagsisilbing pundasyon sa maayos at mapayapa na bayan.

Mr Trillanes knows the consequences of his action because the law is written in stone.

May kassbihan sa military, “take and take” na lang siya.

the electorate is sending a very, very, very wrong signal to all our military brothers in uniform…..

IF YOUR NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR MILITARY CAREER, GET YOURSELF A POWERFULL BACKER, STAGE A COUP D ETAT AND GET YOURSELF ELECTED AS A SENATOR……

NAKAKATAKOT…… sino ang sisihin natin….. kung bukas si pvt juan de la cruz ang mga coup, sa martes, si corporal andres de saya naman, sa merkules si sgt. palito nuevo, etc. etc….

BAKA PURO COUP PLOTTERS NAMAN ANG PUMALIT SA MGA CELEBRITY SENATORS NATIN…..

ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES DAHIL ITO ANG GUSTO NG MGA NAKAKARAMI SA ATIN TULAD NIYO……

Your right, politics bends a lot morality.
The system itself is bringing the country down. The victory of Trillanes could signal a military coup when you are dissatisfied with other people in higher ranks.



PInoy ito

Get rid of politicians (trapo at iba pa) and the Filipino People will be rewarded. Politicians of both side alike are selfish and corrupt. They don’t deserve any respect. Trillanes is just a representation of a dissatisfied Filipino.



Todits

Lahat ng para kay Trillanes, BUGOK! Ano magagawa ng isang coup plotter sa Senado? Dapat pinagpatuloy na lang niya mga-coup, e naduwag eh; nadala sa paki-usap. Hoy, Trillanes, kapag senador ka na, magcoup ka ha/ at magpabaril para may bago kaming hero na PATAY! Pwe!



juan de la cruz

Trillanes is a disgrace to the men in uniform… If he wanted change to happen, he should have resigned from the service and run for the senate rather than joining a coup. In fact he was not the coup leader, it was Gambala. The military should have gun them down in Oakwood.



juan de la cruz

The general public is not informed of who trillanes really is: I challenge the whole media community to research well.

For some facts: Don’t you know that:

1. He was never a combat soldier. He never had the experience of actual combat, yet he mouths as if he experience the hardship of being fired upon by the enemy of the state. Mga sundalo makinig kayo. He never saw what is really happening in the field.

2. That he is a corrupt person himself. He was a procurement officer of the navy school where he and his boss benefited from thier deals. Ask him personnaly.
3. that he being raised by his mother from the same system he tries to project that he abhors, be it known that his mother was a supplier of military wares from which bribery for supply officers was a part of being in the businesss. Why did he not ask her mother to stop.

4. the failed Oakwood mutiny was fully funded. Where in hell did that fund came from? Of course not from the pockets of captains from the military who receives only 25,000 pesos per month.

5. during this recent election, people testified that they received money for trillanes to be voted for. Again, where did he get that money. From corrupt supporters? Ask it to the marines… friends.
6. leftist organizations supported him, yes because military intelligence know that he has links with the communist. Communist- an idealism discarded by former communist countries, but some of our countrymen believe other wise.

7. That billions of pesos was lost during the 1 day Oakwood incident. Business people in makati can attest.

8.. ETC…ETC…

Now fellow FILIPINOS tell me what kind of senator did you vote for.

TO THE INQUIRER MANAGEMENT: why don’t you publish this in your front page. THIS IS A CHALLENGE.

Ely

To Juan Dela Cruz,
Ano ba ang nagawa ni Trillanes sayo at parang nanggagalaiti ka? Kung meron kapalang alam na katiwalian ni Trillanes e bakit di ka nagsalita nung tumatakbo sya? Sana lumapit ka dun sa mga AFP Generals and tell them everything that you know about Trillanes. Kaso wala ka namang ginawa, and dont you think na kung meron mang baho na itinatago si Trillanes e di gagamitin ng gobyerno at militar yun sa kanya? Sinong ginagago mo sa mga sinulat mo? Also, sabi mo fully funded ang Oakwood mutiny? E ano naman ang kailangang pondohan nila dun sa mutiny na yun e ang mga dala nila e sarili nilang mga gamit at baril. Kakailanganin nila ng pondo kung gumamit sila ng eroplano, helicopter at tanke at nagsimulang magpasabog ng mga infrastructures kaso wala e. So anong pondo ang sinasabi mo? Siguro asar kalang at di nanalo yung binoto mo katulad ni Pichay na isang congressman pero biggest spender last election. Di ba katakataka kung saan nanggaling yung pinanggastos nya? Si Trillanes ang pilit mong tinitira samantalang sya ang may pinaka maliit na nagastos nitong nakaraang halalan. And finally, sabi mo “Ask it to the marines” baka ang gusto mong sabihin ay “Tell it to the Marines”, kung manggagamit ka lang din naman ng quote siguraduhin mong tama yung mga sinasabi mo ok?



Ely

Sa lahat ng asar kay Trillanes,
Bago kayo manghusga kung anong klaseng tao si Trillanes ay tingnan nyo munang mabuti ang sarili nyo sa salamin at itanong sa inyong sarili kung anong nagawa nyo para sa bayan. Kaya nyo bang tumbasan ang nagawa ni Trillanes? Na kahit alam nyang gobyerno ang kalaban nya ay patuloy parin sya sa pagbatikos dito. Kaya nya naman sigurong magpayaman kung naging tiwali sya kaso mas pinili nyang isiwalat ang bulok na sistema ng gobyernong Arroyo. Di sya tumulad dun sa mga kurakot na General na ang tanging nagawa ay magnakaw ng pera ng bayan. Trillanes is a modern day hero and sana marami syang matulungan lalo na ngayong magiging senador na sya. Good luck Sen. Trillanes and may the force be with you.

===========================

Si Gen. Garcia nangurakot ng ilang milyong piso eh binigyan lang ng two years na sintensiya tapos si Senator Trillanes iprinotesta and sentimyento niya laban sa ganitong klaseng kakurakutan sa AFP eh gusto mong ipabaril. Galeng gleng mo rin ano.

Sino ang disgraced, yung mga kurakot na heneral pag mahuli meron lang dalawang taong sintensiya? O ang isang kapitan na isinakripisyo ang kanyang karera sa militar para ilabas ang mga katiwaliang ito?

OFW in Afghanistan

Yes, Juan dela Cruz, mukhang tama si Ely. The TU could have used those issues you listed against him during the election. I thinkTrillanes risked a lot of things, his career, his family, his life… sa mata ng militar the coup was wrong, mali ito because they expect you to follow without asking questions. He actually asked for an audience to people who would probably listen to his concerns about the corrupt practices in the military. He was just ignored because the people he complains of are those who receives the good graces of Malacanang.

Not all of us can risk our life. Trillanes did. He had a lot to lose. Just like Gambala, he could have recanted his statements pero the guy is so solid in his convictions. These are, to me, indications of potentially inclining towards what would be good for the rest of the Filipinos.

drhenry4

To Juan de la Cruz
What was revealed regarding Trillanes is tough. Two things, either one will follow through it because he is against Trillanes, or just simply ignore it because he is a fanatic. The main thing is even if they are not proven to be true neither they are proven to be falsified. One cannot simply just say it is falsified because he “sacrificed” a lot. The big question still is, if he is sacrificing for the country and not for purely self-interest, why fight Arroyo only? THE CORRUPTION IN THE AFP HAS BEEN THERE SINCE MARCOS AND IT IS CONTINUOUS FOR YEARS EVEN AFTER GEN. GARCIA WAS SENTENCED. Everybody has noticed the General’s sentence was “too light” compared to what he had plundered. And the CORRUPTION GOES BEYOND AFP AND THE GOVERNMENT. If one would follow the paper trail, money flowed even on the hands of bank managers of big private institutions. Corruption is in the society, others with consent, others left with no choice. Don’t be narrow-minded that Arroyo has all the influence because he is the President. In reality, this syndicate wanted her assassinated.
Another question is, why would he really sacrifice his time, family and rank? For the country? Too noble. That’s why many admire him. But the act is still dubious, and the fact that he is now a politician adds more doubts; plus he allowed Erap to help him; and he wouldn’t push his lawyer to pull him out from his present prison cell given the “benefits” he is now having. I would understand that he prefers staying with where he and his family are now, the security that he wants.
An example, one package of “wheels” (I am not familiar with the right term) for planes of PAL that had been tracked illegally sold and transferred to Switzerland worth almost an hundred million pesos. Upon tracing the paper trail, an unfamiliar name of a general in AFP popped up. Newly hired internal auditors of PAL resigned after the briefing. They didn’t want there lives to be at mess with this syndicate. This is just a tip of the ice berg guys.

kim

To Juan Dela Cruz,

these are my answers to your mail. pls. read carefully.

1. would you believe that a marine soldier and an officer have no experience in the combat operations. tell that to the marines!

2. the reason Capt. Trillanes and his Co. revolted bec. of the day-light corruption of the generals in the military. all the supplies procured by the generals were all under-quality and as such the men in the field are the ones who suffered most.

3. how can you say that a sin of a parents is also a sin of the children. did you heared of cases filed against his mother for graft practices?

4. the failed coup mutiny was not funded by any politicians. it was the low profile and under-privileged soldiers who initiated bec of the rampant corruption in the military.

5. in the election there are funds contributed by mostly anonymous donors. but Trillanes didn’t buy vote. do you know that he only spent 5 millions pesos in the campaign compare to the 8 digits funding of GMA each of the team unity. and where did GMA got all the funds for team unity? it is all from the coffers money.

6. well this is a free election, anybody can support any candidates regardless of your political affiliations. even the communist voted for GMA in the last election. do you know that?

7. when you up-rise to a corrupt government eventually there were some repercussions but it is better to do that instead of suffering the millions Filipinos from poverty bec. of rampant corruption from GMA down to his cohorts.

Don’t talked too much bec. Senator Trillanes will be proclaimed tomorrow. ok?

and any more questions? Mr. Juan Dela Cruz! One more thing Mr. Juan dela cruz, are you a Filipino? or a NUTS!

COUPLE FEARS TRILLIANES,SEEKS PROTECTION: BY ALLISON LOPEZ, Inquirer Updated @ 01:13 am, 06/14/07
QOUTE…A dutch engineer said he would not mind if Trillianes 1V becomes senator- as long as he does not get out of jail. Let him be a senator, we all know he will not do his job. He is just an immature boy, said Adreaan Dejager at the press conference held at the vacc office in Mla. Trillianes allegedly seized their Q.C property and used its basement as a hiding place for ammunitions and explosives a month after the failed oakwood mutiny in July 2003. The two (Adreaan and wife) accused trillianes and his private army of forcibly ejecting them from their 429 sq. m lot on Sampaguita corner Santan st, Gloria 5 subdivision Talipapa Novaliches on March 28, 2003 and it goes on and on….Just in case you missed this column my fellow bloggers.

06/15/2007

Genuine Opposition (GO) candidate former Navy Lt./SG Antonio Trillanes IV has secured a seat in the 23-man Senate.

This after Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Benjamin Abalos Sr. yesterday said it was “mathematically impro-bable” for the votes to affect the final tally for the Magdalo leader.

The Comelec scheduled the proclamation of the former Navy officer as the 11th senator-elect of the republic today.

############################

Parang nabunutan ng tinik si Senator-elect Antonio Trillanes IV matapos ihayag ng Commission on Elections na itinakda na ang kanyang proklamasyon bilang senador sa Biyernes.

Ayon kay Trillanes, ito umano ay guhit ng tadhana.

Ang kanyang tagumpay ay itinuturing niyang patunay na maraming Pilipino ang naniniwala sa ipinaglalaban ng kanilang grupong Magdalo na nasangkot sa Oakwood mutiny.

Kaya ibinabahagi niya ito sa kanyang mga kagrupo at sa lahat ng Pilipino.

Sukli raw ito sa nasirang career, pagkakaibigan at mga nawasak na pamilya ng kanyang mga mistah at kapwa junior officers na sumama sa Oakwood noong 2003.

Sa edad na 35 anyos, si Trillanes ang magiging pinakabatang senador ng bansa.

Dahil hindi raw siya gumastos sa halalan, babawi siya at magbabayad ng utang sa mga botante.

Samantala, pinayagan na ang pansamantalang paglabas ni Trillanes sa Biyernes para dumalo sa kanyang proklamasyon.

I definitely agree he won’t even win in a barangay election. Unfortunately, for a country looking for modern day heroes to battle evil Gloria, they found it in Trillianes. But is he really the one or just another fake? Riding on the impeach GMA campaign slogan and battle cry, he won the hearts of unwary voters. Did our electorate made the sound judgement on him, definitely not. What he did that day in Oakwood is unrepairable and damaging to the economy, an action comparable to economic sabotage. I bet he is another Gringo on the making.

I believe the reason why many people are against Trillanes (although not enough) because his main purpose as Senator is to legislate laws he himself could not follow by using ARMS. Trillanes singled out this administration for corruption, and he ran under the GO banner.

salamat kay jonjon, ito raw ang website ni trillanes: ://magdaloparasapagbabago.blogspot.com/

From the website:

The Vision:

1. Lasting Peace and Prosperity for the country

Oath of the New Katipuneros:
I am willing to lay down my life in the pursuit of the Vision

tanong ko sa iyo:

WILL A COUP BRING PEACE AND PROSPERITY FOR THE COUNTRY?

assuming na loyal si trillanes sa vision at oath of the new katipuneros.

Dapat wala siya sa oakwood o kaya eh 6 feet under d ground na siya.

a coup will never bring peace, puro di baril at bomba sila don di ba? Peace ba yon eh giyera at patayan ang hanap nila.

Prosperity ba ang coup, ang dami nga natakot at nagsiaalis na mga negosyo noong mga panahon na iyon.

number 1 pa lang ng kanilang visions at oaths, eh di na niya kayang sundin at tuparin………

sana naman eh matupad niya ang mga binitiwan niyang mga pangako sa inyo…..

GOD help him…..

and us…….

and the philippines…….

Re- your postings on why reward Trillanes dated 01/07/07 @ 12:38 am. You really have made me laughed out loud. You have the guts….. GO FOR IT…KEEP ON FEEDING US WITH YOUR IDEAS. It has become an entertainable site. We sometimes need to laugh especially with some ideas that repetitively have become and pessimistic.
Yes…. the rift is now wide open among the opposition senators with some favoring Villar as senate president. Wait for more show.

MANILA, Philippines — The rift in the opposition in the Senate has broken wide open.

Sen. Panfilo Lacson on Tuesday demanded that fellow opposition Senators Manuel Villar, Jose “Jinggoy” Estrada, Alan Peter Cayetano and Francis Escudero explain why they decided to hook up with the Senate coalition dominated by administration senators.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

kapag sariling kapakanan na ang nakataya, maski silang may mga pinag samahan na eh nag iiwan pa……

palagay ko kayang kaya din nilang iwanan sa ere ang mga umasa at bumoto sa kanila……..

masakit man aminin, nadengoy na naman tayo ng mga ito……..

GO bets in last-ditch effort to reunite
By Jess Diaz
Thursday, July 5, 2007

Seven Genuine Opposition (GO) senators candidates will try to make a last-ditch effort to reunite and remain with the political opposition, Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III said yesterday.

With 13 of his colleagues allied with him – plus TU’s Juan Miguel Zubiri if he wins over Aquilino Pimentel III – Villar is assured of keeping his job as Senate president. The post of Senate president pro-tempore is expected to go to former President Joseph Estrada’s son Jinggoy.

There are speculations that Jinggoy could be Villar’s vice presidential running mate in 2010. Villar is widely believed to be eyeing the presidency.

eh malaki pala pakinabang ni jinggoy…..

yan ang anak ni erap, yan ang magandang halimbawa ng isang opposition senator……..

sir kauting delicadeza naman, marami kayong pinaluluhang tagahangga…….

Sige nga..

isa pang point.. ang 11-million ba na boto is the true voice of the people? Di ba dapat 50% + 1? yan ang majority!!

tanong lang ha?

It was just as good with or without pro administration senators not winning enough votes to be in the magic 12…..ITS JUST FINE….NO GRUDGE.

Oppositions divided—divisions is now pretty obvious. Why? it is due to the so called self vested interest that makes a person turn one’s coat (balimbing). Where is that word of promise? NO ONE IS TO LEAVE (kono) BUT TO LEAVE AFTER ALL. It is fine by me seeing some of the opposition senators joining the senate coalition dominated by the administration senators.Hopefully this will not anger the loyal supporters of the opposition looking up to them with high regard. GET READY WITH YOUR HANKIES*

And by the way, dont accused Gloria the illegitimate president (KONO) to have a hand on this because even ERAP son Jinggoy is one among them to favor Villar.

IT HURTS BUT THATS HOW IT IS

3 senators rapped for dealing with GMA supporters

By Florante S. Solmerin

THE gap between stalwarts of the Genuine Opposition and three of its senators who won in the last election has widened, with San Juan City Mayor Joseph Victor Ejercito warning them against joining the administration and betraying the people who voted for them.

“These senators have responsibility to the people who voted for them. Betraying the people’s trust has its own price,” Ejercito told a forum at Club Filipino in Greenhills.

Ejercito was referring to Senate President Manuel Villar Jr., Senator Francis Escudero, Senator Alan Cayetano, who all ran under the GO ticket but allegedly jumped ship.

Ejercito reminded the senators about their role as fiscalizers and not lapdogs. It is important for the senators to remember that they serve the people who voted for them and believed in them to be the fiscalizer against government corruption.

Senator Panfilo Lacson said that Villar, Escudero and Cayetano have effectively “abandoned” their colleagues in the minority and are now considered administration allies, forming part of the majority bloc in the Senate.
