GET a life, Senator Lacson!
If you want to run for the presidency, at the very least have the decency of statesmanship. Then again, you are Panfilo Lacson! The very same person who made news at the height of the investigation with regard to the deaths of the Kuratong Baleleng Gang… the very same person who had on-and-off relationship with former president Joseph Estrada… the very same person who, for his entire career as a senator in the 13th Congress, devoted himself to implicating the First Family with countless allegations, which have never really prospered to a full-scale investigation!
Now you have given breath anew to an expose, which is actually old news! Would you go so low as to bask yourself in character assassination in the attempt to put your name and face in all the news magazines and dailies?
Would you rather prioritize your interests at the expense of a new beginning for Congress to make amends and finally get out of the abyss of political immaturity? Most importantly, would this on a certain level reduce the heinous corruption in the Philippine government?
Go beyond political gimmickry and show us that you deserve the presidency come election 2010!

On the contrary elmer, the Filipinos are not tired of the issue and more telling than that is that unresolved covered-up issues must never be forgotten until resolved.
I remembered the time when some blogger said a similar thing when Gloria declared her intent not to run in the last 2004 elections:
“GMA has only a year or more to go. Pls., why can’t you just wait for 2004?”
Now it’s 2007 and a surge of anomalies perpetuated just to remain in power. Not to forget; the attempted Charter Change with the aim to remove the term limits of elected officials.
How sure are you she’ll step down on 2010 elmer?

I remember a funny story from “Shaman of Malilipot” which would provide a good analogy for the predicament of Gloria, the Filipino people and the Garci tape:
Nasilip ng driver si misis at ang kanyang boyfriend sa bedroom making love. Kinunan ng picture.
Binigay ng driver ang picture sa husband who confronted the wife.
Husband: You committed adultery with your boyfriend!
Wife: What’s your proof?
Husband: This picture, taken by the driver.
Wife: Gago, it doesn’t prove that I committed adultery. It proves that your driver is a peeping tom!

Correct ka diyan, Mannybadingerzy! If Lacson was indeed guilty of any wrongdoings, it would have come out a long time ago with Corpuz on his neck and with the criminal Berroya after his credibility. All we have to do is to look at the track record of all these people accusing Lacson. Why do they hate him so much? Because he is the only one who has the guts.
