AMONG the members of Arroyo’s Cabinet Raul Gonzales Sr. stands out as the most hated, reviled and made fun of, head of a national department in the Republic of the Philippines.
It is to her credit that Arroyo keeps Gonzalez because he is an asset to her administration as he is a very loyal lapdog, notwithstanding his antics. Arroyo lets him loose once in a while so he could intimidate the opposition, and deliver not-so-subtle warnings to anyone who opposes Arroyo. She could keep him at arm’s length, or say that he acted on his own. What Raul Gonzalez Sr. is doing to the office he is occupying now is to smear it with the blood of the innocent citizens of the republic; he is also prostituting the justice system for his own ends, and bringing ridicule to the most venerable and respectable department of the country, while members of the national bar listen to him play his harp.

Have you noticed Raul Gonzales appearance during his first series of interviews after his transplant surgery? He looked like he was dead - ashen mukhang kababangon lang galing sa ataul, dead. Maybe he did sell his soul to the devil. His actions surely show it. I think he is truly dead - he just doesn’t know it yet.

Pungok,
I think Gonzales needs another transplant … a brain transplant.

Kayo naman. Kinailangan lang ng pang-transplant nung tao! At sa ngayon, kailangan n’ya ng pang-maintain sa na transplant. Ano’ng akala nyo, mani lang ang pambayad don?
Alam n’yo, minsan, kailangan magbenta ng kaluluwa ang isang tao para ipagpatuloy ang buhay sa mundong ito. Bahala na sa kabilang buhay.
