Senator JV Ejercito exacts groundbreaking apology from Napoles List mongerers!

May 19, 2014 benign0 22 Comments

Until recently, the core dysfunction in the collective thinking faculties of Philippine society has largely gone unpenalised. Careers have been broken, people unjustly imprisoned, and suicides committed because of this. The current imbroglio that Philippine politics has now found itself neck-deep in following the grossly-misguided release of various lists of alleged pork barrel thieves by…

PNoy shows he is also corrupt when he defends political allies included in Napoles Lists

May 18, 2014May 18, 2014 Ilda 65 Comments

When he is not playing the role of his party mates’ campaign manager, you can find Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino playing the lead role of their defense counsel. Yes, defending members of his inner circle, particularly cabinet secretaries who have been implicated in the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) scam or pork barrel…

Since the release to the public of lists of government officials and members of Congress who’d allegedly had dealings with alleged pork barrel scam ringleader Janet Lim Napoles, the scramble to clear names and deny, deny, and deny has been pure madness. One of the more notable of the names mentioned in these lists is…

Philippine activism FAIL: Now that the Napoles Lists are out WHAT NOW?

May 16, 2014 benign0 19 Comments

I desperately need to ask all the idiots who made a lot of noise clamouring for the release to the public of all these Napoles Lists this simple question: What now? See, I’ve long asserted that a proper and modern investigation of the pork barrel scam can be mounted without these lists. For that matter,…

And the massive national quibble over the content of the Napoles Lists is on!

May 13, 2014 benign0 10 Comments

As expected, the usual suspects are taking the top-management cue and mounting a massive online quibble over the contents of a bunch of name-and-shame lists, purportedly of members of Congress who’ve had “dealings” with alleged pork barrel scam ringleader Janet Lim Napoles, floating around. What exactly will these lists prove? Nothing really. What is at…

The curious case of multiple Napoles List versions

May 12, 2014 benign0 6 Comments

We are amidst a flurry of multiple Napoles Lists — each with different sets of names — emerging from the woodwork! At last count there are four bozos holding such lists — former Senator Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson, Justice Secretary Leila De Lima, former whistleblower Sandra Cam, and no less than Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS”…

Noynoy Aquino gov’t appears dishonest and incompetent in dealing with list of pork barrel scammers

Trust is not a word you can associate with the Philippine government particularly the one headed by the incumbent President Benigno Simeon (BS) Aquino. His term has been plagued by accusations of incompetence, conspiracy and thievery from Day One. Considering many Filipinos still doubt the legitimacy of his Presidency on account of his win in…

Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA): Why America is NOT the enemy!

April 30, 2014February 17, 2023 benign0 122 Comments

So America’s awesome military is now well on its way to staging a triumphant return to the shores of its bosses’ hapless former colony. The Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) “highlights” the recent meeting between Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino III and US President Barack Obama. However, reports abound that many Filipinos supposedly aren’t…
