President Noynoy Aquino forgives Carlos Celdran like other allies but not his enemies

Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino has weighed in on the “Damaso” dilemma and has showed his inconsistency yet again. He “urged the Church to follow the Pope’s example and forgive” tourist guide and part-time activist, Carlos Celdran. The latter was found guilty of violating Article 133 of the Revised Penal Code (for “offending religious…

“Nganga!” goes the Filipino taxpayer

Posted on January 29, 2013January 29, 2013 By Ms. Mike Portes 100 Comments on “Nganga!” goes the Filipino taxpayer
“Nganga!” goes the Filipino taxpayer

Filipino taxpayers can take pride in sponsoring two expensive teledramas. In 2012, we saw the Club 188 signatories expedite the impeachement of then Chief Justice Corona, courtesy of a Powerpoint presentation. The drama was blown to a full scale at the senate, where we saw a nation polarized by the eloquent grandstanding of our public…

Senate drama sideshow: Yoly Ong and Juan Ponce Enrile’s exchange of lawsuits

As if Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile did not have enough on his plate this month from Senators Miriam Santiago, Antonio Trillanes, and Alan Peter Cayetano. As was reported a few days ago, he also has to deal with the counterclaim of Campaigns & Grey chairperson and Philippine Star columnist Yoly Villanueva-Ong. Ms. Ong filed…

Senator Enrile accuses Senator Cayetano of having no ‘utang na loob’

Posted on January 24, 2013June 5, 2013 By Ilda 74 Comments on Senator Enrile accuses Senator Cayetano of having no ‘utang na loob’
Senator Enrile accuses Senator Cayetano of having no ‘utang na loob’

Is there any politician who is not indebted to Philippine Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile? Okay, let us limit it to the Senate. Is there any senator who is not indebted to him? It seems Enrile has the goods on every Senator and he appears to be in the habit of using personal information against…

Cayetano versus Enrile: why a Senate self-destruction will ultimately be good for the Philippines

Posted on January 24, 2013 By benign0 17 Comments on Cayetano versus Enrile: why a Senate self-destruction will ultimately be good for the Philippines
Cayetano versus Enrile: why a Senate self-destruction will ultimately be good for the Philippines

You can’t blame old fogey Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile for trying the old Pinoy style sidestep-the-issue-then-lay-out-a-Joker-card trick when painted into a corner. That’s exactly what he did responding to very clear and specific issues raised by Senator Alan Peter Cayetano during a speech he delivered before his colleagues around the need for a private…

Antonio Trillanes outclassed as Enrile retains Senate Presidency

Posted on January 22, 2013 By benign0 63 Comments on Antonio Trillanes outclassed as Enrile retains Senate Presidency
Antonio Trillanes outclassed as Enrile retains Senate Presidency

For me, the only person who is coming out the usual chump (that he really is) in the on-going circus in the Senate is none other than “senator” Antonio Trillanes. He is, after all, the guy who led a failed military rebellion in the early- to mid-2000s, got convicted and imprisoned, then was pardoned by…

What does the Filipino want?

Posted on January 21, 2013August 22, 2013 By FallenAngel 126 Comments on What does the Filipino want?
What does the Filipino want?

The Filipino desperately declares to the rest of the world that he is the best among the lot, yet the current political, economic, and social states of his country, the mannerisms of his people, and the quality of his thinking prove otherwise. What does the Filipino want? The Filipino claims that being a colony for…

President Noynoy Aquino and opponents talk dirty while issues plaguing nation remain unresolved

It’s campaign season again in the Philippines. Senatorial and congressional candidates are gearing up for the big day in May this year. The Filipino people can expect more mudslinging among candidates and less talk about policies between now and Election Day. Those who still bother with what some say is a farce activity will be…
