“Influencers” should lead the way in educating voters and not contribute to making them dumber

Elections are just around the corner again and it will be interesting to see whether the campaigns that will be in full swing soon will be any different to the ones we beheld in previous elections. Will these campaigns appeal to intelligence? Or will, as tradition holds, these appeal to base emotions and shallow showbiz…

Leni Robredo’s preference for “local office” proves she is not a leader of NATIONS

March is approaching and still no standout Opposition leader. The 2022 national elections are looming in the horizon and the only person being put forth as a “viable” challenger to the administration camp of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is “vice president” Leni Robredo — that is, for those who see the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the…

Just because Bongbong Marcos’s poll protest was junked does not make Leni Robredo fit to be President

After several years of languishing in the justice system, vice presidential candidate Bongbong Marcos’s poll protest was reportedly dismissed by the Supreme Court. Rappler “reports” on Twitter, “In unanimous vote, Supreme Court junks electoral protest filed by defeated candidate Bongbong Marcos against Vice President Leni Robredo, concluding more than 4 years of litigation of the…

“Red tagging” is an intellectually-dishonest red herring communists use to mask their crimes

“Red tagging” is an intellectually-dishonest red herring communists use to mask their crimes

Shhhh…. Listen for a minute in silence. Do you hear that? That’s right. That’s the sound of Filipino “activists” still complaining about being “red tagged”. In fact, it’s the only argument they throw against efforts being mounted by the Philippine Government to eradicate the communist cancer from our society. But think about it for a…

The Philippines is right not to join international condemnation of the Myanmar coup d’etat

The Philippines is right not to join international condemnation of the Myanmar coup d’etat

Why should the Philippines join the international community to condemn the coup d’etat that ousted the “democratic” government of Myanmar and established military rule there? Leading the condemnation, after all, is none other than the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) which, need we remind ourselves, itself has been unfair in its treatment of the…

‘Pork Barrel Queen’ Janet Lim Napoles convicted but the buck stopped with Aquino in 2013

After years of muddling through the Philippines’ “justice” system, some progress in the crackdown on pork barrel politics has finally been made. Janet Lim Napoles now reportedly faces “jail time of 12 to 18 years for each count of malversation” after the Sandiganbayan ruled “Napoles, [former Cagayan de Oro representative Constantino Jaraula], and three others…

Is using “Madumb” to address Philippine “vice president” Leni Robredo justified?

Is using “Madumb” to address Philippine “vice president” Leni Robredo justified?

Normally, a top female official of the Philippine Government is addressed as “Madam” out of respect. Lately, however, we’ve been seeing current “vice president” Leni Robredo being addressed as “Madumb” — a play on the words “madam” and “dumb”. This is likely an outcome of some confusion on the part of many Filipinos as to…

Is there no Opposition leader other than Leni Robredo?

Tick tock tick tock. The 2022 elections are just around the corner and all the venerable “thought leaders” of the Opposition could do is gush about the latest PR stunt of “vice president” Leni Robredo and defend her pale spaghetti sensibilities. You’d think a country of more than 100 million could come up with even…
