We beg to differ.
As if we needed more proof of just how inept and incompetent Pnoy’s administration was, here we have another court throwing out what is the last of the cases it had filed against Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Now, it becomes ever so clear that the previous administration’s cases against Arroyo was an evil to make themselves…

You gotta pity the University of the Philippines’ men’s basketball team that went up against the Ateneo de Manila in this year’s UAAP championship match. They may have been under pressure to win the game to fulfil the dream of the Yellowtard-led Philippine Opposition to “oust the dictator”. The “dictator” in this political fantasy is,…
