A Word Before Valentine’s Day

Posted on February 10, 2015 By Grimwald 18 Comments on A Word Before Valentine’s Day
A Word Before Valentine’s Day

It’s February again and I hear people saying something about “love being in the air”. Unfortunately, all I really smell is the stench of burning tires in my neighbor’s backyard and the pleasant aroma of barbecue coming from my kitchen. Well, you guys can say that I’m just another single and bitter old coot but…

The Philippines can be a great nation only if Filipinos learn to be TRUTHFUL

The trouble with politicians is that they spend an inordinate amount of time propping up their reputations. Because of this obssessive focus on reputation, the inclination to lie, misrepresent facts, and downright suppress information becomes a lot more powerful — which is why politicians lie. What if we propose the ideal hypothetical politician, one who…

What Pinoys Get Wrong About Rights: Dehumanization In The Media

Ever since the EDSA Revolution, the Philippines and its people has always been proud to be supportive of the “human rights” movement. Since then, Filipinos came to view the Marcos regime and Marcos’ disciplinarian and authoritative mindset as tyrannical and evil. They vilified all his works and sought to bring down everything Marcos had established…

Jejomar Binay is the Vice President of the Philippines. Deal with it.

What happens if President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III resigns and Vice President Jejomar Binay takes over? Well, it seems everyone knows the answer. The Philippines will be ruled by President Jejomar Binay. Will he be a good president or a bad president? Everyone has an opinion about that. Will he vie for re-election 2016?…

The [Real] Religion

The [Real] Religion

Simula nang umakyat sa langit si Hesukristo, nagkawatak watak na ang kanyang mga apostoles dala dala ang kanyang mga aral. Lumawak nang lumawak ang saklaw ng mga karunungang hatid ng mga alagad ni Kristo hanggang sa mapadpad ang isa sa kanyang mga apostoles sa Roma. Naging maimpluwensya ang pangalang Hesus. At hindi napigilan ang pagdami…

PNoy’s resignation will boost morale and help Filipinos rebuild the nation

Let me get this straight. Some people in mainstream media think that the idea of asking President Benigno Simeon (BS) Aquino to resign is “crazy”. They think it’s crazy despite knowing how unfit he is to lead the Philippines because the next person in line to replace him is Vice President Jejomar Binay – someone…

Filipino Society Through Foreign Eyes

A lot of people who are unable to read and understand Filipino are asking for translations of GRP author Dumangsil’s articles. Indeed, with such well thought out and masterfully written content, I’m not surprised that so many would like to see Dumangsil’s work translated in English. Unfortunately, I am in no position to do anything…

The benefits of ousting President BS Aquino outweigh a Jejomar Binay presidency

Posted on February 9, 2015 By benign0 11 Comments on The benefits of ousting President BS Aquino outweigh a Jejomar Binay presidency
The benefits of ousting President BS Aquino outweigh a Jejomar Binay presidency

To be fair to President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III’s apologists, they have a point. What is the return on an investment in time, effort, and disruption related to the ouster of the president that Filipinos are clamouring for nowadays? Indeed, perhaps it may be true that the “extra benefits” of ousting BS Aquino when…
