Senators in oligarchs’ pockets a serious roadblock to reforms needed to attract more foreign investment

Senators in oligarchs’ pockets a serious roadblock to reforms needed to attract more foreign investment

“Filipino last?” Boo Chanco poses the question in his PhilSTAR piece of the same title today and answers in the end, “Our Filipino First policy only made Filipinos last. That’s the awful truth.” It never ceases to amaze me how Chanco can easily flip-flop on policy now that he beats the drum on openness to…

“Birthday visit” raises possible Duterte-Gibo tandem, throws Opposition into further panic

Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro who served as Defense Secretary under former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) was President Rodrigo Duterte’s (PRRD’s) initial choice for Defense Secretary. However, Gibo declined for undisclosed reasons. Recently, he signified his intent to run in 2022 but would not disclose the office again. What does Gibo bring to the table as a…

ABS-CBN demise: It’s the SYSTEM, Students!

Posted on July 16, 2020July 16, 2020 By PulbuRonn 8 Comments on ABS-CBN demise: It’s the SYSTEM, Students!
ABS-CBN demise: It’s the SYSTEM, Students!

The recent junking of the franchise renewal of ABS-CBN is a welcome breath of fresh air. As I’ve wrote on my previous article, I really, truly couldn’t care less if ABS-CBN goes off the air. My sentiment is still the same. ABS-CBN has played political kingmakers for decades, dumbed down its audiences with its roster…

Scratching the ChaCha itch: Why an Opposition VP like Leni will never work well for the Philippines

Posted on January 9, 2020 By zaxx 9 Comments on Scratching the ChaCha itch: Why an Opposition VP like Leni will never work well for the Philippines
Scratching the ChaCha itch: Why an Opposition VP like Leni will never work well for the Philippines

Who else can come up with that idiotic provision in the Constitution of allowing a candidate from the Opposing Party to serve as co-pilot in running the country? None other than one with a Yellow-logic-infested brain of course. Yep, the 1987 Cory Constitution, like the stupid Lina law that protects squatters from getting evicted unless…

The Fastest Way to Change the Anti-People Yellowtard Constitution is through a Revolutionary Government

Posted on August 31, 2017 By zaxx 18 Comments on The Fastest Way to Change the Anti-People Yellowtard Constitution is through a Revolutionary Government
The Fastest Way to Change the Anti-People Yellowtard Constitution is through a Revolutionary Government

The 1987 Yellowtard Constitution needs tweaking. No, it needs a major overhaul. Wrong again – it needs a total and complete replacement. So what’s wrong with the Yellowtard Constitution? Let’s just take this provision for example: ARTICLE VII (Executive Department) SECTION 2. No person may be elected President unless he is a natural-born citizen of…

Noynoy Aquino: stop issuing stupid answers to the question of your term extension

Noynoy Aquino: stop issuing stupid answers to the question of your term extension

The most annoying sort of human beings of all are those who can’t make up their minds. I’m a firm believer in the saying: Either dump your load or get off the can. Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III has been playing games with Filipinos for months now. He’s certainly earned the ‘BS’ in…

PNoy wants to amend Cory Constitution to punish Supreme Court for ruling against DAP

After years of saying no, Philippine President Benigno Simeon (BS) Aquino has finally admitted yes, he is for the amendment of the 1987 “Cory” Constitution. That’s bad news for a lot of people particularly his supporters who insisted that “it is not the President himself who wants to extend his term; it is the people…

Former President Cory Aquino speaks to PNoy from beyond the grave

Former President Corazon “Cory” Aquino, the late mother of Philippine President Benigno Simeon ‘BS’ Aquino III seems to be speaking to her son from the grave in the following speech (where she tries to dissuade then President Fidel Ramos from pushing for charter change to extend his term). Note the irony in her words in…
