It’s not easy to see that the Philippine Opposition is effectively non-existent today. It suffered catastrophic losses over two national elections and was utterly buried in the third and most recent one last year. These losses were all a result of their top “thought leaders” doing the same thing over and over again and expecting…
Evidently not having learnt anything over the last few years of electoral failure, the Philippine Opposition continue to behave in the same crass manner that had consistently spelt political doom for their community. The latest bozo to make their Hall of Infamy is a certain Faith Nester Poltic, a nurse who allegedly tweeted a call…
Amid rumours of former First Lady Imelda Marcos’s death, Opposition “influencers” are already “practicing” their “eulogies”. It’s classic practice amongst them to invoke their fantasies of the fire and brimstone that supposedly awaits people they had summarily judged “evil”.

Victor Corpuz saw me; he confirmed that Ninoy was really involved with the New People’s Army.” And so, to this very day we don’t know…
When you have a Senator who wants to be President on the basis of his popularity, it’s safe to say he will be mouthing populist policies in aid of election. Senator Manny “Pac-Man” Pacquiao was quoted last week saying that if he is elected President, he will give each and every homeless Filipino a home….
I was thinking of an epitaph piece for 1Sampayan yesterday after that fiasco of a launch. It seems the universe read my thoughts and here’s Randy David with his weekly Inquirer column.
