PNoy Can Only Be Fined But Not Impeached for the DAP Fiasco

July 3, 2014 Hector Gamboa 8 Comments

So now that the Supreme Court of the Philippines has declared the administration’s Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) unconstitutional, many sectors are calling for President Noynoy Aquino’s (PNoy) impeachment and criminal prosecution. The argument goes that the DAP authorized by PNoy qualifies as a criminal act of (technical) malversation of public funds and thus constitutes betrayal…

Filipinos need new innovative ways to nail #DAP crooks to the wall!

July 2, 2014July 2, 2014 benign0 8 Comments

Following the milestone ruling by the Philippine Supreme Court (SC) yesterday deeming the controversial presidential slush fund known as the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) illegal on most counts, the reckoning has started. Several courses of action are being considered which may be undertaken in any number of combinations. The three standout items include: (1) Impeaching…

SC rules DAP unconstitutional: Time for PNoy to walk down the straight path to justice!

July 1, 2014 benign0 47 Comments

So the highest court in the Philippines has now ruled, the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) is deemed unconstitutional. It now needs to be dismantled, funds appropriated and disbursed within its framework accounted for, and its facilitators, brokers, and creators taken to task. It won’t be surprising if, out of all this, all eyes will once…

If Filipinos can’t produce results, the least they can come up with is DIRECTION

The din of chatter and news releases about this and that crime suspect, presidential candidate, disaster relief effort, international territory dispute, plus the loud non-stop melodramatic rationalisations issued by a who’s-who of crooked politicians and their lackeys is so loud and pervasive that you could be forgiven for thinking that the Philippines is a hive…

The Big Lie: Senator Bong Revilla’s disgusting privilege speech before the Philippine Senate

January 28, 2014 Virtual Vigilante 29 Comments

The notion of siring 38 children (“officially acknowledged” or as much at 72 children, including unrecognized ones) with different women is not only irresponsible but downright perverted. Hence, I couldn’t help but puke at the sight of the old man (Nardong Putik himself) cry on cue, looking the part of the beaten underdog, while his…

I have mixed feelings about impeaching President Noynoy Aquino

January 23, 2014January 23, 2014 Kate Natividad 49 Comments

I hear a lot of talk about impeaching President Noynoy Aquino. Well, it’s not really surprising considering all the badness of his administration being highlighted lately. I mean, here’s a guy who promised the sky back in 2010 and all we get four years down the track is a yellow shirt and a bunch of…

Bong Revilla’s lesson: Dealing with President Noynoy Aquino is like dealing with the Devil himself

January 22, 2014January 22, 2014 Ilda 45 Comments

I wonder what it would take for the Filipino people to finally wake-up from their stupor. One catastrophic event after another has been happening in the country lately but the rest of Philippine society seems unaffected and continue with their lives and celebrate annual festivities like everything is okay. It is mind-boggling to see how…

PNoy and allies mount damage control efforts following Revilla tell-all speech

January 22, 2014 benign0 18 Comments

Affected politicians are on a mad damage control scramble following the tell-all privilege speech delivered by embattled Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla the other night. In his privilege speech, Revilla defended himself against allegations of pork barrel thievery and revealed intriguing accounts of how Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino III attempted to influence various senators…
