Bongbong for Prosperity, Isko for Decency, Manny for Integrity, Bato for Order

Pick your flavor. But how do you choose from such a rich and colorful selection this coming May 2022? Elections in the Philippines should evolve beyond personalities and faces and instead towards the intangible values, principles, and ideals each choice represents. Philippine politics needs to grow up from face and name recall, clans and dynasties…

Yellowtards hyperventilating as they speculate on Sara Duterte’s next move

Yellowtards hyperventilating as they speculate on Sara Duterte’s next move

As expected, the Yellowtards are having a cow over news that Inday Sara Duterte has withdrawn her candidacy for Mayor of Davao City raising fears that she is taking steps to join the national race. Evidently they had latched on to some sort of notion of a “promise” made by Ms Duterte that she will…

People, not just cars: Bongbong Marcos’s peoplecades beat Leni Robredo’s motorcades any day!

People, not just cars: Bongbong Marcos’s peoplecades beat Leni Robredo’s motorcades any day!

Cars don’t elect presidents. People do. That is perhaps the big lesson members of Leni Robredo’s camp have been learning over the past week. It seemed at first that Robredo’s #KakamPink titas enjoyed a big head start with their chi chi motorcade of, well, motor cars snaking their way through various hinterland roads. One of…

Leni Robredo: No need to DQ BBM, “we won without a disqualification” in 2016. But did she REALLY?

Leni Robredo: No need to DQ BBM, “we won without a disqualification” in 2016. But did she REALLY?

If I were Leni Robredo, I wouldn’t be reminding people of what happened back in 2016 when allegations of electoral fraud marred what was supposed to be an “important” national election. In arrogantly proclaiming that she handily beat rival candidate Bongbong Marcos for the vice presidency back then, old wounds have been opened including those…

Check out Leni Robredo’s COVID-19 strategy; without the cinematic drama, OA music, and that constipated look on her face

Check out Leni Robredo’s COVID-19 strategy; without the cinematic drama, OA music, and that constipated look on her face

Has Leni Robredo actually taken a stand on anything controversial? It seems that the only thing she’s taken a stand on is, get this, the COVID-19 pandemic. And why not, right? What human on the face of this planet is not concerned about the COVID-19 pandemic? For two years, we were all subject to it…

The Houston Astros are Baseball’s Equivalent of Andy Bautista

The baseball season has ended. A rare professional sports final that resembles a WWE pay per view. A final matchup where there is clear cut bad guy and the good guy is whoever is on the other side. The last time there was anything like this was the 2011 NBA final where everybody became a…

The Cult of Leni Robredo: Are its members RABID enough to deliver a win for her?

The Cult of Leni Robredo: Are its members RABID enough to deliver a win for her?

Here goes Manuel L. Quezon III again with his metaphors. In his Inquirer piece today “The voodoo rebellion”, he makes it appear that the Duterte-Marcos alliance is a cult. In recent weeks, Lakas-CMD, and then PDP-Laban, seem to have lost faith in this Second Coming. But the faithful stand firm. A stampita of the faithful…

Andy Bautista, a Yellowtard, was COMELEC chief during the 2016 elections. Why was there no “public vetting” then?

Andy Bautista, a Yellowtard, was COMELEC chief during the 2016 elections. Why was there no “public vetting” then?

The Opposition are shittin’ bricks over the implications of President Rodrigo Duterte being in a position to appoint people to the Commission on Elections en banc in February next year. Retiring by then are Chairman Sheriff Abas and Commissioners Rowena Guanzon and Antonio Kho Jr. and, in addition to those, there is one vacant position….
