I thought, hey, if this drivel of an impeachment complaint passed Congress, I’ll bet I can draft one against…

Pedro Calungsod – yet another Filipino saint Filipinos can look to for miracles

I read recently that we have another Filipino saint queued for canonisation by the Roman Catholic officialdom in the Vatican. Blessed Pedro Calungsod is a 17th Century Visayan martyr whose bid to be the second Filipino saint is “now a certainty” by virtue of a papal decree made last week according to an Inquirer.net report….

President Noynoy Aquino: Is he the new Filipino god?

Fails the So What? Test: Raissa Robles on Mrs Cristina Corona as ‘GMA appointee’ @raissawriter

Template disasters, the backhoe and why Andal Ampatuan is like Typhoon Sendong
