Hindi naman siguro ganito ka-tanga ang Filipino. Sa pinakabagong survey ng Pulse Asia lumabas na tabla na sina Senador Manny Villar at dating Pangulong Joseph Estrada. Sa aking palagay hindi naman siguro totoong tumataas pa ang rating ng dating pangulo. Hindi naman siguro ganoon ka-bobo ang mga Pinoy para pagkatiwalaan pa si Estrada sa kabila [...] Read more »
The Wasted Ones
I have come to the conclusion that there are three types of Noynoy supporters. The first one is the typical fan who got into this yellow fever thing because of the bandwagon effect. These supporters include those who fall for anything considered in fashion. It won’t be surprising to know that most of them were [...] Read more »
For Da Pinoy Voter
Now this is a big surprise. ABS-CBN’s Harapan: The Tandem Presidential Debate has been canceled. The surprising and unexpected reason: several candidates for president and vice president have either backed out or declined to participate. This is shocking news. Who would have thought that the likes of Senators Noynoy Aquino, Manny Villar and their equally [...] Read more »
Missed Opportunity
The Kapuso Network missed a golden opportunity with its much publicized Isang Tanong Presidential Forum last night. The presidential aspirants came and they seemed all ready to be grilled, to be asked the really tough questions. But, instead, they were made to answer mostly “motherhood” questions that naturally elicited “motherhood” answers. Here are the questions [...] Read more »
Isang Pakiusap Kay Estrada

Lacson, who is implicated in the Dacer-Corbito case, also hinted that Estrada may have had a hand in the double murder. As can be expected, [...] Read more »
Election Subsidy, Bigger LGU Budgets… “Pwede Na Yan”
The 2nd ANC Leadership Forum was not without its share of motherhood statements thanks to Senator Loren Legarda, MMDA Chairman Bayani Fernando, Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay and Former President Joseph Estrada. Thankfully, the participants, with the exception of Estrada, managed to slip in a few ideas worth exploring. These are: 1. government subsidy for election [...] Read more »
2nd ANC Leadership Forum: Beautiful, Twisted TV
I thoroughly enjoyed the second ANC Leadership Forum. It was informative and it really helped me trim down my list of possible presidential candidates upon which I will pick my ultimate choice come May 2010. And, yes, like every other person I know who watched it, I also had a good laugh thanks to the [...] Read more »
Estrada Provides Clarity In ANC Forum
Former President Joseph Estrada’s performance at the second ANC Leadership Forum should be enough to convince all Filipinos that he is not fit to run for president and more importantly to run this country. My apologies to Mr. Estrada’s die-hard supporters and hangers-on but Mr. Estrada is just not president material, not by any measure. [...] Read more »
