Gut Feel All Over Again

Now this is strange. A new survey by Pulse Asia shows that of all the presidential candidates Senator Manny Villar enjoys the trust of more Filipinos. It shows Senator Noynoy Aquino only at second place. Here’s an excerpt from an abs-cbnnews.com report.
The January 22-26 survey showed that 70% of Filipinos had much trust for Villar, [...]

Adding More Substance To Political Ads

I have a theory. The election campaigns of our presidential candidates are all run by one and the same group of people.
I say this because political advertisements being aired and published now are all basically saying the same things. There’s really not much difference among them. In my observation, here are some of the most [...]

Hindi Ako Mag-Nanakaw, Pramis

I have just seen the latest TV ad of Senator Noynoy Aquino and I must say it’s a good one. Here it is from YouTube.

And for those who want to really savor the lines, here they are lovingly transcribed by yours truly.
Minamahal kong kababayan,
Tadhana ang nagbuklod sa atin dahil naghihingalo na ang ating bayan, Nais [...]

Beware of Opportunists Among Mainstream Political Pundits

The sycophants have all come out of the woodwork. And, they’re not shy.

Before we go any further let’s agree first on what a sycophant is. Wiktionary gives us the following definitions:

In case you haven’t noticed, a number of mainstream political pundits have now established themselves as promoters and defenders of Senator Noynoy Aquino. I think [...]

Narrow-minded much?

Here’s a photo being circulated through Twitter. It shows Senator Noynoy Aquino with some students who appear to be supporters of Senator Manny Villar. (Funny how people’s political affiliations are now all color coded.)

Well, as can be expected Noynoy’s followers are jumping on the opportunity to turn this into another viral crap.

Good thing there are [...]

Ho-hum… Villar cuts Noynoy’s lead in survey

But regardless of whether or not surveys do or do not influence how people vote, what is clear to me is that electing a leader means choosing the person with the best qualifications for a position and that involves examining a candidate’s worthiness based on a criteria. Of course, the criteria by itself will not do you any good unless you get to know as much as you can about the other candidates.

Pinoy Buzz: Supporter says Noynoy coming to Romulo debate

ERRATA: Misunderstood @bluevill, apparently what he meant was that Noynoy will be going to a debate at La Salle Zobel on Saturday and no confirmation has been made about his attendance to the Romulo debate.
Here is a direct message from him on twitter:
bluevill Pls read my tweet to momblogger. Debate Sat. at La Salle Zobel [...]

Noynoy Aquino should join the Romulo foundation debate

(I was going to post this as a response to a comment in the previous post on the Carlos Romulo Foundation debate but decided to post it as an entry because it was very long.)

According to the announcement I got from a friend, the organizers of the Carlos P. Romulo Foundation for Peace and Development [...]

Noynoy’s Pod People

“They’re here already! You’re next! You’re next!”
– Kevin McCarthy as Dr. Miles Bennell, The Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
Whenever something is weighing heavily on my mind, I come across things (books, articles, pictures, people, phrases overheard in hallways, etcetera) that somewhat eerily frames what I am going through.
Early this evening, as I was going [...]

Who is leading in Philippine Presidential online polls?

Right now on the web, there are a lot of online polls where you can cast your vote for one Philippine Presidential candidate or another.  Each online poll has a claim of being more better than the other but there is no way of really knowing what criteria to apply to figure out which is [...]
