inodoro, i don’t have to defend myself from anyone for my comments here but i have never wished ill of anyone, anywhere unless in a fair give and take, i.e. when provoked a priori, or to respond in kind. Yet, can you cite any such wish i made in this blog? If you do, i will tell you the context in which it was made, assuming you are open-minded.

humirit ka pa bencard.

for me, anything more you say in a political discourse like this has lost its glitter. for we realize that in the end, you’re just out to provide comfort to your own ass. sayang, i enjoyed pa naman your personal banters, no matter how extreme or myopic your views were at times.

in a way, tama ka: buti pa diyan, hindi “immediate families” ang mag-aaruga sa ‘yo. so have a good retirement homelife in the u.s. of a!

jeg, heckling comes with the territory in a forum like this. but to wish ill-will for a lot just because one is nestled relatively peaceful in a crag puts the person at the height of–not tacklessness–but utter insensitivity.

jeg, to answer your question, yes, there may still be darkness if TU wins, but then we won’t have accused felons (bailed-out detainees) and power monopolists from the same immediate families in the already-discredited senate.

Ow come on mb, you’re not a neophyte in politics, are you?
Just like the survey that shapes opinion, the choice of what precincts’tallies to input in the computer makes people think that it is the trend.

Bencard: Foreign press, while noting GMA-team losing the Senate to the opposition, the (foreign-press-) conclusion remains that “Arroyo set to keep power”. Click here for one such commentary:

Nothing but trending. Before, they used to mention the precincts from where the votes have been tallied, ngayon, wala na so the people have just to guess where they’re coming from. Sheesh.

Just like the survey.

During the snap election, the programmers walked out in protest of the instruction to input wrong data.

Several years later, I thought the software being used is very sophisticated. Yon pala Excel lang.

Come on, fellas. Lay off Bencard.

yeah, it’s just heightened emotion and possibly increase in blood pressure…nothing more. i’m sure he didn’t mean it just like when he resorted to name-calling 2 blogposts ago.

bencard, the counting’s not over…and until then let’s keep our cool. anything can happen…
