Someone might quote you on your story on the PDI regarding the water throwing incident.

If you are referring to Renato Constantino, Vic Agustin and Carmen Pedrosa; I thoroughly remember the incident in a different way.

Nevertheless though I don’t necessarily agree with all your actions I do understand your point as well as MLQ3′s and Ongpin’s.

Something somewhat similar happened during Ex-pres. Estrada’s term.

The government bought expensive gas guzzling Ford Expedition vehicles for the cabinet members. It received so much flack from media that the cabinet members’ children didn’t want to ride in them with their parents.

Regarding your claim about ex-citizens propping up the economy; OFWs don’t necessarily lose their Filipino citizenship when working abroad so you need to clarify how you use “ex-citizens”.

And how are you using ex-Pres. Estrada’s election to the presidency as a reason for generalization (even though you don’t mean that for ALL pinoys) when he wasn’t a majority President anyway?

zubiri will do well in the senate just watch him. better than the genuine opposition (to themselves too!) who seem (again) to be losing it with just the senate president issue. and the race is on….and there they go!!!!

supreme court justice giving into pressure? i doubt it…this family of Punos are highly-principled people…palusot na lang yan. the truth is Koko’s case was mishandled when he took over and that’s that.

Redemption from what?

It is ever so true that that none is so blind than he who refuses to see.

I have to agree with you. Views like those of Ricky Carandang that suggest it was a “loyalty vote” would have been considered contemptous under a less patient SC. People can call the justices that ruled against the petition stupid and call the decision erroneous. But to suggest that they didn’t decide in their best lights because of some suspicious machinations is another matter. It ain’t fair.
