		<description>I&#039;m still a believer of Pilipino sayings.

&quot;Birds of a feather flock together&quot;.

Pero mas matindi ang &quot;Kung ano ang puno, siya ang bunga&quot;.</description>

		<description>Chiz definitely does NOT have honesty and integrity!

This is the same man who said he did not want to be Villar&#039;s VP because of the C5 mess, saying something about his &#039;conscience&#039; not accepting it, and that he is for good governance.

And yet, Chiz Escudero remains an Erap apologist and loyalist.

How does Chiz Escudero define&#039;conscience&#039; and &#039;good governance&#039; that Villar fails his standard while Erap passes?

Chiz Escudero clearly has double standards and deny as much as he wants, is just your usual Trapo.

Chiz, ipalaman sa basura, hwag sa Malacanang.</description>

		<description>Pilipino, 

I don&#039;t want an immune president. I want an anti-body, a proactive one. I think Noynoy showed that he is too civil to be a leader. His family thought it best not to bring Cory to a defiled Malacanang, but he allowed the defiler to come, albeit like a thief in the night. A firm request for her not to come would have been more civil and definitive.

Which brings me to Carl&#039;s concern about the possible implication of Noynoy&#039;s and Mar&#039;s peculiarity at so late an age which Manolo so cavalierly dismissed. Ex-Senator John O has had to deal with it. Methinks though that it is tolerable up to that level.

Kung maaari lang sana sa Congress tayo ma-focused dahil naroon ang talagang problema. Saka pasensiya ka na kasi type ko si Gibo, e. Hehehe.</description>

		<description>I wish the Pilipinos will wake up in 2010 and basically &quot;remodel&quot; Malacanang, Congress and down to the lowest level of elective official.</description>

		<description>Based on previous years, tongressmen are like parasites of a huge host (GMA in Malacanang). Therefore if the host is out of commission (dead), basically kicked out of the Palace by term limits,then these parasites would surely look for another host. Aquino however has an inborn immunity to parasites. There maybe another way, the electorate will get their revenge and vote for the TRUE congressmen in 2010.Sabi nga ni quiros, &quot;May araw din kami!&quot;</description>

		<description>@KAIR: Why would it be SOP? Why would anyone voluntarily dig his own grave? Why would anyone (Gloria?) require him to? I think it doesn&#039;t make sense. 

2010 is not &quot;all about choosing a leader who would at best replace her and reverse the misgovernance the Arroyo administration has done to the country for 8 years.&quot; It is about choosing a LEADER. Period. 

Essentially, our Constitution is much flawed because its framers showed more concern with patching up possible leaks rather than in making the vehicle fit for our long journey ahead. Gloria a major factor in our choice? Yes, if we want to make the same mistake.

Fortunately, we have such persons as SoP who shows interest in Gibo&#039;s, in particular, platform. They would judge a candidate for what he is and for what he stands for, not with what others before him did. Would he be a tool of Gloria and her minions? Please. The presidency is not that cheap, nor is an elected President!

It is not only the opposition who should watch out for GMA&#039;S allies. It should be everyone&#039;s concern. Unfortunately, I have yet to see anybody sounding the alarm. There&#039;s me of course. Hehehe.</description>

		<description>@taxj: It would be SOP for the admin&#039;s candidate to defend GMA.  
You say the presidential race has nothing to do with Gloria, but it is all about choosing a leader who would at best replace her and reverse the misgovernance the Arroyo administration has done to the country for 8 years. Why people consider Gibo as a potential contender is due to his academic accomplishments, but this do not measure his ability to lead nor does it say anything of his integrity to rule. Would he be a tool of Gloria and her minions? That remains to be a question.

Nevertheless, I do agree that the opposition should watch out for GMA&#039;s allies in Congress. All must stay vigilant since Gloria and her gang are always on the lookout for schemes to perpetuate themselves in power.</description>
