Many of us were OUTRAGED when we learned na ang drama pala talaga ni Gloria, tatakbo rin pala. And it is already a given that she will win Pampanga pretty easily and her return to Congress will just be that easy.
But really, the goal here is to push for Charter change (Cha-cha)—and possibly bring about a shift to a parliamentary government, where she could bag the post of prime minister.
One blogger has an answer.

If you do not want to see GMA as your next Prime Minister, …

Tigil muna massacre na to mga kabarrio. Eto pala ang chika: nahuli pala si Tiger Woods at ang say nang first love ko:
“Hey, it’s, uh, it’s Tiger. I need you to do a huge favor. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. Do this for me. Huge. Quickly.”
Bwahaha! I have no clue ba’t nag-e-enjoy ako sa aking boylet na to hahaha! So, now alam nyo na ba’t andami kong pangalan ~evil grin~ hehe! Pour moi? Ok lang …

A military’s job is to remain quiet?
I’ve been glued on TV 24 horas, listening and watching the latest on the Maguindanao massacre. It’s unbelievable how they planned this bloody carnage. It is also puke-wrenching listening to those two military personnel who were at the checkpoint who claimed that they have no clue and/or is not a part and/or they were a victim too and that given that they were afraid of their life, they chose to be quiet. Yong dalwa have not made their statements daw. Pero, un momento senor! …

Nagpanting ang tenga nang Chuva Chienes nung nalaman nya ang gagawin ko. As usual, litanyang bulyaw ang inabot nang lola.
Chuva: Baliw ka ba talaga?! Ba’t mo gagawin ang gagawin mo?
Ako: At ano ang mali sa gagawin ko eh I like change? Drastic change?
Chuva: ~kablag!~
Kaya pag-uwi ko nang Bicol, matutuwa ang koya. Nagbago na ako. Eto ako sa Eastwood Mall.

Nambaba-bae na ako. Hindi lang isa. Dalwa sila.

Yong isa, tiga-ayos nang buhok ko. Yong isa, tiga-linis nang aking nails.

I also had a brief lunch sa magandang binibining to. Taken kani-kanina lang at …

Barrio Siete Collective Blog was conceived with a common goal of responsible freedom of expression, radical tracing of one’s provincial roots and the upholding of democracy via the written form of communication despite of various differences and diversity among its members.
One proof of this is the fact that Barrio Siete writers consist of members with different faiths (including Islam), with different financial and legal status, with different political views, with different ideologies, …

Statement by Inday Espina-Varona, former chair of the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines

The abduction and murder of around 45 persons, including around a dozen journalists, in Ampatuan town, Maguindanao is a spear thrust in the heart of our fragile democracy.
Let us grieve not just for our media colleagues — though theirs is an especially tragic fate, to die in the line of duty, serving a profession that more often than not deprives provincial practitioners of a living wage and social benefits.
Let us grieve, too, for the other dead: …

“They belonged to the rival Mangudadatu clan, but since they were women accompanied by a media delegation, they believed they were safe, protected by the Koranic prescription to spare women. No one could have predicted the ruthlessness that met them. At least 36 people, mostly identified with Buluan, Maguindanao vice mayor Datu Ismail “Toto” Mangudadatu and including a dozen media people, were abducted and later killed on Monday by gunmen allegedly led by members of the Ampatuan political clan. Toto’s wife, Genalyn Tiamzon-Mangudadatu, was among those killed, according to Toto …

There is this big chika going viral about Noynoy’s absence on the 2nd round of the Isang Tanong Presidential Forum, which I believed started in MoTwister’s blog. The anti-Noynoy camp are feasting on a flurry of negative explanation. Here’s what Motwister wrote on his blog:
“Chismis time: …. And here is a bit on information you might not know. This is a two-part show, last night and then the other half to be aired this Sunday. The next episode was supposed to have a twist where we will …

Barrio Siete had the privilege of interviewing Efren Peñaflorida. Here’s Mahalia’s interview: An Extraordinary Life: Exclusive Interview with Efren Peñaflorida

Efren Peñaflorida was named the 2009 CNN Hero of the Year at gala show attended by Hollywood stars like actress Nicole Kidman and featured performances by Grammy Award-winning artist Carrie Underwood, R&B crooner Maxwell and British pop sensation Leona Lewis. CNN’s Anderson Cooper revealed Peñaflorida’s selection at the conclusion of the third-annual “CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute” at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood on Saturday night. The Tribute airs at 9 …

Truly! the boat is sinking!
Everyone is jumping at iisa ang pinupuntahan, the LP Party of Noynoy and Mar. Mamya nito we won’t be able to distinguish which one is which. Iisa na ang kulay nila. And the funny thing is that each olympic jumper have their own rabid err valid reasons na lumipat. La! La! La! Kanya kanyang harbat de salbabida yet, they were all silent and riding through all the good times with La Senora de’l Pasig River while everyone of us are in purgatory. Just wer wer …

Oh’ don’t look at me like that?!

Now, according to Gawker, there is no …

Hate blogs started to sprout against Barrio Siete and Reyna Elena. These are brought to you by no other than BongV, our pseudo-intellectual resident of Barrio Siete, the most talkative of all the charlatans, the most intelligent of all human kind, teaching us the theory of the morons, decided to partner with Benign0, our most revered agent heckler provocateur who saw it best to open hate blogs, directed at Barrio Siete and Reyna Elena. You see, in Barrio Siete, we get to know each other very …

Ano ba koya?! Aalis ka ba or what?!
Backup.
Lumipat nga si Ralph Recto and Vilma Santos sa LP. And that was the problem. Nang-galaiti ang Sergio Osmenta. Well, to many, wa problem ki Vilma Santos. Many are saying that she’s clean. And me problema daw is Recto. Don’t ask me hahaha magbasa kayo sa Ellenville, favorite blog ni Benign0, me malalaman kayo about Turtles on #41. Hahaha! Kaya naman nag-bolt out – or balak atang mag-bolt out ni Osmena out of LP Party. Akala ko, he was gone. Hindi pa …

In this picture, you’ll see Kristie Kenney distributes relief supplies from the USAID (US Agency for International Development) to residents affected by the recent typhoon and the continuing flooding of areas along Laguna Lake on Tuesday Oct. 6, 2009 at Binan township, Laguna province, south of Manila, Philippines. Unlike some wives of mayors or congressman or senators distributing relief goods, they have to be dressed for the occasion with dangling sparkling bling-blings. Kristie? look at how she was dressed.
I have nothing but praises for the U.S. Ambassador to the …

Meet the person who wants to become the “Emperor of the World.” He is Rigoberto Madera Jr., a 61-year-old. He said he is a “six-star general”. Officially the 1st to file his certificate of candidacy at the Comelec on Friday at 8:40 a.m.
He said, he is winning the latest survey at pati ang Dyos pinagtrabaho nang walanghiya dahil god is backing him up. Leche talaga oo! So god is looking for some funds for his campaign. Alam kaya to sa Vatican???
Anyway, his name rhymes with CNN. He calls himself, N.N.N.–short …

Are you enjoying this election campaign?! Grabeng awayan! Personalan na sya! Hahaha! Sometimes nga, I have no more clue what to blog because I would then follow kung ano ang rebuttal nang other side. Mas maganda sya to follow instead of the 2012.
By the book di ba dapat journalists are supposed to be fair to humankind, bring peace and goodwill to all men and women. Ok. A lot of times, puro horror and dala nila. Pag politics na kasi, they are already using the newspaper as their …

In a comment in this entry, BongV said:

Using the same sampling base, considering that he went from 60% approval in October (SWS) to 44% approval in October (Pulse Asia) – that’s a 16% reduction in 2 months. With 6 months to go, as the campaign becomes more issues-oriented – under the worst case scenario (decrease of 16% every 2 months) –
September 2009 – 60%
November 2009 – 44%
Jan 2010 – 28%
Mar 2010 -12%
This is what happens when you try to bluff people by using words like sampling base or worst case …

From the Facebook of Raul Ibanez:
In its motion for reconsideration filed with the Comelec Wednesday, the group said that there are no evidence on record that establish their alleged immorality. “Just as the judicial entity may not suffer moral damages apart from its incorporator, director, officer or any one member, Ladlad may not be deemed to be immoral on account simply of the unsubstantiated belief that its members are engaged in any such immoral practice,” the motion read. Ferrer, meanwhile, is not keen on apologizing to Remoto and his group.
“Why …

We are now 6 months away from that magic month of May. Yeap. I hope there ain’t gonna be any Comelec magic for survey after survey, Noynoy has been leading all the way. So, just like what JB Baylon said, is the Noynoy Presidency inevitable?
The phenomenon that is Noynoy is actually something more than Noynoy, something bigger than Noynoy. Its Noynoy, yes, but more than Noynoy it is also all about Cory. Yes, to some extent it is also about Kris. To some extent it …

It all started when I wrote this blog entry: My Legazpi City. I would ran across the multiply blog of this Bicolano blogger. His photos were just unbelievable. Since then, I’ve been a fan. Have a look.

You could almost make saing or kaya mag-barbeque.

From the blog of Raissa Robles:

It was an ambush interview and therefore the question – “Why are you still a bachelor?” – understandably caught him by surprise.

The Philippines has had only one wifeless president – Elpidio Quirino – but he was a widower grieving over his wife Alicia and three of his five children who were murdered by Japanese soldiers during the Battle of Manila in the Second World War.
Some politicians (and perhaps Sen. Noynoy himself) probably thought my question impertinent and an invasion of privacy. Let me explain. When …

Did you hear the latest buzz?
Well, it’s about a trilogy.
Ok, maybe not.
Allegedly, it’s about Manny Pacquiao, Krista Ranillo, Jinkee Pacquiao and a blogger called Coconuter. Gosh he’s cute! I wanna buy him a sellphone! Grrr! Ok. Sumesemplang ako sa topic.
Well, according to the grapevine, si Manny daw and Krista…
ahh…
Honestly?!
Wala akong pakialam kung ano man ang gawin ni Manny or ni Krista or ni Jinkee hahaha! Have fun Manny! Enjoy! Hahaha!
Geez, bakit ako? Limang boylets, nag-convention pa kami, walang na-antig na blogs?!
Anyway, balik tayo ki Coconuter. The poor blogger is …

Can you imagine that happening in America?
Not.
Well, ok. Close.
But in my turd world kawntri called the Flippines, most of our policitians must have had severe internship at makodonorado flipping burdyers that they flip in split second no matter how much they spit at each other before.
Like:

Yeap. Senator Benigno Aquino III is autistic. Raissa Robles, mon FB ami, offers some “proof”.
The evidence that Sen. Noynoy is abnormal – and therefore should not be voted president – seemed all there.
And Business Mirror columnist Butch del Castillo recounted it in excruciating detail using unnamed sources who had seen Noynoy acting “autistic.”
Butch wrote:

This must be true, I thought in horror. Except for one tiny detail . Let’s see, Noynoy was 3 when this incident happened. And how old was Kris?
Noynoy was born February 8, 1960 and Kris was …
