First of all, if every person in the world undergoes psychiatric evaluation, there will be a finding and files that will reach the moon with major diagnoses and little quirks that will require sliding scale dose of Ativan.

Noynoy Aquino’s supposed psychiatric evaluation can be interchanged with someone else’s name and will still pass as supposed truth. Everyone has their quirks. Everyone has a dark side. And just because someone is sensational and a public figure doesn’t not mean, they should have all their DNA’s in the right order.

All the Castros and the Marcoses and the Pol Pots have psychiatric evaluations that will require more than Ativan, heck maybe short and low doses of electrotherapy.

So, what’s the beef about this one Aquino being hurled with fake psychiatric evaluation? The simple answer–a smear. Someone is doing damage control over the idiocity of the C5 extension, or that other road built beside a string of subdivisions, or it might even be to cover the dumb answer to the question: “Besides your family, who is your best public servant choice” and here be the answer “My nanay!”

How stupid is that? I am not a political analyst. Heck, I am not even politically inclined, I may be apathetic to Philippine politics, but I am not dumb. I can connect the dots, I can read, and yes, I can write about it. This recent tactic? Fail. If I were in “that” opposing party’s strategic planning committee, I would dump the vile orange color, sell-out shares on the hundreds of subdivisions that profited from “highway robbery” (get it! ha, cheap joke), own up to the pro-poor me by living simply and yada yada yada. I can’t think of anymore. The damage is way too sewege.

No wonder, the Philippines is constantly hit by the proverbial tidal wave and instead of people running away from it, they run towards it, in hopes that they land as domestic experts in Hong Kong, nurses in Singapore, best drivers in Quatar or even professional hide and seek players in the US.

And no wonder, that the good people that stay and make something in and of themselves become “smogged” by the corruption and greed of the few. Man as his worst beast. I am not campaigning for one or for a few. I am just saying, if us ordinary people, average on all sides, just trying to keep afloat in this “Only in the Philippines”, keep on putting foremen who has the track record of a bad DUI driver, why ride in his passenger seat?

We, the people (have I heard this somewhere?), are required by an ethical and moral responsibility to alleviate ourselves from the quagmire of our nation. We have how many days left? 26?

Let’s ditch the cramming nature of our college days and be good adult citizens for our children (does this post all of a sudden sound like a public address read through a teleprompter? ha!) Let’s do our assignments.

NOW!

Heck maybe, we’ll help our helplessness and our political and economic hyposomnia.

We are headed to a major depression with bouts of psychosis, if we do not do something about it, no amount of borrowing and stimulus and spending can alleviate our poor. It is our choice, it should come from our ranks, our part of the grassroots to vote for _____.

The choice is always…yours.
