Elections are supposed to be democratic, so why not an election primary? With the Democratic Party primary elections going into their end game, and with still no real front runner in Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, at this point, it’s still a tough race for both candidates. The End Game is now, and […]

The economy, the economy stupid. It’s all about the economy. And when corruption is still a big player in our country, a poverty stricken nation we will continue to be.

It’s a no go. The Senate has refused the compromise offered by the Supreme Court, although I’m not sure if it was a compromise rather than a bail out. Apparently, the only constitutional thing to do is to do a case by case basis and render judgment as to whether each case of […]

Former Senior Government officials, 71 in all, have again issued a statement, they listed five demands. The demands are reasonable, and in the spirit of TRUTH, President Gloria Arroyo should heed these calls. However, it’s a long shot, and even Arroyo’s recent dumping of Executive Order 464 will again fall on deaf ears […]

Hillary Clinton has proven to those who were willing to count her out, that she definitely is the comeback kid. Barack Obama had won 12 in a row, including the early Vermont Win yesterday. But Super Tuesday Round two turned out to belong to Hillary Clinton as she won big in Rhode Island, […]

I’m screaming and fuming when I learn of such things as what has happened in the latest Supreme Court case regarding Romulo Neri’s constant use of Executive Privilege in order to evade answering and providing the TRUTH. He will attend The Senate’s Friday hearing into the NBN deal, but is still allowed to use […]

OK, I must admit, so engaged was I with the day to day events of our government and what was happening on the streets, that I totally lost track of what was happening online. Quite ironic if you think of it, because we make our home here online, in cyberspace, thus the dot com […]

As the people’s call for truth and accountability rings all over the country, Senator Mar Roxas said that it is now up to the Supreme Court to pull the government and the country out of the political stalemate ensuing out of the National Broadband Network (NBN) deal.

The recent attempts of The Arroyo Administration, whether they admit it or not, is an attempt to discredit Rodolfo Noel “Jun” Lozada. But they fail to realize, that the public opinion regarding the role of the administration in the NBN deal is already set in stone. Most people already think that the Arroyo […]

I received a comment on one of my posts from a certain Art Magno. He relayed to me the information that a blog has been set up by a group calling themselves Patriots for Truth. Although, I do not condone their one sided blitz against Lozada, I am furnishing a copy here […]
