I couldn’t believe my eyes, as I read a post over at Uniffors.com, as Manuel B. received a text from The Arroyo camp which read,
Let’s try to be true Christians and pray for God’s healing powers to benefit Cory in body and attitude. Might be the Lord’s way to convert us all. In the process […]

For the last few weeks, The Spratlys Issue has been the top story. The Joint Marine Seismic Undertaking for which President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is accused of signing of on is no less the basis for even more investigations on the “deals” and “agreements” with China and The Arroyo Administration itself. The President, because […]

The key spin coming from Malacañang is that the worst is over. The spin coming from opposition Senators is that the worst is yet to come. Most Anti-Gloria groups echo the calls of many opposition Senators. But the battleground keeps shifting, and without a true focus, and a real commitment by all […]

I had originally titled this post, “Stop The Corruption, and the Rallies will stop”. But now that I think about it, it’s a wrong title because I firmly believe the rallies should not cease, because the crimes have already been done. And even if President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo ceases to do any more […]

President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has some powerful allies and some powerful enemies. And with this oppositional tandem always in play, she has proved her worth as a shrewd politician. Even in the darkest of hours for her political career, she has used every means possible in order to stay in power. And when […]

Before the Hello, Garci scandal that nearly had President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo out of Malacañang, we had The Spratly issue. But we would not realize the importance of this Spratly deal with China until just a month ago in the midst of the NBN deal scandal. It’s unfortunate however, because the China State […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 government–the most potent force to bring change to […]

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 […]

Call me cynical, call me arrogant, call me idealistic, or maybe you can call me justified. But didn’t it bother anyone else, that the interfaith rally last Friday had on stage the former symbol of corruption in The Philippines? Former, or maybe just the previous, it’s a play on words really. He […]

Here’s a virtual look at the interfaith rally for those who weren’t able to attend. Two videos, first is from GMA News and the second is from a street point of view as the people march towards Makati.
Erap’s great line today, “I was understaying, Gloria is overstaying”

Today, there is an interfaith rally in Makati. A Stand for truth, justice and change. There is a call for resignation. There is one voice among many. A united front. The Arroyo Administration is taking notice. Their fear is growing in proportion to the ever increasing calls for the […]

Being president is an honor bestowed upon an individual who gains the trust of the people. The presidency is a position of trust, and without trust, the position is compromised. The people have been second under the Arroyo administration, it has been second from the very beginning. And as I have contemplated […]

The Center for People Empowerment in Governance released their Issue Analysis No.3 on February 8th. In this article titled Governance by Arrogance, the focus is mainly the way The Arroyo Administration seems to be governing especially in the light of the recent events of the Jose De Venecia ouster and The Jun Lozada debacle […]

As early as last year, we knew that there was something fishy about The NBN deal, and yet, the administration chose to pursue it last year even under the guise of Executive Agreement (in order to bypass the Senate). It was eventually terminated, but in that termination, shouldn’t the government already have started its […]
