Mar & Noy
In a radio interview Saturday (August 29), presidential aspirant Mar Roxas said he is now willing to slide down to the VP race if his best friend, Noynoy Aquino decides to seek the presidency. In making that statement, Roxas hopes to solidify their friendship, cement party unity, and boost his ranking in the next presidential survey.
Mar & Noy II
Presidential aspirant Mar Roxas, who previously insisted that he wouldn’t slide down to the VP race has just announced on radio that he would give way to Noynoy Aquino if the latter decides to run for president. Mar’s latest pronouncement was hailed by everyone in the Roxas household… except for Korina Sanchez.

Party Wants Noynoy
The Aksyon Demokratiko party of former presidential candidate Raul Roco+ has formally endorsed Noynoy Aquino as its standard-bearer for the 2010 elections. Noynoy is reportedly enthralled by the support of Aksyon Demokratiko… mainly because her Mommy Cory and the said party have something in common – they’re dead.

GMA & Noli
Short of anointing Vice President Noli De Castro, President Arroyo, in a statement released Friday said she regards Kabayan “as a leader imbued with decency, capability, dedication to public service and genuine sensitivity for the Filipino masses that will make him a good President.” The Inquirer said the message was sent to the vice president through text message. And if rumors were to be believed, De Castro had a very prompt, very short, and very honest reply: “Madam President… what’s ‘imbued’?”
GMA’s Trips
Malacañang is now mum on President Arroyo’s upcoming foreign trips but the Department of Foreign Affairs says she may be in Libya as early as tomorrow, August 31. To avert another potential scandal, an advance party has been sent to Tripoli to scout for a carinderia.
In the News: Pangulong Arroyo, patungong New York at Libya
Bad News: Palasyo, naghahanap ng manlilibreng kongresista
RP’s Richest
Forbes Magazine reported that presidential aspirant Manuel Villar is the ninth richest Filipino today. He would have ranked a notch higher if the Comelec imposed a ban on premature political advertisements.

Briefly Noted
Have you heard the radio (political) ad of Joey “Back Off” De Venecia? It goes:
Si Joey De Venecia…
“Natigil natin ang anomalya ng ZTE. Napigil ang kurakot.”
Pero ang bwelta ng pamahalaan kay Joey napakalupit.
“Ang buhay ko, laging may banta. Hanapbuhay, inipit. Kanegosyo, tinakot. Pero lahat ‘to kaya kong tiisin makasama ko lang kayo sa pagsulong ng pagbabago at pag-angat sa kahirapan.”
Palabra de honor. Delicadeza. De Venecia.
Oh, come on Joey! All of sudden you wanted to be “with” us?! That’s a lot of bull! You’re just as rotten as those guys who were involved in the scandalous ZTE-NBN deal so drop that shitty impression that you’re some sort of a hero because you’re not. And please, stop using the people for your own selfish ends. Who do you think we are… Jarius Bondoc?!?
A more believable JDV III radio ad…
Si Joey De Venecia…
“Nawalan ako ng kontrata. Natigil ang pasok sa akin ng pera.”
Napagtanto ni Joey, mahirap pala kapag ‘di na House Speaker ang kanyang Daddy.
“Kompanya ko, sa bidding… natatalo. Hanapbuhay ko, apektado. Umaatras na rin ang ilang kasosyo. Pero lahat nang ‘to kaya kong lampasan dahil may papasukin na akong bagong negosyo – kayo! Tatakbo ako sa senado upang makasama ko ang mga tao sa pagsulong ng pagbabago at pag-angat sa kahirapan.”
Pork Barrel. Droga. De Venecia.

what the heck?! politics here in our country are insane. para na tayong nasa circus.
[...] Motives by the Professional Heckler [...]
Did you see how the Kennedy family handled the bi-partisan crowd in Ted Kennedy’s funeral some of them were bitter political enemies? Pure class and high level statesmanship. Compared that how Kris and Noynoy Aquino treated their political enemies in Cory’s funeral. No way the guy can be a good president.
paul i wonder if you ever have a clue how Noynoy handle Gloria at Manila Catheral? and i bet you’re not even in Pinas… or should a say P.I.?
and by the way, why would a liar deserve what you consider a pure class and high level of statesmanship?
Yes I heard him saying saying in TV that “bakit sila na naman maglilinis sa dumi nga iiwan ni gloria” when ask about running for president. Bakit malinins ba sila. Kaya ba nila buhaying ang 5 obrero at 2 bata sa luisita masacare o bayaran ang pawis at dugo sa mga mga obrero na ilang henerasyon sa hacieda luisita na sumusuporta sa kanialng “simple life”. The Kennedys at their worst were not as bad.
paul, ala eh ang layo na ga ng narating mo agad. ang masasabi ko laang eh, noong araw obrero din ako/pamilya ko, sinasaka namin ang lupa ng may lupa, subalit alam ko meroong nagmaymay ari sa lupa ako’y nagsikap sa ibang paraan, ngayon sa awa ng Diyos eh meron na rin akong sarili lupa. at ng dahil sa stupid Lina Law lahat ng pag aari ko eh pinabakuran ko, dahil ayokong kamkamin laang ng iba ang aking pinaghirapan at oras ng pumasok pa sila sa loob ng bakod ko eh malamang mabaril ko sila. palagay ko naman eh nakuha mo ibig kong sabihin. iyo kayang hacienda ni gloria palagay mo bakit hindi nila isama sa CARP? kung meron kayang mag-aklas sa hacienda nila ano palagay mo ang gagawin sa kanila?
Alá ahoy! Éh ano gá ang paké natin sa Kennedyńg yaán? Méron namang Rizal, Sacay, Abad Santos at kay–rami pang nagbuwis ng iwing buhay para sa inang bayan ang lahi nating suklam sa paniniil ay! Lasa ko’y makakapili katà ng pinuno nang hindi tumatanaw sa kanluran! Hindi gá? 8)
8)
ala eh gusto ko na ring magkomento tungkol riyan sa kay Kennedy na yaan eh, ako’y pinoy at eka nga eh… i don’t give a shit!
they are all hypocrite!
IN THE NEWS: Bukod sa pag–uusap nila ni Mar, sasangguniin din ni Noynoy ang mga kapatid niya kung siya’y dapat kumandidato.
BAD NEWS: Bago ang kandidatura ni Noynoy, unang reresolbahin ng mga kapatid niya kung sino ang dapat gumanap na Ninoy sa pelikulang tungkol sa mga magulang nila – si Cesar Montano, o si Piolo Pascual?
aba mister heckler, baka nakalimutan mo na,
na once upon a time, de castro was a broadcaster,
huwag mong sabihin na ni minsan hindi niya
nakasalubong si ‘imbued’, at inilevel mo na siya
kay lito l, hala ka…
PH how dare you compare LL with Noli de Castro!?
(tongue in cheek)
i knew the moment Joey de venecia came out na he has high hopes and ambitions in running in the elections! hindi tanga (well, hindi LAHAT) ng Pilipino ay tanga, at kaya nyong utuin. hindi nya yun ginawa para sa bayan, kungdi para sa kanyang pansariling hangarin! pare[areho lang ang mga politico sa pilipinas, mga Bobo, imoral, at walang delicadeza!
IN THE NEWS: Gloria Arroyo regards Noli de Castro ”as a leader imbued with decency, capability, dedication to public service and genuine sensitivity for the Filipino masses that will make him a good President.”
BAD NEWS: More than De Castro on the word ”imbued,” Arroyo knows not the meaning of decency, dedication to public service, and sensitivity for the masses.
up to this very minute, noynoy hasn’t proven anything yet,
what does ‘the paradoxic ley line ‘ wants noynoy to do,
perform miracles from now on until almost election time?
but truly, i think people will admire noynoy more if he
will not run because he himself knows his worth, it
will never be an honor to win just because he is their
son, he will never feel fulfilled which is what is most
important…
senior60, let me ask you a question, what did Cory, Ramos, Erap & Gloria or lets include Marcos have done that would prove them worthy to become President?
How Noynoy and family handled their Luisita problem is good enough proof for me. Pres Cory wanted CARP, but when it was their land that was involved, all sorts of tactics were done to spare the hacienda. It just proves that come crunchtime, bottom line is still for the family and the kamag-anak. The Filipino is worth dying for?, living for? Maybe. But certainly action speaks louder than words!!!
What has Noynoy done as a Senator ba? For me he seem too passive or sheepish to become a president. Mar would be a better president than him I think. We need a strong leadership. Someone who has a vision or a dream about what the country will be in the future.
Miriam Santiago is not running for president but I think she would really make a great president. Did you know that one-fifth or 20% ng batas na naipasa ay gawa ni Miriam? She proved to be na hindi lang magaling sa salita magaling din sya sa gawa. This woman is really amazing. We need more of her in Philippine politics.
mister heckler, at about 12:00 noon today, i posted
something about noynoy, ok lang naman kung wala
yun dito ngayon, gusto ko lang malaman kung bakit?
ay very very sorry mister heckler, bakit parang
hindi ko sya nakita awhile ago…
Albay Governor Joey Salceda is a big shame to his constituents. He is very TACTLESS.
Di ko kinaya ang: “Palabra de honor. Delicadeza. De Venecia”
DELICADEZA dinugtong ke De Venecia??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!syayyyyt. THE NERVE!
kapal.
Give me a fucking break
Palabra de honor? Delicadeza? I think the de venecia’s underestimate our intelligence.
Kaya Lang naman sya lumabas with the info kasi hindi sila napagbigyan ni GMA.
marlon, let us not dwell on our past presidents including
the present one, even writers will require years to accomplish
what you want me to do…
now to go back to noynoy, simply put, noynoy is reluctant to
run because he knows his worth, capacity, even now in the senate
he has not done anything, i have yet to see him stand in the
podium and deliver, many of them are just wallpapers, but never
mind the others because they will not run for the highest position..
senior60 & tagasubaybay, my point is, it does not really say in the book (read: Constitution) that anyone who wish to run for higher office has to have done something or prove himself first. i agree with you tagasubaybay that Miriam passed more bills, but have you ever wonder what does these laws mean to us as a people? i mean, fyi Philippines & Pakistan has more lawyers than Engineers and look where these coutries stand right now compare to South Korean, Malaysia and Thailand. And do you honestly believe that this laws really mean anything to the poor? go figure.
Kaya nga tatakbo si JDVIII because he thinks pinoys are a bunch of jarius bondocs. He’ll get supporters just like erap does.
IN THE NEWS: Other than his sensational NBN–ZTE bid, Joey de Venecia now bids for a senate seat on 2010 elections.

Mar willing to slide to VP if Noynoy declares presidential bid.

Damn Mikey, bobo at tanga na lang ang maniniwala sa kanya. Magdemanda na lang daw ang gustong magtanong para Ombudsman na ang sasagot for him. Damn justice system. Disgusting government from a disgusting First Family. Like father, like son. Anak ka nga ni FG.
i agree… but pardon my French, he is damn ARROGANT!
was able to watch his interview this morning sa Unang Hirit. nagisa si Mikey ni Mareng Winnie (galing mo Ms. Winnie
). putik ang yabang ng walang hiyang Mikey. di makasagot ng diretso. kesyo he’ll wait for his lawyer, bring it to court na lang daw. dami alibi ang hayop!
mister heckler
pwede mag suggest? yan ay kung pwede lang naman..
actually hindi ko alam kung papaano mag suggest, try
ko lang kung maintindihan ako..
yun bang ang postings naman will appear based on the
time we posted and not, parang , you will re-arrange it
according sa topic or something to that effect hahaha..
wala lang, napa hahaha lang ako sa aking ‘something
to that effect’
the truth of the matter is, kung pwede din sa mga suking
bloggers to please put translation to your posts if written
other than in pilipino or english for the understanding of
one and all….
speaking of ‘one and all’ dahil ber month na, let me be the
first to greet you , advance merry xmas and a happy new year….
…..the problem with RP politics is that it is personality oriented, so immature, look at Noynoy, maraming nagkukumbinse na tumakbo dahil isa siyang AQUINo, anak ni Ninoy at Cory….’yun lang, no performance track record to his own credit pero pilit ipinagtutulakan na kumandidato….he doesn’t have his parents’ charisma…he speaks arrogantly to begin with.
…ayun…kaya pala super pa-bida ‘yang JDV III na ‘yan sa NBN-ZTE eh trip palang tumakbo later….anong akala ‘nyo sa mga botanteng Pinoy? Gago? ‘Love your version PH re: this wannabe’s campaign pitch! Winner!
Why? Did Cory have a track record herself to begin with?
All the politicians in the Philippines has it’s own agenda, no Filipino politician is clean, good, willing to handle our country in the good way, and not corrupt. In this point, we have to choose the lesser evil and I believed Noynoy is the lesser evil.
All the politicians in the Philippines has it’s own personal agenda. In this point, we have to choose the lesser evil and I believed Noynoy is the lesser evil.
That’s the problem isn’t it? Its always the lesser evil and not the best candidate.
I’ll go for Noynoy. My two nieces of voting age too who are under my care. If only my six dogs can vote, I sure will convince them to vote for Noynoy.
I’ll be transferring my voter’s reg this week from Sing to here, now that am back for good.
What’s with Noynoy? I dunno. De Quiros’ columns and lotsa others have nothing to do with my choice. I just have this feeling he’ll come out as one of the cleanest Presidents we’ll ever have if he gets elected. He’ll be afraid to go wrong. Too much weight on his parents’ name for him to do that.
dash all.
i always read ur post. sadly, im not da type to frequently comment or broadcast my sentiments. juz want to say — im a big fan of ur heckling. nyahahahaha
D kip up da gud wit an oh.. i love Miriam defensor too. hehe. she’s quite a bomb.
– and oh 4 sum.
bakit kau ndi nagsisinugaling??
buwang mismo.
nyahahaha.
to JDV lll >>> BACK OFF !!!
para kay PAUL… magbasa ka iho tungkol sa buhay ng mga kennedy… wag mong pagtuunan ng pansin ang kanilang mabuting ginawa, maghalughug ka lalo na ang matandang kennedy,, sabi ng lolo ko… “ang kaunting kaalaman ay napaka delekado”
para kay PAUL uli, iho ang mabuti siguro ay uminom ka ng paxil bago ka mag halughug ng buhay kennedy para naman makalma ka pag may nalaman ka… wag kang bagbasa ng puro unang pahina lang ng dyaryo.. magbasa ka naman ng iba pa para di ka kahiya hiya….
Amen ako dyan, bone_marrow. O nasan na si PAUL, nanahimik, baka nagbabasa na ng tungkol sa mga Kennedy…
Ito’y di pagkampanya para kay Noynoy. Ngunit limiin – Di bagà’t may pagkakataong ang isang tao’y dapat kilatisin sa pagiging WALA at HINDI paggawa – HINDI gumawa ng grandstanding, WALANG ginawang self–serving budget double insertions, HINDI gumawa ng rub–out at salvaging, WALANG ginawang pagdodoble–kara para magkapera…
At oo, si Miriam din – nang má–impeach si Erap ay HINDI tumalon nang walang parachute mula sa eroplano.
marlon, i agree with you, as a matter of fact, the qualifications
to become a president is simpler to say, applying as an office clerk,
but noynoy’s case is different, he is already a senator and i just don’t
see in him the making of a good president, he is not aggressive, not
decisive as can be deduced from his actions now, and most of all,
we must not and cannot, sana, afford to have a soft president, please
Pag napapalaban na ang Pilipinas, kaya’ kaya ni Noynoy na kalabitin ang gatilyo!
IN THE NEWS: Kagabi, sa Club Pilipino, ay ihinayag ni Mar Roxas ang kahandaan niyang magtaguyod sa pagkandidatong Pangulo ni Noynoy Aquino. Si Korina ay nalentehan ng cameráng maluha–luha.
BAD NEWS: Ang sanhi ng pagluha ay di maunawa kung dahil sa pagsisisi’t panghihinayang kung bakit siya’y humiwalay pa’t nakipagkalas kay Noynoy.
WAS ON THE NEWS: Nasagip sa kabalahuraan ang sambayanang Pilipino nang kanselahin ng rehimeng–Arroyo ang maalingasngas na bilyong Pisong NBN–ZTE broadband deal dahil sa anomalya niyong isiniwalat nina Joey de Venecia at Jun Lozada sa nag–iimbestigang komite ng Senado.
BAD NEWS: Nang matapos ang imbestigasyon, ang kinakasuhan at pinasasampahan ng asunto ay sina Joey de Venecia at Jun Lozada.
I can’t stand this. Why would they let Ninoy run??? Is he capable?? I haven’t even heard of his accomplishments, his background, his etc’s! Nasa Senado na nga siya ala pa nga din ako masyadong nadinig sa kanya except that He’s the son of Cory.
I think He should inherit his father’s heart first and prove his credibility before even declaring because as far as I now, bloodline lang ang nagmamaneobra sa kanyang popularidad!
He’s just pushed by the people around him, that’s what I see. Ayokong iboto ang taong wala sa puso niya ang maglingkod. Parang pinilit ang dating eh. Prove himself muna!
Yekis said: I can’t stand this. Why would they let Ninoy run??? Is he capable?? I haven’t even heard of his accomplishments, his background, his etc’s!
Remember, Marcos was capable and had so much accomplishments; Gloria is the same; but look at what happened to our country. We became worst. Noynoy is more than capable, he’s just not power hungry. He is the best for us at this period of time. He doesn’t need to prove anything. His parent’s were his best teachers. But what he need is the people’s support to fight the evilness and evildoers of the country. The responsibility that Noynoy will be facing is more than huge because the country has been infested heavily and deeply.
Yes, that’s true. But, Marcos and Gloria the same? I don’t agree with that.
Yes, his parents are his best teachers. He learned but I didn’t hear any of those being applied on his position as a senator. If I would look in his term as a senator on what he has done so far, it can only be counted by my fingers alone.
What I want to see is how passionate he is for our country, just like what Sen. Ninoy Aquino Sr. and President Cory Aquino fought for. I barely heard his name fighting for corruption and the likes.
Support, I think he hasn’t mentioned what kind of support. Support to vote? Or Support after the vote? He may have been compelled to run because of the late President Cory Aquino but there’s still need a lot to consider and I hope he shows what he can do for the country and for the people, not what the people can do for him..
panalo ka talaga Mr. Professional Heckler!
inquirer Sept. 2… Joey de Venecia III …” for the first time since my college days I tried to withdraw from an ATM, only to see the message ‘insufficient funds’ ”
Ha! Ha! parang totoo ah!

Sabi pa ni JDV III “…in the two schools where I spent my formative years- Ateneo and La Salle…”
Aha!!! ayun ang problema!
If you stayed with Ateneo from grade school till you graduate in college, baka nag-iba ang kwento ng buhay mo!!!! Hmmmmp!!!
BTW heckler…Sa sept. 2 issue din ng inquirer eh may pic si Imelda beside so many tables with folders/papers on it with signs that says bank this and bank that.
