PRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo fired National Archives Director Ricardo Manapat on Thursday, immediately distancing herself from the man at the center of a disqualification controversy involving opposition presidential candidate Fernando Poe Jr. that news really made me decide not to vote for gloria....well she always do that...( she is the female version of poncio pilato) this is not the first time she done this kind of stuff...during ERAP issue about jueteng she turned her back to the president...during the case of PIDAL...she done it too...that only proves she is always guilty....hahhaha....makes me laugh big time on all her action....she always want to clean herself in all the issue...right before it started.... my suggestion is for her to kill Fidel Ramos...lol ;D |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by mylane on Feb 5th, 2004, 7:06pm oh well....cant think of any scenario about fpj running or even winning.... well i think the real concern of the foreign investors is the possibility of FPJ being elected as PRES and ofcourse due to his lack of qualification and also sensible platform. This will create a cloud uncertainty to the future of our economy. if ever FPJ win. do u think there will be an EDSA 4? |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by mylane on Feb 7th, 2004, 7:31pm victor corpuz called loren legarda as political prostitute. He said Legarda will do anythin just for her to win. Gen. Corpus called Sen. Legarda a political prostitute, really does sound bad after all, enough to hurt even the good senator, who as a former broadcast journalist was supposed to be used to attacks. But I believe what Gen. Corpus means truly does apply to Sen. Legarda. ;D Switching to the FPJ camp, she showed that she deserves being called one. She cannot possibly deny the fact that she switched to the camp of the opposition. She has the right to change her mind of course, and that includes switching her allegiance to another political faction. But she should bear in mind the possible consequences of her actions like being called a political prostitute. i remembered her crying during the impeachment case when they didn't allowed to open the envelop....lol ;D |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by cebuanalyn on Feb 9th, 2004, 2:41am I salute Sen. Legarda and even voted her last election... Only if she didn't run under FPJ i will vote for her again... but too bad ...for her being FPJ's vice president made me think less of her now... how could she, whom i think is intelligent enough and qualified enough to run for president make herself being used by the one who doens't have any background/experience about politics? I do agree that she's doing it just for the sake of winning... but I hope that she won't :-X |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by mylane on Feb 9th, 2004, 2:58am yup...she will do anything just for her to win....see how politic works... well the camp of legarda said the corpuz is the military call boy....hahahah see how they acting....acting like kids.... if legarda is the political prositute the whos the political pimp? the pidal brothers? ahahahhaha ;D |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by gracia on Feb 12th, 2004, 11:56pm on my point of view...legarda run under fpj coz lots of actresses and actors supported him and that the masses are with fpj too and if and when fpj failed to play his role..NGO's will start the rallies and probably another edsa will happen and that will make her an instant president in no time. |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by kimmy_baby01 on Feb 17th, 2004, 12:46am the reasom why the mass ppl love FPJ its coz they think that he is the next ERAP.... and the reason why ppl loved erap it because he gives away money like its just candy... support his rally n he'll feed you.. Shout out his name in the elections n he'll feed you... Ppl dont care bout dollar exchange rates or if the countries economic stability is in danger... all they care about is that someone will give them money to buy food... Because they dont understand politics... I am not saying that in a bad way.. its just that they dont see the big picture... and who could blame them? they never went to school and they are dying of hunger... So why would they care about other ppl??? as long as you give them food they will vote for you.... Its sad to say that majority of us filipinos think this way.... we often fail to see the bigger picture.... I will vote for GMA not because she is all good n all knowing n everything. I will vote for her coz of all the candidates she is the least evil ;D .... it all boils down to chose b/w lesser evil... And this election will be all about GMA n FPj.... All of the other candidates dont have any chance of winning.... Roco??? what has he done to prove himself... as you said mymy he cant even handle a small group of ppl... Lacson?? He is only running coz he has no where else to go. He has to win or else all of his emenies will kill him ;D Vilarde??? if he wins does that mean born again ppl will get special attention n other religions will be second class citizens??? What ever happened to separation of church and state???and how about that other eddie whatchamawho? shit he claims he can pay off all our debts :D when he cant even pay for his hotel bills ;D is this guy for real? maybe he is richer than bill gates ;D as a closing statement.. i'll leave ya guys something to think about... i already know who to vote for president... but have you already thought about who to vote for senetors??? ALL of the senetors who are in position now NEVER did anything during their term... All they did was investigate in so many damn things...Congress made tons of laws n bill but they all got stuck in the senate... SO think about it, who should be the one to change the senate??? |

Title: wow kimmy is here....yehey!!! Post by mylane on Feb 17th, 2004, 2:23am I don't understand how someone who didn't even finish High School can run for president position. I'm sure that a lot of Filipinos think that FPJ is a good man but that doesn't make him a good candidate. Didn't we have this same situation with Erap? Noticed!!! How many Filipino celebrities are turning into politicians nowadays. They're using their popularity to win the votes of the people EVENTHOUGH they don't have formal knowledge and experience in politics. we better blame the COMELEC about this....i mean how did they rate candidates....whats the qualifications? hmmm.... Gloria Arroyo? Will you choose a president surrounded with alligators, crocodiles, vultures and snakes that limits/deteriorates her capability to do good for our country? About the senators....i still dunno who's running....as for de castro? i dont remember any task or bills that he accomplished? if theres any? and now he got lots of guts to run as VP....shame on him!!! |

Manny came out and knocked Juan Marquez down 3 times in the 1st round, but Marquez came back to tie the match. Pacqiao is a good fighter, but Marquez is the better boxer. Anyway I wonder if the president of pi still wants his support. Gonna be a rematch and i dont think Pacqiao is gonna win. |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by Bite_Me on May 15th, 2004, 2:50am I think one of the reasons why as you say Tina, we are behind other nations is that we put too much faith in our leaders as a people. We think that a president is going to transform our lives into something better. Maybe not better but "different" as compared to how things are right now. I vote not because i believe in the candidates. Elections here in the Philippines is no longer a choice between the best and the brightest. It is a choice between who is less corrupt, less sleazy and less evil. I voted for Roco not because i think he is right for the presidency. I voted for him because i agree that educating the people is the best way to change our country. No person can single handedly change our nation's state of affairs now. Democracy is supposed to be participatory governance. Our responsibility does not end after the elections. We are as guilty as our past leaders as to the state of nation is in now. It happened because we let it happen. I saw a movie recently about the life of Hitler. There's one quote there. - "The only requirement for evil to prosper is for good people to do nothing." |

Philippines is NOT a joke. Think about our history. The past, all those trials, war and sacrifices that our national heroes done just for us to have our own freedom again. Politics is one of the durtiest things in this world. And what's happening in our country right now also happened in other nation so it not so unique. Philippines is a democratic country. Sovereignty resides in the ppl and all government authorities emanates from them (us filipinos) It is not the fault of the government but the fault of the people. Just like what's happening right now. The rivalry between POE and ARROYO. This shouldn't be happening if the people learned and think about what happened in the past administration. Lots of Filipino think that FPJ is a good man but that doesn't make him a good president. We are the one putting our country in such a dilemma. Creating a cloud uncertainty to the future of our economy. |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by MissFartyPants on May 16th, 2004, 10:17pm It all comes down to this: Quoting Bite_Me "we put too much faith in our leaders ". On that note, let me rephrase what I stated previously. Everything about the Philippines today is a joke. I'll stand by that until I'm six feet under. I speak for myself and does not represent my tribe's sentiment/s. ;D |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by mylane on May 17th, 2004, 1:19am I respect your view and your own sentiment. here is mine own sentiment as well. If you say everthing about the Philippines TODAY is a joke, meaning the filipino of today is a joke too. Incase, your living in PI, then your included and can be called as a joke. And in my case, I do not want to be a joke. I hope that sentiment of yours will change before u get reach to that six fit under. :) |

This one of the strong reason why the Philippines is not progressing. Like I said in my previous post, it is all about the people, fault of the people. People already lost hope for their own country and hope for themselves too, to the point that they don't even take themselves seriously. Cuz Tina, no personal attack here.

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by Bite_Me on May 18th, 2004, 8:29am I think it was Shakespeare who said "Life for thinkers is comedy; and for the feelers, a tragedy." I'd like to think of Miss Farty there as being a thinker. In a world that beats your dreams out you, being a nut is a form of courage. Oh i didn't say that by the way. I believe i read that somewhere. Can't remember where. Tina and My are feelers. They are ruled by their hearts. Some people find more courage when they don't think about things "seriously". When you do not act as if you got the whole world in your hands, it don't mean you care less. Or that your capability for believing in goodness is lessened. As for voting for a candidate who is going to lose anyway: I think that the very nature of elections is for us to select which one we want to lead us. Yes, the person i voted for lost and will probably not win in any near future. But that's okay. I'd rather vote for someone i believe in, than vote for someone whose movies i will not even pay to see in the cinemas or vote for someone in exchange of PhilHealth cards and other services where the taxpayers' money have been used to buy favor. Elections is one way of saying, "No way, you do not represent me". But i am an advocate for democracy, that is why i respect whoever the majority of the people chose. Just like the person i voted for, i will not cry "Fraud" or whatever. All i say can is, we deserve the kind of governance we have because we elected them into office. |

Before i comment on ms farty post, i think before i react. i can be thinker and feeler at the same time. and thats the outcome if the that two qualities combined. ;) The fact that I have a prefer for one judgment mode (thinking or feeling) says nothing about their ability in the other mode - feelers like me az what you zaid may be logical and decisive, thinkers like mz. farty may be sensitive and compassionate, and both types have strengths. However, the two types have different needs and difficulties, which manifest themselves in almost every aspect of education. So my point iz.......we Feelerz whatever....are inclined to give more weight to subjective, personal considerations in making decisions and place great value on building consensus and maintaining harmony. People with a strong preference for feeling are often thought of as warm and empathetic, tend to be more tactful than truthful, and often consider strong thinkers insensitive and overly analytical ;D I thnk itz all zaid and done. ;) [smiley=sla.gif] |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by serious_block on Jun 21st, 2004, 3:21am Yeah right mylane,... pray for the best, because as of now, i'm expecting the worst from our government. With GMA in office, it'll only lead us into an abyss of world debt. GMA will make our country a fourth world one, if there is such a thing. She's the worst thing that happened to this country! ERAP is a close second! Marcos is a distant third! |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by mylane on Jun 21st, 2004, 9:18am I just watched the news a while ago and Miriam Defensor really cracked me up. She said that FPJ should accept if ever the GMA administration offered him a position in the government. She also said that the if ever FPJ will do a movie again its not gonna be successful or might turn into one of those flop movies except if his is going to be nude. Not to mention Miriam's advice to Pimentel: Instead of filibustering, to "write his memoirs. It's far more interesting than the speech he delivered last Tuesday. Especially his sexual exploits, which I suspect is very active." Oh, Miriam is really getting bitchy indeed. She even mentioned about begging and suxing the administration toe. Miriam is not a neophyte in the bloodied political arena. She certainly has been through a lot of ordeals and wranglings and her words now have a semblance of wisdom from a person too tired of politics yet can't breathe without it. But her credibility, is shaky because she has been known to contradict her own statements and she is prone to jumping ships when her political boat is sinking. Let just hope that she will concentrate on doing a good job in the senate making sensible laws than using her acid tongue and allow herself to be used by political allies to lambast those whose asses she used to kiss with reverence. |

Actually, what I'm more afraid of are those people around Gloria especially her fat corrupt husband. Should I mention Fidel Ramos? One thing I'm sure with this GMA victory is the coming back of US military based in Olonggapo. She almost kissed Bush ass when Bush visited PI. Marcos should have been better without Imelda. As for Erap, he is just a victim and his being ignorant and naive cost him alot. |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by thebeast on Jun 30th, 2004, 11:23pm I think the US military would be a good thing for the Phillippines. I would try to get the army, navy, and the air force there if possible. Hell those GIs spend a lot of money and with new military bases means lots of civilian jobs. The United States Government is the largest employer here in the states for both military and civilian jobs. Phillipines should of never let them go in the first place. Maybe some kind of deal could be made to take care of all of the radicals in no mans land (aka the provinces). Those dudes are killing the phillippines tourism industry. I talked with a dude the other day. He said he had a gf there in PI in one of the provinces, but he was scared to go back because he was scared because he might get kidnapped and held for ransom and his family wouldnt pay it. They would just say keep him. |

Title: Re: Phillippine Election 2004 Post by thebeast on Jul 3rd, 2004, 1:58pm Mylene, I was talking with a guy I graduated with at my high school reunion. I didnt know him very well and I was on my 20th beer when I was talking with him probably. He told me the place where his gf was at but I forgot. These sugestions I made are not the panecea for the phillippines or any other 3rd world country or any country at all for that matter. What every country needs is a government thats not corrupt. And even with a legitimate government in charge it is still not that easy. It takes time and a whole lot of change and a people who is willing to sacrafice thier time and sometimes even thier own lives for what they believe in. This is not an easy task to accomplish because everyone is different so it also takes a little give and take into the mix as well. Also equal rights for both sexes and all different races has a lot to do with it as well. Things arent perfect anywhere not even here in the United States. I think it would be benificial for both the United States and the Phillippines to have a good economic relationship. Over the years I have met lots of people on here from and living in the Phillippines. I think they are wonderful people and that even includes you mylene. So if I sound like I am putting down your country or if I sound like a know it all on phillippine politics and the problems the wonderful phillippine people face over there that is not my intention. ;) |
