Sabi ko na nga ba, bibilog na naman ng buhangin si Gloria Arroyo tungkol sa kanilang pinag-usapan ng Santo Papa.
Sabi niya na ang “wish” raw ni Pope Benedict XVI na magkasundo ang simbahan at ang pamahalaan. Ang interpretasyon ni Arroyo ay magbubulag-bulagan na lamang ang simbahan sa kanyang mga krimen.
Sabi niya,”Makikita na ang gusto ng Santo Papa ay magandang relasyon sa pamamagitan ng Simbahan at pamahalaan.”
Sabi pa rin niya”Talagang alam niya ang tungkol sa Pilipinas, iyong kanyang mga tanong, mga komentaryo, ang masasabi ko very supportive at encouraging.”
“Itong aming pinag-usapan, very encouraging siya sa ating mga patakaran at very supportive sa ating mga patakaran at inaasahan ko talaga na patuloy iyong suporta ng Simbahan sa ating mga sinisikap na gawain, lalo na para sa mahihirap dahil iyon naman talaga ang mahal ng Simbahan at ni Hesukristo, iyong mahihirap,” dagdag pa niya.
Mabuti naman at sinupalpal siya ni Archbishop Oscar Cruz. “Don’t make a fool of him because he is not (Huwag mo siyang gawing tanga dahil hindi siya tanga),” sabi ng arsobispo ng Lingayen at Dagupan.
Sabi pa ni Archbishop Cruz na alam ng Santo Papa ang tungkol sa Hello Garci tapes kung saan narinig ang usapan nila ni Comelec Commisioner Virgilio Garcillano tungkol sa pagdaya noong 2004 na eleksyon.
Alam din ng Santo Papa ang pinagpipilit ni Arroyo na pagpalit ng Consitution para manatili sa kapangyarihan habambuhay, ang pagpatay ng mga kritiko ng administrasyon at ang kanyang all-out war sa mga miyembro ng mga progresibong organisasyon, sabi ni Archbishop Cruz.
Ipinaliwanang ni Archbishop Cruz na ang sinabi ng Santo Papa na “well done” ay ang pag-alis ng death penalty at hindi sa mga ginagawa niyang panloloko ng taumbayan.
Malala na talaga ang takbo ng pag-iisip ni Arroyo. Sinabi lang ng Santo Papa na dapat magkasundo ang simbahan at pamahalaan, pinamalita na niya na dapat suportahan na siya ng mga mga obispo dito sa Pilipinas.
Kung matino ang kanyang pag-iisip dapat tigilan na niya ang kanyang mga kasinungalingan at panloloko ng taumbayan dahil yan ay labag sa katutusan ng Diyos at ng simbahan.
Siya dapat ang mag-iba ng ugali. Unang-una, magsabi siya ng totoo sa kanyang ginawang pandaraya noong eleksyon. Dahil sa hindi naman siya binoto ng taumbayan, dapat mag-resign na rin siya ay magtawag ng snap election para makapili ang taumbayan ng lider na gusto nila. At hindi siya mandaya ulit, ha.
Baka mapatawad pa siya ng taumbayan.
Me nabasa pa nga ako na updated daw si pope sa mga nagyayari dito sa Pinas.
Masyado nay binibigyan ng importante ang sarili nya..
alam pa nga daw ni Pope ang tungkol sa Garci…
Dapat naman talagang magkasundo ang simbahan at pamahalaan.
Pero di dapat magdikta ang dalawang side.
Di nga dapat sunod sunuran ang simbahan ke GMA at
Di nga dapat magmando ang simbahan pero dapt pakinggan na nya ang sinasabi di lang ng simbahan pati na lahat ng mamamayan.
What can we expect from somebody devoid of values and principles. She really is living in her own fantasyland where everybody loves her. This pretender is only good at three things, lying, cheating and stealing. She had said so many lies that now she believes them to be all true. Best word to discribe her, delusional psychopath.

Halatang pinagaralang mabuti ni Gloria ang matamis na pagngiti, sa ospital at sa Vatican, kitang-kita sa mga mata niyang “pa-cute fake & artificial”, resulta umasim ang ngiti.
Kapag kayo pinakitaan kunwaring ngiti at kunwaring giliw,
asahan mong ito’y isang taong mandaraya at sinungaling.

Nagtataka pa ba kayo kung magsinungaling si gloria tungkol sa pinag-usapan daw nila(kuno) ni Pope? Alam naman nating lahat na ganun siya talaga. ang ipagtaka natin ay kung magsalita na siya ng katotohanan……ibig sabihin nun ay tumino na siya, gumaling na ang kanyang karamdaman sa utak at hindi na siya nagda-dayarrhea.
Ito namang sina defensor, por diyos por santo mike!! nagkakandabuhol sa pagtatahi ng mga kasinungalingan (din) para lamang gumanda si gloria,the black magic woman, the damien omen, the anti-Christ, the devil woman, satan’s lady, etc sa paningin ng tao. Stupido!!! isa ka na rin baliw Defensor. Nakakahawa pala ang pagkabaliw?? Kaya pala kapag nagsalita sina bunyeta, ermitanyo at siraulo ay parehong pareho sa tono ng mga salita ni gloria? Lahat sila ay baliw na!!! BWAHH HA HA HA!!!
Teka lang, ano nga ba talaga ang sakit ni gloria?, me nagsasabi: sa utak, sa liver, sa tiyan,??? Mabalik nga pala ako dun sa Italy, nakakatakot ang mga suot nina gloria doon, lahat sila naka-itim. Lalong lumantad ang kanilang pagiging kampon ng kadiliman-isama pa ang malademonyong tawa ni gloria. susmaryosep!!! BWWAAHH!!
Tigas naman ng mga ulo ninyo, sinabi ko na sa inyong uminom ng Diet pills ang ungas dahil nga kakain ng marami sa handa ng asawang Fatso 30 minutes bago kumain. E ang daming kinain, e di naimpatso, sumakit ang tiyan at tumakbo ng kobeta. Naisip ngayon ng mga nandoon na chance na nilang makatulog si Daya Rhea kaya itinakbo sa ospital, tapos tinawag siguro iyong nagretoke ng mukha niya para magmukha siyang Dadong Macapagal kasi lumalabas na ang tunay niyang mukha. Kaya tignan ninyong mabuti iyong mukha nya before and after ng recent retokeng ito. Ibang-iba! Iyong ngiti, wow, ngiting Judas! Tapos para magmukhang payat, puro ngayong itim ang suot!

Guys!!!, guys!!! did anyone of you saw last night’s viewpoint??? have anyone of you noticed the puffing face of NOGNOGrales??? pathtetic, he, who is one of the TONGressman who killed the impeachment last year, again, is protecting the leprechaun, again he is showing his true color, how I wish the impeach complaint could be transmitted to the senate for all of us to know the truth.
Anyhow, goldenlion, if I may add, the balck color symbolizes that the leprechaun and the beast from the east (FG) her clowns, and co-horts are simply readying themselves to pounce on the pope so that they can declare the leprechaun the first woman pope, heheheheheheh, their balck color dress/clothes connotes the true color of the leprechaun, tsk, tsk, tsk, (buti na lang at nagwagi ang kabutihan, heheheheheheh….)Patawarin sana nawa akon ng santo papa.
Addition, the reason why a neuro the first to check on the leprechaun was to check her sanity, pinatingnan ang utak nya, para malaman ang kalaliman ng kanyang kahibangan, kaya etong si mike defensor hindi malaman ang gagawin, at itong siRAUlo gonzales, dikit agad sa dokctor at binantaan ng papatawan sya o di kaya ay tatawagin syang destibilizer pag sinabi nyan may tupak na sa ulo si leprechaun, hehehehehehehe…….

Aba, pinabubulaanan nina Bunyeta na pinaghintay si Bansot ng lider ng Italy dahil sa totoo lang hindi naman siya kinumbida doon ng mga Italiano siguro kundi nag-gate crash lang siya. Ganyan ang trabaho niyan. Ginawa na niya ang ganyan sa Japan. Remember noong nagpunta iyan dito noong pagkatapos ng 9/11? Alam niyang sarado ang airport gawa nga ng takot sa mga terrorist at ang mga opisyal na hapon ay busy na inaasikaso at inaalam ang kalagayan ng mga hapones na inakalang nandoon sa Twin Tower nang mangyari ang pagbagsak niyon dahil sa terror attack daw, aba, nagpunta pa rin dito para mangutang, etc.
Di wala ngayong sumalubong na opisyal na hapon sa kaniya at pinagbigyan ang kahilingan ng Philippine Embassy na payagan makababa sa airport. O ano ang isinulat noong mga sipsip sa kaniya na mga peryodistang pilipino. Binastos daw siya ng mga hapon sa isang importanteng state visit e hindi naman state visit iyon!
Ang bastos ba na parang pumunta sa isang bahay na nagkakagulo ang may sambahayan gawa ng may mga namatay at walang panahon na asikasuhin siya kasi siya mismo hindi nababagabag doon sa mga kapwa niya mga pilipinong nasawi din sa 9/11 attack. Ang tindi ng hallucination ng lukaret na ito talaga! Papag-awayin pa ang bansa niya at ang Hapon e hindi naman siya tunay na pangulo ng bansa! Ganoon kagulo ang taong ito, bakit iyan tino-tolerate? Ang tindi talaga!
Palagay ko wala namang imbitasyon iyan na pumunta sa Europe at gusto lang ilakad na maging santa ang mga tita noong Fatso para may pangtulak sila na sila ay mga banal kung sakaling matuloy ang pag-i-impeach sa kaniya, at saka tama kayo, para ipaglandakan na mas pinakikinggan siya ng Papa kesa doon sa mga banal na pare ng CBCP at mga bumabatikos sa kaniyang archibishop lalo na iyong nasa Dagupan!
Ngayon kung matino naman iyong Papa at talagang kinatawan ng Diyos, sa palagay ko naman ay hindi siya magbibitiw ng salitang alam niyang ikakagalit ng milyong-milyong mga pilipinong katoliko na sukang-suka na sa sinungaling na iyan. At saka tuturuan siya ng Diyos kung demonyo o hindi ang kausap niya.
Sa palagay ko ang sinabi ng Papa sa kaniya nang tapikin siya sa likod ay, “You be a good girl now. Don’t tempt my priests and nuns to anger, especially the archbishop in Dagupan! God will not bless you if you do! You will go to hell, for sure, if you do not try, you see!” Kaya maasim ang ngiti niya! Ang masagwa hindi nakaramdam ng hiya!

Additonal……
Mike defensor and ermita are singing the samae tune…..want to know why??? simple, remember the infamous statement of mike defensor “its the president voice, but it is not her (somthing like that)???? ermita’s version is this way:
“there is no truth to Estrada’s charges, even if the video showing Mrs. Arroyo admitting that she and five sets of military generals conspired to oust Estrada a year before the actual ouster was documented”
Pathetic, ermita who is not known to lie, have learned to master the art of deception thu his superior, the LYING/CHEATING AND STEALING SOB!!!!!, who is again using the pope to gain popularity and credence.
STUPID!!!, STUPID, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!, STUPID!!!,

Ellen:
Thank God for you! Salamat sa Diyos at may mga katulad mo pang matapang na alamin ang katotohanan at hindi nangingiming mag-demand ng katotohanan! Keep it up, girl!
I know God is on your side, and He will protect you especially now with this crook, who can have the nerve still to say she is holy despite the number of journalists like you, human rightists, lawyers, etc. being falsely accused of being communists, etc. and executed on her order without fair trial by her lapdogs!
Worst is when she blasphemes even the leaders of her church with all her pronouncements that make them look like in cahoot with Satan themselves! The point is why is the Catholic Church heirarchy tolerating her? Why are they allowing this cheat to malign the Catholic Church in the Philippines, even kind of intimidate and harrass them with such fallacious statements that the Pope sides with her than with his priests and nuns in the Philippines?
I’m not a Catholic but I do find this disturbing, because the truth is it is not good for the spiritual growth of the Filipinos, whom God in fact has favored and blessed with faith in Him.
What is really disturbing is when this woman seeks justification for her evil scheme to even perhaps try to control the Catholic Church like what the Chinese in Mainland China has done. If she has her way, she is likely to even charge the Archbishop in Dagupan of libel perhaps and for defying the Constitution about the separation of Church and State and condemn him to prison and recommendation for demotion from his exalted position.
Look at how this woman tries to corrupt and destroy Filipinos, even their faith in God, whom a lot many must have thought has forsaken them so that they are now willing participants in this evil scheme of pimping them overseas even when it leads to their corruption, and the destruction of millions and millions of homes!
Worst is when she tries her dumbest to destroy even the Pope by making him look as evil as herself making up all those lies to justify the evils that she has done even to her church with a lot many people now seeking better understanding of God and even their own faith in some other religion, and the reason for the amazing number of conversions in such churches and cults as Iglesia ni Cristo, El Shaddai, etc.
In our church alone,I understand that the least we get is 30 to 40 baptisms a month that missionaries elsewhere like Japan find amazing and enviable. It’s definitely a welcome development although we wish they would seek God with much more real intent and a pure and humble heart!
Puro pagpapalapad na lang ng papel ang inaasikaso ni Pamdakekong. Nakalimutan na ata na she is responsible to more than 80M whom she’s sworn to serve. Wala nang maisip gawing mabuti sa mga mamamayan kundi puro pangsarili. Panay kasinungalingan lang ang ginagawa
Sa palagay ko lang, hindi na masyadong magtatagal sa puwesto itomg si Pandak. Masyadong mabigat na ang pinapasan ng gobyerno. Kaliwa at kanan ang dating ng problema. Hindi na tuloy malaman kung alin ang uunahin. Akalain mo bang inuna pa ang sex education kaysa pagpapagawa ng classrooms at pagbili ng mga aklat. Malapit na, ilang bulate na lang ang hindi nakakapirma.
Ingat lang kayo diyan sa Pinas. Magdadamay ng marami si Pandak at kanyaang alipores sa kanilang pagbaksak. Ang ganyang klaseng mga tao ay may pagka-bengatibo. Alam ng lahat, lalong lalo na si FDR, na ang 1B ay hindi sapat para masugpo ang NPA. Pero itong si Defensor, Palparan, at Cabuay ay iba ang paniwala, at sa loob lang dalawang taon! Super! Sa isang bagay lang magagamit ang 1B na epektibo- covert military executions and assinations. Iyong tipong mercinaries, “if you are caught, the government has no knowlege of your existence” Actually, nangyayari na ito sa mga militante. Ingat lang kayo diyan, baka kayo ma-collateral! You have a local version of Heinrich Mueller in your midst.
Maniwala kayong mas pabor ang Diyos kay Bansot e No. 1 bugaw siya! Sinabi na nga ng Japan na hindi na puede ang Japayuki, pinagpipilitan pang magpadala dito ng mga binatilyo at dalaginding na isinasabak sa mga bars and clubs sa Hapon na karamihan ay under control ng mga putol (Yakuza) bilang mga hostess (no host kasi sinusuotan ng damit babae iyong mga binatilyo) disguised as entertainers!
Read the report of a Coalition of NGOs tungkol sa ginagawa sa mga pilipina sa South Korea na ginagawa din sa Japan kundi pa natauhan ang mga opisyal dito na pahintuin na ang pagpapadala ng mga Japayuki dito na isang human trafficking!
May nagsabi na binibigyan naman daw sa POEA ang mga ito. E bakit nagbabantay ba sa mga pinagtratrabahuhan ng mga ito ang mga tauhan ng DoLE? At saka iyong mga bata kapag tinakot hindi nagsusumbong ang mga iyan lalo na kung bibigyan ng malaking pabuya!
Minsan nang magpunta ako sa isang lugar dito na tinatawag na Kinshicho na maraming mga bars at clubs na ang mga hostess ay mga pilipino dahil may Philippine Store doon na suki ako, nakakita ako ng isang dalaginding na may kasamang matandang hapon. Susmarya, ang asim nang mukha at hirap na hirap lumakad. Naisip ko tuloy na baka nasira ang pagka-birhen dahil mukhang kagagaling sa isang hotel! Ganyan ang nangyayari sa mga ipinapadala nilang mga batang iyan. Pagdating ng majority age, beterana nang tatsing, at wala nang hiya!
Kaya anong sinasabi nitong banal siya. Itong si Sto. Tomas, dapat magsisisi din ang taong iyan kasi kasabwat siya ni Mama-san Bansot sa pinaggagawa nilang pagbubugaw sa mga batang pinoy sa Japan at Korea! Maski nga sa China, ibinubugaw na rin ang mga pinay!
Ang masagwa pati lalaking bata ginagawang mga bakla! Ang labas ng Pilipinas ngayon Sodom ang Gomorrah! Naglipana ang mga puta at bakla, wannabe at beterano’t beterana! :-
“Manang” Yuko, na-high blood ka na naman…wala tayong magagawa dahil ang pinaka-malaki ngang “source of dollar reserve” ng ating bansa ay ang mga OFWs. Kaya nga kahit maging “tagapag-bigay ng aliw”(entertainer nga daw eh), “tagapag-bigay ng proteksyon” (security nga daw yung mga mercs), pero malaki ang “quota” sa bilang ng kinakailangang ipadala sa labas ng ating bansa…eh di APRUB agad kay GLORIA at sa kanyang “economic teams”. Mabalik tayo sa isyu ng pagbisita ni GLORIA at ng kanyang mga “alipores” sa Vatican. Nahagip ng camera ng telebisyon, kasama pala yung “orihinal na lukaret” sa ating “mundo-politika” sa Pilipinas. Walang iba kundi si Miriam “Kleng-kleng” Defensor-Santiago. Kabuntot siya ni GMA (GanidMandarayangArroyo), hindi kaya sumakit ang ulo ni Pope Benedict XVI pagkatapos nyang makasalamuha at makausap ang grupong ito? Baka isipin niya, lahat ng mga pilipino ay may “tililing”. Kung magiging tapat lamang sa Santo Papa ang mga alagad nya na “nagmamanman” diyan sa Pilipinas, at i-report sa kaniya ang tungkol sa mga “press realeases” ng pangkat “KOMIKERO” na binabanggit natin, tulad ng “pagsang-ayon daw nya na dapat na ngang makipagsundo ang sibahang katolika sa pamahalaan ni GMA(GanidMagnanakaw na Arroyo)”, palagay ko ay maging si Papa Benedicto ay iisiping “me problema sa pag-iisip” ang mga taong iyan. Kawawang Juan dela Cruz, kung bakit kasi nagluklok ng “bulok” na pangulo, ayan nakakarma tuloy TAYONG LAHAT.
Nope, wala akong high blood, Spartain! Under control ang blood pressure ko. Ganyan lang akong magsalita! 🙂 With feeling baga para maramdaman ang sinasabi ko at ibinubulgar kong mga anomalya lalo na ang tungkol iyong may connection sa mga ipinaglalaban ko at ng mga kasama ko sa coalition namin para sa mga pilipino dito!
Kaya sa totoo lang mas gusto kong magsalita ng wikang hapon dahil nagiging mabining-mabini talaga ako pag hapon ang kausap ko! Mahinhin pala at hindi parang palakang katulad ni Bansot! Hindi nga makapaniwala iyong mga kaibigan kong mga pulis ng Tokyo nang makita nila akong bumabanat sa mga rally at street demonstration namin!
Buti na lang kamo, iginagalang ang karapatan ng mga mamamayan dito na mag-assemble to state their gripes against any corrupt government! Kundi baka ang labas namin katulad noong mga nagra-rally sa Pilipinas na pinupukpok ng mga pulis! Pulis ba totoo ang mga hoodlum na iyan? Tanong lang!
Oops, no offense intended, Spartan. Mispelled ang pangalan mo sa itaas. Slip of the finger! Nahawa na yata ang isang daliri ko kay Arroyo at sumobra ang litra na tinipa sa keyboard. Gosh, buti letra lang! Kundi puputulin ko ang kamay ko!
Sabi nga sa Bible:
“And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.”(Matt. 5: 30)
” Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.” (Matt. 18: 8)
“And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched” (Mark 9: 43)
Gusto ko iyan a—GanidMandarayangArroyo!!!
sharing you an unpdate of Scotland and England rivalry ….
Stop this Scotland v England nonsense
By Alan Cochrane
What’s happening to the British? Or, more accurately, what’s happening to the English and the Scots? A Martian might well be justified in asking those questions, given the current level of antagonism, not to mention hysteria, being generated between the two nations that forged the most successful Union of former deadly enemies that the world has seen.
Together, England and Scotland, with a bit of help from the Welsh and Irish, painted two-thirds of the globe pink. But now apparently serious politicians and normally cerebral newspaper columnists are questioning the future of this hugely triumphant partnership. And over what? A bloody football tournament!
This whole thing is about football, or is at least a reaction to a bundle of other irritants on to which has been added the lighter fuel of the realisation that most Scots are not supporting England in Germany. Stupid politicians trumpeting their nationalist credentials have fanned, instead of damping down, the conflagration.
A YouGov survey in this newspaper on Saturday showed that a majority of the English – many of whom, I am sure, previously thought the Barnett Formula was a recipe for baby milk or something to do with motor racing – now demand “their” money back, on the basis that public spending per capita north of the border is much higher than in England.
However, I’ll tell you this: for every Englishman who says he’s subsidising me and mine I’ll find five Scots who will ask – as did the correspondent from Shetland in yesterday’s letters column – what you lot did with all “our” North Sea oil revenue.
The trouble does not end there. One ex-Tory Cabinet minister, Michael Portillo, opines that it really is time for the better future of both countries for Scotland to go its separate way from England. Another, Michael Forsyth, says that his fellow Scots are testing English tolerance to breaking point – adding, almost in an aside, that the “anyone but England” attitude of Scots during the World Cup is offensive to the English.
But surely that has always been the case. Scottish football fans have never supported the English team, just as Rangers fans don’t back Celtic and those at White Hart Lane cheer on Arsenal’s opponents.
This time round, however, the English have sat up and taken notice and, added to all their other gripes about their supposedly ungrateful northern neighbours, they haven’t liked what they see.
For a start, there has been a growing realisation among the English that devolution for Scotland has not been to their best advantage. They have seen public spending mushroom in Scotland and policy options regarded as too expensive for England, such as free personal care for the elderly, introduced by a spendthrift Scottish government.
They have also become aware of the fact there are so many Scots in what they regard as “their” government. It has been difficult not to notice this, given that so many broad Scots brogues usher in their days on the Today programme, whether it be Gordon Brown, John Reid, Alistair Darling, Douglas Alexander or Des Browne.
Adding insult to perceived injury is the West Lothian Question – of which until recently most Englishmen were only dimly aware – which sees Scottish ministers with Scottish constituencies wielding a power over the lives of English men and women that they cannot exercise over their compatriots.
Then there is the question of the next British prime minister, again, in the shape of the Chancellor, virtually certain to be a Scot.
And just as that heady mixture was simmering nicely, along comes the World Cup and Mr Brown decides to add to his call for a Union flag in every garden and further cement his British credentials by declaring that he will be supporting England.
He didn’t stop there, either. He said his favourite goal was by Paul Gascoigne for England against Scotland in Euro 96.
Not surprisingly, this caused a rush of blood to the head north of the border. Jack McConnell, Scotland’s First Minister, who’s never been close to the Great Broon, said he’d be backing England’s opponents and suddenly the balloon went up.
Alex Salmond, the Scottish National Party leader, said the same and also claimed that Mr Brown has “sold his Scottish soul” in an effort to endear himself to the English.
There followed a welter of recrimination on both sides of the border, culminating in the reprehensible assaults, in Edinburgh and Aberdeen, on a seven-year-old child and a disabled man for the “crime” of wearing England football shirts.
These were truly dreadful incidents – which was brought home to me by the fact that the park in which the boy was attacked is the same park in which my daughters play.
There were statements of outrage and shame in both the Edinburgh and London parliaments and while Scotland’s disgrace was international – my English neighbour read about it in Indian newspapers while in Delhi on business – does anyone really think that this violence is typical of the attitude of Scots towards the English any more than drunks chucking chairs and bottles around in Stuttgart are “normal” Englishmen?
As an example of how rare are these attacks, I offer the fact that there has been a large white van flying a St George’s Cross sitting outside that park where the boy was attacked for more than a week and not a scratch put on it.
It is football, not racism, that is at the root of this problem – football, which the former Liverpool manager Bill Shankly said was more important than life or death.
Even with one million Scots living in England and the English now making up nearly 10 per cent of Scotland’s population, there will inevitably be niggles between the best of neighbours, the West Lothian Question and the Barnett Formula being but two.
But, please, can we wait until after the World Cup and everyone has calmed down before we look at them? At least then we might get a sensible solution.

“Manang” Yuko :-D…Hope you can share some photos of your “activities” there in Tokyo. Saw the pictures of our kababayans who “warmly greeted” GMA(GanidMandarambongArroyo) in Italy, though they seem few in numbers, nevertheless…their voices hopefully would have been so loud, that even Pope Benedict XVI could have heard what their “sentiments” are. Well, another day have passed on me here on this small island in the middle of the Pacific…hopefully, I wonder what “entertaining” and “silly” news about Gloria and her “groupies” “field trip” to Europe would I watch again in the TFC tonight. Wish ko lang sana pagtulog natin lahat tonight, magigising tayo bukas na ang storya tungkol kay Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo ay isa lamang palang “masamang panaginip”. 😛
Nasa arkibo din ang demo namin, Spartan. Check mo ang archives nila.
May bagong Papal Nuncio sa Pilipinas, si Bunyeta! Ang ang parang deputy ngayon ng Papa si GanidMandarayangAlanhiya! Aba e, parang sinabing, “Archbisphop Cruz, baba ka na!” imbes na iyong pare ang magsabing, “Hoy, Tekwat na Bansot, baba ka na!”
Golly, usurper nga! Pati Papa inaagawan na ng posisyon! Kung ako ay isang Katoliko, susulatan ko ang Papa na i-excommunicate si Bansot! Sa isang banda, pasalamat din ako hindi ako katoliko kasi magque-guestion ako kung bakit pinapagamit ang simbahan para sa mga kabulastugan ng burot na magnanakaw na iyan.
Kaya kasama si Brain Damage para kung sumpungin si Bansot, masasabi niya, “Don’t worry, dalawa na tayong papasok sa Mandakuyong!” :-)))))))))
Nelbar:
Between the English and the Scottish, mas gusto ko ang mga Scots kasi magaganda ang mga mukha nila. Hindi ko lang gusto ang punto nila!
But if I were you, I will not meddle in their fight dahil para sa akin ay parang laban iyan ng mga Ilocano at ng mga Bisaya! Mas kamukha sila ng mga Irish sa tingin ko kasi magkamukha ang lenguahe nila pati punto na iba sa salita ng mga English sa London!
Mother ko may lahing British, taga Lancashire, England, kasama ng mga sumakop sa Pilipinas noong 1762-64. I got the chance to meet two distant relatives in Leeds as a matter of fact, no guni-guni like the tales about some ponga claiming kinship with a Catholic saint from Spain na wala namang asawa!
Ate Yuko,
Eto ang ipagdasal mo ng mabuti na huwag sanang mangyari sa Japan na kumakanlong sayo ngayon. Pabayaan mo na kaming mga Filipino aming bayan! Huwag ka ng makisali, lalo lang gumugulo.
Japan brings warship home amid North Korea missile launch
Agence France-Presse
Last updated 02:48pm (Mla time) 06/29/2006
TOKYO — Japan said Thursday it was bringing home an Aegis-equipped destroyer from US-led exercises off Hawaii, in apparent preparation for a possible North Korean missile launch.
The Kirishima is one of four Japanese ships equipped with Aegis, a US system designed to intercept missiles. One is temporarily out of service and the other two are reportedly deployed in waters facing North Korea.
“The Kirishima Aegis-equipped warship will be replaced by three other defense ships in the naval training,” a Defense Agency spokesman said.
He declined to elaborate on the reasons, but Kyodo News and Jiji Press, citing unnamed officials, said the abrupt decision was due to the need to keep an eye on North Korea.
US and Asian officials have said North Korea is preparing to launch a long-range Taepodong-2 missile, capable of reaching Japan, Alaska or possibly Hawaii.
The test moves come amid a stalemate in negotiations on ending North Korea’s nuclear program.
Japan had sent the Kirishima to Pearl Harbor to take part in the Rim of Pacific Exercise, considered the world’s largest international sea drills, which involve eight nations every two years.
Rodong Sinmun, the newspaper of North Korea’s ruling communist party, on Monday denounced the US-led exercises as “provocative” and said they were aimed at Pyongyang.
North Korea in 1998 fired a Taepodong-1 missile over Japan into the Pacific, prompting Tokyo and Washington to step up cooperation to build missile defenses.
North Korea agreed last year in general terms to give up its nuclear program in exchange for aid and security guarantees.
But six-nation talks involving the US and North Korea have been at a standstill since November, with Pyongyang protesting US financial sanctions imposed over the regime’s alleged money laundering and counterfeiting.
Defense Agency Director-General Fukushiro Nukaga said last week that Japanese ships and planes will “do their utmost” to collect information about a potential North Korean missile launch.
Tulad ng walang kamatayan “practice what you preach” ganyan sana ang gawin ng ibang dating pinoy kuno na galit sa mga pakialamero pero sila rin naman ang number one ang gumagawa nito!
Pwede ba magulo na nga kami sa Pilipinas tapos makikisawsaw pa kayo, Please lang wag n kayong makigulo, tulungan na lang nyo kaming magdasal na bumuti ang bayan namin ok?
Ronnie Mabini…..isa kang DPA ni black magic woman. Pinoy ka ba? Mukhang habla espanol ka rin eh. Alis dyan!!!
May tumawag sa aking Ate Yuko na pilipino, Susmarya, ang tanda-tanda naman ng itsura. Nang tanungin ko ang edad e ayaw ibigay.
Naalala ko tuloy iyong isang kapatid kong matanda na nagpapabata pero halata namang matanda at puro peleges na ang mukha! Golly, ginawang 1950 ang year of birth niya e ang linaw ng passport niya na 1938 siya ipinanganak! Nakukunsumi sa Amerika kaya lalong tumanda ang mukha!
Dito naman mas gusto nilang sabihin ngayon ang edad nila tapos ang mga mukha mas bata dahil ang dami namang kung ano’t anong creme ang ipinapahid sa mukha na pambabata.
May nakita akong ale, 96 years old na nagsasayaw pa ng hula! Sabi ko tuloy sa Mother ko, maghula-hula din siya para maalis ang sakit ng mga tuhod niya. Binigyan ko siya ng tali sa tuhod niya para hindi sumakit.
Ang daming gadgets ngayon dito para sa mga matanda gaya noong shopping bag na may gulong at upuan para kung mapagod maglakad ang matatanda, makakaupo! At saka ang daming produktong may collagen na siya daw na nakakapigil sa pagtanda.
At saka iba talaga kung pantay-pantay ang mga tao. Walang naghihilahan ng paa hindi katulad ng mga akala mo sila lang ang banal at may karapatang magbigay ng opinyon. Pwe! Alis dyan!
Mga salbahe kayo..bakit nyo naman pinatatalsik si Mang Ronnie nagbibigay din naman siya ng kanyang opinion tulad ninyo. Hindi naman yata tama na kayo kayo lang ng nagbolbolsitan. Nasa madlang Pinoy ang pagbabago..hindi pweding lahat na lang ng maupo sa Malacanan ay patalsikin. Pauutanging nyo ba ang mga pamilya ng mga OFW kung babawalan nyo silang mag padala ng pinaghirapan nila sa ‘pinas..
Mga Ate & Kuya;
Ano b naman kayo, nagpapalitan lang tayo ng mga kuro-kuro, humihingi ako ng paumanhin at pang-unawa mula sa inyo wala akong intensyon insultuhin or saktan ang damdamin nyo.
Mas makakabuti na alam nyo rin ang pulso ng mga hindi sumasang-ayon sa inyo, sana lang malawak ang isipan at puso nyo na hindi lahat ng sumasang-ayon sa inyo ay DPA na ni GMA, pakialam ko b sa mga alagad ni GMA!
Tanong ko naman sa iyo, Bentong, bakit problema ba ng ibang bansa na akuhin ang kasalanan ng mga nagpapalakad ng pamahalaan ng Pilipinas na hindi mabigyan ng magandang kinabukasan ang mga pilipino sa sarili nilang bayan?
Bakit hindi mo ipaglaban ang karapatan ng mga pilipinong makapanatili sila sa bansa nila nang hindi sila malayo sa mga mahal nila sa buhay, at makapagtrabaho sa sarili nilang bansa ng marangal at hindi iyong mukha silang busabos na ginagawa ang mga trabahong mahirap, marumi at mapanganib na ayaw gawin ng mga katutubo ng mga bansang dinarayo nila na akala mo invasion?!
Hindi sapat na dahilan na dahil sa maaapi at mabubulok sila sa bansa nila at mamamatay ng dilat ang mata kung hindi sila makikipagsapalaran sa ibang bansa kahit na ilegal at sa masamang paraan!
Iba iyong umaalis ng bansa ng kusangloob nila at hindi pinakikialaman ang mga sasahurin nila kesa doon sa mismong gobyerno ang tumatayong parang recruiter and kumikikil ng pagpapalabas sa kanila. Human trafficking ang tawag diyan!
Sapilitang pinagbabayad ng kung anong kabulastugang OWWA fee, etc. sa airport? At kasabwat ang mga tauhan ng gobyerno ng mga malakas na tumagang mga recruiter? Ang linaw na human trafficking iyan!
Anong maganda sa pagtawag ng mga OFW na “No. 1 Export Commodity of the Philippine government” under Mrs. Pidal? Ang sagwa! Sabi pa noong isa pang bugaw na Congressman, “This deployment of Philippine workers is the Philippines no. 1 Industry!” Tangna, ano ang ginanda niyan? Puede ba?
Doon sa pilosopong tanong mo Bentong kung papautangin namin ang mga hindi aalis ng bansa, bakit namin gagawin iyan? Trabaho mong ipaglaban ang karapatan nilang makapagtrabaho ng mahusay sa bansa nila para hindi sila magutom. Problema ng gobyerno nilang bigyan sila ng mga magandang trabaho na hindi iyong ipinagtutulakan silang umalis ng bansa habang inaaya ang mga taga ibang bansa na matatanda na doon sa Pilipinas magretiro para iyong mga pension ng mga ito ay mapakinabang ng mga tamad na walang utak para mag-isip kung anong trabaho ang puede nilang ibigay sa mga kababayan nila.
Human trafficking, tama na! Mga bugaw, PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
Hello folks,
Kumusta kayo? Umuwi na ba si bansot? Swerte niya dahil kung nanalo ang Spain, si King Juan Carlos baka i-postpone iyong dinner nila! Heheh.
By the way, ano ba ang ginawa ni Bansot as Santiago de Compostela?
Anyway, here’s what I gathered from Bansot’s website:
From:
http://kgma.7.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=218
Hey…
I just wanted to send you this link to an online petition on Petition Spot, Support President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/supportgma
“Let’s unite now and lift up the country instead of bringing it down”
Hi Ellen, Yuko, Schumey, friends and foes,
Just want to tell Schumey that I was very happy I was – indeed some Pinoys staged a rally in Rome, or was it in the Vatican, within spitting distance from Aroyo. That was excellent. Would be good if Pinoys in Spain could replicate it. I wonder how many Pinoy domestic helpers Gloria can sell to Spain… Hasn’t she earmarked 100,000 human cattle for traficking towards Spain?
If the media in Spain learn about Gloria’s plan to sell or dumb 100,000 OFWs to Spain, Spanish citizenry themselves might stage a revolt and call for her ouster from Spanish soil… There’s just no room anymore in Spain for immigrant labor.
They already have a problem with their North African immigrants as well as unemployed immigrants from Germany, Britain, South America and even Australia looking for a life of farniente in Spain but ending up being cared for by the Spanish state coz there’s not enough employment for all immigrants.
Unfortunately, I don’t know any Pinoy in Spain I could get news from.
Also, thanks, Yuko for the links. Btw, the telephone number they have there in the link is similar to Joma Sison’s NDFP hqs number in Amsterdam. But it really doesn’t matter. Brave of the Pinoys in Italy to have done that.
Were the pics published in Philippine newspapers or shown in RP media at all?
oops, Just want to tell Schumey that I was very happy I was WRONG!
ooops again….should read:
“If the media in Spain learn about Gloria’s plan to sell or DUMP 100,000 OFWs to Spain,…”
Ateng Ana,
I hope you don’t mind, kung sakali nga po na pagpalain kayo ng nasa ITAAS at napatalsik nyo si GMA, ano naman po ba ang alternatibo na pwedeng nyong isuhestiyon sa papalit na lider para hindi na madagdagan ang mga OFW’s na nagpapa-alila sa ibang bansa?
Sana huwag kayong magsawa sa paulit-ulit sa pakikibaka kahit mismong MANOK nyo pa ang pumalit na lider. Kumbaga, walang kaibigan, walang kumpara at kamag-anak, kung sa ikabubuti ba ng bayan bakit hindi?
Kung talaga pong kumbinsido kayo na napakasamang tao ni GMA, nirerespeto ko po yun. Bahala na lang ang Panginoon Diyos, sana dumating ang araw na magkasundo-sundo na rin ang mga Filipino 🙂
Naku..pati ako nataray na…simpleng tao lang ako. obligasyon ko muna sa pamilya bago yung iba..bakit ko gagawin ang trabaho ng mga mambabatas. Kaya si President Arroyo napipilitang kumilos dahil imbes na gampanan ng nasa kongreso ang trabaho iba ang inaatupag. Kung walang dayuhan na magnenegosyo o mangangalakal sa Pinas dahil sa bangayan ng mga walang magawa. Ang pagtagumpay ng Pinas ay nasa kamay ng sangbayanan..kailangan mag tulong tulong sa pag usad ng ekonomiya..nasasabotahe dahil matatalinong nilalang na na nanlilinlang. Ako
Anna:
I know. BBC featured this problem about the North American slipping into EU through Spain, and the Spaniards have made arrangement to send them back via Morocco. Nakakaawa rin kasi marami sa kanila naloko ng mga recruiter. Pinagbili ang mga kaunting ari-arian para makapunta sa Europe gawa nang wala naman na silang nakukuha sa mga lupa nila dahil sa tigang ang lupa.
Pero alam mo naman si Bansot, all big talks, wala namang sinabi. Ang I doubt if she could convince the Italians to pardon the 80,000 overstaying Filipinos there. Kaya siguro iyong Premier nila nanood muna ng World Cup para alam niya ang sasabihin niya kay Tsunano.
Naglalamyerda sa Espana kasi sa palagay ko hindi naman state visit ang punta niya doon kundi kinumbida niya ang sarili niya. Ang kapal din ano? Ang laking pera ng bayan ang winawaldas!
Gayan ang ginawa niya dito sa Japan noon, 5 times lamyerda and finally, nainis na rin ang Hapon pinagbigyan para hindi na bumalik dito. Kaya ang pinapupunta na lang dito iyong mga sipsip gaya ni De Venecia at nina Lagman, et al. Pero palagay all big talks itong mga ungas na ito 90 percent wala namang sinabi kasi ang mga grants naman ay ibibigay kung mapo-prove na talagang importante. Ang kaso mo, pagdating sa kawalanghiyaan at pandaraya diyan magagaling ang mga ungas! Kaya dapat sa ating mga ordinary citizen ang masugid na magmanman at sabihan ang mga opisyal namin dito na huwag silang paloloko! Katakot-takot na padding ng bills iyan pag nagkataon.
Bentong,
Anong pinagsasabi na ginagampanan ni Bansot ang tungkulin niya. Ang ginagawa niya ay dinidiktahan niya ang lahat na sumunod sa kaniya para kung magnakaw man siya ay walang kikibo! At saka wala siyang karapatan na pakialaman ang Congreso, Senado at Hukuman dahil hindi niya teritoryo iyan. Unang-una, patunayan niya munang hindi siya nandaya at nagnakaw ng boto para umarte siyang tunay na pangulo. Katarantaduhan ang ginagawa ng taong iyan. Estupida naman! Puede ba! Magkano ba ang bayad sa inyo ng ungas na iyan para manggulo dito?
ATE YUKO,
Please lang, bakit masyado kang pikon? Ganito n lang para maiwasan ang pag-init ng ulo mo sa amin, ikunsidera mo n lang na isa kaming naliligaw na tupa, malay mo sa patuloy mong pagbibigay ng mga makabuluhan opinion ay marami ang maliwanagan.
Kasi kung kayo-kayo lang mga hard core ang magbobolahan sa isa’t isa walang pupuntahan bakit po kamo kasi parang inuulit-ulit lang nyo ang sinasabi ng bawat isa sa grupo nyo dib? Samantalang kung paliliwanag nyo ang punto nyo baka-sakali marami sa amin ang mahikayat nyo. Ganun lang yun.
Si Ateng Ana, ni minsan hindi napikon sa mga gusto namin sabihin bagkus sinasagot nya sa paraan madali naming maintindihan. Interpreter ka pa naman pero kaming mga payak na pinoy ay hindi mo sikapin maabot ng sa ganun mas maiintindihan mo kami ok?
Yuko,
Ngayon ko lang nalaman na bawal palang magbigay ng opinyon dito. Lahat pala sa iyo ay bayaran..ikaw magkanong ibinayad? Kaya pala kayo kayo lang ang nandito dahil di pwedi ang magbigay opinyon lalo na kung walang pagmumura.. gominasory at kayo na lang ang magbolsyitan dito..napapagaya na tuloy ako. Kaya siguro Yuko ang ngalan mo dahil gusto mo bow lahat sa katarayan mo..di kaba talaga YAKUZA?
ATE YUKO,
Please lang, bakit masyado kang pikon? Ganito n lang para maiwasan ang pag-init ng ulo mo sa amin, ikunsidera mo n lang na isa kaming naliligaw na tupa, malay mo sa patuloy mong pagbibigay ng mga makabuluhan opinion ay marami ang maliwanagan.
Kasi kung kayo-kayo lang mga anti-GMA hard core ang magbobolahan sa isa’t isa walang pupuntahan bakit po kamo kasi parang inuulit-ulit lang nyo ang sinasabi ng bawat isa sa grupo nyo dib? Samantalang kung paliliwanag nyo ang punto nyo baka-sakali marami sa amin ang mahikayat or maliwanagan. Ganun lang yun!
Si Ateng Ana, ni minsan hindi napikon sa mga gusto namin sabihin bagkus sinasagot nya sa paraan madali naming maintindihan. Interpreter ka pa naman pero kaming mga payak na pinoy ay hindi mo sikapin maabot ng sa ganun mas madaling magka-iintindihan ok? Ang mahirap kasi s’yo Ate Yuko, may dictatorial tendencies karin kasi pag di mo nagustuhan ang sinabi iniisip mo or inaakusahan mo agad ng alaga ni GMA, hello? Pano ka nakasiguro na gusto nga namin si GMA, aber?
Ellen, All:
I just wrote a while ago about the Pandak and Bunye starting to act now as if they have been given special designation by the Pope. Now, she wants the Bishop of Caloocan investigated. For what? He was simply practicing his citizen’s duty when he submitted his complaint with the group of Etta Rosales, et al. Anong masama noon?
Malaki na ang tupak ng ungas na ito at komo na-meet iyong papa e akala niya papa na rin siya! Ang tindi!
Puede ba? PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
Apparently, the Boba is hallucinating that her visit to the Vatican was something like a state visit rather than merely as a Catholic member making a trip to the Vatican and getting a special audience with the Pope because she was/is supposed to be the head of a state regardless of whether or not she got her position by committing fraud.
Why should the Pope talk to her about politics in the first place? Usually it is only to give some kind of spiritual blessing especially for a Catholic like her, but nothing I guess about how she runs the government in the Philippines because the Pope is no head of the state, and no longer enjoys the same kind of political power with all kingdoms in Europe pledging allegiance to the Vatican in the Middle Ages.
She must be really crazy to be saying what she does at the moment about the Pope telling her how to run the government and even how to run and control the priests and nuns in the Philippines. It is unbelievable!
On the other hand, she should remember that God cannot be mocked. Although I don’t believe in the infallibility of the Catholic Pope, to Catholics, he represents a holy man, and to drag this man into the mud is unpardonable. Let her thus be warned: “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Gal. 6: 7) In other words, what she does, lying in the name of the Pope, who to the Catholics represents God, can have terrible consequences, even spiritual and temporal punishments, and eternal condemnation.
Everybody who has helped this crook to sit at the palace by the murky river must have been wanting to bang their heads on the wall for helping and spoiling her like an uncontrollable brat! Now is the time for a restitution, I guess.
Anna,
Thanks, I wish France good luck on their match against Brazil. Tough match but I hope them the best. I also understand that different OFW and migrant groups are preparing to come up with a position paper against GMA. There are unconfirmed reports from the international press that many Pinoys enter Italy illegally loaded in trucks. Reports also said some never make it alive as they have to travel long distances in very cramped conditions. I hope these reports are not true.
Yuko, Bansot is not only crazy, she’s paranoid! Her minions will not abandon her at this time. She is the source of their power and wealth. Very few left the “boat” which includes the Hyatt 10 – these people are still with conscience.
Remember there are only four aces in a deck of cards. Not unless the gamblers around her will spare the aces tucked in their sleeves. How many are left until July 24th when she will deliver the unTrue State of the Nation?
It has been proven, Gloria Arroyo is without a doubt an established liar among other things. Surprisingly Gloria lasted this long. There is not much that can be said of Gloria. Everything need to be told about her has already been said more times than we want to repeat. The only thing left to discuss now is how to rid of her and save Philippines from further destruction. Gloria Arroyo is a shameless and the country No.1 embarrasment. Pilipinos shouldn’t let her out of the country. And, imagine our No.1 law enforcer of the land is a liar, cheat and thief. Disgusting!
Hoy Ronnie Mabini for your information kahit ako nasa ibang bansa hindi ako nanggugulo sa Pinas. at mahal na mahal ko Ito!Isa pa kahit ako nasa ibang bansa I’ll never,never to forget to pay my property tax, witholding tax and the e-vatat kahit kakapiranggot ang contribution ko nakakadagdag din ito sa panghuhurakot ni mrs. pidal at syempre pa sa tumatanggap na suhol- kasali ka ba dito? In case kasali ka sa pagtanggap ng suhol pls. naman sabihin mo sa amo mo na si mrs. pidal na sa bulsa naman nya manggaling ang mga suhol nya sayo(if) hindi kay Juan de ka Cruz. Thanks
Florry
Mabuti ka pa, mulat ang iyong mga mata sa katotohanan. Only people whose lifeline depeds on GMA would call us distabilizers. The reason why the administration is so furious at its critics is because, investments won’t come in because of the negative environment we project. Has the administration forgotten that its the so-called “distabilizers” who installed her in power? Kaya siguro sila galit dahil nababawasan ang mga kickback nila sa mga investors na ito. Sige Florry, naway lagi kang maging malakas at bukas ang isip.
Update: Malaya reports 3 UP students abducted by hooded men.
Yan ba ang sinang-ayunang policy ni Pope? The Pope was just being civil with the leprechaun when he met her at the Vatican. The Pope with media around cannot simply slap her out of disgust.
The late Pope John Paul II however is more “showy” during his visit to El Salvador. He did not allow the Archbishop of El Salvador to kiss his hand. He later lambasted the Salvadoran government for its continued repression of the people. He also pointed out how human rights must be respected by the government.
Pasalamat si pandak at wala na si PJP2, baka hindi lang sermon ang abutin niya.
Florry..salamat sa pag sunod sa obligasyon mo sa Inang Bayan. Kung lahat ba naman ay tulad mo..me mararating tayo. Kailangan umpisahan sa oposisyon.Watak watak dahil lahat ay magagaling gusto lahat bida. Salamat na rin sa Bansang Japan dito at hindi pumatol sa tsismis,
“Late Wednesday, however, Japan’s leading debt watchdog Rating and Investment Information Inc. (R&I) revised its outlook on the Philippine government’s foreign currency obligations to “stable” from “negative,” citing recent gains in fiscal reforms.” Tulad mo Florry at balitang ganito ang makapagpapaunlad ng Inang Bayan. >MAGANDANG ARAW SA LAHAT
Schumey:
It is not the critics and/or destabilizers of the crook and her minions that are making foreign investors to shy away from the Philippines. What make them pack up and leave are the unfriendly policies and methods of enforcing those policies plus the rampant graft and corruption in the government.
The Bansot says she can be a better president without her critics but what she wants is freedom to with no obstruction to what she and her husband does in syphoning all that the country has into their Pidal funds.
She is still there despite all the efforts to remove her, and help even from outside, plus the carelessness of her staff who are turning stupid because of lack of sleep, and even fear of being sacked and humiliated that they kind of lose their balance, and for that they commit such folly as what Bunyeta himself inadvertently did when he held two disks in front of the media in anticipation of some expose that Alan Paguia then was about to do. It was supposed to be kind of antidote to the poison that Paguia was rumored to do, but what happened ironically was Bunyeta revealed their own secrets himself! And that for me, dear friend, is Divine Providence.
Now, if even such revelation did not remove the Bansot, it is not because of any divine intervention but the workings of evil men in the Philippine Congress and even in the Supreme Court which is dominated by the Bansot’s and her husband’s friends and kin. We know this to be true and a lot of people are getting hopelessly agitated, but I am not contrary to what some idiots here are trying to do to put into my mouth, for the truth is I try to listen to that Still Small Voice when I post to this and other egroups where I can put in my thoughts on the country of my birth even when I am no longer one of its law abiding citizens, and whatever little I have accomplished in this and other advocacies for Filipinos, I thank God for protecting me and blessing me with the means to accomplish my goals!
Yes, I felt disappointed for example about the failure of the Opposition (they are the opposition because they oppose the Bansot and her authoritarian rule but they are in fact the majority with the majority of Filipinos now supporting them) to bring down the Bansot and her minions, but the development since then has given me hope that this is what God wants—reconcile ALL Filipinos against their true enemy, and strengthen them with firmer resolve to do what is right and true, and learn from their trials and tribulations. Just look at the B&W movement to see the unfolding of a true tomorrow.
I am no fan of Cory Aquino but seeing her and Susan Roces and/or Estrada’s Loi there, I realize that this is what reconciliation is all about, and Dinky Soliman and other memnbers of the Hyatt 10, who gave the Bansot some credibility and unquestionable strength when they were with her, plus the growing number of angry Filipinos in and outside of the Philippines, and people like Ellen I should not forget, just give me enough trust and confidence that we are on the right path, and if we cannot fight the armed battalion of the Bansot now that she has resolved to wipe out all of them who oppose her, why should I worry?
I only have to remember how God must have helped the fickle-minded Filipinos who could not actually make up their minds about removing the US bases in the Philippines in the early 90’s. There were the pros and cons to the presence of US military installations there, but despite the passing of the law versus foreign military in the Philippines, they did not know actually how to tell the more powerful Americans to go home, and those who cried that they would lose their jobs I thought were really pathetic. Then, God made the decision for them. All of a sudden the sleeping giant of a mountain started rumbling and sputing lava and lahar out of its belly, and its ashes covered not only the US bases in Pampanga and Subic but were strayed likewise to even as far as Japan, and it has become one of the Philippines’ world-famous mountains!
I am looking forward to such phenomenon as a matter of fact and see what God has lined up to help those who really want to see a better Philippines, not those who pretend that they are for the betterment of the Philippines by insisting that Filipinos continue to allow themselves to be hoodwinked by a criminally inclined who has no qualms to break the law because she thinks she is above the law!
I have resolved to use strong words in my messages but no profanity as I have decided that before I post a message here I pray first for guidance and input from up above. So, what I say here is no fakery, nor any attempt for personal gains, for I have nothing to gain or lose in fact in participating in this kind of discussion that I feel very strongly for.
It is the reason likewise that I don’t do business in the Philippines although I am into selling Philippine products to Filipinos, Thais, Japanese, etc. in Japan to avoid any of the so-called “conflict of interest.” Like Florry, though, I pay my dues like the property taxes on our properties in the Philippines, etc.
The Bible is very explicit in fact in pointing to us the consequence of doing things beyond what one is supposed to do in accordance with God’s Will and Law, and even the laws of men that are inspired of God. Ellen, in fact, has quoted one about the corrupt being made crazy first before they are destroyed.
BTW, for the benefit of all my good friends in this blog, here are some quotes from the Scriptures that I do find inspiring, kind of a consolation, and encouraging enough to strengthen my resolve to do as God wants me to and to help support and encourage those in the front to not lose hope but have faith in God above that the end of the tyrant is near. These verses in the Bible describes the enemy in detail and you may learn from them even as to how to effectively get rid of her and her minions without any bloodshed:

There are other more, but I’ll leave them in store for the right time to post them here.
Off I go. I have to go with a lawyer to see a Filipino in jail. Will see if I can pitch in during breaks as I am carrying my laptop, a Panasonic CFR3, that is 999g. and has a battery good for 9 hours or more and a wireless adapter.
Before I forget, please pray for the 3 UP student activists. I hope the they will not be sexually molested and killed. I suspect that the culprits are the same group of hoodlums parading as policemen who abducted supporters of Erap to be in this new abduction, too.
God, wala na bang katapusan? Ibang-iba talaga sa mga pulis ng Japan. True, they are human, too, but our policemen here are beholden to the people that they have taken an oath to protect and keep safe not to any fool unlike in the Philippines where the policemen have become the image of terror and oppression, and protector of evil instead of what they are supposed to be! No thanks to the criminal suspect who continues to oversquat at the palace by the murky river, and protected by her fellow crooks.
PATALSIKIN NA, NOW NA!
On the contrary, Japan is not a willing participant in this scheme to hoodwink the Filipinos and even the Japanese. Japan knows the score, that is a fact, but though the Japanese do not speak English, they are wise, wiser that what a mediocre fool thinks he/she has scored with.
Apparently, there are terms and conditions to be met in the grants promised De Venecia as a matter of fact. What those in the agency in charge of the ODA need are feedbacks especially on the padded bills and the daya schemes the Bansot is up to make. So, Schumey, all, iyong mga sulat ninyo handa ninyo na.
One thing good about Japan is the voices of the people definitely are not ignored and they prevail versus some goody-goody pretenses of concern for the people by those who post here pretending to be the voice of the majority, but are in fact on the payroll of the propaganda agency of the criminally inclined where the big bulk of these grants are likely to go according to my source.
I like this song from our hymn book: “Fear not though the enemy deride; Courage for the Lord is on our side. We will heed not what the wicked may say, for the Lord alone we will obey!” This, definitely, I abide by, not some admonition by a paid Internet Brigade.
ystakei, nahahalata ko (sensya na mahina kasi ako makiramdam ng mga taong mapagbalatkayo)…itong karakter na si Ronnie Mabini at Bentong ay mukahang iisang tao lamang…kasi lahat halos ng “entry” niya dito sa forum ay laging magkasunod lang….LOL…LOL…me sayad din ang SOB…kinakausap ang sarili…”multiple personality” ang tama…o nagtitipid ang mga “puta*#!^-pakawala” ni GLORIA, imbes kumuha ng maraming bayaran na magtiklada ng kanilang computer…pinag-aari na lamang na isang tao ang magbigay ng “nilalaman” (o walang laman) ng kaniyang utak. Pang-3 stooges talaga ang mga GUNGGONG na ito. 😛
Spartan,
Siguro nakatingin ka sa salamin sinusulat mo lang ang nakikita mo. Tama ka ng sabihin mong Si Ronnie Mabini at Bentong ay iisang LAHI, pareho kaming Filipino. Lalo naman hindi ako pakawala ni President Arroyo. Naligaw lang ako dito para makita kung anong meron. Ngayon alam ko na kung ano..WALA, nalaman ko rin na bawal bumatikos sa mga haka-haka at kuro kuro dito. Nalaman ko rin kung bakit kayo kayo lang ang naglolokohan at nagpapalitan ng bullshit. Makatalsik na nga at exclusive blog pala “ito Pang-3 stooges talaga at pang GUNGGONG” ENJOY NA LANG KAYO SA PAGLOLOKOHAN. If I need a good laugh or I need a joke line..silip na lang ako.
Spartan:
Why should I be bothered by what the paid “destabilizers” are told to do in this blog and other egroups for Filipinos say. I know me, and I know what I am talking about. Otherwise, I don’t pretend to be all knowing like the Bansot who now wants to substitute for the Pope!!! 🙂
Bakit ako makikinig doon sa nagpre-pretend na alam na alam niya ang Japan e ako mismo ay hapon na mas nakakaalam ng pasikot-sikot ng bansa ko. Iyong ngang Mr. ko na ipinanganak at lumaki sa Japan sa akin nagtatanong e!
Tama ka, Brod, iisa lang ang mga iyan–bayaran ni Bansot!
Forgot to say, matira ang matibay!
Tama ka rin, Spartan, doon sa puntos mo na kunyari laban kay Bansot itong mga Internet Brigade pero kung bumanat halata mong bayaran. On the other hand, nakokonsensiya rin kahit kaunti siguro kaya parang split personality ang dating!
Ang tactic ng mga ito ay manggulo lang at ipalabas na iyong galit kay Bansot ay mga walang pinag-aralan. OK, siya nga may DPhil daw sa UP pero kung kumilos naman daig pa iyong mga walang degree na nagkakalkal ng basura sa Payatas!
But what’s in a degree. May diploma ka nga kamote naman ang utak mo, at hindi mo ginagamit ang pinag-aralan mo sa kabutihan, wala rin, di ba?
FYI, Co-member ko si Clinton sa Oxford University Society, pati si Maggie Thatcher. So what? Iyan ay totoo, hindi guni-guni! 😛
Ate Yuko,
Lakas rin ng loob mong sabihin na member ka ng Oxford University Society, bakit hanggang ngayon wala ka parin PEACE OF MIND? Lahat pinoproblema mo, lahat ng komokontra s’yo bayaran ni GMA!
Wag na kayong magtaka kung bakit hindi kayo dumarami at hindi kayo makausad sa kinalalagyan nyo kasi punong-puno ng inggit ang puso nyo! Magsikap kayo ng umasenso kayo noh!
Bentong…basahin mo ulit komento ko…hindi ko sinulat na si “Ronnie Lakambini, este Mabuni,,,ay ano ba yan…Mabini pala at Bentong ay iisang lahi”…and sinulat ko ay “iisang tao”. Basahin mo ulit ha. And Ronnie Mabuni…sabi mo “magsikap kami at nang umasenso”, me pagkatanga ka rin pala eh, halos lahat kami na nagbibigay ng opinyon dito ay wala diyan sa Pilipinas, kapag binuksan mo lang ang “nadidiliman mong paningin”, kami sampu ng aming “immediate families” ay kumakain ng maayos, napag-aaral ang mga anak namin sa magandang paaralan, at me naiimpok kahit papano…pero bakit kami “nagpupuyos sa galit” sa “BULOK na SISTEMA” ng ating mga namumuno sa pamahalaan? Kasi, iniisip pa rin namin ang paghihirap na dinadama ng aming mga malapit at malayong kamag-anak, mga kaibigan, at kababayan. This site serves as our “outlet” to exchange our “critcal” views and opinions about the SHENANIGANS of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and her “government”. Now, dun sa mga taong ang gusto ay “idolohin”, “purihin”, at “mahalin” and PANDAK na ubod ng WALANGHIYA, punta ka dun sa mga “sites” na ikinalat ng mga “alipores” niya sa “internet”, para huwag ka “masaktan” sa mga “nababasa” mo, maliwanag na ba RoBen (Ronnie at Bentong)? Kapag hindi pa, subukan mong “mag-apply” ng trabaho kay Manny Pacquiao, palit mo ulo dun sa “speed bag” niya, nang maalog-alog naman ang utak mo.:-P
By the way Bentong, ikaw din ba yun Bentong na napapanuod ko sa TFC? Anak ka ng teteng…ikaw ba yun? Ok raket mo sa Wowowee ha, taga-abot ka ng “kornik”. LOL…LOL…LOL. Ganun talaga kami dito, sumasaya kapag “NABUBWISIT” namin ang mga ALIPORES ni PANDAK…Siya sige, pahinga muna ko, sakit na tiyan ko katatawa, pangalan mo palang..LOL…LOL…Bentong….LOL….LOL… 😛
Spartan;
Ikaw narin ang nagsabi na “nagpupuyos ka sa galit” ibig sabihin INIS-TALO ka! Nasobrahan na kayo ng galit pero kulang naman ng talino kaya lahat iniisip nyo parehong tao pag di umayon sa gusto nyo!
Sabihin mo ang lahat ng klase ng panlalait sa akin okey lang yun hindi naman big deal yan. Pero ang sabihin mo isang tao kami ni Bentong, imposibleng mangyari kasi naman po hindi lang ikaw ang wala sa Pilipinas.. LOL..:) kami rin po baka mas masarap p ang kinakain namin at mas malaki pa kinikita ko syo noh!
Never po kaming nasasaktan sa mga banat nyo kay GMA, in fact, natatawa lang na lang sa mga utak-talangkang pinoy na “paranoid” na pagdating kay GMA! Kung ganyan klase lang naman ng uri ng paninira nyo kay GMA para sa pagTATALSIK at para sa pagbabago, aba’y mag-isip-isip kayo. Sinisigurado ko walang matinong pinoy na sasama sa maruming uri ng pulitika na ginagawa nyo. Susmaryosep, patnubayan nawa kayo ng Diyos, sampu ng pamilya mo para sa matinong pakikibaka!!!!
ATE YUKO & SPARTAN;
Kung gusto nyo dumami or madagdagan ang hanay nyo para mapaTALSIK si GMA, pairalin nyo ang edukasyon anong meron kayo. Masahol pa kayo sa mga taga-Payatas at mga taong lumaki sa magulong lansangan! Ipaliwanag nyo punto por punto ang ayaw nyo sa gobyerno ni GMA, kung bakit sobra ang pagkasuklam nyo kay GMA. Hindi yun para kayong mga sirang plaka ang mga sinasabi, paulit-ulit na lang! Malay nyo meron kayong mahikayat at maliwanagan sa mga bibisita sa blog ni Ate Ellen. Iwasan nyo rin mamersonal, mga laki lang sa kanto at walang pinag-aralan ang gumagawa nyan. Ano p b ang silbi ng nagtapos kayo sa kilalang eskwelahan kung ganyan ang mga asal nyo!
sFARTan,
Sad to say hindi lang mahina ang pakiramdam mo, pati sa utak me tama na rin. Kababayan ko yung Bentong sa Wowowie na tahimik na nag tatrabaho at pasensiya na at mahirap lang siya. Tama ka ng sabihing masakit na ang tiyan mo dahil puro hangin na iyan galing sa ulo mo. Mahirap din naman pala ang sobrang talino dahil dito lang ang bagsak ninyo. Maraming matatalinong sira ulo. PA-ULIT ULIT nyong sinasabi na BAYARAN, malamang bayaran kayo. Tira kayo ng tira kay President Arroyo, damay pati masa sa Inang Bayan ko. Dapat siguro mag lagay na lang kayo ng disclaimer na bawal ang matino dito.
I mean, kung bawal ang batikos kung hindi sangayon sa bloggers dito. Kala ko ba free to express tayo..yun pala free na malapastangan at ma-mura hindi panig sa kalokohan.
Spartan:
Tuwang-tuwa ako sa iyo! Ang tinik ng mga sinabi mo! Witty ka talaga! Iyan ang matalino!
Anyway, nakuha ko na ang lobbyist group ni Pandak na mismong mga taga-embassy ay nagagalit dahil ang akala mo sila na ang may-ari ng Philippine Embassy at inaalisan na ng karapatan ang mga nagsunog ng mga kilay para makapagtrabaho sa diplomatic missions ng bansa kung saan-saan. Daig pa ang martial law ni Marcos sa totoo lang! At least, si Marcos matalino. Itong si Bansot, boba naman akala mo kung sino namang genius!
Gosh, nagsalita dito noon ang sabi, “Japan is aging. It needs to be rejuvenated with young Filipino blood” or something of that sort. Palakpakan ang mga hapon na hindi naman naintindihan ang sinabi niya. Iyong nakakaintindi, hindi naman hindi naman nasakyan ang ibig niyang sabihin—na gusto niyang ibugaw ang mga batang pilipino sa mga matatandang hapon! Buti na lang pagkatapos noon, gumawa ang Japan ng bagong batas para hindi makapasok ang mga biktima ng human trafficking na mga dalaginding at binatilyo sa Japan.
Buti bumaba na si Sto. Tomas kundi labas niya bugaw pa rin!
Schumey:
I have posted the story of the abduction of UP students in our UPAA in Japan egroup. Ang nakakatakot nito ay baka halayin ang mga dalagang ito.
I understand that UP held a demo yesterday with the Dean of the UP Sociology Department demanding for their safe release.
But here comes the stupid AFP mass murderer Palparan saying that they are NPA cadres! Saan bang bundok nanggaling iyan?
Nakita mo na ba ang demonstration namin sa Tokyo last March? It’s in the arkibong’s archives. Unbelievable ang kawalanghiyaan ng pekeng administration na ito!
Lahat dito welcome. Ang hinihiling ko lang sa bawat isa ay huwag tayo mag personal na mang-iinsulto kahit sa mga hindi suma-sangayon sa iyong opinyon.
Ganun talaga ang demokrasya. Hindi lahat magkapareho ang pagiisip ngunit dapat igalang ang panindigan ng bawat isa.
Tama ka, Ellen. Nakakapagtaka nga kung bakit ako ang pinupuntirya e hindi naman ako ang issue kaya halata mo na provocateur lang, at alam nilang totoo ang sinasabi ko.
Kaya, pag nakita ko na ang pangalan, pass kesa patulan ko. Nonsense makidebate sa mga ganyang tao dahil wala ka namang matutunan sa kanila. Dadami lang ang peleges mo sa mukha!
Malaking bagay ang ginagawa mo, Ellen, kaya maraming bumabasa ng mga sinusulat mo. This blog is not only actually a venue for venting out emotions, but a good way to share information para hindi makahirit ang mga sinungaling at magugulo! God bless you!
ELLEN,
Salamat po! Saludo ako sa sinabi ninyo. Sana magising yung IBA na porke nasaringan ang Opinyon ay magmumura na at isasabit pa yung iba. Walang personalan dahil hindi mo naman personal life ang pinag-uusapan dito. Kaya mahirap na ipikit ang mga mata natin na ganito rin ang nangyayari sa Bansang Pinas. Imbes na magtulungan ay nagpapa-ta-asan ng jingle at idadawit pa ang pangalan ng dakilang Naglalang. Aprub din ako na hindi pweding pareho ang pag-iisip ng bawa’t isa, kundi robot tayo. Mabuhay kayo at sana maging prinsipyo ITO “# Ellen Says:

Bato bato sa Langit ang tamaan ay huwag magalit.
Ma’m Ellen…humihingi po ako ng paumanhin, sapagka’t nagiging “lugar” ang iyong “site” ng palitan namin ng “maaanghang na salita”. I should have not “stooped down” to that level, kaya lang ng “ikomento” ni Ronnie Mabini na “utak talangka”, ang lahat ng “bumabatikos” kay PANDAK, guess it was just a bit too much for me to ignore. Again, pasensya na, at sana’y hindi ka magsawa sa “pag-accomodate” sa aming lahat, “asar” man o “tuwang-tuwa” kay GLORIA.
Tanong kay Bentong, naiintindihan mo ba ang sinabi mo: “Hindi lahat magkapareho ang pagiisip ngunit dapat igalang ang panindigan ng bawat isa.” Please stop preaching if you cannot do yourself what you preach. Masagwa iyan! No one has a prerogative to an opinion, tandaan mo!
Spartan:
Salamat sa mga isinusulat mo. Hindi lang nakakaalis ng peleges sa mukha, nakakababa pa ng HBP. Huwag nang sabihing kasi magkapareho tayo ng pag-iisip!
Maganda iyong sinabi ni Phil Cruz tungkol sa mga sinungaling!
Yuko san,
Pasensiya na po at hindi ko nga yata naiintindihan kung bakit hindi tayo pare pareho ng pagiisip. Sorry kung hindi pasa sa standards ninyo ang IQ ko tulad na rin ng mga kasambayanan ko. Hindi ko rin namalayan na preaching na pala ako. Paumanhin na rin kung matanong ko..ganda ng mga preachings ninyo..sana kasing galing kayo ng mga kaparihan sa amin para hindi na sila sumaydline sa politika. Pwedi bang malaman kung saan makikita ang sinabi ni Phil Cruz para hindi naman ako huli sa kasinungalingan. Mapayapang hapon sa inyo lahat!
Alam ninyo, ang isa sa mga magandang natutunan ko sa mga taga ibang nasyon ay ang mga tungkol sa Pinoy?
Ang mga Pinoy daw ay mahilig mag “sorry”.
Kaya lumalabas tuloy na walang gulugod at mga bahag ang buntot!
Nelbar:
Hindi ako naniniwala diyan. Ang hirap mo ngang mapa-Sorry ang mga pinoy sa totoo lang. Pirming may “but” na kasunod at mahabang palpak na katwiran. 😛 Cheers!
alam mo ystakei? sana birthday mo bukas!ikaw na lang 2nd nanay ko sa internet!
mahilig kasi ako magbasa ng mga petsa, a-dos bukas diba?
luv u ninang!
Spartan, no need to apologize. It’s good to vent out our feelings and views. We learn from each other.
Nelbar:
No, it is not my birthday. It is Imelda’s birthday! I’m not a Cancer like the two first consorts of the Philippines’ two president, one a dictator and another a fraud and their espouses both Fatso and Fatsa.
Ang tigas ng mga ulo ng mga iyan. Kahit may ginagawang masama, mabuti at mabait pa rin sila sa mga mata nila!!!
OK na nga ninang mo na ako! Huwag ka lang tatawag sa akin ng ate kung mas matanda ka pa sa akin! 🙂
Oops, two presidents pala!!!
Yuko,
Yan nga ang nakakatawa kay pandak, galit siya sa mga pari na bumabatikos sa kanya. Nakalimutan na kaya niya na signatory si Fr. Reyes sa impeachment. Tuwang-tuwa din si pandak when Cardinal Sin called upon the people again in EDSA II. May amnesia kaya siya or politics by convinience ang pinapairal niya. Trapo talaga, pag kakampi ang simbahan, hindi daw meddling pero pag kalaban na, meddling na sa affairs of the state. Ganyan din ang mga tongressmen ni pandak. Malapit na ang eleksyon, pupusta ako na magkakandarapa na naman yang mga yan sa pagkuha ng endorso ng simbahan. Talagang mga hangal.
Schumey:
I’m not Catholic. I used to but I changed religion when I was 17. When I first took the Catechism lessons for receiving my first communion when I turned 8, the first question I asked was how God looked like because I did not like the eye in some triangle that the Catechist said was God!
My father, who did not have faith in the Catholic religion himself, gave me a Bible when I was 12, and it was not a Catholic Bible but the King James version. I decided to take up lessons via post on the Bible, and I got good marks because I wanted to know the truth, and hoped that my faith in the Catholic religion would be strengthened because I was in fact feeling guilty for having those thoughts that were not in conformity with what I was taught by my Catechist. However, the more I read the Bible, the more discrepancies I discovered that made me to search more for what to me and other members of our church to be the truth.
I talked to a lot many missionaries of other faiths, but it was not because of the missionaries that made me decide to be converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints to which I now belong. The first time I went to their church, I felt embraced there by some unseen force that made me to see the magnitude of God’s love for us, and how He wants to take us back to His Kingdom. Right there and then, I decided I would like to be baptized, and see how I could respond to that magnificent Love!
Funny, how other people of other faiths would kind of live double lives, being good on Sundays but not on other days. We don’t do that in our church. We recognize the fact that we are not perfect and try not to blame the devil too much for tempting us since we have been gifted with some free agency to choose between good and evil, whether or not to follow him, but as good Christians, we try hard to be “as perfect as the Father” by following His Commandments and His Will.
Amazingly, it has proven effective likewise in making it easier to follow even the laws of men especially those inspired of God, and question those concocted by evil men for their own personal gains as the Constitution, for example, drafted by the Bansot’s appointees to help her remain where she is presently!!!
Another thing that I am grateful for being a member of our church is that I can have this confidence and courage to do what is right and doing things fearlessly and undaunted, because I know that God will be on my side for as long as I obey His Commandments and do His Will! It takes in fact only some tiny ear to listen to that Still Small Voice!
