Palparan, yes; Magdalo, no

The Comelec gave accreditation as partylist to dubious groups represented by people close to Malacañang yet they denied the application of Samahang Magdalo based on their paranoia and misconception of the group.

In denying the group’s accreditation, Commissioner Nicodemo Ferrer said that “the principal founders of the Magdalo Para Sa Pagbabago Party remain unrepentant and that they still harbor the propensity to engage in another illegal adventure similar to the failed 2003 Oakwood Mutiny, should they again fail to achieve their goal — this time with the use of the political party that they are now applying for accreditation and which may very well be used by them to recruit and indoctrinate disciplined followers which may become their blind followers.”

The Magdalo group today assailed the denial of the application as party list as “unfair, defective, myopic and shortsighted”

“ Mawalang-galang na po sa mga makakaliwang-grupo, but why is it that left-leaning groups, even those identified with the NPA, have been accredited by the Comelec and have in fact been allowed to participate in the National, Local and Party-List elections while the Magdalo, which is composed of former officers and enlisted personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, and now even civilians, are denied the same opportunity? Does the Comelec have a bias against former members of the AFP?,” former Air Force Lt. Ashley Acedillo said reading the group’s statement.

The Magdalo statement asked, “O dapat po bang maging retirado ka munang heneral ng AFP na kahit nabansagan kang berdugo pero dahil ka-alyado ng administrasyon ay papaboran ka?”

Acedillo said, “ If the desire of Magdalo is to merely ‘recruit and indoctrinate disciplined followers who may become their blind followers’, we would not go to the trouble of filing a petition for accreditation with the Comelec. We could very well have achieved this purpose by forming even an informal group or a secret or clandestine organization at patagong mag-recruit ng mga miyembro, at kung ano pa,” said Acedillo, who is the Magdalo spokesman.

He added, “The fact that the Magdalo have decided to form a group and apply for accreditation as a political party signifies the group’s desire and firm resolve to continue its advocacy for reforms through legitimate and lawful means, particularly by participating in the electoral process.

“In fact, it is in the best interest of the country for Comelec to encourage the Magdalo group to join the mainstream of Filipino society and allow it to participate in the democratic process, especially in elections, by approving its application for accreditation as a political party sa halip na i-isolate kami at itulak sa isang tabi sa pagbasura ng aming petisyon.”

Acedillo said they will file a motion for reconsideration.

    Where in hell did this critter of a Commissioner come from? His logic is abolutely perverted! A first louie stood him up and unmasked him to be an incompetent fool!

  2. As in the American occupational government when they made filipino nationalism and resistance against american invasion an illegal adventure, so is today when the GMA puppet government of the americans is branding resistance to her collaboration and treasonous activities in handing over our national territories to the americans and the chinese an illegal adventure.

  3. The problem with Magdalo is their illusion that the system is working for the people.

    The system is put there by the Elite to serve their own purpose, not the people’s.

    But of course they have to try this process once to confirm that it is really the case.

    That is just only a glimpse of what the comelec is capable of doing come election time. They serve at the pleasure of their masters in Malacanyang.

    Magdalo’s group needs to go to Supreme Court. But this high Government branch is one of the crooks too. talo pa rin sila.

    Lacson – Chiz or Chiz – Binay ang dapat siguro. Erap needs to rest and help na lang siya sa mga bata.

    As long as the komisyoners of the kumolek are appointees of the illegal president, expect nothing else to favor progressive groups. Takot sila sa mga ito.

    what the hell is happening in our country?hoy ferrer!ayusin mo nga iyang pag-iisip mo.ikaw ang blind follower!

    It’s insane to accredit a partylist who are sympathizers of the NPA who are waging war against the state, but refused accreditation to a group who are part of the soldiery that defends the state from this group. And it’s more insane to give accreditation to a partylist group led by a known butcher who is supposed to be in jail responsible for the disappearance and killing of many people while in the military service.

    Ferrer and his ilk in the Comelec are all a bunch of idiots and ultimate Gloria ass-lickers. These people have really no shame for stooping so low and allowing themselves to be used to please the whims of a lame-duck bogus president.

    The only hope for our country is to kick the elitistas who worship foreigners such as the spanish,americans and chinese.

    Well,the elitistas are the reason why the spanish and americans were able to rule us,let’s do something to change that,we should never allow them to sell our country anymore like they did in the past.

    Ano na nga ba ang ginagawang ito ng Comolect? Sinasakal nila ang kalapati at hinahayaang makapanalasa nang husto’t walang patumangga ang kawan ng mga buwitre?

    Goyang na goyang ang dating!

    To end this double standard policy set by an administration NOT LEGALLY mandated and survives only by BRIBING their equally greedy cohorts, WE, the souvereign Filipino majority should elect a leader whose vision is for the common good to be equally enjoyed by all citizens of the country.

    Time is ripe to end the infamous Pinoy attitude of Bahala Na and Pakikisama Lang and start thinking of doing what is good and right for everyone to break the seed of corruption that drains our resources.

    Amihan, the GMA administration is NOT a puppet government of the Americans nor any super power of any sort. Be it militarily or economically. Panduck’s a treasonous one always ready to SELL our souvereignty in exchange for her comfort and wealth next to her existence.

    A ray of hope is now being seen in the horizon.

    Just greet it with a smile and say “Cheeze”.

  12. MPRivera MPRivera

    Para sa pagbabago, pahalagahan ang desisyon at boto ninyo!

    Para sa bansa.

  13. Amihan, the GMA administration is NOT a puppet government of the Americans nor any super power of any sort. Be it militarily or economically. Panduck’s a treasonous one always ready to SELL our souvereignty in exchange for her comfort and wealth next to her existence.

    Gloria is a typical elitista who worships foreigners,iyon ang masasabi ko.

    LAHAT NG KASAMAHAN NANDITO NA SA GLORIA ADMINISTATION.

    Hindi maglalakas loob ang Gloria Administration kung walang suporta ang mga sundalo sa kanya. Kaya minsan tuwang tuwa ako kung natatalo sila sa giyera sa mindanao at may namamatay na sundalo at military officials.

    Dapat ang militar takutin nila ang taga malakanyang para may takot at tumahimik sila. Alam naman nila kung gaano kasama ang kasalukuyang administration pero anong ginagawa ang mga generals na yan! Tahimik sila kasi nababayaran para sa ganun “Untouchable” lahat ng taga malakanyang.

    Kaya naman lahat ng retired generals ni Gloria, mga utak pulbura at baluktot ang pag iisip. Baluktot na ang pag iisip ginawa pa silang secretaries kaya yan nagkaloko-loko ang pilipinas.

    not surprised by what comelec did. afterall tuta ni gma mga yan. yun namang tungkol sa pork barrel ni chiz na sinasabi ni vonjovi, please do research before commenting – wala nga siyang pork barrel dahil kalaban siya ni bansot.

    pero going back to the magdalo, how i wish they succeeded. better leaders ang mga iyan dahil may pagmamahal sa bayan hindi kagaya nung mga lumang pulitika at nagpayamang pulitika.

    FPJPM party-list was in the ballot during election and got 300,000 votes but still Comelec disqualified this party-list. If ever the Madalo will be in the ballot, baka ganito rin mangyari sa kanila they will be disqualified eventually kahit na makakuha pa sila ng big numbers sa election. This happened to FPJPM and MAD.

  17. Namputcha, yung kapatid ni Abalos na doktor, representative daw ng isang tricycle association sa Mandaluyong. Walang kakwenta-kwenta’t mababaw, pero aprubado. Yung Kapatid ni Mike Arroyo na milyonaryang representante daw ng mga magbabalut, ayun, congresswoman na.

    Yung mga komunistang hayagang nagsasabing kailangan ng madugong pagpabagsak sa gobyerno, diba’t mga partylist congressmen na rin?

    Pero itong mga tauhan ng gobyerno mismo na nagbulgar ng katiwalian sa AFP para matigil na itong pesteng kurapsiyon sa gobyerno, nakakulong na, nahecha-pwera pa!

    Pwede bang pagsasampalin kong isa-isa itong mga taga-Comelec para matauhan?

    Nawalan na ng preno itong Kumolek at hindi na malaman kung saan dadalhin ang argumento. Hindi lamang sa bangin dinala ang usapin, humugot pa ng kapaliwanagan na popular sa mundo ng mga tralala.

    Tumalon na rin sa bintana ang kahuli-hulihang bahid ng katinuan ang mokong na Nic Ferrer na ito.

    Ano pa’t hindi nag-aalsa balutan itong si James Jimenez?

  19. Bakit mag-aalsa balutan e bagay na bagay siya diyan. Sindikato ang dating. Tignan mo yung spokesman ng Supreme Court na si Midas Marquez, may dignidad ang porma, hindi yung parang sangganong halimaw.

  20. Si Ace Acedillo, tignan mo litrato sa itaas, matikas. Si Sen. Sonny Trillanes, spokesman ng Magdalo noon diba, makalaglag-panty daw sabi nung haircutter ko. Kahit yung iba’t-ibang mga spokesmen ng mga service branches ng AFP, puro merong porma.

    Si Cerge Remonde at James Jimenez pag nakita mo alam mo agad na corrupt yung opisinang nirerepresent nila.

    Halatang TINIPID! Nyahahaha!

  21. Sensya na, trip ko lang manakot. Happy Halloween! Bwahahaha!

  22. parasabayan parasabayan

    Hindi pa naman final na turn down kuno. Kulang lang daw ang mga documents nila.

  23. saxnviolins saxnviolins

    Unrepentant daw. Findings of fact were made on facts which are not on record. Ang tanging nakalagay sa registration application are names, addresses, etc. Mirakulo ang findings of fact not yan. Parang diary ni Angara na naging basehan ng Supreme Court decision.

    Acceptance of registration, sabi ng COMELEC, is merely ministerial, so tatanggapin nila ang registration bilang candidato ni Erap. Kailangan ng kumokontra, para mag-disqualify. Kaya nga nag-file ang adelantadong Oliver Lozano. So what is the difference between a party registrant and an individual registrant? Ministerial din yan, at dapat may kalaban to disqualify.

    In the disqualification proceedings, doon na, ma-de-develop ang record, introducing evidence. Doon, dapat sitting impartial as a quasi-judicial body ang COMELEC. Pero ayan, pinakita na ang baraha. There is no impartiality.

    Alam naman natin yan, pero huwag namang lantaran, dahil dinaya ka na, ininsulto ka pa.

    Pwede bang pagsasampalin kong isa-isa itong mga taga-Comelec para matauhan?

    Pinahagikgik mo naman ako ng tawa Igan TonGuE-tWisTeD…bwahahahaha!

    Sige lahatin mo na ang mga pasaway na yan…puro pahirap sa bayan? Row four ang tabko ng mga kukote, walang iniisip na maganda para sa kapakinabangan ng bayan at sambayang Pinoy.

  25. Tama ka diyan Balweg, bolang kristal ni Madam Auring ang ginamit para hulaan kung ano ang maaring gawin daw ng Magdalo. Parang yung huwes na kumukonsulta sa dwende bago magdesisyon.

    Di ko tuloy alam kung bangag sa droga o talaga lang mga baliw.
