No one is really surprised that Vice President Jejomar Binay backed out of the Nov. 27 debate with Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV which he himself suggested to the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster sa Pilipinas.
When the debate was starting to take a life of its own after he mentioned it to KBP President Herman Basbaño last October and Trillanes accepted the challenge, Binay was just waiting for an opportunity to back out.
The opportunity happened yesterday during his 72nd birthday celebration at the Philippine Marines headquarters.
He was asked about Trillanes’ statements that he was going into the much-publicized activity fully aware that the vice president, a lawyer, has an advantage as far as debating skills are concerned. But the senator, who was formerly a Philippine Navy officer said, he is on the side of truth.
Binay said, “Huwag na natin ituloy. Ayoko na kung ganyan sinasabi niya. (Let’s not push through with it. I don’t like if that’s what he is saying.)”
Binay explained: “Ang dahilan ko mga kababayan e dahil sa marami na akong naririnig na ako ay ganito…ako ay mahusay, ako ay naging debater, ako ay abogado, e sobra na ‘tong mga sinabi niyang ganyan na kumpirmadong sinabi niya, e ayaw ko naman hong maging..ang pagkakalilala niyo sa aking mga kababayan ay mapang-api, mapagsamantala…so tama na po ‘yun.(The reason why I am withdrawing is I have heard comments that I am an experienced debater, I’m a lawyer. He has also been saying things as if they were already confirmed. I don’t want to appear oppressive and opportunistic, so I am backing out.)”
But Binay’s spokesperson, Cavite governor Jonvic Remulla , was outrageously creative in his reason for his principal’s withdrawal from the debate: the Vice President realized it is a “disservice” to the survivors of Super Typhoon Yolanda.
Trillanes said his reaction is one of “ambivalence.”
“Actually, I’m, in a way, expecting this, so, I couldn’t be disappointed,” he said.
He added that Binay’s withdrawal from something that he himself started shows his untrustworthiness.“Kasi alam niyo, ever since hindi napanghahawakan ang salita ni Vice President Binay.(You know, ever since VP Binay has no word of honor).This will totally destroy his credibility. Hindi na talaga natin siya mapagkakatiwalaan(We really can’t trust him).”
Trillanes recalled the Nov. 29, 2007 Manila Peninsula siege, where Binay was part of the group that planned a civilian-military action to oust Gloria Arroyo, who was then embroiled in election cheating and corruption scandals.
Trillanes, who had won as senator while in detention for the July 2003 Oakwood mutiny against Arroyo, was scheduled to appear in a hearing at the Makati Regional Trial Court at the Makati City Hall that day.
The plan was for a mass rally in front of the statue of Sen. Benigno Aquino at the corner of Ayala Avenue and Paseo de Roxas. Binay promised to mobilize his constituents including city hall employees for the mass action.
As planned, Trillanes, his fellow Magdalo soldiers , and Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim walked out of the hearing only to find out that there were no people at the agreed venue. “Paglabas namin noong araw ng pag-aaklas, wala si VP Binay. Pinahamak niya ang buong grupo (When we walked out of the court, there was no Binay. He put us in trouble .”
Trillanes and his companions decided to go to Manila Peninsula where they made a stand against the Arroyo government. ““Buong araw walang dumating. At si VP Binay, ‘yong anino niya, hindi nakita sa Makati.”
Binay was with former President Joseph Estrada in Quezon City that day. The military later rammed an armored tank into the Manila Pen lobby and lobbed tear gas forcing the rebel soldiers to surrender.
Trillanes said Binay later visited him at Camp Crame, where he was detained , and apologized.
Trillanes said the Manila Pen incident, the revelations in the Senate investigation and the manner Binay is facing them “ show lack of character, untrustworthiness of the Vice President, and the lack of any intention to face the people regarding the allegations brought up against him.”
He said the Senate investigation of Binay will continue.
What will be Binay’s next move? Back out of the 2016 presidential race?
Binay next move is to prepare his self and that of his family to for his day in Court and that will come…who in this whole country will ever expect that Juan Ponce Enrile with all his wiliness and cleverness, his influence and enormous resources end up counting days in Detention??? And Binay is due to do his time…
Kapag gusto may paraan, kapag ayaw may dahilan. Ikumpara ang buhay ni Binay sa panahon ni Marcos sa ngayon. Milya milya na ang agwat. Nakiisa na patalsikin si Marcos dahil corrupt daw, pero siya maraming alegasyon ng corruption.
Aatras si Binay, neg credibility na. Binay betrayed the people when neither his promised force or his ugly face showed up at the Manila Peninsula in 2007.
I am not a bit surprised of his atras move ngayon, specially that Sen Sonny has cornered him already. Binay knows very well hindi aatras si Sen Sonny kahit short of debate expertise. Kung si aleng Goyang nga hindi siya nasindak si Binay pa kaya. I believe AT1V is in possession of solid documents against Binay, iniwasan lang ni Binay na maisampal sa pagmumukha niya ang mga documents. 🙂
Naku Ellen, ginawa pang tanga ni Remulla ang mga biktima ng Yolanda. Pathetic excuse to withdraw from a debate.
Ang problema dito sa atin ay ang kakapal ng mukha nitong mga magnanakaw. Di aatras iyan sa halalan ng presidente.
Kita nyo naman ang Arroyo kahit anong gawin ay tumakbo pa ng tongresswoman sa Panpanga. Ang masakit dito ay ang daming sirang ulo kababayan natin an bumoboto pa rin sa mga hinayupak na ito. Ang mga bontanteng ito ang dapat na mawala at di ini isip ang bansa natin. Kung sino ang magnanakaw sa gobyerno ay sila nilang binoboto.
Grabe na dito sa atin wala ng pag galang sa batas at ang masakit pa ay ang spokeperson ni Binay ay ang dahilan daw ng pag atras ay dahil tutulong sa Yolanda victims. Bakit isang linggo ba ang dbate nila. Para maantala ang pag tulong sa binagyo noon. 2 oras lang yata ang palugit ng debate nila at kayang kaya niyang ilapad ang sarili niya pag punta sa probinsiya kung gusto niya tumulong.
Teka baka naman may nakitang pag kakakitaan doon at siyempre ang mga ganid na ito ay uunahin ang pera bago ang bayan.
Kung sino man ang boboto kay Binay ay mga tanga at bobo isa kayo nag papahirap sa bansa natin.
Akala ko ba kaialangan niyang tumulong sa Yolanda’s victim.
Eh bakit sa mga sundalo siya nag B-day at nag mudmud ng regalo. Ano ito binibili niya ang serbisyo ng sundalo.
Bakit di siya pumunta sa mga nasalanta ng bagyo at doon niya ibigay ang mga bags para sa mga bata etc. na kailangan ng mga tao.
Nandoon na si Ping at di na siya kailangan para mag PHOTO OP.
Gago ang botanteng boboto kay Binay at sa mga angkan niya.

From Bert Africa:
I have been following Philippine polical arena ever since Pnoy went into action and felt contended with unravelling of graft and corruption from the highest to the lowest level in the government. Imagine, the plunder and corruption from Erap and Arroyo as president, Corona as Supreme Court Chief Justice, Enrile, Estrada, Revilla as senators and now VP Binay running for next president and Purisima as chief of PNP, these people are highest figures on PH land. Even Ombudsman and Sandigan Bayan offices are also turnished. What happen if Pnoy term is over? What is next? Unless a dependable watchdog in tandem with media can be established to expose future graft and corruption. I was wondering why Freedom Of Information legislation in senate remain in status quo. The history of plunder and corruption are rooted in PH and people with power and prestige is prone to greed leading to graft and corruption, just like most of actors and actresses got involved in politics. I hope passing of Anti-Political Dynasty legislation in senate should get approve. To my understanding, this is one of main source of plunder. Sorry to say but I find politics in PH is the most rewarding career now a days. This is the reason why I personally advocating Pnoy running for the 2nd term in the office, he need to finish the work he started and get rid of these political and government officials scalawags. People poverty and national development could have been achieved should plundered money from PH treasure is used for the people.
Binay should withdraw from 2016 presidential election, he has a very slim chance of winning in national election. May be it may work in local government position just like what Erap did in Manila. I could imag
#3, Chi nadale mo sa leeg ang TAMA. tama lahat ang sinabi mo. maybe aatras nga sa 2016 election at mawawala na lang siya. dahil alam niya na tiyak na kulong siya like JPE
It is not enough to Demand the withdrawal of Binay from 2016 Race but the :Senate and the Public should demand a very thorough Criminal Probe of all allegations of Corruption and criminal activities of all members of is circles and also an Independent Inquiry to find the Root causes of these Maladies and find Measures to Prevent them Happening again and again.
The Binays, Estradas , Revillas , Napoles etc are just the Syptoms of the System that is Sick and needs some real diagnosis on what it is suffering from and what are the treatments.
It is not just the Political leaders.. And the politicians. Everyone in society has a part in this malady., the Electorate, the media, the business, and even the religious institution.
Ellen,
I have heard rumors that Binay is very popular with Marines so popular in fact that there are a number of them who will protect Binay should a direct confrontation between Binay and the Senate or subpoena and warrant of arrest servers occur.
Sa madaling salita, kung mauulit ang ginawa ni Binay na pagbabarikada nung panahon ni GMA, this time meron nang mga Marines na tutulong sa kanya.
That’s why when he celebrated his birthday at Marine HQ, when he donned a Team Navy t-shirt, joined their walkathon, morning calesthenics, and boodle fight, medyo napaisip ako na baka pinagmamalaki na ni Binay na mabigat ang back-up niya.
Pls check with your contacts kung ano nga ang relationship ni Binay with some of the officers and men in the Marine corps
Binay is following the footsteps of Erap. Muntik pa ngang manalo ulit si ERap in the 2010 elections. Ang problem nation ay ang mga botante. They will vote the people who can give them money come election time. The corrupt donors will put another corrupt president into office coz they like to be in business again. It is not remote that the voters will still put Binay into office. God forbids. We will have another corrupt regime. One step forward, two steps backward.
The truth finally came out. Binay betrayed Sonny at the Manila Pen. Binay was plotting to oust GMA but now he is visiting GMA. “Traidor” ang tawag dyan. I can not blame Sonny to be as passionate as he is in making sure that Binay will not win the presidency.
Binay’s joining the marines looks like a surprise to the marines. Baka bigla lang dumating si Binay dyan sa exercises ng mga marines. Di ba Col siya?
Feeling officer siya di ba? During the senate
hearings, I heard that he even wears his military uniform in his “hacienda” when he entertains his visitors.
If Binay still wins the presidency after all the exposes of his corrupt ways, hopeless na talaga ang Pinas.
laging laman ng mga pahayag ng mga senador na nagdidiin sa kasong nakaw na yaman si VP binay at meron silang sapat na ebidensiyang magpapatunay na nagkamal siya ng salapi mula pa noong meyor siya ng makati gayundin ang kanyang pamilya. KUNG meron nga, bakit hindi pa nila ihain ang kaso sa ombudsman na siyang angkop na ahensiya upang gumulong ang imbestigasyon at mapalabas ang katotohanan?
ang dalawang kapulungan ng kongreso ay institusyong laan upang gumawa ng mga batas at ang mga batas na ito ay dapat na maging sandata laban sa pang-aapi, panlalamang, pagsasamantala at pagyurak ng mga naghahariharian sa karapatan ng mahihina at walang kakayahang karaniwang mamamayan SUBALIT bakit sinasayang ng mga mambabatas ang mahahalagang oras na dapat nilang ilaan upang magbalangkas ng mga alituntunin at batas?
ano ba ang gusto nilang patunayan sa taongbayan? MAGALING sila sa mga debate at pagbulatlat ng baho ng kapwa nila nasa kapangyarihan?
matatapos na naman ang taon at nalalapit na ang eleksiyon. ganyan na lamang ba nila gugugulin ang oras na dapat nilang ilaan upang gampanan ang dapat nilang papel sa senado at kongreso?
sa ganyan bang pagbabangayan sa harap ng media sila sinusuwelduhan mula sa buwis ng taong bayan? sa ganyan ba sila binibigyan ng fund allocations para sa kanikanilang mga proyekto?
sino ba sa kanila ang hindi nakikinabang sa mga laang pondo?
tsk. tsk. tsk.
karaniwang sinasabi ng sino mang kandidato – “kapag ako ang hinalal ninyo at nanalo, UMASA kayong bukas ang aking tanggapan upang kayo ay pakinggan sa inyong mga karaingan at masolusyunan ang mga problemang inyong ilalapit sapagkat ako ay makamahirap at katulad ninyo ay nanggaling sa hirap”.
nakakapagngitngit!
yolanda victims na naman ang nasa gitna ng mga dahilan. sila na lamang ba ang alam nitong mga nasa gobyerno na nangangailangan ng rehabilitasyon at tulong?
kahit kailan, itong mga lider natin ay walang alam KUNDI ang gamitin ang kuna lain ay alam nilang merong impact sa kanilang mga agenda.
kami bang biktima ng karahasan sa zamboanga at lindol sa bohol at ilang bahagi ng visayas ay hindi na kabilang sa priority ng gobyerno?
mga pilipino din naman kaming naninirahan sa teritoryo ng pilipinas, ah?
hindi ba bibilangin ang boto namin sa 2016?
“……..kahit kailan, itong mga lider natin ay walang alam KUNDI ang gamitin ang KUNG ALIN ay alam nilang merong impact sa kanilang mga agenda……..”
Snooper Said:
God forbids. We will have another corrupt regime. One step forward, two steps backward. –
I think we never have one step forward (dahil nandiyan nga si Pnoy na di nag nakaw pero di naman niya mabuwag ang mga kasamahan niya na mag nanakaw lalo na ang head ng pulisya).
Two Steps backward… 100 plus steps backward tayo dahil walang nangyayari maganda at palubog ang bansa natin simula ng mapalitan si Marcos. kanya kanya ng nakawan ang mga pumalit sa kanya.
Botante rin ang dapat sisihin dito kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay pabagsak ang bansa natin.
I don’t think that Binay has much sympathy among the marines. He’s still the Veep so they have to be respectful. Between Binay and Trillanes, the Senator carries more respect among the marines, and when push comes to shove, they’ll back Sonny.
Vonjovi, who would have thought that Arroyo, Enrile (now in his 90s, Revilla & Jinggoy will be detained? I believe that somehow, even if the corruption is not completely stopped, at least these are slowly being uncovered. Cooruption during Marcos was limited to just a few. Corrution now has become a way of life for almost all politicians. The ones who will not buy votes will never win and the ones who do will have to recoup the money they used to buy votes so they steal. The bottom-line is, it is the people who sell their votes who are to be blamed for what the Philippines have become. Change that system and we should see a turning point.
Lurker, I agree with you on # 22.
Ellen, weren’t you in Manila Pen?
Matagal ko nang gustong itaong kay Ellen kung sino ba yong sinasabi ni AT4 na hinihintay pero di dumating. Back read kayo during the Manila Pen days dito sa blog. Si Binay nga ang hinala ko noon pa. In fact, meron na ngang mga taga City Hall na kasama sa na-trap sa loob ng hotel.
Remember yung lalaking naka-Uzi at naka-wig? Kasama yun sa mga hinanting nila Puno para kasuhan ng rebellion pero di yata nakita.
Baka naitago sa Hacienda sa Batangas.
I agree with the conclusion of the CBCP priest. A Binay presidency is scary and dangerous.
Personally I know that he has coddled, employed as his close-in, cold-blooded gun-for-hire goons. My former neighbor, Antonio Da Silva, was infamous for dozens of vigilante rubouts he did before he became CIS civilian agent and later, Binay close-in-cum-hitman. Tony Kalkal, as Da Silva is popularly called in the underworld in Pasay, Makati, Paranaque, Las Pinas and Manila, is the reason Anabelle Rama had to send Ruffa off to the US for many years. Her boyfriend (who she had eloped with) then, Dennis, is Tony’s son. You know Anabelle’s reason, of course.
Da Silva has been permanently silenced (and replaced) because he was getting too noisy. No one has seen him or what’s left of him.
So, those who laugh at Trillanes when he said he might get killed, or at Cayetano who received a death threat yesterday, are laughing out of ignorance because they do not know the likes of Binay or what he is capable of.
Ayun pala sa picture. Nasa likod ni Danny Lim yung tao ni Binay na naka-wig. Panay pa rin ang deny ng Dark Forces.
Confirmed. I thought my memory was already failing me.
This was in December, 2007.
Talagang ang MAGNANAKAW kapatid ng SINUNGALING.
Read the full denial here:Rebel with wacky wig identified as Binay security man
Eksakto, nasa news yung interview kay Trillanes, pati yung footage ng presscon nila AT4, Gen. Lim, ex-VP Guingona at nakatayo sa likod si Rebel-in-wacky-wig.
Sabi ni Trillanes na in time, ibubuko niya rin yung iba pang politikong nagtulak pero nilaglag siya sa Manila Pen bukod kay Binay.
#25, Yes,Al I covered the walkout (of the Makati RTC)and the Manila Pen seige.
After the surender, we were arrested and brought to Fort Bonifacio.
We filed a case against the military officials, DND secretary,DOJ secretary and Police chief. Natalo kami.
Ganun lang talaga ng buhay.
#26. Tongue, it’s not only Binay who stood up Trillanes and the Magdalo.
Yung isa “alagad ng Diyos” pa.
tongue, hindi akalain ni Binay na sumabog ang kanyang ka-trayduran, konti lang ang nakakaalam niyan at tago sa kanyang mga followers lalo sa barrios, towns and provinces. Hope natauhan na ang mga BINAYaran at BINAYawak (sabi ng pinsan ko…:-) ni Binay.
Thanks to halungkat baul, sabog na sabog si Binay ngayon. Naniniwala ako sa sabi mo #27 So, those who laugh at Trillanes when he said he might get killed, or at Cayetano who received a death threat yesterday, are laughing out of ignorance because they do not know the likes of Binay or what he is capable of.
Di ba pati si Jim Paredes nagkarun ng death threat? Ang sagot ni Nancy eh “dapat hindi sya sensitive”. 🙂
Re # 29. Ang galing mong mag-retrieve sa archives, Tongue.
“The vice-president’s spokesman, Cavite Gov. Jonvic Remulla, said Binay even helped the Magdalo soldiers after their failed uprising by giving them jobs at his piggery in Rosario, Batangas.”
Natawa naman ako dito, ayyayay! Ito ba yung sinasabing naka-aircon na piggery?
From the promise of heaven at Manila Pen to Binay’s piggery…hahaha! Dafuq, Binay!
Tangnang Jonvic yan, hindi lang spinning yarns ang kumag. Spinning barbed wires pa. Insensitive daw sa Yolanda survivors kung matuloy ang debate. Ano daw?
Di ko alam kung epekto nung stroke ko ito pero di ko talaga makonek ang logic nung Yolanda sa debate. Kaya pala nakipag-boodle fight with matching “Team Marines” tshirt giveaways pa si Nognog nung birthday niya habang yung Yolanda victims gutom pa rin at walang mga maisuot.
Wala na rin sigurong pondong maipamudmod dahil balita ko, dinedema na ng donor-businessmen ang kampo nila kaya nga hindi makakalas sa Cabinet ni Aquino dahil wala nang pagkukunan ng panggastos sa pag-iikot sa buong Pinas. Malaki na ginastos nila nung isponsoran yung bagong surveys ni Casiple na siyempre pabor sa kanila para ma-preempt yung SWS at Pulse na ilalabas ngayong November.
Diyan mamamatay ang kandidatura niya, matutuyo ang campaign chest niya lalo na kung may tatapat na mag-aanounce ng candidacy ang isang mabango sa masa. Mapipilitan siyang ibuhos ang nakaw nila para mapondohan ang kampanya.
At yung legal cost ng mga kasong haharapin niya.
I remember that I posted very much earlier that Pnoy should be very careful. Kung may mangyari kay Pnoy, alam na natin kung sino ang prime suspect. Imagine kung si Binay ang susunod na presidente. Sigurado, ala midget and susunod na eksena, instant re-election, luto para siguradong may 2nd term Mafioso ang dating ni Binay..
#36. tongue….grabe ang alibi ni Jonvic dehins ko rin getz! 🙂
#37. snooper, agreed!
ako bilang isang Ham Radio Operator pinag-uusapan sa boung America ang issue ni Binay. May headline na lumabas sa isang Pinoy Daily ” BINAY BASHED, DEFENDED BY U.S. GROUPS ” na wala raw katotohanan na may bank account ang BInay sa USA. natural nasa DUMMY ang account. lahat ng mga pinoy na nag-uusap sa Ham Radio sampu ng kanilang familia ay hindi boboto kay Binay. so ang headline na suported ng mga PINOY si Binay, ay di totoo. may nabayaran si Binay para lumabas ang balita. kahit daw mga Pinoy sa mga Pilipino store & market ay ganon din ang mga sinasabi na hindi sila boboto Kay Binay. Dahil ang mga Pinoy na nabanggit ay mga dual citizen at gustong mag retire sa Pinas.
Dapat ang spokeman ay magaling diba.
Bakit nakakalito ang mga palusot nila ni Binay.
Isang TUSO pala si Neg eh… sige sama ako sa aklas.. pero ng makita niyang di uubra ay dito na lang ako sa tabi ni Erap ko…
Buhay talaga dito salawahan… tuso at mandurugas..
Hindi Ginebra ang ini inom ni Binay dahil wala siya pinag samahan. Stateside na alak yata eh..
Buti na lang, mga walang kwenta lahat ng spokesmen ni Binay. Lalo lamang nagagalit sa kanya ang mamamayan. Pati pagpili ng spokesmen, palpal si Binay!
Hayan binanatan na ni Miriam si Binay. Kung tunay nga naman na kasama sa pagplano ng rebellion itong si Nognog, pwede pa siyang makulong. Wala pa namang sampung taon, pwede pa. Sige na!
Salamat, Tongue.
Naulinigan sa barberya…
Fear and guilt were all over the facial expression and body language of Binay when he was announcing that he was backing out of the debate with Sen. Antonio Trillanes that he had proposed. It was he who had challenged Trillanes to the debate: “Kung gusto niya, debate kami, anytime, anywhere.” But when Trillanes accepted the challenge, he began to look for excuses to back out. (Note that he did not challenge Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano, who is a lawyer like himself. He probably thought that Trillanes, who is not a lawyer but a soldier, would be a pushover.)
When rumors circulated that he was going to back out of the debate, Binay said: “Hindi tayo aatras. Hindi yata ako umaatras.” (We will not retreat. I do not retreat.)
So why did Binay back out on the very flimsy excuse that Trillanes had said he would be at a disadvantage because he is not a lawyer? So what if he said that? The debate itself would have shown the people who is lying and who is not. It seems Binay is just a bluffer. – Neal H. Cruz

Conspiracy to commit rebellion ba, sabi ni Brenda? Mali naman.
Sometime ago, I opined that there was no rebellion in the case of Trillanes. That opinion applies to Binay as well, and all those who helped, or intended to help Trillanes.
Rebellion is committed as follows:
An essential element is the taking of arms. Wala namang armas si Trillanes noon. Galing nga sa kulungan.
Now conspiracy is committed when two or more individuals agree to commit rebellion. That means, they agree to take up arms. Kung people power, then there is no rebellion, because there are no arms.
Hawak na ng Ombudsman di ba? So let her do her job. Wala namang saysay yang Senate hearing na yan kundi political voyeurism – wow may ninakaw; wow sinungaling, wow this and that. So what?
Although I opined for Trillanes when he was being prosecuted, I was never a fan. This is where I part company with the folks here.
If Trillanes is as staunch in his anti-patong crusade with Drilon as with Binay, maybe I will change my mind. I also agree with Lacson and the Joker, on not spending the PDAF or DAP, or whatever you call it.
So maybe Trillanes did not make tong-pats with his PDAF; that he is honest, and blah blah blah. But my disagreement with the PDAF, DAP, or whatever name, is conceptual. Spending should be determined by Congress, not by individual legislators. Honest man siya, honest man si Saguisag, honest man si Ting Paterno, I still hold to the belief that the power to determine where and on what to spend is reposed by the Constitution in the institution, not its individual members. So that Saguisag, Trillanes, or Ting Paterno are honest, is immaterial to my disagreement with the PDAF, DAP, or CDF (countrywide development fund daw, noong panahon ni Cory.).
If we go by the honesty of the legislators – Saguisag, Paterno, and Trillanes (as many here believe), then we are relying on good men, not on good laws. Tapos ang rule of law.
Sa Saligang-Batas ko ibig magtiwala, hindi sa tao.
And by the way, ano na ang nangyari sa DAP, saan na ba ginastos? Bakit ang tagal ng disclosure ng COA, regarding the good men? Bakit nga pala walang audit sa gastos ni Penoy at Mar Roxas noong legislator sila? Dahil ba sila ay good and honest men? Selective na ba ang audit ng COA?
The proof of the pudding is in the eating, wika ng mga Kano. Ang linamnam ng bibingka ay nasusuri sa pagkain nito.
Only when the COA audit of the PDAF of Penoy and Mar Roxas is disclosed, will I believe the hosannahs that they are honest men. Isama niyo na yang Trillanes, Cayetano, and Pimentel.
#36. “Tangnang Jonvic yan, hindi lang spinning yarns ang kumag. Spinning barbed wires pa.” Tongue
hahahaha.
At the recent EON PTI event, a group of PR people were talking about Jonvic Remulla’s announcement that he would be Binay’s spokesman up to January 2015 only.
One said, “Binay is paying Jonvic P10 million a month daw. Let’s offer our services. Tatlo tayo for P10 million.”
Hahahaha!
#47. atorni, gameball sargo ka!
sino sa mga nasa puwesto ang nagkusang magbigay ng share mula sa kanilang fund allocations upang magkabahay ang mga nawalan ng tirahan na naging biktima ng bagyo, lindol at higit sa lahat ay mga nasunugan ng tahanan at kabuhayan sa zamboanga city?
kung hindi nakikinabang sa kung anumang tawag na ‘yan (PDAF o DAP,kahit na holdap) ang mga mambabatas, wala na sigurong magpapatayang kandidato ang gugustuhing maging senador o konggresista.
hindi maitatanggi na ang mga isinasagawang hearing ng SBC ay PAGSASAYANG lamang ng oras at pondo ng bayan dahil sa dami na ng kanilang mga inimbistigahan AY wala pa silang nailalabas na committee report o kaya ay napapatunayang guilty. puro lamang sila pagalingan sa pananakot sa mga inirereklamo at mga testigo gayundin sa mga resource persons na iniimbitahan lamang upang magbigay linaw sa mga kaso.
Magno, ang committee report inilalabas pag tapos na imbestigasyon. Pangalawa, fact-finding lang ang imbestiagasyon, ang Ombudsman babanat sa Sandiganbayan para patunayang magnanakaw nga si Negro, hindi Senado. Pagalingan? Hindi yata tamang ang tinitignan kung sino magaling. Ang nagsasabi ng katotohanan lang ang nagwawagi.
Kung hindi naharang ang PDAF/DAP/HOLDAP baka nasolusyunan na yang problema nyo sa Zamboanga. Ngayon balik uli sa mas mabagal na paraan – planning, budget, bidding, award, execution, etc.
ang alam ko sa fact-finding ay ‘yung paghalukay sa mas malalim na ebidensiya HINDI ‘yung akusasyon pa lamang ng isang gumon sa sugal na umaming nagnakaw habang nasa posisyon subalit nang maghirap ay naghahanap ng kasamang mahihila sa hukay. dapat ay hindi selective ang pagtanggap ng mga ebidensiya at testimonya lalo’t higit na ‘yung gustong idiin ay hinuhusgahan kaagad base lamang sa mga salita ng paboritong testigo. nawawala na ‘yung presumption of innocence sa takbo ng kanilang imbestigasyon, eh.
although ramdam kong meron ding naging pakinabang ang mga binay sa pamamalakad nila sa makati HINDI naman maitatangging meron din silang ginawang nakakabuti sa kanilang mga nasasakupan, di ba?
maitanong din natin, BAKIT hindi ito inilabas ni mercado noong panahon ni goyang habang si binay ay pinipilit tanggalin sa city hall?
napaaga lamang ang pagpaparamdam ni binay upang kumandidatong presidente kaya biglang sumulpot itong si mercado upang ngayon pa lamang ay idiskaril ang kandidatura ng dati niyang kinakampihan.
ilan ba sa mga nakapuwestong ‘yan ang magkapagsasabi nang taas noo na sila ay hindi nakinabang sa pondo?
Kahit sino pa testigo, the evidence speaks for itself. Mas importante, may ebidensya ba? Kung wala pala e bakit pa itutuloy ang imbestigasyon? Kung ang ebidensya kagaya nung kay Mejorada na sa Wkipedia lang dinampot, yun ang walang kwenta. Pero hindi, mga Titulo ng lupa, resibo, litrato, video, tape recording, newspaper accounts, eyewtness, etc.
Siyempre hindi ilalabas ni Mercado, siya ang pinangakuang susunod na babasbasan ni Binay. Gusto mo bang magpabasbas sa binuking mo na magnanakaw? Sa Local, walang duda, tumanggap lahat iyan. Inamin na nga ni Mercado. Hindi ka naman makakapagnakaw ng malaki kung mag-isa ka lang.
Tagal nating nakipaglaban para makaraos kay Putot, tapos pababayaan natin ang sugapang magnanakaw na lumusot. Ewan ko sa iba pero ako, di payag.
