I LOVE THIS ONE! DARN, DARN…MY CHINESE DOLL MAKER HAS GONE OFF WITH A DIFFERENT DRAWING… I’LL SEE IF HE CAN CHANGE IT STILL.

No, not Master Gloda, please. To parody the Star Wars Master of Goodness is unfair and an injustice even when the Tiyanak is short like the Star Wars Master, who is the embodiment of goodness and wisdom. The Tiyanak tenant of the palace by the murky river embodiment of all things evil and mediocrity.
You should have thought of the miniaturized Master of Dath Vader! :-p
a de brux
Oh is that so?
Never ever saw Star Wars but you’re right, I’ve seen this image somewhere before.
We are going through an interesting process in our coming up with a GMA doll. We might yet come up with the one that fits the cheat/liar/thief/ in Malacañang.
Keep the drawings coming.

basta dapat cute ang doll, not scary or mean-looking.

Ellen,
Did you receive the idea of another doll (by a Norwegian).
Mali para ikumpara kay Master Gloda si Master Magnanakaw. Puwede pang ang picture ni Satanas ang ilagay at ipalit ang mukha ni Kumander Cheat-A. Or ang mukha ni Hudas.

Ellen, DJB has gone trekking for a week. When you went on leave for a week he appealed to us to give you a 100-post thread and we did. Can we do that for him also?
To ystakei, salamat sa paliwanag mo sa book of Job. Hinanap ko yung sinasabi mo kung ano talaga si Gloria o kung sugo ba talaga siya ng Dios sa Proverbs 6-16-19. HINDI NGA! Let us share it with the other bloggers.
Prov 6:16-19
16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.
NIV
SAPOL NA SAPOL ystakei!
From the book: “Phoenix: The Saga of the Lopez Family”
Vol. 1 by Raul Rodrigo
On pp. 105 to 106:
In Iloilo in 1929, the king of jueteng was a Chinese named Luis Sane,
widely known as Sualoy. He operated with impunity; his establishments
were safe from raids; secured, it was said, by generous bribe money to
politicians and the local police.
In September 1929, Ening [Lopez] and El Tiempo began a crusade
against jueteng in Iloilo and the corruption it created in local
government. The winning number each day was printed in a box in
boldface on page one. Ening came out with one expose after another,
alleging that top politicians such as Iloilo Governor Mariano Arroyo,
Iloilo City police chief Marcelo Buenaflor and his brother Congressman
Tomas Buenaflor, had been bribed by Sualoy to turn a blind eye on
jueteng.
Ening did not choose lightweight opponents. Mariano Arroyo was the
most powerful man in the province. He was the brother of the late Jose
Arroyo, a
Nacionalista senator and good friend of Quezon. As the public’s
outrage over the corruption began to mount, Arroyo issued a statement
that jueteng did not exist in Iloilo. That it did and that local
officials benefited from it were matters of public knowledge in the
city. The question was not what needed to be done, but who had the
courage to do it. As it turned out, Ening Lopez did.
In March 1930, due to the pressure created by El Tiempo, Sualoy’s
headquarters was finally raided; not by the do-nothing local police,
but the Philippine Constabulary. Sualoy was arrested, found guilty
and jailed. He was eventually deported and died in China. With Sualoy
out, the conflict had narrowed to a match between ElTiempo and the
governor. The crusade had captured the imagination of
Iloilo and made El Tiempo the city’s leading newspaper. In August
1930, pushed against the wall, Governor Arroyo sued El Tiempo for
libel. Ening struck back by filing administrative charges against the
governor. He also called in his friend and former boss Vicente
Francisco to lead his defense against the libel charge.
As the struggle intensified, some Lopezes sensed in it some unwelcome
echoes of the political tempest that had taken the life of Ening’s
father (Benito Lopez) 22 years before. El Tiempo’s editor, Jose
Magalona, was badly beaten by a local thug who was believed to be in
the employ of the governor’s men. The older Lopezes were afraid that
as the row grew more heated, Ening might eventually share his father’s
fate.
Fortunately, news of the case had reached Manila and attracted the
attention of (American) Governor General Dwight F. Davis. Governor
Arroyo and his cohorts came under minute scrutiny. As a result of the
scandal, the Nacionalistas and Quezon began backing away from Arroyo.
When Arroyo asked Quezon to recommend to Davis that he be acquitted of
the administrative charges filed by Lopez, Quezon refused. Instead,
Davis swiftly dispatched Judge Manuel Moran (later chief justice of
the Supreme Court), to investigate the libel case. Moran established
that Arroyo and the police chief were in fact heavily involved in
illegal gambling. They even ran a gambling den as a means of
generating money for the upcoming 1931 elections. Moran concluded that
Ening and El Tiempo had not been guilty of libel.
In Arroyo’s trial on the administrative charges, even more damning
evidence against the governor came out. Pio Sian Melliza, a boyhood
friend and active supporter of the governor, testified that when he
had asked his friend to finally crack down on jueteng, the governor
told him:
Compadre, why are you so determined to get rid of jueteng gambling?
Isn’t it clear to you that most of the jueteng runners and sellers are
our own political ward leaders? The elections are nearing, and I am
running for re-election. Not including the money they are giving us
for election expenses, they can hurt us in this election, because
there are many of these jueteng runners in this province.
On October 7, 1930, Governor General Dwight F. Davis ordered Governor
Mariano Arroyo relieved of his post for corruption. Timoteo Consing,
a friend of Ening, was named as his replacement. Iloilo Mayor Eulogio
Garganera and Marcelo Buenaflor were suspended. The ex-governor staged
a protest rally and attempted to make a political comeback, but his
disgrace had been marked and he sank into obscurity.
Now, a postscript to history —
Don Mariano Arroyo, the disgraced governor of Iloilo who was
dismissed by the American governor-general for being a jueteng
protector and coddler, had a brother, Jose Arroyo y Pidal. He is the
grandfather of Atty. Jose Miguel Arroyo y Tuason, the so-called First
Gentleman, being the husband of the President of the Republic, Gloria
Macapagal Arroyo. Jose Miguel, whose nickname is Mike, has a younger
brother, Jose Ignacio Arroyo, who is now a congressman of Negros
Occidental.
Or are you referring to the GMA salbahe doll? But I don’t see any resemblance to Gloria Arroyo’s features. Okay I’ll post it for comments from our fellow bloggers.
ellen, i havent finished gloria’s hairdo and blue dress in my doll, wala pang damit eh, pero mas maganda yata. parang humiliated naman pag walang damit. pag natapos ko, ipapadala ko. kung isa sa bawat pilipinong galit kay gloria ay gagawa, baka mapasok pa tayo sa guiness book of records. 🙂
pwede na siguro kahit ganito lang, minus gwb head: http://billmon.org/archives/000479.html
Juanito, i checked out the above website. okay yun.Gloria’s face and maybe we could replace some of the words in the outfit with her sins: cheating , lying, stealing,hello garci, fertilizer scam,marcos billions, etc. etc.
Dapat may sugay at buntot di ba..maniwala ba tayong Pinoy na si Gloria ay sugo ng Diyos..actually she mocked God.Those who say that is mentally ill and must be in mental hospital not in Malacanang, are being kind to her.
May these verses from the Bible pierce her heart and conscience as well as that of her alipores: Philippians 2:3 ” Do not be deceived:God cannot be mocked. you will always reap what you sow! Hebrew 4:13 ” Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eye of Him to whom we must give account.
What really saddened me was her telling the whole world that she is the best person to lead our country. very stupid !She’s living in a world of make-believe. She is a liar, a cheat and a thief.
Freedom of press blatantly suppress is more worst than Marcos. A free press is the essence of democracy. Only in Philippines happened under the regime of Arroyo.

Ellen the face of the Norweigian doll I sent you must be changed pero the eyes should be similar to original (cross-eyed) and the teeth should be coming out like in the original.
Someone must help me change the face of the Norwegian doll into a Gloria-face or a Gloria look-alike (can’t do it on my comp coz I don’t know how to do it). Thanks.
