6-4-2 is already a repudiation of Gloria

Malaya’s editorial today:

Gen. Hermogenes Esperon should just keep his mouth shut. Soldiers have no role in the elections, except to vote. They cannot campaign for any candidate. And that means they cannot campaign against any candidate either.

So it is verboten for Esperon to urge “peace loving” citizens to think twice about voting for Antonio Trillanes IVbecause the latter is being endorsed by the Left. And the same prohibition on Esperon applies not only to dissuading candidates from voting for Trillanes. As a soldier he cannot ask people to vote or not to vote for any candidate, whether supported by the Left, the Center or the Right. That’s what being non-partisan means.

We can understand Esperon’s concern over the possibility of Trillanes winning a seat in the Senate. It would be a direct slap on the Armed Forces which apparently has not learned the lessons of the occupation of Oakwood by a group led by Trillanes in 2003. The AFP remains the graft-ridden and favoritism-plagued institution that Trillanes and the Magdalo group of soldiers denounced it to be.

Trillanes’ victory would also be a slap on Gloria Arroyo who has been trying to justify her cheating in the elections, worsening corruption, assaults on the independence of other branches of government, and suppression of basic rights and civil liberties in the name of fighting a purported Leftist-Rightist conspiracy to overthrow her administration.

Latest surveys put Trillanes within striking distance of the Magic 12 at Nos. 15 to 16. He has to edge out Team Unity’s Mike Defensor and overtake Genuine Opposition’s Aquilino Pimentel and TU’s Tito Sotto. A last-minute surge of voters’ outrage might just give him the needed boost to vault over his closest rivals.

A look at the complexion of the possible winners’ circle will show the vulnerability of Migz Zubiri and Gringo Honasan (tied at Nos. 9 and 10), Edgardo Angara (No. 11) and Joker Arroyo (No. 12). Of the four, only Honasan is not identified with Gloria. This despite recent speculations his release on bail has the blessings of Malacañang.

Gloria’s support is clearly a kiss of death. Angara and Sotto, who were at the top 5 of early surveys when their “treachery” to the opposition had yet to sink in people’s consciousness, are probably now ruing their decision to throw their lot with Gloria.

The 6-4-2 survey results in favor of the opposition is already a repudiation of Gloria. There is no one in the likely winners’ circle, save for Zubiri, who can honestly say he owes his place to her.

But as the saying goes, “mahirap magsalita ng tapos.” Gloria’s cheating machinery is in place. Anything can happen on Monday.

    Team Unity spokesman is boasting 12-0 sweep for Gloria’s TUTA in Mindanao Island. This will happen only with massive systematic electoral fraud. Pre-fabricated election returns are all over the place. Malacanang’s so-called “command votes” is equals to cheating.

    Delivery of ballots questioned

    BY SERGE C. SANTILLAN

    BACOLOD City – Atty. Fernando Belleza, legal counsel of Lakas-CMD party, filed a complaint with the Commission on Elections (Comelec) questioning the time and manner the official ballots were delivered to Bacolod City.

    In a letter, Belleza asked Bacolod Comelec Officer Mavil Majarucon why Lakas was “misled” on the exact details of the arrival of the ballots and why the 65 sets of official ballots, out of the 110 sets that were unloaded at the Philippine Airlines cargo office, were “diverted” to a warehouse at Bredco at the reclamation area.

    Belleza asked what happened to the remaining 45 sets of official ballots which they presumed were unloaded at the Provincial Comelec Office.

    “There was no official from Comelec Manila who accompanied the materials and oversaw its delivery to the Provincial Comelec,” complaintant added.

    Majarucon clarified that the delivery of the official ballots is the accountability of the City or Provincial Treasurer and the Comelec has nothing to do with it.

    “I have no idea when was exact time the ballots would be delivered,” Majarucon said.
    An official of the company owning the warehouse, she said, informed her that they will deliver the official ballots Wednesday evening but they could determine the exact time.

    It was not true also that no Comelec representative accompanied during the delivery, Majarucon added.

    “Reynaldo Cadilaria Jr. of the Accounting Department of Comelec Manila, accompanied the official ballots Wednesday,” Majarucon stressed.

    The 110 sets of official ballots were not only for Bacolod but also for Negros Occidental.
    She said the reason the ballots were brought to the warehouse at Bredco was that being accountable forms, they could not be segregated at the airport.

    The cargo was unloaded at the Bays Center and the representatives of the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) can attest that the van carrying the ballots never went near the Bacolod Comelec Office, she added.

    Why Esperon and Ebdane are afraid with Trillanes? Why they are Bullies? The answers is an equilibrium in which they are both most skillful liars, and for such reason they are not both virtuous which is the most important lesson that’s been taught in the military academy, Their aggressive personality are someone who has trained themselves to behave in a certain way to be a bully, they pick a fight with Trillanes who doesn’t treat them both with adequate respect and deference. In short, Esperon and Ebdane are losing strategy on how to stop a roaring eagle ready to fight and the odds against them will result in a deadly blow, Trillanes stakes is worth the cost of a fight.

    Lacson was right that PMAer are brotherhood, they are Mistah. These two cheater generals are unwittingly didn’t care about their fellow soldiers. they may have cared about the soldiers at an earlier time, but not now. Because the soldiers expect comrades in arms to care about each other, These two Idiots forgetfulness, greed and power thirsty offended soldiers ethics. Esperon’s experienced in early financial inadequacies, he avail himself on every prudent opportunity of personal gain.

    Esperon and Ebdane were both guilty and the main player on “Hello Garci”They don’t want Trillanes to win, he was been marked as the “Black Sheep” who hold the key to the “Tower of Babel” they want to subdue him.

    Diego;
    Team Unity boasting on 12-0 only happen in Fantasy Island.

  7. Huwag na kayong mag-aksaya ng boto sa kahit na sinong TU bet. I know the children in Fr. Cullen’s care are not getting any benefit from Magsaysay in Subic. A piece of land owned by the government is in fact being contested between this Magsaysay and those children.

    I won’t vote for Pangilinan likewise for his sin against the Filipino people. His mea culpa now is not enough. People should not bring back this crook to the Senate. He could not even work better for the benefit of his Alma Mater let alone the people of the Philippines. He is working only for himself! So, please do not give me the crap that he has proved he has principle, etc. just because he does not join either TU or GO even when at this end, he conceeds that the GO has something worth fighting for—the eradication of graft and corruption.

    Hindi naman mahirap malaman kung sinu-sino ang matino lalo na kung wala namang personal na interest in this election. Best thing to do is fast and pray for guidance. Amazingly, people who have real faith in God know whom they should vote, based on platform, commitment and courage to uphold what is right and godly and this is why I like Trillanes, Cayetano and Koko Pimentel.

    I will vote straight United Opposition especially those who have proved themselves worthy, hanging on there despite the attempts to malign them by the power that be. For the slot vacated, I give it to Martin Bautista, not really because he is distant relative of my mother but because he, too, must have faith, commitment and courage.

    Huwag na kayong mag-aksaya ng boto kahit kanino doon sa TU who have been instructed to abolish the Senate if they succeed getting to the Senate. So what the heck and why vote for them still? Kundi iyan panloloko, ano iyan?

    Kaya iyong mga lider ng INC, El Shaddai at kung anu-ano pang kulto diyan, I don’t know where they are getting their inspiration endorsing their members to vote for those crooks running for the Senate in TU. Huwag na iyong pambabae ng mga ini-endorse nila kundi doon sa pagnanais ng mga loko na buwagin ang Senado kung manalo sila sa utos ng amo nilang ang pambayad sa kanila ay manggagaling pa sigurado sa pagdidispatsa ng mga patrimonia ng Pilipinas sa Japan na bayad buwis sa mga dugong umagos ng mga bayani noon WWII. Saan napunta ang pagka-maka-Diyos kuno ng mga lider ng mga simbahan na ito? I wonder!

    I just read a Newsweek article on how tiyanak is going to cheat this time. They will operate in the tiyanak friendly provinces. They will bribe the opposition watchers so when the names are called out, the watcher will just be blind and deaf. They are going to bribe teachers with the promise that they will be given relief in their loans as well as other money rewards. Since most of our teachers are really in dire need of money, they can succumb to this. There are around 20 provinces that are tiyanak friendly, this is where they will try to pad around 100000 votes per province and this will produce two million votes. According to the interviewed informer, they will not try to touch the top 5 candidates as they are leading in the polls but they will work on the bottom seven or eight candidates. This really makes me so sick! How can there be poll watchers who will sell their integrity? I hope that the opposition is aware of this. I hope too that in the provinces where the opposition is strong, they should gu

    I hope too that in the provinces where the opposition is strong that they should assist all the voters, provide transportation if needed, to make sure that everyone votes so that even if the cheating happens in tiyanak’s turf, the volume of the votes in the opposition strong provinces will carry the opposition candidates to victory. It is so sickening but realities are realities. We have to guard all our votes! Voters beware! The cheats are very much in active operations!

    The foremost scenario that I am waiting to see is the last two senatorial slots, that will be the battlefield of the most greed and corrupt such as the likes of Joker Arroyo, Mike Defensor, Posporo Pechay, Soto, Oreta, Angara, Honasan and maybe,Victor Wood, “Release Me” was the theme song of the first couple. These TU losers will have a deadly big guns draw because none of these individual are willing to give way,and the Comelec will come uneasy,No Buddy-Buddy,except Monie-Monie!Highest bidder and they are all willing to pay.The Comelec commissioners will break-in their New BMW and MBZ along Diosdado Macapagal the most expensive highway.

    Kaya pala nawala ang previous post ko, nagsabay siguro tayo nag-submit Cocoy. Anyway, sana naman itong mga oposisyon ay pipili ng watchers na hindi bantay salakay. Yung hindi madaling matapalan ng pera o matakot. Gumastos na rin lang sila sa kanilang kampanya ng malaking pera, ituloy tuloy na nila sa pagkuha ng mga mahuhusay na watchers. Hindi lang isa o dalawa sa bawat booth kundi dalawa o tatlo. Yung mga hindi magkakakilala para may check and balance. Kailangan din na lahat ng watchers ay magiinitial sa bawat boto para masabing lahat ng watchers ay nakita yung balota. Lahat din ng watchers ay pipirma din sa official tally para may credibilidad yung tally. Lalo na sa mga distrito na walang tumatakbong kandidato and oposisyon, dapat mahigpit ang bantay sa mga boto.

As far as I know, pag humupa na raw ang power ng lapad sa kanilang katawan, doon namamayani ang power ng mga Misis nila! Tingnan lang natin kung kaninong power ang mananalo sa June 14! But it’s true,na ang dapat bantayang mabuti ng poll watchers lalo na sa counting of votes yung mga nag-aanounce ng boto ang saka yung mga nagre-record! Marami sa kanila ang nagiging “bingi at bulag” basta may monie behind it.
    Sa Tacurong city, if I’m not mistaken, Sunday afternoon pa lang magsisimula ng magdistribute ng pera ang mga baranggay heads sa mga tao. Noong 2004, lantaran yung paggawa nila…sa bakuran lang, sa ilalim ng punong niyog!

    Elections only remind us of our hopelessness–RP’s poorest

    By Jim Gomez
    Associated Press

    MANILA, Philippines–Even as the campaign battle cry of fighting poverty can be heard throughout the Philippines, housewife Florentina Salvador says no candidate has set foot on the reeking garbage dump that she mines for salvageable junk.

    She didn’t expect anyone to visit the fly-infested seaside dump–fittingly called “Aroma”–to dirty their shoes and witness the squalor. At 50, she has seen so many campaign promises broken that she knows better than to have any hope as midterm elections loom Monday.

    “They come and go but our lives have not changed,” she said of aspiring politicians.

    “We’re still living off this garbage. People stay away because we smell,” said Salvador, who wrapped her head with a grimy shirt topped with a cap to fend off the scorching sun.

    Manila’s shantytowns rarely see well-heeled politicians, except during election campaigns, when the slums become crucial battlegrounds for votes, as most of the Southeast Asian nation’s 45 million registered voters are poor.

    Candidates make a beeline to poverty-wracked neighborhoods with plenty of promises and dole out shirts, caps, snacks, insurance coverage and cash–despite a ban on political gifts.

    In the media ads of Congressman Prospero Pichay, now running for the Senate, poor people are quoted as saying they dream of being able to afford medicine, their own homes, to earn a decent living, to which he replies: “My dream is to fulfill your dreams.”

    They’ve heard it all before.(………..)

    All but 10 of the 236 members of the last House of Representatives were local millionaires, according to congressional records. Many powerful families, which have dominated politics for more than a half-century, are running for office.

    http://www.inquirer.net/breakingnews/infotech/view_article.php?article_id=65513

    It’s tragic that when the rich run for office, they do so in the name of the poor, said the Rev. Adriano Carazzolo, an Italian Roman Catholic priest of a church near Aroma.

    “They use the poor,” he said. “Their most urgent need is survival, so if you give them P300 (about US$6), they’ll go with you.”

  20. cocoy cocoy

    Prospero Pechay—My dream is to fulfill your dreams––is an impossible dream.
    He is Mr. Big Spender, Mr Arrogant, Mr. Brown Nose, Mr. Sure and Mr. YU-SO.
    The money he spent on his TV ads can buy 3 meals for 45 millions poor voters.
    How can he fulfill their dreams? He was a pechay in full bloom and a promise of an unborn fetus in the womb.

    Mr. Big Spender don’t count on the command votes, those provincial, municipal and barangay officials that promise to deliver Team Unity have already had an abortion and they are in the process of severe bleeding. Now, Dr. Kavorkian “The Widow maker”is assisting them with fatal dosages.

Really a prostituted (to borrow Olivares’term) Army, said it without batting his eyelasshes! I could only say in disbelief, “Poor Pilipinos, Poor Country!”
    On the senatoriables were Singson, Pangilinan angAlan Cayetano. And the discussion was on Corruption. As usual, the more vocal and down to earth one was Cayetano. He was also most credible on issues unlike Singson who could hardly speak out. Singson said, dapat daw taasan pa ang mga salaries ng mga saaid officials para hindi maging corrupt. (Di dagdagan pa ang pork barrel…ganun?) Pangiliinan agreed with Cayetano although hindi siya straight tulad ng isa. I don’t know but I have this feeling, na Pangilinan is only after his own welfare and not the public. As if he’s hiding something …one has the impression, GO or TU ba talaga siya? Tama yung isang senador, when he said, ang nag-neu-neutral ay mga DUWAG!

    Elvira;
    Senators in the Philippines are number one highest paid solons in the world. They are making more than six hundred thousand pesos a day about $11,000 plus and tax-free.Baka gusto ni Singson na gawing isang milyon or$19,900 a day. They are draining our treasure.

    Elvira;
    This is the reason I am reluctant to vote for a candidate named Bautista who is a doctor here in America,Doctors here are very seldom to make $1,000 a day and they need to pay tax.
    I can read his intention why he is running for senator in the Philippines and he is still young.If he is already retired,I might agree with his intention.

    MANILA, Philippines–Several towns in Cagayan and Lanao del Sur provinces have shown large increases in the number of registered voters from the last elections in 2004 to this year’s exercise.

    A comparison of data from the Commission on Elections, posted on INQUIRER.net’s Eleksyon 2007 map, shows that some towns have more than doubled their number of registered voters.

The Comelec has to explain how it happened. ANO BA ANG SILBI NG COMELEC. NANDIYAN BA SILA TALAGA PARA SA MALINIS NA DAYAAN AT HINDI SA MALINIS NA HALALAN? Pagkatapos ng eleksyion ay dapat na magkaroon ng panibagong voters registration at ibasura na ang luma. Let us start form the scratch. At iyun ang ipasok sa database.

    MANILA, Philippines — Malacañang may have paved the way for the conduct of peaceful elections in Leyte long before the first votes are cast.

    As early as February, lawyer Ferdinand Martin Romualdez, who is running for representative in the first district in a coalition with reelectionist Gov. Carlos Jericho Petilla, and former Rep. Alfred Romualdez Jr., who is seeking the Tacloban City mayoral seat, were said to have been assured by President Macapagal-Arroyo herself that they would win.

    Certainly, all will not be able to make it to the magic 12 but I’ll still go for G.O. plus one from Kapatiran.

    To all oppositionists:

    STRAIGHT G.O. will BOOST their chances and will DISPLACE bets from the dark side. Because of the unpopularity of the Kapatiran bets, voting the three of them will not pull down the lagging candidates from t.u.t.a. but instead prop them (the t.u.t.a. tail-enders) up.

    Please remember those who are in the top 25 positions (Pulse and SWS stats):

    a. 11 t.u.t.a.s (minus Kiram) + 1 Indie (who had a meeting with gloria) = 12 dark forces
    b. 11 G.O. + 1 Indie (Mr. Noted who asked gloria to resign) = 12 bright forces
    c. The other Indie (the actor), judging from his skin color, will probably lean to the dark side.

    So, 11 G.O. + 1 Indie + 3 Kapatirans who are not in the top 25 (a diluted 15 bright forces) will divide the votes and will NOT displace the dark forces (13, all of whom are in the top 25).

    Mr. Noted no longer needs my vote (as some in the pro-admin and the middle forces, Sharonians included, will vote for him) and so I will give the last vote to Dr. Martin Bautista. Besides, this will enhance Doc Martin’s mettle to run in the next race if May 14 will not be a humbling day for him.

    Please Vote Straight G.O., WALANG LAGLAGAN!!!

    If we can show that we are desperate of getting rid of her through this exercise, let’s do it! If we fail, the next time will be a hell for her or for us!

    Let’s GO Trillanes!

  38. Am not entirely enamoured of Trillanes but if it takes his victory to slap Gloria big time, then I’m all for his winning…

    Una mong isipin kabayan ay kung meron ba nagawa para sa bayan at para sa maliliit na mamamayan ang mga taong iboboto mo. Kung wala bakit mo sya iboboto. Mabuti pang iboto natin yong naguumpisa pa lang kesa naging senador na pero wala ni katiting na nagawa sa bayan, hindi naipagtanggol ang mga karapatan ng maliliit na mamamayan. Si Angara for example ano ba nagawa nyan sa bayan? Siguro meron din pero hindi sa bayan. Si Mr. Noted Pangilinan, mangilin ka na lang sa eleksyon–sabi nga nya ginagawa daw lang nya yong trabaho nya kaya sya nagsabi ng “Noted”. Ang trabaho mo noon ay hindi para sa mamamayan kundi para lang kay Gloria na amo mo, TUta!tignan nyo mabuti klung sino ba ang nagpapahirap sa bayan—mga taga TU(ta). Si Sotto/Oreta mga tao na walang kabuhay-buhay, mga balimbing!Pwe!
    Heto mga kabababayan ang mga tao na nakipaglaban at makikipaglaban para sa bayan at may paninindigan, kaya iboto nyo at ipagtatanggol kayo:
    1. Trillanes
    2. Lacson
    3. Escudero
    4. Cayetano
    5. Legarda
    6. Pimentel
    7. Aquino
    8. Rocco
    9. Villar
    10.Bautista
    11.Paredes
    12.Sison
    iboto nyo at hindi kayo mabibigo, salamat po!

    hindi pa updated yung info ng Uniffors re: disqualification case ni Juju Cayetano. ang pinakahuli, as of May 12, 2007 8:30 PM, binawi na naman ng CoMeLec ang napabalita kahapon at BIBILANGIN PA DAW NILA ANG BOTO NG PAREHONG CAYETANO HABANG WALA PANG DESISYON ang Korte Suprema sa isyu !!

    Manhid lang ang ayaw umamin na malinaw pa sa sikat ng araw na ito ay PAMBABABOY na naman sa electoral exercise !!

    ============

    sa lahat:

    yung post ni Ellen re: 6-4-2 combination ay resulta ng survey nuong nakaraang May 2~4, panahon na wala pang lumabas na TV ads si Trillanes.

    for the last 4 days, maganda ang pagtanggap ng mga tao sa kanyang mga paliwanag via TV political ads. lalo na at endorsado siya nina Erap at Bishop Julio Labayen (isang respetadong may-akda at manunulat).

    namangha din ako sa sagot ng tanungin ko ang isang youth leader ng isang Kabataang Barangay Federation ng aming lalawigan (samahan ng KB chairperson ng ibat-ibang barangay ng isang congressional district), na ang sabi, “…kahit walang TV ads si Trillanes, kinakampanya namin siya…”

    ang pinakamagandang resulta ng nasabing TV ads, ay ang pagbigay ayuda sa kanyang NAME-RECALL, at pinag-uusapan siya lalo.

    in 30 minutes time, opisyal na magtatapos na ang kampanyahan, at bukas, Linggo, pahinga ang lahat sa pangangampanya, pero may mga last-minute meetings siyempre na mangyayari among supporters.

    hindi malayong mangyari na ang 6-4-2 na naunang napabalita ay magiging, 9-2-1 (9 para sa GO, 2 sa TU, 1 na independent), dahil sa ibat-ibang endorsements ng mga grassroots level na organisasyon.

    mabuhay kayo!

    friends:

    btw, narito ang opisyal na mnemonic ng UNO/GO para sa pagka-senador:

    P L A N Co R E V O L T !!

    P = Pimentel
    L = Legarda
    A = Alan Cayetano
    N = Noynoy Aquino

    Co = Coseteng

    R = Roco
    E = Escudero
    V = Villar
    O = Osmena
    L = Lacson
    T = Trillanes

    P L A N Co R E V O L T !!

    and, you may consider Baycas endorsement for Bautista, Martin M.D., to make it:

    PLAN Co REVOLT, Bau…(as in bow :)…)

    Salamat, zen2.

    —–

    Mahirap talaga kung ang unang tanong ay hanggang ngayo’y di pa nasasagot: KAY GLORIA KA BA O HINDI?

    Kung HINDI ka para kay gloria, bumoto ka ng mga kandidatong LABAN kay gloria. Siyempre, ‘yung may laban, ‘ika nga. Ang buong lupon ng G.O. (11) ang mas mainam dahil kasali ang lahat sa kanila sa nauunang dalawampu’t lima (sa mga survey). Huwag nang haluan pa ng maaaring hahaltak pababa sa iilan nilang kasama – gaya ng pagboto sa buong grupo ng Kapatiran.

    Batay sa pagsusuri ng Pulse Asia at SWS mula Pebrero hanggang Mayo, sina Pimentel (#14), Trillanes (#15), at Roco (#17) ay nahuhuli. Kapag ibinoto mo ang tatlong Kapatiran, may aangat na 2 t.u.t.a. sa 2 G.O. na malalaglag.

    Buti sana kung ang lahat ng boboto sa tatlong Kapatiran ay ilalaglag sina Osmeña at Coseteng…okey lang. Pero paano kung sina Pimentel at Alan Cayetano (dahil sa dynasty) ang ilaglag? O kaya naman si Trillanes (dahil nakakulong) at si Roco (dahil sa mga autistic)? O kaya naman ilaglag sina Legarda at Villar (dahil galit sa “Number One”)? May aangat na t.u.t.a. sa malalaglag na G.O.

    Sa mga taga-oposisyon, ISA lamang sa Kapatiran ang maaaring iboto. Sana naman po, huwag nang banlawan ang puro…IBOTO Buong Lupon ng G.O. (11)…at isang napupusuang oposisyon.

    Baycas,

    Hindi pa ako nakakaboto, I’ll take your advice. Sa totoo lang, ito lang taon na ito ako nagparehistro (I’m out of Pinas, matagal na) just to participate in kicking out Blinky Tianak!

    Pero number sa ballot ko si Trillanes para mabasa na una. 🙂

  44. Baycas:

    OK pa rin ang 10 GO + 2 Kapatiran, basta walang TU, maski na iyong Magsaysay!

  45. chi chi

    Yuko,

    Ganun din ba ang labas? I’m not so knowledgeable about this “hatakan” pataas-pababa.

  46. baycas baycas

    Mahirap sabihin…depende ‘yan sa ibabawas mo sa G.O. tiket. Kung 10 lang + 2, sigurado kasing may nalaglag nang isa. Kung sino ‘yon, di natin malalaman…lalo na kung iba’t-ibang kandidato ng G.O. ang ibinawas.

    Ako’y naniniguro lang…11 + 1 pa rin ako. Bakit ipapalit ang alam nating walang laban sa isang kandidatong nasa top 25? Posibleng makalaglag nang kung sino sa G.O. ang kapalit na isang Kapatiran.

    Isa sa Kapatiran lang ang maaaring idagdag, tapos buo ang G.O. na maaaring makadiskarel sa mga t.u.t.a. Tiyak kasing may papasok pa ring t.u.t.a. sa magic 12, ang kagandahan lang sa 11 + 1 hindi napunta ang boto sa walang kabuluhan.

    bagama’t hindi ko masusunod ang personal kong damdamin dahil sa husay ng lohika ng paliwanag ni Baycas; nagpapasalamat ako sa palitan naganap at nagbunga ng mahalagang punto—-ang konsepto ng kapit-bisig at sakripisyo.

    personal na sakripisyo para isantabi yung dikta ng damdamin at yakapin ng buo ang esensya ng samahan para maisakatuparan ang hangaring HARANGIN at bigyan ng TULDOK ang pambababoy sa mga simbolo ng nagkakaisa at nagpupunyaging bagong Pinoy.

    kahit na anong pagbabaligtad ang ginawa ko, hindi ko malusutan ang argumentong kapag meron ilalaglag na kasapi ng GO, may lulusot naman na TUTA !!

    at mauuwi sa anggulong choosing the lesser evil…masakit, pero gagawin ko.

    isa pang realisasyon: ang halalan ay meron ding kalakip na kahinaan bilang isang paraan ng pagkamit ng pagbabago; obligado ang kasali na damputin ang isang kumpol kahit merong halong basag o bilasa, dahil ang natitirang pagpipilian ay kundi durog, bulok at may-uod naman.

    dahil dito, 2 bagay ang ating pupuntahan— muling tanggapin ang kakulang at magsawalang kibo, o kilalanin na ang halalan ay ISA lamang sa ILAN pang daan para mamuno muli ang sagisag ng isang maunlad na bayan, sambayanan, at pamayanan.

    tulad ng pagyurak sa simbolo ng isang matibay na sandatahan, ang mga alagad at ang pekeng pangulo mismo, kaliwa’t kanan ang pagbibigay ng Medal of Valor sa mga personal na bodyguard——nagdulot ng pagkawala ng esensya at kahulugan ng isang medalya;

    tulad ng sa pagdukot sa punong-puno ng pag-asa anak ng yumaong Joe Burgos, na simbolo at ilaw ng maraming manunulat at mambabalita, BINURA na ng tuluyan ng mga utusan o ng mga taong hangad maging isang taga-pagsilbi ng Pangulo (taliwas na pagsilbihan ang sambayanan), ang kahulugan at esensya ng sakripisyo, ng pag-aalay ng buhay ng mga taong nauna sa atin para makabuo ng pamayanang kumikilala sa kahalagahan ng isang malayang lipunan;

    ang halalang darating, ay magbibigay sa atin ng susi sa isang munting pintuan maaring magbibigay ng pag-asang manumbalik ang kahalagahan ng SIMBOLISMO; ang kahulugan ng medalya, ang kahulugan ng mga yumaong manunulat at mambabalita sa kabuuang konteksto ng isang lipunang matibay at kumikilala sa importansya ng buhay, dignidad at karangalan ng tao.

    isantabi pansamantala ang alinlangan, IBOTO ang GO Straight at WALANG laglagan !

    P L A N Co R E V O L T , Bau !!
