Hindi magandang ideya ni Erap

Ano ba naman ito si Erap at iniimbitahan si Noli de Castro sumali sa oposisyon at maari raw siya ang magiging kandidato ng oposisyon sa pagkapresident sa 2010.

Sana panakot lang ni Estrada ito sa mga taga oposisyon na gustong kumandidato sa 2010 para sila ay magkasundo na isa lang ang kakandito.

Kung nagbibiro si Estrada, hindi magandang biro yun. At nakakasama sa kanya. Ibig sabihin noon siya mismo walang pagpahalaga sa katotohanan at hustisya. Paano mo naman tatanggapin ang isang taong kumapi kay Gloria kahit nabulgar na ang kanyang pandaraya noong 2004 na eleksyon ay panggigipit sa taumbayan.

Marami naman mapagpilian sa oposisyon bakit pa niya imbitahan si De Castro. Ngayon pa lang , dalawang taon bago 2010, pumupwesto na ang mga may ambisyon na magiging presidente. Lahat siguro sila naniniwala sa kasabihan, “The early bird catches the worm”.

Si Sen. Mar Roxas, mukhang sigurado na siya bilang kandidato ng Liberal party. Kahit si Environment Secretary Lito Atienza na hindi kasundo ni dating Senate President Franklin Drilon at kumampi kay Gloria Arroyo noong 2004, ay walang tutol kay Mar. Nilalakad pa nga niya na magiging administration candidate si Mar. Sabi niya kay Mar, “Kailanganin mo ang pera at organisasyon ng administrasyon.” Siyempre pera ng tao yun.

Ngunit may mga nagsasabi rin ay Mar na huwag siyang pumayag madungisan ni Arroyo.

Sa Nacionalista party naman, si Senate President Manuel Villa rang pambato. Ang problema naman kay Villar ay magkakaibigan sila ni de Castro na siyang maaring kandidato ng administrasyon. Kailangan ayusin ni Villar si de Castro.

Si Sen. Ping Lacson ay nagsasabing interesado pa rin siyang tumakbong presidente kahit natalo na siya noong 2004.

Pumasok na naman ngayon si dating Pangulong Estrada na sinabing kung hindi raw magkaisa ang oposisyon baka tumakbo na rin siya. May mga nagsasabi na hindi na maaring tumakbo si Estrada ngunit may mga nagsasabi na dahil sa hindi niya natapos ang kanyang anim na taon, pwede pa siya.

Hindi ko maintindihan ang laro ni Estrada. May mga nagsasabi na gusto lang niyang siguraduhin na magiging bise-presidente ang kanyang anak na si Sen. Jinggoy Estrada sa 2004.

Sa akin, dapat si Estrada ay mag-adviser na lang. Huwag na siyang bumalik sa pagka-presidente. Binigyan na siya ng sambayanan ng pagkakataon. Pinalpak naman niya. Kung ano man ang natutunan niya sa kayang maikling pag-upo sa Malacañang, gamitin na lang niya sa pagadvise sa bagong presidente. Ipaubaya na niya ang bayan sa mga nakakabata.

Sa admininistrasyon naman, maliban kay De Castro, sinabi na ni Sen. Richard Gordon na pwede siya. Ganun rin si Bayani Fernando ng Metro Manila Development Authority.

Pinagtatawanan ng Malacañang ang oposisyon dahil malamang maghati-hati ang boto, panalo ang manok nila. Kung hindi man manalo, madali silang mandaya katulad noong 2004. Malamang mangyari ito.
Maari rin naman na isa sa mga oposisyon ngayon ang lilipat sa administrasyon. Hawak ni Arroyo ang pera ng bayan. Kaya niya bilhin ang maaring bilhin. Siyempre ang kapalit noon hindi kakasuhan si Arroyo ng plunder. Kaya tuloy ang maliligayang araw niya kasama ng kanyang pamilya.

Kaya lang e, may eleksyon ba sa 2010? Siyempre hindi pa naggi-give up si Arroyo at ang kanyang mga alagad sa cha-cha.

Ang kabutihan lang sa maagang organisasyon para sa 2010 ay, kapag biglang ipasok ang cha-cha at sabihing walang eleksyon, magwawala ang taumbayan. Tingnan natin kung ano ang gagawin ni Arroyo.

  1. Panggulo na iyang si Erap at hindi na Pangulo… Bakit ba di na lang siya tumahimik at pursue na lang niya ang kanyang pro-mahirap programme?

  2. balweg balweg

    AdeBrux,

    Misquoted lang po si Pres. Erap about this news. Possibly ang nabasa mong newspaper eh anti-Erap?

    Pls. refer to this below quoted news released by The Daily Tribune:

  3. Isagani Isagani

    Naman, si erap pa! E, nasa ending na ang script ng pelikula niya. Ng magtagumpay ang inaping bida – muling nilukluk sa trono ng kapangyarihang na tunay na sa kanya.

    At sa umaatikabong na hiyaw at palakpakan ng kanyang mga tangahanga, matagumpay niyang nilunod ang naghihirap na sambayanan.

    Of course, unwittingly!

  4. Disappointed OFW Disappointed OFW

    Gusto nilang i push si noli para gawing “dummy president” para sila ang magpapa takbo ng bansa. kasi pag si noli kaya nila itong paikutin sa palad nila.kaya wag na tayong magpa uto. baka tuluyan ng hindi makabangon ang Pilipinas pag si Noli ang naging presidente natin tapos pa partneran pa ni Jinggoy. Naku naman po! mahabag tayo sa ating bayan. Ngayon palang maging matalino na tayo pag aralan natin ang motibo ng mga gustong kumandidato kung para ba talaga sa bayan o pang sarili lamang. Dito sa taiwan nag uusap na kami walang remittance sa mga pamilya namin pag hindi tamang kandidato ang iboboto nila.hehehe!pag sila ang naupo sa malacanang baka tuluyan na kaming hindi maka uwi ng pinas sa hirap ng buhay.

    Bluff…that’s all I can say and describe Erap’s current behavior. Don’t forget he’s both a movie actor and politician…two professions that require super acting. Puwede nga natin tawagin siyang Panggulo…but let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. Bakit niya ginagawa ito? I’m sure it’s not to confuse the opposition…but the enemy. Hindi naman siya sira ulo na kukunin si Noli. Not when the person he stole of her vice-presidency is still very much with the opposition and with Erap. Kung si Loren hindi kumibo, tayo pa? Politics itself is full of mysteries…you can say dirty. Today they are on your side, tomorrow no more. There are no permanent friends and enemies in politics; only permanent interests. Let’s continue to trust Erap. I for one can assure you that he is always with the opposition and loves the masses. Whatever he does and says these days, don’t take them seriously. It’s like playing chess and poker. Hindi alam ng kalaban ang tunay na baraha ni Erap.

  6. Brownberry Brownberry

    At tignan niyo ang sagot at reaction ni Noli…excited. Kilig to the bones…at gusto daw makausap si Erap. Siguro sa loob ni Erap ang natatawang sabi niya sa sarili: Ha, ha…tanga talaga itong si Kabayan. Ano siya sinusuwerte?

  7. Brownberry Brownberry

    Moreover, as they say politics is addition. Trick o gimmick lang ni Erap iyan. Sakaling kumagat si Noli at tumalon sa opposition, puwedeng sabihin ni Erap: Teka muna Pare, hindi lang ako ang makakapag-decision niyan. Kailangan ng caucus at survey. Tapos iaalok sa kanya kunwari ang vice president position na siguradong hindi niya tatanggapin. Kaya saan dadamputin si Noli eh huli na…nasa opposition na siya. Don’t under estimate Erap’s ability and intelligence. Noli would be one of the last persons Erap would support. Noli was GMA’s partner in that election cheating. Noli was a party to the crime.

  8. balweg balweg

    Hi Brownberry,

    I posted my point of view earlier but still i didnt see it yet, maybe nag liwaliw sa enchanted kingdom i hope not?

    Remember, si Erap ang AMA ng MASANG PINOY, he’s still alive and kicking although ikinulong morethan 6-years eh popular pa at sikat.

    JEE is trying his best to unify the oppositions in one united group, but still some of them have owned agenda and personal ambition to reach enchanted kingdom of PGMA.

    Hoping JEE will succeed in his endevour to unify the opposition block and to put ONLY one candidate for President/VP in order to take back the Palace from the hand of corrupt PGMA regime.

    Bigyan natin ng pagkakataon si Erap to prove from his detractors that they are wrong judging him from all fabricated charges against him.

    Let’s the truth will prevail and to open the pandoras box (all shits done by PGMA and her cohorts).

  9. mami_noodles mami_noodles

    Well, off-topic po muna ako…

    Read the “Letters to the Editor” segment in Inquirer.net. Somebody said that “Under Trillanes, the Philippines could become the next Burma”.

    Ano pong masasabi ninyo?

  10. All this noise should not be taken seriously. All the jockeying in media are nothing but PR-driven noise-making stunts to make the prospective candidates visible in masses’ political radar. The bottomline, they are sure to get good numbers come survey time. That is where it will matter: the surveys.

    But I won’t suggest making an all-out effort this early. I’m a bit surprised at the new SWS survey that Villar has beaten everyone else in the “popularity contest” because such position will be very expensive and strategically, very difficult to maintain. This surge in Villar’s approval rating is unfounded. It was more a product of early campaigning in the guise of the widely advertised Nacionalista Party anniversary than satisfaction over his Senate leadership, which should have been the correct measure.

    This will also dangerously expose him to a possible Senate coup which could come anytime when the other presidentiables, whether admin or opposition, realize that they are seriously under threat of defeat from him. That could seal his political doom. He then won’t have access to the funds generous lobbyists are willing to spend in congress.

    Or Villar might just peak early and somebody else takes over where he left off.

  11. balweg balweg

    Brownberry,

    Erap’s detractors are worried about his popularity and charisma. Being Ama ng Masang Pilipino, ofcourse he has guts to lead and serve the people but the elitists composed of Business sectors, Church hierarchy, military adventurist, Tabako and co., civil society and trapo/balimbing politicians are the real enemies of our people.

    They are afraid and worried from Erap charisma and possibly he will be elected again in 2010 if those concerned oppositionist will not settle their differences and must be united against GMA forces.

  12. For me, Erap is a nothing but a has-been. He should retire from politics, and go back to movie making.

    He should start making documentaries exposing graft and corruption, etc. that may inspire Filipinos to fight back, not be contented with the creeps running their government like hell. Mas maalala pa siya ng marami kung gagawin niya iyan. We can help distribute those movies overseas if the Dorobo will not allow them to be shown in the Philippines like what she did to Eraps’s “To Live for the Masses” because it can serve as evidence of her crime in 2001 committed against the Filipino people with the help of those generals vying for her attention and dole outs.

    BTW, a group in Washington DC just published the 10 most corrupt officials in the US with Hilary Clinton leading the list. http://www.judicialwatch.org/judicial-watch-announces-list-washington-s-ten-most-wanted-corrupt-politicians-2007

    I wish there would be a similar enterprising group in the Philippines. Magandang public service.

  13. Brownberry Brownberry

    Tongue-Twisted, remember that Villar is the richest Senator. He has the money to commission any survey company in his favor. Even if I’m no fan of Loren Legarda, I think she’s been consistently on top of the rating. Paano ngayon nanguna si Villar? Ang hirap kasi sa mga ambisyosong mga pulitikong ito, ang aga magpakita ng kulay at baraha.

  14. Balweg, I discourage cutting and pasting whole articles from other publications. Please just give the link.

  15. patria adorada patria adorada

    kung sino ang makakatulong kina trillanes and co. para makalabas kaagad,siya ang iboboto ko,at may concrete plan siya to help OFW,para sa lomolobong population natin at higit sa lahat he has the real balls to fight against corruption.

  16. Brownberry Brownberry

    Hindi pa naman laos si Erap. In a fair election contest, he can beat anyone today or anytime…wala lang dayaan. But then, talagang wala nang balak iyan. Pakulo lang niya para matakot ang mga kaaway. No less than Bro. Mike Velarde has told him and FVR not to run again. Pero sino ba naman itong si Velarde na magsa-suggest ng ganoon eh hindi naman lahat ng mga miyembro niya sumusunod sa kanya. Even his son should not have been the Congressman in El Shaddai’s party-list group. I really don’t like to see party-list groups being represented by religious groups…nandiyan ang vested interest nila.

    First of all Happy New Year to all.

    Ms. Ellen, can anyone or anybody tell Pres. Erap not to get noli “kayabang” de castro as the presidentiable of the opposition. There’s a lot of reason not to tap him:

    1. He is corrupt, Mr. Clean from the outside, but dirty from the inside;
    2. His cheap (chief) of staff, will just enrich himself;
    3. look at his record at the housing sector, he is giving too much favor to a selected few, esp those from his staff at the HUDCC, pag-ibig and the other housing agencies

    That is only to name a few.

    People from his bayan production, during the magandang gabi bayan, are complaining talk to them and you will find out how corrupt this “kayabang” guy.

    prans

  18. luzviminda luzviminda

    I believe Erap is BLUFFING! But maybe he is really inviting Noli to the opposition and abandon Gloria to weaken more the already weak administration line-up. Pero ang masasabi ko, whatever Erap does, never will he forsake the Masa.

  19. Brownberry Brownberry

    Prans, we all know that about Noli. That was why he was picked by GMA to be her running mate.

  20. Valdemar Valdemar

    There are only two kinds of politicians, the ins and the outs. Party names are only brands that do not distinguish ones loyalty. The coming election has now a level playing field with automation or at least the overhead projectors this time so voter must really vote to the best of his inteligence. Even those marginalized in education could easily remember skeletons in the closets. They should know those with another woman, those who will only continue programs of their kins. They should understand that church teachings and influences are limited only to the church. And only those Filipinos with the new IDs can vote. Dapat libre yung IDs. Or instead of the ID, issue each a passport to take care of.

  21. jojovelas2005 jojovelas2005

    Erap made a mistake…nakalimutan niya ng tumakbo si Noli bilang Senador hindi man lang nagpasalamat ito…isa pa ayaw ng America kay Noli so I hope it will be Lacson. ANo kaya ang say ni Loren.

  22. Brownberry Brownberry

    Huwag kang magtaka kung hindi nagpasalamat si Noli nang nanalo siyang Senador. He thought it was his own effort and merit. Kahit na noong nandaya siya at nanalong Bise, wala din tayong narinig na “thank you” man lang. Iyan ang ugali niya. And how do you know the US doesn’t like him? Dahil ba mahina siya sa English? Kung dahil sa English, maaaring tama ka dahil ayaw din ng mga Kano kay Erap. Pero sa tutoo…the US doesn’t care how well one speaks English. Nasabi ko na noon na kahit demonyo susuportahan ng Amerika…basta sunod lang ng sunod sa kanila. Mas naniniwala ako na galit kay Noli ang mga Kastila…dahil sa Noli Me Tangere.

  23. Etnad Etnad

    Puwede bang pakiusapan ng mag-amang Estrada na please lang tumahimik na sila. Tama na.

  24. Politics is a dirty game indeed, but this is a MARATHON we’re in, not a 100M DASH. The best thing to do is to survive till the next hill where the scenario will be different and see what can be done by then. The secret is to keep at it, survive, we have a long run ahead…

  25. ace ace

    Politics is a game to almost all politicians. A game of chess, so expect some gambits, a game of poker, so expect some bluffings, a “game of the generals”, so expect some spies, a game of “snake and ladder”, so expect the first to be last and the last to be first,as the song of George Benson and Karen Carpenter tells us:

    “We’re lost inside this lonely game we play
    We’re lost in this masquerade”

  26. Estrada himself quips that if he’s going to make a comeback at all, it won’t be in politics, it will be in showbiz. Specifically to now act in comedies rather than in action movies. What can one say? He wants to be funny, he shouldn’t quit politics.

    There’s no bigger comedy than that.

  27. ellen,

    my apologies for my vulgar posts. I just cant contain my disillusionment of former Pres. Estrada.

    Sorry talaga for the harsh words.

  28. kazuki kazuki

    Well,i know some human rights violations in edsa 3 did by the administration against the poor rallyists i know one person was tortured and bribed at that time,it was not heard on the radio.

    and i think tama yung edsa2 kaso lang mali ang timing and there are lots of opportunists like FVR,who is a fascist,I think it’s better if a snap election hapened after Erap resigned

    I think what Gloria and Bush are doing is an example of state terrorism and fascism.

  29. kazuki kazuki

    i recomend watching farenheit 9/11

  30. kazuki kazuki

    Well i think erap should have stood in the interest of the people and did not allow VFA to become a reality and he should have not allowed himself to be a puppet of US.

  31. kazuki kazuki

    I mean the real purpose of edsa 2 was eliminate the trapos but what happened is that they just added another trapo,us puppet and a fascist who is worser than the previous one it happened because of edsa 2 traitors like reyes.

  32. kazuki kazuki

    and also because some opportunist trapos like gloria and reyes also joined.

    —-You should also watch “Sicko”. Etnad, hindi mo puwedeng sabihin na tumahimik na lang si Erap. Patuloy iyan mag-iingay hanggan nasa Malacanang si GMA. I don’t want him to run again but I don’t want him to stop with his activities against the GMA administration. Siya na lang yata ang medyo malakas at iginagalang na lider ng opposition, patatahimikin mo pa?

  34. BB:

    The best thing that Erap can do now really is make documentaries and exposes using the media he excels in—the movies.

    He can do similar projects to those done for instance by some independent producers in Europe making those documentaries on US crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. I have a collection in fact of documentaries they have produced, including movies for instance on the domestic helpers from Asia especially from the Philippines. Grabe! But they prove to be very effective tools in educating the ignoramuses, indifferent, etc.

    Huwag na siyang makisawsaw sa dirty politics kung wala din naman siyang magagawa para masipa si Gloria Dorobo. Mas effective iyong mga documentaries as propaganda tools versus the crooks running the Philippine government like hell presently. Produced in DVDs, puede bang lagyan ng iba’t ibang wika para maikalat din sa ibang bansa. Magandang pang-golpe de gulat pa iyan kesa yayain niya iyong isang walang sinabi kundi mangurakot din gaya ni Kayabang!

  35. Meron din akong Farenheit 9/11 and two other more documentaries Michael Moore did. He was in Tokyo 2 or 3 years ago and he talked about US war on Iraq. Bilib ako! Gayahin na lang ni Erap si Michael since anyway he has started doing such movie as the “To Live for the Masses.”

    I got permission to produce it in Japan, and have distributed more than a hundred copies of the DVDs I made to media, etc. It’s an effective tool against Gloria Dorobo that is why it is banned for showing in the Philippines at present.

  36. Erap should produce more of such movies as the “To Live for the Masses.”

    E ano ba kung i-ban ni Dorobo? They can be distributed underground, and overseas. Basta ba totoo, bakit hindi! Sabi nga, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:32)

  37. Brownberry Brownberry

    Oo nga pala ano…tama ka Yuko, bakit hindi na lang gayahin ni Erap si Michael Moore? Erap could come up with similar documentaries exposing the evil of GMA and other corrupt officials. He could also tell the people what he knows about the US and how she conspired with his enemies to oust him. Mabenta iyan hindi lang sa RP pati international. BTW, since you know lots of things (one of the most talented bloggers here), I hope you could sit down with Erap someday and help him produce such documentaries. Now that he’s a free man, I’m sure it’s easy to gain access to him. He might even visit Japan one day…

  38. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    ayan na naman si yuko akala niya sa sarili siya lang ang magaling binabalewala niya si erap subukan mo kayang lumaban ng presedente baka kamag-anak mo lang ang boboto sa iyo ako bihira akong magcomment dito pero kung ganyan ang trato mo kay erap nakakasagot ako

  39. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    sa maniwala kayo o hindi si erap ay malakas pa rin dahil totoong tao siya yang mga komokontra sa kanya mga elitista kasi lalo na siguro yang si yuko

  40. Chabeli Chabeli

    I respect those who believe in Erap. However, sa palagay ko, gagamitin lang ng desperadong Malacanan si Erap. I have this funny feeling that Malacañan has Erap’s number. They know that Erap’s aching weakness is to return to Malacañan, & maybe, if only to break up a strong Oppostion contender – whoever that may be – they will permit Erap to run !

    I don’t think that all these moves Erap is doing – visiting the poor, giving away food, etc – is to promote a movie. Erap is up to something political with the blessings of Malacañan. Erap owes Malacañan his freedom.

  41. rose rose

    mim 18: erap maybe a good president..he maybe for the masa..BUT at this stage of the game (political game) his moves may not be the way to go…napardon na siya..and didn’t he agree not to meddle in politics as a condition of his pardon? but underneath such “a good move?” mayroong personal motive..ang dami niyang mga anak at mga kamag-anak
    lalabas. Huwag na siyang magsalita..o kung magsalita man ibulong na lang niya kasi magulo..baka ang mangyari The Return of Sorrow..hindi Zorro.

  42. Brownberry Brownberry

    mlm18_corpuz, wala naman akong nabasang negative kay Erap sa sinulat ni Yuko. Constructive criticism lang naman ang kanya.
    Sang-ayon din akong huwag na siyang tumakbo at ubusin na lang niya ang mga nananatiling mga taon niya sa buhay sa pagtulong sa mga tao at opposition. What Yuko suggested was for Erap to do documentary films tulad ni Michael Moore. Agree din ako diyan. Hindi galit kay Erap si Yuko…at halos lahat tayo dito ay hindi galit kay Erap. How can we dislike a victim like Erap who was stolen of his presidency? Let’s just focus our minds and attack on this GMA. Siya lang ang kaaway natin.

  43. Brownberry Brownberry

    Rose, how can we stop Erap from speaking and expressing his opinion? He’s a free man…he got back his civil and political rights. Walang dahilan para pigilin siya kung ano man ang gusto niyang gawin. He has the same rights as any other citizen. Even if he runs again and this will result in legal argument, puwede pa rin kung gusto niya. I’ve been saying all along that Erap is no longer interested. At 70, he prefers to enjoy his life. Pautot lang niya ang kunwai’y tatakbo siya. He’s been in politics too long for us not to know that it’s all just politics. At the end of the day, ang susundin niya kung ano ang makakabuti sa kanya at kanyang pamilya…at siyempre kung ano din ang makakabuti sa bansa at taong bayan.

  44. balweg balweg

    Hi mlm18_corpuz,

    Hapi 2008 to you!

    Till now marami pa ring Pinoy di matanggap si Erap, kasi nga inggit lang sila. Erap’s destiny in this world eh makasaysayan tulad ng mga naging bayani ng iba’t ibang panahon at races.

    He is a living bayani ng ating panahon and AMA NG MASANG PILIPINO! He is till alive and kicking, but his popularity and charisma still alive and inspiration of most of our kababayang Pinoy.

    Kung si Tabako ang magaling sa military psywar, ofcourse si Erap naman eh champion naman sa charisma at pang showbiz pa.

    Abangan mo ang pagbabalik niya sa mundo ng showbiz ha!

  45. balweg balweg

    BB/Rose,

    We are talking about Erap? His legacy proved that God chose him as he is, and no question about his personal life because if we will study some of famous and popular personality like Salaudin, Hitler, Kaddafi, Bonifacio, Napoleon Bonaparte, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great and others may kanya-kanya silang papel na ginampanan sa mundo.

    Si Erap eh buhay pa eh iniidolo na ng maraming Pinoy paano pa pagtumanggap na siya ng diploma from God. Di ba ang honor before maging bayani eh pagpumanaw na, pero si Erap eh buhay pa eh bayani na at tinaguriang Ama ng Masang Pilipino.

  46. Brownberry Brownberry

    Ka Balweg, you said Erap received his diploma from God? Bilib ka talaga sa kanya ano. Pasado ba siya sa lahat ng subjects?
    Despite his drinking and womanizing, binigyan pa rin ng diploma at mula pa sa Diyos kamo. Kung sa bagay, lahat naman tayo may kapintasan. Sabi nga sa Biblia, all have sinned except Christ.

  47. Brownberry,
    Don’t forget, Erap topped the BAR, too!

  48. Brownberry Brownberry

    Oh yes, I forgot that Erap topped the BAR. He was always in the bar drinking.

  49. rose rose

    Tongue: Natawa ako sa sinabi mo…ditto sa sinabi ni BB..and he has every right to say whatever he wants to say..kaya lang kung empty naman ang mga sinabi maingay lang..empty cans make more noise hindi ba? nakakalito na kasi kung sino sino kakandidato..at pihado magkaroon ng population explosion at ang mga patay ay mabuhay, ang mga buntis ay magkaroon ng maraming anak (baka mag record breaking na gaya ni Jenny…11 ang ipinanganak..si Linta Lindol ay magsusurface..wowowee..I am just wondering pag lasing ba si Erap ay tahimik o madaldal?

  50. rose rose

    at isa pa..maraming lilipad sa gabi sa sagingan..to vote!

  51. Brownberry Brownberry

    Rose, huwag kang ma-alala at hindi umiinom ng empty cans si Erap. Bote ang tinitira niya. Si Erap hindi mo halata kung lasing. Notice how he talks these days on TV or during interview, parang lasing kung magsalita…bulol. What do you think he did in Tanay all these six years? Nagbasa lang ng diaryo at nilaro ang mga pato niya? Puno ng alak ang refrigerator niya. Kung minsan, kainuman at katagay niya ang mga guardia. Do you remember there was one time his security chief and guards were all replaced? Nahuli kasing nasa loob lahat at nakikipag-inuman…wala man isa man guardia sa labas.

  52. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    brownberry: tama ka si gloria lang ang kaaway natin kaso pag tungkol kay erap ang pinag-uusapan dito yang si yuko lagi niyang inaatake lahat kayo dito wala akong galit malaya kayong magsalita ng gusto niyo dapat malaya rin ako di ba? para daw kay yuko “ERAP IS NOTHING” siya kaya ano kaya siya? nagtatanong lang po dahil nakakapikon ako di ako kilala ni erap pero sa tingin ko siya lang yata ang politikong totoo kung ayaw niyong maniwala nasa inyo yan basta lang wag niyong ipagdamot yong gusto kong sabihin

  53. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    alam kong kayo lahat dito magagaling at may pinag-aralan pero yong lait-laitin niyo yong makamasang presidente nasasaktan din kaming mahihirap

  54. rose rose

    mim18-: I don’t think binabali wala si Erap na masamang presidente.. dahil siya ay makamasang presidente..as a matter of fact that is one asset of a good leader…he understood the problems of the people he served..hindi kailangan ang doctorate degree..si Pres. Truman high school graduate lang pero he was a good president..si Pres. Ramon Magsaysay ang sabi noon ay mekaniko lang..but he was a good president..kaya lang sa nangyayari ngayon many of our leaders are from the “high” society kaya hindi nakaranas ng buhay mahirap..kulang sa sensitivity and social awareness..malungkot!

  55. rose rose

    btw- ngayon ko lang nakita ang picture ni Esperon..sa Manila Bulletin, kanina..ang dami palang nakasabit na medalya..tunay ba ang mga iyon? grabe pala maka forma sa kodakay…they are one of a kind nga ng reyna niya..

  56. BB:

    Hindi ko pinapansin ang nanggugulo lang. Iisa ang tunog ng post. But you bet, Erap should start doing things that he excels in and can afford to produce. Makikisawsaw pa siya sa dirty politics, wala naman siyang magagawa. Gumawa na lang siya ng mga pelikula kahit propaganda ang dating!

    Ngdistribute siya ng mga doleouts sa mahihirap noong Pasko. Pinagkumpulan siya ng mga tao hindi dahil gusto pa siya ng ma mahihirap kundi bakit nga naman sila tatanggi sa grasya!

    Pero look, kinumpulan din nila si Dorobo na gumaya kay Erap na naglimos din sa mga mahihirap. Anong ibig sabihin niyan?
    Wala! Kundi bakit hindi nila tatanggapin ang grasya kahit kanino manggaling!

    Meanwhile, baka matoto pa sila kung makita nila ang katotohanan kung gagawa ng mga documentaries si Erap para ma-expose ang kawalanghiyaan ng mga kurakot running their government like hell.

    rose, ang tunay lamang kay esPWEron, at hindi mapapasubalian ay ang kanyang PANGIT na mukha at katotohanang siya ay isang SUPOT!

  58. Mrivera Mrivera

    kailangang matuto na si erap sa kanyang mga naging kamalian sa maikling inilagi niya sa malakanyang. mas inuna niya ang pagbibigay importansaya sa kanyang mga kaibigan kaysa pamamalakad sa bansa bunga tuloy, nagkaroon ng inggitan at bandang huli siya ang hinudas!

    magprodyus na lamang siya ng pelikulang movies na panonoorin ng kanyang mga sabik ng tagahanga.

    pabayaan na niya si gloria. maligaya na ‘yun sa piling ni esPWEron.

  59. Sinabi mo pa, Magno. Sa totoo lang maraming deputy ni Erap napahamak din nang matanggal siya. Mga civil service eligible na nagtrabaho sa embassy sa Tokyo. Grabe, tinuruan pang mangurakot. OK na sana ang mga position. Nag-ambisyon dahil nakasipsip sila kay Erap na hindi nakalimot ng utang na loob sa kanila. O di loko, sibak din sila imbes na sana nagpatuloy na lang sa mga puwesto nila at naghintay na lang ng pagreretiro. Kung sabagay nang nakaupo sila sa paligid ni Erap, balita ko nakakurakot din sila.

    Iyong isa nga ang asawa nasangkot sa jueteng. Nagtago na sa totoo lang. Hindi na umuwi ng Pilipinas. Kababayan pa ni Mr. Pidal sa totoo lang.

    Iyong

  60. Masarap magpalitan ng notes sa totoo lang. Iyong mga napuwesto sa totoo lang, kung pintasan nila si Erap ganoon na lang, pero inuto nila. Iyong mga kuwento-kuwento tungkol sa mga midnight drinking, totoo daw iyong sabi ng kakilala kong undersecretary noon panahon ni Erap. Din niya alam, karamihan noon sa kainuman niya niluluto na siya sa pangunguna ni Dorobo.

    Sa totoo lang, nakakaawang nakakainis. Para ma-redeem ang pangalan niya, gumawa na lang siya ng pelikula (documentary films). Tapos ilaban niya sa Oscar. Baka may pakinabang pa.

  61. Brownberry Brownberry

    mlm18_corpuz, I understand you. Siguro hindi maganda sa pandinig ang “Erap is nothing”. Pero ang ibig lang siguro sabihin ay wala nang magagawa si Erap ngayon…malala na ang condition ng bayan at magulo ang opposition. To me, Erap can be a senior adviser, a symbol of the opposition and masses. Kung may balak man siya sa pulitika, saan siya kukuha ng pera at pondo. If he has kept some that Sandigan fails to locate, do you think it’s easy for him to use those money without being watched? Sa akin lang, ang nilalakad niya ay si Jinggoy, JV at mga malalapit niyang kamag-anak. That’s understandable because anyone wishes that his legacy be handed down and carried by his children and family members. Kailangan ipagpatuloy ang pangalang Erap, Estrada, Ejercito…

  63. Brownberry Brownberry

    mlm18_corpuz, hindi tsismis ang midnight cabinet meeting ni Erap noon. No less than Laquitan (?), a very credible and decent man Erap recruited from Canada revealed it. Kaya siya napatalsik sa pagbulgar niya. Iyon kuwento ko naman na nag-inuman lahat ang mga guardiya ni Erap sa Tanay, biro ko lang iyon pero may balita akong pinapakain at pinaiinom (tubig o alak di ko alam) ang mga security niya doon. Ganoon kabait at generous si Erap. Kaya nga sa sobrang pakikisama niya sa mga kumpare napahamak siya. Walang iba kay Marcos noon na sobra ang pagbigay sa mga padrino at cronies. Ang mga bata at tauhan niya naman ang talagang kumita. Look at Lucio Tan and Danding…they’re still around and making more money each day courtesy of Marcos’ past help. Boy Abunda at Cristy Fermin? Aba, nanonood ka rin ng “The Buzz” ha. Iyang Boy Abundang iyan…inis ako sa baklang iyan na English ng English pero tonong Bisaya naman (no offense to Visayan). Pro-GMA iyan Abundang iyan kaya Abundance na ang kayamanan niya.

    Constractive or negative criticism in every issues will give us hope at maunawan natin kung ano ang tama o mali. It is a part of malayang usapan, talakayan at pagtanggap sa bawat kuru-kuro na ating binibigyang diin o ninanais na maunawaan ng bawat kinauukulan.

    Tuloy ang ligaya sa malayang pagpapalitan ng kuru-kuro at in the end magkakaunawaan din ang bawat isa sa ipinipintig ng puso kung ano ang makakaganda sa Bayang Pilipinas at kapwa-tao.

  69. balweg balweg

    mlm18_corpuz,

    Nauunawan ko ang iyong damdamin about Pres. Erap, naaalala mo pa ba ng lisanin niya ang Malacanang at magpaalam sa isa niyang trusted General (i don’t remember his name). Doon ko nadama ang katapatan ng Heneral kay Erap, pumatak ang kanyan luha sa harap ng Kgg. Erap.

    Alam mo i love history either sa Pinas or sa world, sinubaybayan ko ang buhay ni Pres. Erap hanggang maging Pangulo at mayroon akong datus sa kanyang accomplishment during his tenure as President.

    He was the only oppositionist sa Maynila during Marcos era. Di ba tinanggal siya bilang Mayor ng San Juan at that time pero inilaban niya ito sa husgado at naipanalo niya, kaya lalo siyang sumikat.

    Nang maupo siya noong 1998 eh bangkarote ang kabang-yaman ng Pinas sa panahon ni Tabako, after one-year niya sa Malacanang eh nakabawi ang Pinas at noong sipain siya eh malaki ang surplus ng budget ng gobyero + mas mataas ang economic growth ng Pinas compare sa panahon ni Macoy, tita Cory, Ramos eh.

    Isa sa dahilan na kaya nila sinipa si Erap eh obvious nga naman na kung maging successful siya bilang Pangulo eh laking kahiya-hiya sa lahat ng naging Pangulo ng bansa especially Tabako dahil ubos ang kabang-yaman.

    Sa panahon niya mas mataas ang pagpasok ng mga turista, at di ba nabawi ng gobyernong Erap ang halos lahat ng main camp ng MILF.

    Bayaan mo kung gusto mong malaman lahat ang accomplishment ni Erap kukwentuhan kita.

  70. Brownberry Brownberry

    Ka Balweg, ang binanggit mong General na napaluha nang umalis si Erap sa Malacanang ay si Gen. Calimlim na pumanaw na kailan lang. There were only two Generals I know who were there when Erap left the Palace, Gen. Angie Reyes and Gen. Calimlim. Both escorted Erap out of Malacanang. Imposible naman si Gen. Reyes ang lumuha eh kasabwat siya sa ouster ni Erap. It was Calimlim who was among the few decent Generals we’ve had. Alam mo ba na sa mga oras na iyon, handang magpaputok ang Presidential Security Group at mga bodyguards ni Erap? Hindi pumayag si Erap dahil maraming mamamatay kung nagkataon. Pormang siga si Erap pero may pusong mamon iyan.

  71. balweg balweg

    Brownberry: Korek ka diyan, thank you fresh pa sa iyong alaala ang senaryong ito. Alam mo ba na e record ko ang buong pangyayari sa impeachment ni Pangulong Erap from day 1 till sa walked-out ng prosecution. This is my remembrance sa ginawa nilang pagyurak sa ating Konstitusyon.

    Dark days of EDSA II, ang daming sinirang institutions at taong biktima ng extrajudicial killings. Hangga ngayon nga eh naghahasik pa ito ng lagim sa lipunan at patuloy na yumuyurak sa karapatang pantao.

    Di ba ang linaw ng sinasaad sa Bill of Rights, Art. III section 4, it says “No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assembly and petition the government for redress of grievances.”

  72. Brownberry Brownberry

    Ang tiyaga mo naman at ni-record mo ang buong impeachment ni Erap. Nakuha mo din iyon pagsayaw ni T. Oreta Aquino ano? Ngayon, sa Malacanang na siya sumasayaw partner si Tito Sotto.
    The subject of coming up with documentary films about GMA and other corrupt officials was raised recently and it would be nice if you donate a copy of your tape to the project.

  73. balweg balweg

    Brownberry,

    Sa VHS recorded lahat ito, E-180 Long play ginamit kong video cassette. Pinagtiyagaan ko talagang kopyahin sa kasagsagan ng impeachment. Bayaan mo bibigyan kita ng kopya nito, plano ko pang ilipat sa DVD para di bulky sa dami nito at obsolete na ang VHS eh.

    Favorite ko kasing subject noong kapanahunan ko pa sa skul eh Araling Panglipunan, mahilig kasi akong magbasa ng current events at world history. Enjoy kasi ako lalo na pag di busy at nasa haus lang.

    Sinadya ko talagang bumili ng set of World Book encyclopedia para enjoy sa pagbabasa, eh ngayon nga high tech na nasa internet available ito at sa dvd pa.

  74. Brownberry Brownberry

    Hindi mo na kailangan bumili ng encylopedia, Balweg. Dito na lang sa blog na ito, marami ka na mapupulot. Kahit anong topic meroon. Pati nga music meroon dito. Ang napapansin ko lang walang topic sa sex.

  75. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    balweg:salamat sa paglilinaw sana kung lahat ng andito sa ellenville kagaya mo di na sana ako nakikisawsaw pa yang kasi si yuko akala mo siya na ang pinakamagaling ayaw ko sanang mapikon pero napipilitan ako sobra kasi siyang manlait sana di niya maranasan yong laitin din siya

    Sa Strictly Politics ni Pia Hontiveros noong nakaraang Tuesday(January 08,2008) nandun si Erap, Jinggoy at Mayor ng San Juan na si JV.

    Sinabi ni Erap na pwede rin naman daw na maging source ang LGU’s bilang mga presidentiables.

    Para na rin sinabi ni Erap na, wala akong tiwala sa pagiging piloto ng isa kong anak.

I don’t want him to run again but I don’t want him to stop with his activities against the GMA administration. Siya na lang yata ang medyo malakas at iginagalang na lider ng opposition, patatahimikin mo pa?

    Kazuki, how can you say Erap is a US puppet? Galit nga ang mga Kano diyan and vice versa. In his three years in office, how many times did Erap visit the US or was invited to visit Washington? Now compare Erap to other RP Presidents, how many times did they go to US in their terms? Alam ng US na hindi nila kayang hawakan sa bayag este sa leeg si Erap. That’s why they (US) conspired with his foes in ousting him. Kazuki…what a nice name. Kasuki mo siguro ang mga kaaway ni Erap.

    Balweg, kaya puro salitang Ilokano si mlm18_corpuz para kay Yuko. May kamag-anak din ako sa Laoag at Isabela pero hindi ako marunong ng Ilokano. Sana iwasan natin ang mga ibang dialect dito dahil hindi maiintindihan ng marami.

  83. In hindsight, its true, Estrada was genuinely elected by the majority (without the benefit of dagdag bawas and 1 million votes from the famous Mindanao area). He was probably the only president who had the balls to launch an real honest-to-goodness all out war with the muslim rebels.
    Unfortunately, he had his weaknesses, as a man, as a husband, as a christian, and as a leader – he failed us. As constituents, we failed him in return. What if, as a response to his weaknesses, we offered strength, to his misguidedness, we offered options, he is still a man, isn’t he?
    The lessons we learn from history. We should respect the BALLOT, and we try to work with the leader chosen by the majority, even if we find him distasteful.

  84. Oo nga, 3 sentences lang alam ko sa Ilokano, pero importante ang mga yun.

    Kaliwa ka pala, kazuki. Kasuki mo ang mga kaliwa. Okay lang. I respect all kinds of ideologies. May tanong lang ako sa iyo?
    Sinong naging Presidente ng Pilipinas ang hindi puppet ng Amerika? Aber, sagutin mo nga…Si Ramon Magsaysay? Sus, balitang CIA nga iyan.

  89. Brownberry Brownberry

    Maganda ang mungkahi ni Yuko na gumawa ng documentary films si Erap. As of now, Erap is going to have a comedy movie with Ai-Ai de las Alas. Kung ako si Erap, hindi lang comedy ang gagawin ko. Gagawa ako ng movie na ibubulgar lahat ang kabahuan ni GMA. It could be fiction o a movie about his life. Of course we expect GMA through her rubber stamped MTRCB to stop the movie from showing. Okay lang…lalong magagalit ang mga tao at masa. That’s good timing for the 2010 election. Kahit hindi tumakbo si Erap, malaking plus iyan sa opposition kung may ganyang pelikula at harangin ng Malacanang.

  90. Brownberry Brownberry

    Remember “Iginuhit ng Tadhana” about Marcos? They tried to stop it from showing pero ano ang nangyari? Nakatulong sa election ni Marcos. That’s what Erap should do whether he’s running or not. Malaking tulong iyan sa opposition at sino man sa kanyang anak na tatakbo sa pulitika.

    A socialist democratic system is good for the philippines?

    Wait Kazuki di ka na magiging suki in Uncle Sam niyan eh kasi socialist ideology differs from democratic principle.

    Only few socialist gov’t existed now a days and many of former socialist countries renounced socialism and shifted to democratic principle of governance.

    Ang hirap atang yakapin ng mga Pinoy ang socialistang gobyerno, kaya walang mangyayari kung ito ang pag-uusapan ng lipunan.

    Ayusin na lamang nating ang demokrasya sa ating Bayan at magpakatutuo yang mga pulilitiko natin at yong nagnanais pumalaot sa mundo ng pulitika.

  93. Brownberry Brownberry

    Balweg, maganda din ang uri ng isang government ay a combination of two or many forms and ideologies. Lahat ng uri may kanya-kanyang advantage at disadvantage? Democratic form doesn’t always work. The proponent of such kind og government was the US followed by most of her allies like the Philippines. If it worked in the US, it doesn’t necessarily mean it works in third world countries like us. Sa Amerika kasi, very strong ang middle class. Sa Pilipinas at ibang mahirap na bansa, the gap between the rich and the poor is big and getting big. China was and still is a Communist/Socialist counry. Look at her now…the world’s economic superpower. Canada also has a very good form of government. May pagka socialist din ang Canada kaya libre ang healthcare. At the end of the day, it’s who is leading the country that counts most. Ano man form of government sa Pilipinas kapag may pekeng pangulong tulad ni GMA, wala din mangyayari.

    Kasuki: Si Aguinaldo eh elitista yan, di ba siya ang nagpatumba kay Bonifacio brothers?

    Dapat si Andress Bonifacio ang mamuno sa rebolusyunaryong Pinoy against Kastilaloy, ang kaso eh na-onse ng tropang Aguinaldo.

    See, akala mo ngayon lang nagkaka-osehan, noon pa man sa panahon nina Andress Bonifacio at iba pa. Di ba si Diego Silang eh pinoy ang naghudas kaya na tepok. Balik uli tayo kay Gat. Jose Riza’; di ba Pinoy din ang bumaril; si Ninoy Aquino di ba Pinoy din ang bumanat; si Jonas Burgos, di ba Pinoy din ang tumira.

    Medyo seryoso ang usapan natin eh, kwentong barbero muna tayo, alam mo ba kung sino ang tumira kay Lapu-lapu? Pag minsan naghair cut ka eh itanong mo sa barbero, alam nila kung sino?

  95. Brothers and sisters, I am a descendant of Lapu-Lapu (being born and raised in Mactan) but I know the answer to ka balweg’s query – KUSINERO, which is not historically proven of course. Pastilan!

    Brownberry: Unawa kita about this matter, and i don’t have any comments about ideologies sapagka’t ang lahat ng ito eh mayroong mabuting idudulot sa lipunan at mayroon din kahinaan, so nasa nagdadala lang nito.

    Some examples of successful gov’t:-

    1) UK – monarchy.
    2) USA- Democratic.
    3) Japan – constitutional monarchy.
    4) China – Communist.
    5) France -a unitary semi-presidential republic.
    6) Germany-a federal parliamentary republic.
    7) Canada – Canada is a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy.
    8) Italy – is a democratic republic.
    9) Russia – a federation and a presidential republic.
    10)Spain is a constitutional monarchy organised as a parliamentary democracy.

    AdeBrux,

    The French Republic is a unitary semi-presidential republic with strong democratic traditions. The constitution of the Fifth Republic was approved by referendum on 28 September 1958.

    It greatly strengthened the authority of the executive in relation to parliament. The executive branch itself has two leaders: the President of the Republic, who is elected directly by universal adult suffrage for a 5-year term (formerly 7 years) and is the Head of State, and the Government, led by the president-appointed Prime Minister.

    For further details:
    A unitary state is a state or country whose three organs of state are governed constitutionally as one single unit, with one constitutionally created legislature.
    Unitary definitions & List of unitary states
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_state

    The semi-presidential system is a system of government in which a prime minister and a president are both active participants in the day-to-day administration of the state.

    Two of my acquaintances who used to work in Tokyo and assigned to entertain Erap during his trips to Japan when he was in the Senate were given deputy positions in his cabinet when he became president. One I understand connived with the Dorobo kasi sa totoo lang protege ni Angara akala kasi mapupuwesto na siya bilang cabinet secretary ni Dorobo pero hindi. Iyong isa nagtago na sa Tate kasi na-involved ang asawa sa kurakot tungkol sa jueteng na mismong kaibigan nina Erap sinabi sa amin na customary iyong pagbibigay ng suhol mula sa jueteng sa Malacanang panahon pa ni Macapagal. Kaya as far as Erap is concerned para sa kaniya, normal lang iyon. Kahit naman iyong mga Pidals sila na ngayon ang nakikinabang ng kurakutan sa jueteng no doubt.

  104. Brownberry Brownberry

    Kahit kailan naman Erap never denied that he was not into jueteng. Panahon pa ng lolo at lola ko may jueteng na. What Erap did was to come up with some schemes to benefit the majority of the poor including the Muslim Youth. Tawagin na nating Robin Hood si Erap pero mas okay naman siya kesa mga nasa poder ngayon na sa bulsa lang nila tuloy ang mga kita at nakaw.
