Style Differences

Benigno Simeon Aquino is very right, they do have major, major differences in style.

P R O O F:

Robredo is dynamic, he is mediocre.

Robredo sticks to the principle of good governance (Naga become a premier city because of his leadership), Aquino sticks more to his cigarettes. (No clear indication as to where he is leading this country).

Robredo is a Magsaysay awardee, he is not.

Just Laugh

"Noynoy, in a wake of former Olongapo City Mayor Teodoro Macapagal, referred to the bloody hostage rescue operations that saw eight Hong Kong tourists dead, as well as the hostage-taker, sacked police officer Rolando Mendoza, saying that all this will be over in two to three years and the country will look back at the hostage crisis and “just laugh."

Is that what you did when your father, Ninoy, was slain at the Manila International Airport?. It's sad that the president doesn't think before opening his mouth. The president was caught on camera with a smile in his face during the aftermath of the hostage taking last August 23 which enraged the Chinese and called him "smiling dog", now this?

How insensitive.

and this goes on and on;

"Our current problem (the hostage-taking incident), perhaps in two, three years, we can say that we will all be laughing when we remember this problem (of the botched hostage rescue operations) because it really wasn’t all that serious."

Hope he is not taking something aside from his anti-depressant... seriously.

Lonely at the Top

Lonelier if one has none. P200 Million must be the cure, Noy bloated his own pork barrel from 800 Million to One Billion Pesos.

Ito ba ang daang matuwid? (Is this the ethical way?)

The Late President

Sorry folks, the president isn't dead. He's just being with his habitual self again, being late that is. He has the penchant for being late in everything he does. Haste makes waste but being sluggish is worst. It took almost two weeks for him to admit their fault.

Some "Yellow Fanatics", especially former president Arroyo's critics are now realizing how clearly inept or incompetent the present administration is. Many of Noy's followers are disgusted with the way this administration handled the Quirino Grandstand hostage-taking tragedy which claimed 8 lives, 9 if you count the hostage taker, dismissed police officer Rolando Mendoza.

It took the president a split second to fire then PAGASA chief DR. PRISCO NILO, why is he taking too much time firing people responsible for the bungled rescue attempt?

Wake up Mr. President, take risk, lead and be decisive.
