Electing Someone for His Money Is Treason
02/06/2010 07:43 PM EST
WASHINGTON,D.C., Feb. 06 (PinoyGlobal) - Life ends when we do nothing
over things that matter. And evil they say, triumphs because good men do
nothing. But I will do my level best to ring the cat’s bells to wake up our
apathetic and lethargic compatriots if it’s the last thing I will do in this life.

Jesus Mistaken for John
King Herod heard about it, for his fame had become widespread, and
people were saying, "John the Baptist has been raised from the dead; that
is why mighty powers are at work in him." Others were saying, "He is
Elijah"; still others, "He is a prophet like any of the prophets." But when
Herod learned of it, he said, "It is John whom I beheaded. He has been
raised up."

Obama Admits Healthcare Overhaul May Die On Hill
Alert: After insisting for a year that failure was not an option, President
Barack Obama is now acknowledging his healthcare overhaul may die in
Congress. His tone at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser Thursday
night verged at times on defeatist. Even while saying he still wanted to get
the job done, Obama bowed to new political realities. Democrats no longer
command a filibuster-proof Senate majority, and voters and lawmakers are
far more concerned with jobs and the economy than with enacting
sweeping and expensive changes to the health system.

Tales of the longest-staying Malacañang resident except for

From its beginnings in 1802 as a Spanish aristocrat’s summer home,
Malacañang Palace in Manila was to become the prime seat of political
power in the Philippines. It served as the official residence of the country’s
governors-general both during the Spanish colonial years until 1898 and
during the American occupation until the establishment of the Philippine

MANILA, PHILIPPINES Feb. 16 (PinoyGlobal) - “TAKOT,” ganito ang pag-
akusa ng mga Kongresista kay Sen. Noynoy Aquino, pambato ng Liberal

ang kanyang pinsan na si Lakas Kampi standard bearer at dating defense
sec. Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro Jr., at bukod tangi lamang si Sen. Manny Villar
ang kanyang hinamon.

Kongresista sa mga Mamahayag maging sa mga mamayan pati na sa

Pagiging speaker ni PGMA, puwede - oposisyon

Mission Impossible - Road to a Noynoy victory could pass
through Hacienda Luisita
WASHINGTON, DC - The trouble with Noynoy's February 9 pronouncement is
that it is only being done after Noynoy had already dropped to a steep dive
ending in a statistical tie with Manny Villar.
When I sent messages to Noynoy Aquino through friends like Tony Aquino
(no relations) and Popoy Juico, that he should not join this presidential race
because he will just render not only himself but his family as fair game, my
best intentions were ignored and instead I was insulted.

WASHINGTON, DC - The trouble with those who are after Manny Villar is
that they show more emotions and recklessness than fact and substance.
As a result, their allegations created an image that this presidential
candidate is being persecuted, not prosecuted.

SACRAMENTO, CALIF., Mar. 3 (PinoyGlobal) Last February 24, 2010, on the
24th anniversary of the People Power Revolution of 1986, President Gloria
Macapagal Arroyo delivered her final message to commemorate EDSA 1. She
repeated the same cliché that she had been telling the people in the past
several years: “The world embraced EDSA 1 in 1986. The world tolerated
EDSA 2 in 2001. The world will not forgive an EDSA 3 but would instead
condemn the Philippines as a country whose political system is hopelessly
unstable.”
