Even before the culmination of the 2010 national elections, CPP/NPA/NDF personalities/ senatoriables Liza Masa and Satur Ocampo were lagging behind surveys. The one billion pesos raised by the party to fund its hoax party, MAKABAYAN, barely made difference to the candidacies of the two. Gone were the fund years raised by the party's cadres mostly through extortion from businessmen and mandatory contributions from poor supporters from the countryside.
Yet, the CPP faction led by Jose Maria Sison's successor, and rival, Benito Tiamzon, rejoiced on the defeat of the party's election effort. The result shamed Sison. It also gave Tiamzon an issue to attack Sison and the defeated senatoriables specifically alleging on the pilfering of the said huge fund. Which put Ocampo into hiding now.
The result of the 2010 elections spoke much for the future of the party. Not only it shows the diminishing support of the masses to the party, but it also intensified the internal debates and frictions inside. Tiamzon argues that while Sison enjoys a luxurious lifestyle in the Netherlands, militias and cadres in the countryside are starved while sick members were denied of proper medication. The one billion pesos downed to drain during the election could have well provided for the morale and welfare of cadres.
For the Filipinos, though, this is a good news. The CPP's death is unevitable. Sooner we can expect for a more peaceful and progessive nation.
An insult to our Armed Forces from the President who is yet to be inaugurated
This is a call to our President-Elect Noynoy Aquino, or P-Noy as he preferred to be called:
Yes, the Arroyo administration may have its own lapses and controversy. In your circle, that may give you the right to humiliate and insult them. Why not? They are politicians! and whether we admit it or not, only but few of our politicians nowadays deserve some respect. For you, Mr.President, you have yet to prove to your constituents that you deserve that respect in the duration of your incumbency.
Yet, before being inaugurated, your actions (regardless of your awareness of it) has somehow insulted our Armed Forces of the Philippines. As the President of the State, you should be calling on your constituents for unity and respect our of authority. Respect our government. Respect our law enforcement.
Yet, for the past weeks, you and your disrespectful spokesperson Edwin Lacierda has been humiliating the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, just because he is an appointee of your hated predecessor, who, by the way, gain office with the help of your martyr mother. You humiliated a man who dedicated his life in serving the country far more than you did, laid his own life in several instances, worked his way through his present rank as how the Military do it--years in battle field, advanced schooling, progressive and elevating positions for career growth. That's how our soldiers gain their respect and position! Unlike politicians, who need not have the experience and the accomplishment to gain various positions in the land. A name is all they need--- may it be good or bad.
You could get rid of General Bangit once your in post. But you know what, the humiliation that you bestowed to the man is no equal to the humiliation you caused to yourself. You and your circle may not be aware of it because your'e still floating in cloud 9. But us thinkers and not fanatics, professionals, middleclass (not from your elite circle), prefer to respect people who sweat with blood to be where they are now, than the privildged few who, since birth, were raised in comfort and luxury because their name promised them a place for greatness that many much deserved more.

How the next administration would be like
June 09, 2010 2:45 PM---
Few minutes from now Senator Noynoy Aquino and Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay will be proclamed by as the elected President and Vice President of the Philippines.
The Camp of Sen Aquino is determined to "remake the country."
By "remaking" the country, I wonder if he meant:
1. Putting Boy Abunda as the Secretary of National Defense.
Boy Abunda is efficient in defensing the sides of his "alaga" in showbiz.
2. Kris Aquino as the Press Secretary.
Kristetay is giving up her talk shows in channel 2. In retrospect, this is good. Media people need not ask questions to our new press secretary. She will offer it in style. Dont forget the sponsors!
3. James Yap will be the Chairman of Philippine Sports Commission. Not bad, just make sure he would not spend so much time on Belo clinics.
4. Baby James will be definitely denied of live interviews. Nobody in the coming administration wants to be bullied again by cute little james :)
5. Smoking is tolerable. We dont want additional stressors, do we (words of Noynoy)?
6. The PSG should be in yellow. Long gone Men in Black.
