FVR has already replied to this Open Letter

" Thanks, all! Ryan, FVR wrote me back to say that he was "hurt" that I had gone public with my letter and that my opinion was very important to him. So I wrote back explaining why I felt I had to do so. I apologized again for having inadvertently hurt him while standing my ground on the questions I had raised, pointing out that he had not exactly answered them yet... After that, we wrote each other several more times to make peace and he eventually sent me a giant box of materials to read, which I am now going through.

In the meantime, he has decided not to make any endorsements until March of next year... He tends to believe that candidates "implode" if u just give them a little time, so I'm sure he's watching and waiting to see who will do what. Already there have been some minor implosions anyway... That said, obviously I would be much happier if he took a stance once and for all...

Feel free to re-post, Bart! "

the de facto president


Gloria’s appeal to the intelligentsia and religious leaders to support her in efforts to weed out corruption and promote good governance is but a last ditch effort to trick all of us to give her another chance. She says one thing and does another. Gloria’s decision to scrap EO 464 now that the damage has already been done on our institutions is too late and too empty to be of any substance. The Supreme Court leaves only the principle of issuing EO-464 constitutional, but everything else is rubbish as it has already junked (much earlier) the constitutionality of all but two provisions of the controversial E.O. 464 which have been used in covering up for the Venable Contract, Hello Garci Scandal, Fertilizer Fund Scam, NorthRail Project and the NBN-ZTE deal. Even before the EO was scrapped, it was toothless and rendered inefficient so that other weapons are now used to achieve the same effect – invoking presidential immunity, the right against self-incrimination, and executive privilege – this is a clear indication of saying one thing yet doing another. Malinaw sa taong bayan na ang administrasyon ni Gloria ay sinisikil ang katotohanan at umiiwas sa pananagutan.




TAMA NA, SOBRA NA. Seven years, and nothing but saliva, Gloria’s moves are not part of a sincere struggle but a blatant hypocrisy that seeks to insult the intelligence of the Filipino people and disrespect our laws and the constitution itself, along with every principle of ethics and morality, in her administration’s quest for political survival and dominion over all that is left of the Philippines.



the de facto president, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) has lost all sense of decency and consequently has lost any remaining respect of the Filipino People. She has repeatedly become the centerpiece of scams and scandals that represent the wide range of corruption and dishonesty she and her allies have ventured into. It is an understatement to say that the National Executive branch of the Philippine government has virtually become the exclusive enclave of Gloria and her allies, becoming in fact the Great Arroyo Mafia. (OR, the Great Mafia of the Arroyos, still GMA. Note that JdV was kicked out of this, thanks to the war-drum beat of the three Arroyos in the Lower House, confirming earlier suspicions of further consolidation of power with the election of 3 Arroyos and the explosive growth of ka-KAMPI.)

Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is the Titular head of this mafia; while we now all know, like Renato de Villa has known way ahead of us, that Big Boy, Jose Pidal, the First Gentleman is its real boss. So in analysis we can surmise that there are two GMAs: one is Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, the sincere and hardworking populist president; the other is the Great Mafia of the Arroyos, the underground under-the-table system of alliances developed and aggressively pursued by the First Gentleman, his sons, brother Iggy, and their loyal servants like Abalos, Nograles, and you get the picture. The Great Mafia of the Arroyos is, of course, not complete without the backing and loans from crony capitalists, and the one we know most is Enrique Razon. Who knows how many more of this cabal of conspirators have turned against their own people for financial gain. What we know from erstwhile allies (Manay Gina de Venecia, and the Hyatt 10 like Dinky Soliman) is that the other GMA, the Mafia, has been in virtual control of the Office of the President since its survival of the Hello-Garci Electoral Fraud Scandal.



TAMA NA, SOBRA NA.



If the president stays, she will remain an object not of respect, but an object of national scorn and international shame for us!



The only way out is for the chief benefactors of the rigged 2004 elections to resign immediately and unconditionally, to prepare the way for a snap elections. All the mess done by the current regime has unconsciously dug its own grave and in its effort to cover-up, this grave has become deeper. Of course, Cha-Cha (or charter change) has always been the first aid kit of LAKAS since the Ramos regime. Its recipe has been perfected by JdV himself perhaps out of fervent hopes to become the First Prime Minister in this new Charter. But now this recipe has been stolen from him as GMA poises to transform herself into this new blended vastly reinforced top position. Sorry JdV, but you can’t make it right, probably (GMA hopes) the lord will grant this to her at the right time (after 2010).

Speaking of the lord, please be informed we do not pray to one and the same God. (Remember FG could be heard saying, “god bless!” in the hello-garci recordings.) While also monotheists, these corrupt elements obviously have one god but its name is Mammon, not Allah, Yahweh El Shaddai, or any other supreme deity, but Mammon. So the next time you hear Gloria saying she talked to god, you know which god hears her prayers.



SHE has excelled above all men in theft and perjury.

Her reward will be great in Mammon’s haven. Bahala na si lord sa kanya

however bad a Filipino government might be, we can always change it

from http://nimbosa.multiply.com/journal/item/7



Indifference is a mistake

With every election cycle that we go through, the feeling inevitably grows that it doesn’t matter anyway who will be elected, nothing will change and it will be “boom tarat tarat” as usual. The politicos will continue to wallow in billions in pork barrel and discretionary funds, continue to bless their favored groups with overpriced contracts, and continue to saddle us the people with too high a tax burden and too much regulatory nonsense. It is not surprising therefore why my generation generally expresses indifferent attitudes about the upcoming elections.

Remarkably, however, I find many young people expressing this same ‘I couldn’t care less’ sentiment and it is hard to understand why. Youth, after all, is a time when one is supposed to be full of confidence that anything is possible and one’s dreams are imbued with idealism and hope. That those who are voting possibly for only the second or third time in their lives feel indifference could of course only be testimony to the fact that this campaign has been supremely dull. It might also disturbingly indicate, however, that the young have, this early, already begun to feel that elections in particular and politics in general have no relevance to their personal lives and no connection whatsoever to their aspirations.


our first democratically elected president said that if he he could have his way, he prefers

"..a country run like hell by Filipinos to a country run like heaven by Americans. Because, however bad a Filipino government might be, we can always change it."


and i say, WE MUST CHANGE IT
now,
more than ever before, we must lay the foundations of an open society



IN THESE LATTER DAYS, it would be safe to say that it is Better to have my country torn by strife and revolt against its unjust oppressors than to have "prosperity" and "peace" with Tyranny and Corruption.


You cannot make peace with Evil, in the same way we cannot make war against the Good. But it has been the policy of this government to make war against all virtuous and principled men and womenby spreading lies, by subterfuge and manipulation, by threats of violence and even intimidation at the courts of law, and by these means they put up a facade of morality and righteousness. But who are they fooling with this veneer of rectitude?

For this coming election, it has been the slogan OF the Administration "Unity for Progress" to cajole the citizens into voting their candidates. I say we Unite with the Good and Proclaim the Truth, make war with Corruption and Tyranny and expose every Lie. There can be no real Progress while Corruption reigns supreme. There can be no basis for Unity until the People has come to know all that is Good and True.


one Evil at a time, we must defeat ALL parasites infesting our social landscape today

From the lowest clerks to the highest office, we know Corruption is what leads to Tyranny and Injustice in this land, and it is also the cause of worsening Poverty and the vicious cycle of Violence we witness today. On COMELEC's own record we have the highest number of election-related violence today since democracy was restored. This is sign of desperation for the Corrupt leaders willing to do everything they can to hold on to power. And we must fail them. The perpetrators of this lawless violence are not common criminals, masterminds of most of them are also in power, and have this high disregard of the law because they know the law is on their side. Nakasandal sila sa poder, este, sa pader, kay Gloria.

I say down with the Administration's ticket and vote for the best alternative instead. Not because averyone in the Administration's side is Evil, NO. Individual candidates endorsed by the Administration may have good intentions and a sincere heart, BUT all that comes to nothing when they succumb to the Administration's will and their voices are drowned by the thunders of Corrupt Despotism. As a favor to this few good men and women who find themselves under the banner of the Administration, we should save them from compromising their principles for the Administration's will. Let us vote for the people who can openly defy the machinations of those in power and unseat the illegitimate and corrupt ledership now controlling our vital institutions.



People not to vote for Senator : (definitely)

at dapat gwardyahan ang boto, pahirapan natin ang mandadaya:

If democracy, according to Vaclav Havel, is the unfinished story of human aspirations, let us continue the journey in the coming elections by helping restore the trustworthiness of the election process, and on the strength of that foundation, move on to other institutions. Each of us must put down his piece in this giant jigsaw puzzle called nation-building, for only then can we say that we are truly deserving of this blessed nation.
