If these people are indeed our saviors, then we really are screwed. As a British playwright once wrote, “Patriotism is the virtue of the vicious.” Also, if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. Para sa sambayanang pilipino, indeed. What a load of bovine ordure. Leave us out of it, thank you very much. And all that in the name of patriotism.

It would have been major media exposure for them (2010, here we come!).

Cabs are playing semi-gods. And at the other side of the fence, people were plotting a coup? So you really think people are ready to get wet with you?!

I understood him, even sympathized with him and with our tired, underpaid troops during the Oakwood thing. But what is his point now? Maybe he thinks that Philippine hotels make excellent cover and refuge for plotting an uprising, and, should they be cornered, an impenetrable yet expendable fortress of resistance, not withstanding the risk of casualties and damage to infrastructure not his? Point taken. Except that in the end, the little boy calls it quits and goes home proving nothing. Boy, that front door is gonna cost you big time. So, Mr. Trillanes has done it again, huh.

I held my breath wondering whether it would try to squeeze itself in the elevator door. Trillanes and company should have waited a while longer. Only in the Philippines could they come up with a show like this. It needs a major script revision. The high-budget sets didn't help to make up for the melodramatic speeches and bad casting. Gringo, at least could make it more action-packed, and actually influence the stock market. After this episode is forgotten within the week (or maybe a month), nothing will really change. The left and the right-wing will still go for each other's throats. The "people" meanwhile, still won't be able to tell the difference between the two.

As in excreta in the vernacular.
