[Paper]

And her corruption was masked by all these "selfless" deeds. I abhor politicians, no matter how nice they may seem.

but she led a revolution against a dictator, bloodless, she brought back democracy, she fought coups

Not quite. Doy Laurel should've been the face of the EDSA Revolution (along with ENrile and Ramos) but for some reason a wiseguy thought the widow of a dead senator will have a much more sympathetic overtone over one of the three conspirators. They also assured Cory that they will be providing "advisers" to help her run the country. She is effectively only a figurehead.

You know the sad thing about a person's death? The people left behind only wants to remember all the good things about the dead, they bury all the person's flaws in the funeral. (Looks at Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley too.)

I'd rather it was her who was the figurehead than Enrile, Ramos et. al.. Despite her obvious weakness as a leader, Aquino had an aura of sincerity about her. Nevermind her faults, what the country needed at that time was someone like her, not a flamboyant hardliner like the other alternatives. They'd all be just like Marcos.

Anyway, we'll always had shitty presidents, and I don't see that getting better anytime soon (Mar Roxas seems weak, Manny Villar is an influence peddling hypocrite, Jamby/Puno/Teodoro/Binay/Bayani are jokes). It's amazing how we survive. I personally think we're doing better than we think we are. Imagine if we get a really good, clean leader.

 

[hunter71485]

We can never get a good, clean leader. Entering politics will change the way you perceive life. Take Jamby for example. She believes she can buy her way to presidency.

cory herself said that, there is no perfect president. but she did her best. the president after marcos will have the hardest reign. she did great for a housewife, you know she was just too much a moral woman for politics. too idealistic, but she never wavered. that strength, that's admirable. anyway we're getting double pay tomorrow *yehey*

By the way, do you know who was implicated on the military coup d'etat against Cory besides Honasan and the RAMboys?

Enrile. Good thing he's afraid of FVR.

 

[baboysai]

Man, I missed the internet. I missed MH. I missed you guys!

 

[hunter71485]

Guys looking at each other through LCD screens doesn't give much conversation, beebs. Unless one of us is gay and is so into the other guys... Which (I hope) isn't the case.

 

[baboysai]

[kuroihikari]

I'd love to go for a Comiccon for once, but I'm too old and disabled for it .

Oh, and Alabang to Makati is still one ride. One ride = not hell. Or at least, hell everywhere else in the sensible world except for someone raised in Manila hehe.

 

[yoniekai]

hey it's bb! i remember her! she's that girl. on the internet. posting. on a filipino board thingy. something

 

[baboysai]

yeah whatever, you bullies.


mj, di kaya 1 ride ang alabang to makati. I have to ride a jeep to metropolis, then the bus to makati, and ride the jeepney again to get to work -_- there is a shuttle here in the village that goes straight to makati and to the hotel but I have to figure the timing out first. what a pain.



How is everyone doing? Oi yonie, you don't post that often- which means you got work already?


*goes to read her missed manga chapters*

 

[hunter71485]

[baboysai]

[yoniekai]

[baboysai]

lol if you keep it up, your social cancer will turn to other cancers of the physical kind and kill you :P

 

[hunter71485]
