Bongbong buried his father while Noynoy FAILED to solve his father's murder

What does that say about the two men? It shows that against the odds, without the benefit of executive power, and against the tide of public opinion, former Senator Bongbong Marcos achieved an end. Compare this to former President Benigno Simeon "BS" Aquino who, despite being the Philippines' most powerful man for six years, failed to conclusively solve the murder of his own father who was vastly more revered than Marcos. If Aquino or, for that matter, the broader community of Yellowtards could not bring closure to the enduring mystery of who really killed their top "hero", the late former Senator Benigno Aquino Jr, how could one even expect the Yellowtards to achieve bigger things that require formidable political resolve?

To get things done in the Philippines requires political will and savvy. Though symbolic in nature, the burial of Marcos at the Libingan ng mga Bayani demonstrates the political savvy of the Marcos clan and its allies. Call their methods wh…

Roman Catholic Church tells Filipinos that God is on Leni Robredo's side

Trust the Roman Catholic Church to get involved in all the wrong ways. What exactly does "praying over" the lawyers of "vice president" Leni Robredo in the lead up to the vote recount today to determine who really won the vice presidency back in 2016? It shows that the Church is endorsing one side of the dispute and is not really interested nor curious to learn the truth.


In the modern world, the truth can only be revealed after a systematic effort through a process that applies a consistent set of rules that all parties involved adhere to.

The Church would like Filipinos to believe that there are powers that are above the rules prescribed by the State and that these powers are on the side of Leni Robredo.

This is the sort of thinking that is ingrained in Philippine society thanks to the examples exhibited by the Church in the manner with which it participates in democratic processes.

Here's why TAMBAY youth should be rounded up by the police...

The tambay are symptoms of a lazy and unimaginative society. Worse they are affronts to discipline. There is no excuse for youthful able-bodied people hanging around in a street corner doing nothing.

Kilala sa bayan, asal ay gahaman
Malakas sa inuman, istorbo sa daan
Meron pa kayang pag-asang magbago
Ang taong lumaki sa layaw?
If there is no paid work to be done, there will always be volunteer work to do. Volunteer work allows a young person to acquire skills and experience and provides him or her an ethic of commitment to completing tasks and taking responsibility. Hanging around doing nothing does nothing to or for anyone.

Sobra sa bigat, hindi na mabuhat
Sobra sa tamad, laging hubad
Hindi na n'ya mapigilan ang kanyang mga bisyo
Kaya ang bagsak niya'y sa kalaboso.
It is ironic that the so-called "liberals" of the Philippine Opposition are opposed to rounding up tambays. These are, after all, a partisan clique that believes the state should take over where personal initi…

When Yellowtards say democracy is "dead" AGAIN, don't believe them!

By -

It has become such an overused slogan. "Democracy is dead". It's a shrill cry that comes from the Opposition (who, presumably, continue to be led by the Yellowtards) whenever they suffer a setback. It's as if they are saying that democracy lives solely for the purpose of Yellowtard wellbeing.

What flies over the pointed heads of the Yellowtards is the simple fact that due process is working. It's just not working for them and their insidious agendas.

These Yellowtards probably haven't read the ancient Aesop fable of the Boy Who Cried Wolf. According to this fable, a shepherd boy who kept shrieking that a wolf was attacking his flock eventually stopped being believed by the villagers who erstwhile had been coming to his aid. When a wolf actually did come to visit, his shrieks fell on deaf ears and he was eaten up along with his sheep.

If we are to believe the Yellowtards as they once again set off to kick up an all-too-familiar Cry Wolf campaign about how dem…
