JUST THOUGHTS ON SOME CURRENT NEWS


Im not trying to be a news writer here, but its all over the news. ZTE Big issue. Big witness, Secretary Neri is said to be yet another significant key to solving who's the boy crying wolf and who is telling the truth. But what a coincidence, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo decides to take Sec. Neri along with her on her trip to New York, on the eve of the Senate Hearing when Neri is supposed to take the stand. Coincidence. Coincidence..hmm Why does the President have to drag him along when she knows first hand that Neri's testimonies would be helpful to solving the issue? Is she trying to drag the case, hiding the cards longer, Is she trying to protect her husband? Has she been conspiring with her husband? All haka-hakas. All questionable acts, which even if the Filipino ask, the Government is all deaf ears and rather snickering at such unimportant black propaganda.
???
Also,I think Neri is still undecided as to what to confirm and not confirm, I understand this is a hard decision to make for him and his family. Para silang yung burger patty sa Hamburger. Ipit. But, If he goes on undecided, this means that He is yet to be helpful to solving the case, but rather he is just another floater- as good as the 'no comment' line is. I remember a professor of mine back in UST, he told us that when you are given a choice, you have to choose, you cannot say slightly yes and slightly no. It is either yes or no. Anyone who takes a stand in between go to hell-Politics. No balls-no glory. I dont know if this applies to all aspects of life but for politics, it can. I dont know what it is like to be in Neri's shoes right now.

Anyway,Regardless of what underlying ulterior motive is driving Joey De Venecia III, to carry out such an expose' against FGMA, I believe him to be telling the truth. Whether if its his way of getting back for the contract which could have been his company's or whether he is planning to fragrantly enhanced the family name (which at the same time is irony, especially for his father), I believe him.

FGMA has no whatsoever authority in the government other than being the husband of the President but he seems to be very influential and hard to tackle down ever since, and in spite of.. all the controversy he had been previously linked with. The Arroyo family has struggled succesfully escaping questionable issues after issues. "Tapal Bulka Seal." Everything basta tungkol sa Arroyos', kahit anong kontrobersya, is just plain haka-haka, black propaganda, or ridiculous speculations their camp would always say. I mean Harap Harapan na. I think any Filipino can say "hey huli ka na" and they can still say " Hindi totoo yan" like its nothing. Psychological manipulation, o Mass Helplessness? I mean no further questions, they can turn the fire on you. when its supposed to be burning them already. The Garci incident na lang. Hay...

What does Luli want? (OR is she just another attempt to distract or divert the attention of the people?) anyway Just because she is hurting (which as a daughter, is given and understandable) for her father being the highlight of the katiwalian, and after just a very recent medical operation, she needs the country to sympathize and verdict his father not guilty based on that?
Everybody hurts, Luli. Everybody hurts.

Judging Joey based on his past mistakes in retaliation is very unprofessional and even in a personal circumstance, setting aside all politics involve, is unwise for a woman of her knowledge. Frankly speaking, she was desperate to say something against Joey, and thats all you can find on him? ex- addict ( to what... marijuana?) Im sorry but very Lame. No one is judging you back Luli, as you say you have lives we dont know about other than your politically inclined life, but then again, all that is irrelevant to the issue isnt it? I dont get the point why you brought up your personal issues in the first place. Im a nobody, I dont know you personally, I dont know anybody involve personally , but then i dont have to.

Joey de Venecia III, I am not your fan, but you just do what you need to do.

Speaker Jose De Venecia, close and loyal friend of the President, father of Joey on the other hand only need to remind himself that he is also in this case, the father of Congress.This, i heard sa Radio sa taxi one morning and I agree.

I think I heard him say sa TV news that He already advised GMA to cancel(or whatever terminoloy is more suitable) the ZTE contract and trash it once and for all. And then what? what next...

I dont how this will turn up in the end, or kung interesado pa ba ang tao by then, Ang masasabi ko lang ay ...to Something certainly doubtful, there is obviously something wrong.
