Bong Revilla arrest like movie premiere

It has all the elements of a successful movie launch---the movie's main actor with his wife smiling and waiving before huge throngs of his shrieking fans. Senator Bong Revilla must have thought that he's just attending one of his movie premieres. That's why even when he was being taken his mugshots, he appeared smiling and "all game" to it all.

Bong even punctuated the entire event with a cryptic McArthur-like quip, " I will rise again!" It's an attempt by Bong Revilla to put a political color into it, yet, the public is definitely not convinced.

Everyone, probably except Bong, know that what they saw was a usual surrender of someone accused of a crime. It is just that Bong preferred to do it with fanfare. And the media were all game or into it.

Philip Lustre writes in his FB update na just allow all these stupid things since it is what Bong prefers. He is smiling now, but hours from now, says Lustre, Bong will definitely realize that all the hoopla is not anymore a dream but a horrific reality.

Janet Lim-Napoles, when she was accompanied by the president to Camp Crame and unto Fort Santa Rosa thought that she would just be imprisoned for a time. Yet, Napoles has been there for a year now and all of these things are just starting.

Those scenes yesterday were but reminders for those who still continue their errant and corrupt ways to reconsider and tread the right path, otherwise, suffer the very same things these thieves are now encountering.

Of course, Bong Revilla knows that these things are just "temporary" since he can still run while the resolution of his case pends before the Sandiganbayan. More than ever, Bong Revilla's personal survival depends on the extension of his political life. If he loses more political power, he loses clout and makes him susceptible to a harsher punishment.

That's why Bong is banking on the possibility of him, "rising again" because the system practically allows it. He is still not barred from running for office because there is still no final adjudication of his case.

The thing that Bong does not realize is the fact that the longer he stays in jail, the more he spends money. The more money he gives to enjoy favors in jail, the more he becomes vulnerable. IN this system, money is t

Exorcising Ruby Tuason and Dennis Cunanan

Ruby Tuason and Dennis Cunanan are being positioned by their handlers as innocent lambs unaware of things going on in their lives. They are being hailed as "saints" when in truth and in fact, they are part of the very system that cheated us, ordinary citizens, of our monies.

At the Ateneo forum where Tuason attended, she is being portrayed as someone who cared for the poor who visited Senator Jinggoy Estrada's office. Bull. Crap.

Cunanan, for his part, says that he is not a party to this widespread corruption and is trying very hard to convince us, the public, that he was just forced to do what he said he did, unknowingly. Bull. Crap.

Cunanan, just to refresh the people's memories, is an active supporter of former president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. He once served as a youth organizer for Gloria after his fraternity brother, former Presidential adviser Mike Defensor recommended him to his La Vista neighbor. Cunanan never graduated from college and he made his spurs serving as a loyal follower of the former president.

Like others, Cunanan was rehabilitated by this administration, probably because some of his fraternity brothers work for the present administration. Nothing wrong, except that it is common knowledge that Cunanan grew in wealth and in influence during the time of Arroyo and continued on at the time of Aquino.

Ruby Tuason for her part, is trying very hard to convince us that she never orchestrated the whole thing. That it was just Janet Lim-Napoles show and she was sincere in approving all those projects because she wants to help people. That is the most stupid lie I have ever heard in my entire life.

Don't ever tell me that Tuason never counted those millions she and her friend, Napoles, took from us. Tuason is no saint. Why is she being made to portray a role she will never ever win an Oscar with baffles me. This is one Tuason who confessed of being a crook and probably just made this revelation because she felt that this administration is dead serious in prosecuting people who really stole the people's monies big time.

Cunanan travelled all over the world and don't tell me that he spent his own monies. Where did he get those millions?

They have spent most of their lives using the very monies we put in government and a product of our hard work. Now, they us to believe that they did not profit from these things, that they are saints or even angels who were just influenced by demons for years.

Disgusting. Tell it to the marines. Better yet, tell it to Davao city mayor Rodrigo Duterte.
