What a bad moment for my beloved country, the Philippines. First we missed the World’s Friendliest Country list. Now, we placed 130th among 149 countries in the just-released Global Peace Index (GPI) that ranked the world’s most peaceful nations based on the 2009 data. The Philippines, how pitiful, is in the red zone (translated as [...]

Glenn Beck Has the Intelligence of a 10-year-old
May 28th, 2010
No Comments
I have never been a Glenn Beck fan. To me, what Glenn Beck says on TV (or tries to explain on TV) is full of ignorance that a ten-year-old kid can explain issues even better. What he did to Pres. Obama’s daughter, 11-year-old Malia Obama, confirms the twisted 10-year-old brain of Beck. In his radio [...]
Mar Roxas Will Lose Due to Automated Elections
May 15th, 2010

Why is Manuel A. Roxas or Mar Roxas trailing behind (or might lose to) Jejomar C. Binay in the Philippine Vice-Presidential race? In the past months before the May 10 elections, Mar Roxas had been leading in most, if not all, electoral surveys for vice-presidents. His lead was not even near to his closest opponent, [...]
Philippine Election 2010 Automation – A Failure?
May 10th, 2010
2 Comments
A TV host said that the Filipino ingenuity came out in the ongoing Philippine national election. Why? Being the first ever election to be automated using the precinct count optical scan (PCOS) election machine, the fear of malfunctions happening in poll locations around the country is high. And the widespread fear seems to be coming [...]
Is Terry Lakin Brainless?
May 8th, 2010

Thanks CNN’s host Anderson Cooper for showing to us that Terry Lakin, a U.S. Army officer who refuses to follow President Obama’s orders, has no brain at all. Pardon me, but that is how I see it after watching an episode of CNN last night. Lakin did not answer simple questions from Anderson Cooper CNN [...]
The Rick Sanchez Stupidity Acts
March 2nd, 2010

There goes the stupidity of CNN’s Rick Sanchez again! I really dislike the foolish, dumb-acting stunts of Rick Sanchez on his show. Are Sanchez’s viewers kindergartens, that he had to ask questions like, what a 9-meter drop is? Or was his intention to embarrass his guests on live TV?
Retarded Sarah Palin’s Retarded Reaction
February 7th, 2010
No Comments
Ex-Governor Sarah Palin needs to examine her mental capacity. Really. She used to be a governor, but how in the hell she does not even know the meaning of the word ‘retard’ or ‘retarded’? So when Rush Limbaugh used the word ‘retarded’ it was okay for Sarah Palin, even if Limbaugh intended to hit someone. [...]
Philippine Reproductive Health Bill (HB5043) – Bogus Campaign
January 7th, 2010
No Comments
Some people I know have been spreading email that is intended for the Philippine Congress. It is about the campaign to oppose the passage of the Philippine Reproductive Health Bill (HB5043). I read through the seven points cited in the document and then went through the sections and paragraphs of the bill that these “concerned [...]
