Senator Trillanes to attend Senate Sessions
It’s just sad to see Joker and my once favorite Miriam Santiago be weighed down by becoming political mongrels of a sham president. I mean, these two senators have been recognized for their being outspoken and upright, for defending the Constitution and shaming the people that trample on it and it’s laws. What the hell could have made these two seasoned senators turn their backs on justice and become nothing more than mere puppets? They’ve lost their vigor and, not to mention, their sanity in joining the midget’s side. Too sad, really.
But what’s even more annoying is the fact that Escudero, Pangilinan and Peter Cayetano are said to have jumped over the administration’s fence as well. These young senators were given the people’s trust and confidence to bring down PGMA and forward her impeachment case. Gosh, even Manny Villar is rumored to have joined the pro-GMA group! No wonder the GO senators are grinding their teeth in rage.
But honestly, I do not see Legarda or Lacson as true oppositionists. If given enough time, I think these two have their own agendas to tend to when 2010 arrives. But for now, I guess they’re trying to join the people’s group, the supposed GO, to gain massive support. But really, can we trust them? I don’t. Whenever I see Legarda’s face on t.v., I can’t help but get annoyed by her smug and stiff expressions and seemingly insincere intentions. And when Lacson appears on t.v., I get the impression that if he’ll become president on 2010, the whole country will be under a cloud of pseudo martial law where everyone is tapped and monitored.
So I pose this question: do we have true oppotionists in the Senate? Or if there are, are they for the people?

French Version of Survivor in Palawan
Why be excited about Survivor: China…
If we could get more excited about this!
The seventh season of Koh Lanta, the French version of Survivor, had its contestants stranded on the remotest islands of Palawan. It began broadcasting last month.
And apparently, the Philippines is among the most frequent Survivor locations, aside from Malaysia, Dominican Republic, and Panama. Palawan became the site for the Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, and the Dutch/Belgian versions. Meanwhile, the third season of the Japanese version was done in Siquijor.

Would you like to be exiled to Dapitan?
Figure it out: What was it like to be deported and exiled 115 years ago, when there were no telephone, malls, family, and faster means of transportation? And your only link to the world was through a snail mail, which perhaps you could not even depend upon because you fear that perhaps, the Spaniards were prying into your letters to Josephine Bracken or Ferdinand Blumentritt.
