False Everything

Last Novermber 29, Trillanes staged a failed coup. Iâ€™d like to call it a definite â€˜coupâ€™ because itâ€™s stupid to just call it a â€™situationâ€™, as the government wants to, when everyone got tensed as a senator, a former VP, a former UP president, 2 priests, a general and several other civilians and some armed Magdalo soldiers marched from the Makati City RTC to the Manila Peninsula to demand PGMA out and to establish their new government. Their walk was actually a strut to challenge the current administration. And Trillanes was the embodiment of that â€™strutâ€™.

Last elections, 11 million people have voted Trillanes to Congress. His win was noted as a vote against PGMA but letâ€™s not mistake that and say heâ€™s the new charismatic Gringo or the messiah weâ€™ve been clamoring for. Sure, the majority wants PGMA out but what the senator did was merely out of arrogance and impatience. As a senator, and being a senator on trial, heâ€™s got much more responsibilities now than what he had back in 2003 in Oakwood. Back then, he had to shoulder the soldiers but now he carries the good name of the law, the constitution and the people who trusted and voted him. To boycott your trial is irresponsible. To walk out of your trial and hostage a hotel is asking for trouble. To walk out of your trial, hostage a hotel and demand the president to step down so you could form your new government is just juvenile.
