Global Warming Excuses Vandals
What if the court rules in favor of the wrong doers? What if the crime was done to stop the victim from preventing the sun to shine? And the criminal is freed after doing you harm. This is the verdict of the UK court that cleared the group of Greenpeace leftists of criminal damages they have inflicted to a power station. See more at Warming Sun
Sarah Failin’ on Bristol Parenting
Proper growth and development are the fundamental requisites of family values. The upbringing of the child is defined by the method of childhood education learned from the family’s moral ethics. The acts exhibited in other place may be mirrored by the practices and behavioral activities at home. And the family aiming the Whitehouse seems to show they need more to be polished and be attuned to the standard to be looked upon as the American family model.
But such standard may not be met as Sarah herself, from the start, broke the tradition of marriage. see more Pinoy Barking Hall
I Too For Barack Obama
Barack Obama is the man to beat. With just a mention of his name, I cannot avoid to ask who he is and what make his name a music to my ears. The name itself suggests the change in the American political preferences. In the previous list of names for presidential nominees, a black sounding name is seldom included. And how Obama reach the level of prominence in the political arena only show that racial factor is no longer a hindrance to achieve top political stead.
An African-American being nominated in a major political party is an uncommon line in the political chapter of US history. Obama’s nomination displayed the political maturity of the American people. This is the place which was once an oasis of freedom and justice which only the whites enjoy the unrestricted mobility. The days of the fifties and sixties are over and the seeds sown by Martin Luther King, Georgia Powers, and Rosa Park are now bearing fruits and Obama is now harvesting. I believe Obama is destined to set foot in the Whitehouse to make the necessary “change” and fulfill the famous “I Have A Dream” obsession. Obama is the image of Martin Luther King who have come back “to cash his check” in a society where the blacks are issued a bouncing check before. See more @

Spratly: Time is Running Out
With the problem of MILF secessionist taking the headlines, the issue of Spratly and the Baseline Bill are now gathering dust in the shelves of congress. Time is running out. House Bill 3216 otherwise known as “An Act Defining the Archipelagic Baselines of the Philippine Archipelago, Amending for the Purpose Republic Act 3046, as Amended by Republic Act 5446” should now be passed or discussed in congress.
The United Nations Convention on the Laws of the Sea (UNCLOS) requires every archipelagic nations to establish its archipelagic baseline by May 2009 or else the exclusive economic zone shall become an international waters or be owned by the neighboring countries claiming such territorial boundaries. Spratly group of islands are being claimed by China, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei, and Taiwan; and the way Philippine officials are conducting themselves dragging the baseline law in the sidelines of “kangkongan” so many years overdue, it won’t be far that we will be left again eating the dust in the “pancitan.” It has been almost ten years now since UNCLOS gave the time limit on May 13, 1999 and we have only eight months left to fast-track the Baseline Law or we will be knocking our heads on the wall in disgrace.

Based on what the MILF is doing in the past days we can conclude a picture of inhumanity complete with animosity and atrocious leadership they are likely to commit if ever they succeed to carve a self-governing pan-Islamic state out of Mindanao. I have always seen throughout history nations founded upon the blood of armies, rebels or secret societies, but never has such an act of using the people as human shields been untenable inasmuch as it reflects the true colors of the bandits’ agendum in raising up arms against the status quo state; that they are moving according to the MILF’s vested interest and nothing more, not of the people, neither of Islam. They are making a fallacious logic whenever they involve the name of God (Allah) in their tempestuous undertakings, a notable one being that in the deceptive Mess of Agreement of Ancestral Domains, which begins:
IN THE NAME OF GOD THE BENEFICENT, THE MERCIFUL
MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT ON THE ANCESTRAL DOMAIN ASPECT OF THE GRP-MILF TRIPOLI AGREEMENT ON PEACE OF 2001
Yes, they are extolling God before they go raiding towns, open firing on everyone and hacking innocent residents with machetes and burning homes down to the ground, then they hostage the remaining civilians and use them as human shields upon voicing retreat. I’ve never heard of George Washington, Simon Bolivar, José de San Martin or Andres Bonifacio doing the same thing back in the old “Enlightenment” days of countries. Perhaps in the Balkans Kosovar Albanians were harassed and used as human shields back in ‘99, but it was Slobodan Milosevic’s status quo government who allegedly carried them out. [continue reading]
Mugabe Wins Re-election
I was watching Channel News Asia’s morning show this morning. I was surprised to read on their running headlines that incumbent Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe wins re-election. This happened after his opponent Morgan Tsvangirai back down his Presidential candidacy to prevent more violence and killings targeted to his supporters and political party.

Why Do Some Countries Remain Poor While Others Grow Rich?
This is a question that has never stopped nagging me since the very first time I left this country eleven years ago. It is one thing seeing it on television growing up, it is another being in the First World yourself. Explanations by the likes of F. Sionil Jose – which basically say we are poor because of our culture – is simply unsatisfactory. Read here.
TV Advertisements of Senators
Senate President Manny Villar’s TV commercial about his helping to OFW was circulating during primetime TV. If Bayani Fernando was known for his early campaigning with his huge billboards, Senate President Manny Villar is known for his TV commercials. The richest Philippine Senator I suppose funded for this TV commercial just to let the public known his presence. As if the public aren’t aware that he is already campaigning.

Bayani Fernando Billboard Update
Last Friday on our flight home to Manila, I was reading the Inquirer with Bayani Fernando on the news article. The article has something to do with his well-criticized MMDA billboards. He again insisted that there’s nothing wrong with his huge billboards in EDSA. Even it is clear to the public that it is illegal use of public funds. Do you think Filipinos are dumb to accept your billboards? What good did it do to the Filipinos? Clearly none. It’s just plain campaigning for your political dream in 2010.
What’s more disgusting with Bayani Fernando was his comment that it shouldn’t be thought of as campaigning since he is not smiling in his billboards. Great answer right? Nah!
