Sotto, akin wala kad tan ed Sinado? Why are you there in the Senate? Resign at once.

Anggapoy kababaingan ton talaga yan Vicente "Tito Escalera" Sotto III. Nan-graduate ya AB English ed Letran balet ag to amta so talos na plagiarism.

Imbis ya nansukay tan sikatoy nansulat ed speech to, inpagawa to ya ag to met ninengneng no duga iray insulsulat daray speechwriters to.

Natan malinlinew ed petek na agew ya tinakew to ray kanonotan daray arum ya totoo. Et masaol ni ta iray arum et pinekewet toy talos to pian onsuporta ed posisyon ton kontra ed RH Bill.

Say balbaleg ya tepet: akin ta akayorong ditan ed Sinado so sakey ya tonto?

Si Sotto et sakey ya insulto ed inkatalisiw. Diad Inglis, Sotto is an insult to intelligence.

Why are you there in the Senate, Sotto?

Lapud inbotos day totoo ya agangganon  atanggoyor ed maltaw ton ngaran lapu lantid naynay ya nanengneng ed TV.

In the first place, why did he run as senator when he knew that he is not apt for the job? Why did the political party he was affiliated with invite him to run in their banner? It is because he was popular, popular as comedian and as a clown.

Sotto and all the other artistas had no humility in themselves that they run for candidacy to save a flagging career in showbiz. Filipinos suffer because of Sotto's et al. glaring incompetence and lack of  moral scruples.

Can these actors and actresses stop intruding into politics and shy away from running as senators or congressmen? What will they do there? Manbotbot ya irungan kuanda odino banglesen day katay da ta ag ira makapansalita.

Let us bring back meritocracy into Philippine politics, not mediocrity of Sotto, Revilla, Lapid, types.

The remedy that I see is to return the election of senators by district so that the best of the regions, presently unrepresented, misrepresented and underrepresented, will be elected to the Senate. Or better, abolish the Senate by shifting our political system to parliamentary federal form of government.

Of course, Sotto who does not have any delicadeza at all that he ran for the senate wont resign.

Sakey ya tepet ni: siopay aalageyan nen Sotto ya masiadoy pansomlang to ed RH bill? CBCP? Letran?

Philippine-US military defense pact: Anggapoy kakanaan to! (Useless)

Nen katantaon, say US angiter na 24 ex-US Air National Guard F-16 fighter jets ed Indonesia. Kekerewen ya na Pilipinas ed US balet say angiteran to so Indonesia ya anggapo met so defense pact dan dua.

Manggegeget tak ed saya.

I am seething in anger having known this.

The US gave F-16 jets to Indonesia when it had no defense pact with that country.

I believe it is really the policy of the US to make us perpetually dependent to them in terms of military defense.

They are saying that they will help us with "minimum" credible defense.

We must not be content with "minimum." We must make it to the maximum. Let us now develop our nuclear capability!

The Dodds report shows that during the time of Truman administration it was their policy to make the Philippines the raw material supplier to Japan in the latter's rehabilitation.

Makaayewak ya talaga ed Amerika.

We must now cut off the last vestige of our dependence to the US. This is real independence.

We must envision to become a maritime power in the Asia-Pacific.


Our approach to our security must be multilateral.

1. Sign a military pact with Japan. I think Japan is more sincere in helping us than the US. Secure Japanese technology in building ships.

2. Establish defense alliance with Russia. Secure Russian technology in building submarines, nuclear missiles, naval carriers.

3. Sign a nuclear agreement with Iran.

4. Develop military ties with Spain and Latin America.

5. Establish military alliance with Vietnam.

6. Strengthen political and economic ties with Brunei.

7. If the South China sea dispute is resolved, strengthen military and economic ties with the People's Republic of China.

RH bill: Say inkatangawtangaw di Villegas tan Cruz (The ignorance of Villegas and Cruz)

No siopa ray kongrisista tan sinador (Enrile, Sotto) ya onsosomlang ed ipasa na RH bill, kapara iran tangawtangaw ya sikara di Villegas tan Cruz.

Duaran taga-Bataan so nansublay ya nanbenben ed Arsobispado na Lingayen-Dagupan ya agda amta so mansalitay Pangasinan. Akin iraya - sikara Cruz tan Villegas - numiro unon mimibiang ed agda kaokolan ya pibiangan so inmirong tan akairong, duaran Tagalog so manmando ed saray Katoliko ya Pangasinense?

Nanaral iraya na doktorado ed ley ya kanon balet iray argumento da somlang ed RH bill et makapoy, aga ninonot ta anggapon talagay ilaban da ed manepeg ya pankaokolan ya nipasa so ley.

Villegas declares, "Contraception is corruption." But I dare say, "It is the Catholic Church, which is the hotbed of corruption."

Natan nitan lay Cruz ya patron nen Villegas ya say kuanto: "The Reproductive Health bill does not like life, hates life, wants to do away with life!"

How ignorant! Ag to binasa may intiron bill.

In fact, the RH bill is pro-life. Those who oppose it like Cruz and Villegas are the ones who are anti-life.

Villegas even used the Pangasinan language to justify his claim that Pangasinans do not know or practice contraception. There is no Pangasinan word, he said, for contraception. How did he know it when in fact he does not know Pangasinan?

He does not know that Pangasinans before the Spaniards came practice infanticide when they think that having so many children would make them poor. In other words, this is at worst a form of family-planning.  We cannot say this is barbarism  because we cannot judge the early Pangasinans why they committed such practice but they must have been very practical.

RH bill is pro-life because it cares for the life of the mother and the living children. It gives the guarantee that the mother could live a healthy life with proper medication and that the children could be pampered, nourished and educated in a family that is properly provided for. It gives the mother or the woman to choose between artificial and natural method.

The status quo does not provide the minimum condition for a mother or a woman to have the critical choice in upholding life for her and for her existing children if she has given birth.

The RH bill promotes life by making sure that those who had been born as a child and as a mother would be given the maximum security to continue living and enjoy life. 

The anti-RH people do not realize that by rejecting the bill they are sanctioning the continued deprivation of the guarantee that makes the mother and her children alive because with unmitigated family reproduction it does not only endanger the life of the mother who is the bearer of the seed of life but also threatens the lives of her existing children. A family of twelve children would no doubt illustrate this: two or three would suffer from malnutrition resulting in death, the remaining nine would struggle to go to school perhaps with five getting to elementary grades while others would help their parents for their livelihood . In times of epidemic or calamity, with poor health and a shoestring budget, some members would die of disease and starvation. Some would get married at a young age repeating the cycle.

This had been the scenario and the Philippine Roman Catholic church wants to perpetuate it. It is anti-life. It promotes the viciousness of poverty, lack of informed choice and ignorance.

I am beginning to believe more and more that the Philippine Roman Catholic church is a factor in the underdevelopment of the country. First, it is a church of opulence in a sea of poverty. Second, it is not a beacon of enlightenment; it is more the instrument of darkness by perpetuation of medieval ideas. Third and last, it is a church that is bent in protecting its self-interests cavorting with powers-that-be than keeping its flock.
