Arroyo or Estrada?

President Gloria Arroyo

Former President Joseph Estrada

Hindi man katanggap-tanggap sa atin ang naging pahayag ng COMELEC na payagang tumakbo muli sa pagka-pangulo si Estrada kahit labag ito sa Saligang Batas ng ating bansa, mas kinikilala ko parin siya bilang isang Pangulo kaysa sa naka-upo ngayon. Mas tanggap ko na ang pagtakbo niya muli kaysa sa pagtakbo ng isa sa Kongreso. Kahit ano mang sabihin ng iba na intellectually superior si Arroyo kaysa kay Estrada, wala pa ring patunay ito. Hindi naman napaganda ng current administration ang ekonomiya kahit mas matalino ang pangulo. Mas mataas pa nga ang GDP growth noong panahon ni Estrada kaysa kay Arroyo. Yun lang, talo na siya. Hindi rin natin dapat kalimutan that Estrada willfully faced his accusers. Binitiwan niya ang pagka-pangulo. Hindi naglabas si Estrada ng CPR o Calibrated PreEmptive Response para lang kontrolin ang mga mamamayang nagagalit sa kanya. Wala ring Oplan Bantay Laya na haharang sa mga babatikos sa kanya. Hinarap niya ang mga accussations sa kanya. Hindi siya nag I’m sorry pero patuloy paring hinawakan ang pagka-pangulo. Walang nangyaring pag-sesensor sa mga nagsasalita laban sa kanya, radyo man o TV. Corruption at plunder ang pinakamalaking pagkakamali ni Estrada. Pero ang pangulo ngayon, siya na mismo ang pagkakamali. Si Estrada, ibinoto at inihalal ng mga tao, naluklok siyang alam nating naging tunay ang eleksyon hindi katulad ng pumalit sa kanya na walang mandate at nadaan lamang sa Hello Garci ang pagkahalal. If I were to choose between the two, Estrada is the man.

I’ve just read a 150 peso autobiography of Senator Chiz Escudero. It’s entitled Say ni Chiz. It’s quite revealing and entertaining. The whole book is written in conversational Taglish. I tried to copy his style by doing a Taglish post here. Anyway, you’d really love how he told his life in the book. It is also accompanied by simple drawings known as comics. It also revealed the personal side of him. Give it a try!

Fidel and Religion: Conversations with Frei Betto | MY | TWO | CENTS |

Title: Fidel and Religion: Conversations with Frei Betto on Marxism and Liberal Theology

Category: Social Studies

Rate: 5 out of 5 :D

Fidel Castro, the great Cuban leader is interviewed by Frei Betto, a brazillian priest and libreation theologist, on an informal setting with far-ranging topics that will interest Catholics and non-Catholics alike. :D The conversation includes a history of Fidel Castro's life, his early education, his belief about religion and his refutations about socialism as an anti-religion ideology.

One may read this book and fall in love with Fidel Castro, or one may read this and go hunt Castro's head. A must-read boooook for all! :D Yey!

I'm currently reading a Castro book. Its title is "No One Can Stop the Course of History."

Chillax!

PHYSICS LOVE — BLUE BOOK SHIRTS

I had fun kaninang nat sci 1 namin conversing with lady Castillon about her recent relationship. Though hindi naman talaga siya conversation, conversation pa rin siya in a sense na we talk about it. nah .. blah .. blah .. make sense naman diba?

i know na hindi. haha. =)

That time we were discussing kinetic energy, potential energy, inertial frame and such sa class. So ayun, the conversation turned into something funny. oh well, para sa akin its funny na. XD

cleve: steady?dien: hindi na kaya. hindi na steady .. as in wala na.

cleve: kinetic energy na?

dien. oo. nag mo2ve on na.

cleve: moving on? motion. haha. kinetic energy na nga.

dien: yeah.

cleve: pero relative ang kinetic energy diba? so baka in his point of view, di ka maka move on, potential energy ka lang.

dien: (laughs)
