As posted in another forum by someone named Caloy:
Another posting by a man, also named Caloy (it could be the same author who posted the above) wrote the following:
Both postings can be found here: http://antipinoy.com/the-non-platform-of-noynoy-aquino/ Hopefully this coming election, people won’t be persuaded by all the celebrities endorsing NoyNoy. I don't like any of of these celebrities anyway - they are the ones who irritate me the most. HEHEH...If Noynoy is really pro Pinoy, or pro-poor he should include Hacienda Luisita in the CARP. |

I just don't understand this. Pres. Cory dies due to cancer then Noynoy becomes a hero? I didn't see that coming. Noynoy, except for his surname, is practically invisible in the service for like 20 years! Suddenly his mom died and he runs for president? A traditional politician. An opportunist, I must say. My sympathies are with him but my purple thumb is NOT. I dare the Noynoy cultists to justify why Noynoy deserves to be president without making any references to EDSA/People Power, Cory, Ninoy, Gloria, the so-called Aquino legacy, vague notions of evil and corruption, or any of the other candidates. Will there be anything left of Noynoy if we strip him down to just himself? My observation is most people vote not what they think is right but who they feel is right. And this is the reason why we had Erap, why we almost had FPJ & why we have/had useless actors and actresses in government. Everybody, it seems, is just feeling their way towards a decision -- instead of thinking -- and we will all be damned for it. |

Forbes.com SCENARIOS-What the market expects from next Philippine leader http://www.forbes.com/feeds/reuters/2009/12/01/2009-12-01T072548Z_01_MAN118467_RTRIDST_0_PHILIPPINES-POLITICS-SCENARIOS-PIX.html SENATOR BENIGNO "NOYNOY" AQUINO, LIBERAL PARTY The son of former president Corazon "Cory" Aquino has surged ahead in opinion polls, campaigning on the need to remove corruption and introduce "real" political reforms. Aquino has an economics degree but no experience as an economist. Though a congressman for nine years, and senator for nearly three years, his track record in promoting legislation is not impressive. Since announcing his candidacy in September, Aquino has yet to lay down a clear platform on how to address the country's economic problems. The market is nervous about an Aquino administration because he has little executive or managerial experience. Some fear his administration would become similar to his mother's government, which went into a cycle of booms and busts with no clear policy direction due to competing interest groups within her Cabinet. Aquino has a very competent economic manager, Senator Manuel "Mar" Roxas, a former investment banker running as his vice president. Roxas is acceptable to the market, but the business sector is worried he is only one of the interest groups in Aquino's circle. Critics worry Aquino will not run the country but the people around him will be, including his younger sister, movie and television personality Kris Aquino |

Noynoy’s cough From: http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideBusop.htm?f=2009/november/18/vicagustin.isx&d=/2009/november/18 A CONCERNED Kris Aquino has gone public about her brother’s thinning hair but more than the balding pate, the actress should probably pay more attention to his persistent, and apparently worsening, smoker’s cough. The Liberal Party’s press conference on Monday to announce the senatorial slate was held in the morning, and yet the party’s standard bearer, the chain-smoking Benigno Aquino III, was already coughing and running out of breath barely mid-way into his brief address. According to the grapevine, the harsh throat clearing and hawking—more than his mouth often being caught open on TV—had already been red-flagged by Aquino’s campaign advisers to no avail. It was a good thing, or was it more than a coincidence, that Aquino’s running mate, Manuel Roxas II, had had to answer and had to take the heat off that morning from his principal and confront the media pests about the left wing noise on Hacienda Luisita. Otherwise, the adoring and unquestioning 44 percent of the voters might have been jolted to the unpleasant reality: the son of a martyr and the Edsa I heroine apparently does not have the discipline and the fortitude to kick off an unhealthy habit that poses a threat not only to his candidacy but also, heaven forbid, to his possible presidency. Money-go-round • Pulse Asia, the Diliman-based survey firm that released a pro-Aquino-Roxas survey results on Monday, was initially bankrolled by telecom heir and Noynoy Aquino’s second cousin Antonio Cojuangco Jr. and, until last year, had another cousin, Rafael Lopa, as president.

Filipinos got too emotional when they voted for Pnoy even with what little he did during his time in Congress or Senate. It was a very costly mistake. The drug trade proliferated during his term. Yolanda rescue & rehab was a big bust. The billions of dollars donated by foreign countries are still unaccounted for. Relief goods rotted under Dinky. The PDAF & DAP issues, political persecutions, the Luneta massacre, the MRT/LRT problems, the SAF44 massacre & many more issues transpired during Pnoy's time. Some we are still discovering today under Duterte. And I think the voters also made a mistake in voting for Hontiveros, De Lima, Pangilinan, Trollanes and Frank Drilon. They are bad news for the country in my opinion. Our country would be better off without them. |
