Talking about criminals being elected into office you would not go that far to find one. The regime itself is a criminal. It deprived the people of it's mandate to oust them in the 2004 election. They incarcerate people who witnessed the cheating and gagged their mouth with utmost prohibition to testify before a legislative inquiry on the famous "Garci" election scandal. And this is the most identified reason why the administration candidates were having "bananas"for lunch after the election with an almost sweeping victory of the GO. |

He must realize that he can air or should had aired his gripes in the Magdalo mutiny through constitutional means rather than extra-constitutional means. In my own humble opinion, the man lost his credibility and integrity when he ran and won. Implicit admittance that one can exhaust all possible legal remedies rather than resorting to violence or armed uprising under Arroyo's or Aquino's regime. My sympathies for Esperon, Bacarro, and Arroyo and her political party for passing legislation allowing him to run and win. They gave Trillanes a weapon or a knife with which he can use to stab them. The law maybe harsh but it is the law! |

Esperon, Bacarro, & Arroyo has nothing to do with any legislation allowing Trillanes to run. It was his (Trillanes) inherent right to run for public office as a Filipino citizen as enshrined in the constitution. Nothing could bar him because at the time of his candidacy, he still stand as an accused and never been convicted of any crime. It's quite simple and elementary for a layman to undertstand the presumption of innocence until proven otherwise. Hence, Mr. Trillanes at the moment is still free from any criminal dirt. |

The acquittal of people who are in the same situation as Trillanes like Ocampo, Beltran is living proof that we can atttain our objectives by way of exhausting all possible legal remedies rather than resorting to mutiny, violence or armed uprising. The impeachment process is another living proof that we can also exhaust them. The repeated filing of impeachment cases against Arroyo and the victory accorded to Trillanes are also proof. He can now influence policy making as senator, pass laws that would improve the plight of soldiers and impeach ARrroyo. All because one can exhaust all possible legal remedies under Cory and ARroyo government. The best thing for Trillanes nowadays is not to attempt another incident, lend support to the incumbent government for their anti-insurgency drive, and be a constructive critic of ARroyo instead of destructive and refrain from asking her to resign. She is the lawful incumbent. Trillanes has to wait till 2008 which is the time that she will retire. For the meantime, he should support government programs while planning his next moves to impeach Arroyo. I got fired Friday and got reinstated Wednesday through the "kindness" of your fellow PNP police officer, RD. I would like to quote your "kind" fellow police officer: " I can make my daughters single again if I like to" "I did not finance your legal education without anything in return" "When a wife[referring to ARroyo and Aquino) is beaten by her husband, you should come to her rescue and attend to her or "else bakla ka..ungentlemanly... kuha mo... "You can improvise... can't you.. you attended law school" And he is your fellow PNP police officer..Tarant___! I wonder why the British allowed him to roam Birmingham and make me repeat after him... |

This is an amazing story. Two Generals are willing to support Senator Trillanes by giving key dossiers to open a can of worms relevant to the already ruptured human rights records of the regime, that could prompt a Senate inquiry or investigation when the next Senate starts it's business. Senator Trillanes is also keen to rekindle the investigation of the 2004 "Hello Garci"election scam which the regime has already swept under the carpet.

I just wonder about Sen.Trillanes' consistency. I understand he went to Oakwood to challenge a corrupt system. His participation in the electoral process -- a process he alleges to have been corrupted -- doesn't seem to jive with his statements in Oakwood. At any rate, I am pleased to see that many voted for him, because it indicates a disagreement with the current administration. I hope that Sen. Trillanes will live up to the trust the people have placed in him. |

True, in principle he should not have participated in an excercise where he was critical to be corrupt - not until he himself would consider it reformed. The majority who voted for him were not even assured by their own thinking that Trillanes can successfully steer the boat loaded with his proposed reforms if elected, but, just to show their desperation to express widely their disapproval of the present regime and to remind the latter that the 2004 mandate was highly questionable. |

May I remind you that Arroyo's political party still dominates Congress. She still has the support of the people. It's a form of mandate she has earned by way of improving the economy. |
