I HAVE been saying this time and time again. There are only two kinds of people that have supported and continue supporting Noynoy Aquino and his kind, i.e. Mar Roxas, Antonio Trillanes, Leni Robredo, Leila de Lima, Franklin Drilon, etc. – either they are idiots or profit from them.
There can be no middle ground as any sensible discerning fellow will immediately see the incompetence and the corruption of these “yellow devotees.” Let’s start with this “yellow” thing; the symbol of every Filipino is the Philippine flag and not a “yellow ribbon.”
The Philippine flag represents the struggles of the Filipino nation for freedom and independence while the “yellow ribbon” is a line taken from some tacky American pop song about a convict that was released and going home. The “yellow ribbon” symbolizes this released convict’s longing for a girl he left home and he wants to know if she still wants him; I don’t see any parallel with the struggle of the Filipino. The only parallel I see is that during that time the Filipino people have largely forgotten Ninoy Aquino and he needed to spark the people’s interest in him again to fulfill his political ambitions. Thus the need for some symbol if the people still wanted him. Of course we all know he was no hero, just a megalomaniac inflicted with a severe case of entitlement.
You really have to be an idiot out of touch with reality to swallow “hook, line and sinker” the lies peddled by Rappler, ABS-CBN and the Philippine Daily Inquirer. Let’s take for example that much abused figure of 7,000 alleged dead victims of President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs.
That’s absolutely bullocks!
Have you ever been to Tacloban right at the aftermath of super typhoon “Haiyan” or “Yolanda” in local parlance? I’m pretty sure that less than point one percent of all those trendy social climber airheads that believe as gospel truth Rappler, ABS-CBN and the Philippine Daily Inquirer have been to typhoon-ravaged Tacloban.
The official figures of the casualties of “Yolanda” as ordered by Noynoy Aquino was 6,000 and if you have been to Tacloban right at the aftermath of the typhoon, the streets were literally littered with corpses months after. Because of the incompetence of Mar Roxas in handling the situation, the streets were still littered with this time rotten corpses.
The funeral parlors were filled to the brim, there was a severe shortage of body bags; take note folks, we are talking here of 6,000 dead bodies which were a thousand less than 7,000.
Are the streets of Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao and Iloilo littered with dead bodies? Is there a shortage of body bags and the funeral parlors filled to the brim? Take note that according to the “yellow ribbon devotees” there are 7,000 casualties of President Rodrigo Duterte’s drug wars.
Offhand it’s a war and in any war we should expect casualties.
I don’t think anybody has seen the streets of Metro Manila and the rest of the major cities littered with 7,000 dead bodies because there are none. Or maybe the Duterte government is just very efficient in cleaning up the streets of 7,000 dead bodies faster than you can say Mar Roxas.
And you have to be an idiot to believe the ridiculous statements of Edgar Matobato and Arthur Lascañas as both their testimonies were not accepted by the Senate due to the fact that they were fabricated lies.
The only reason why there is an orchestrated campaign to vilify President Rodrigo Duterte with the ultimate objective to bring him down is not because they hate him (of course they do) but to save themselves. And you may ask save whom, why and here’s why:
One, the Prietos, owners of the Philippine Daily Inquirer and Dunkin Donuts, are facing a huge tax evasion case to the amount of P1.5 billion which the Bureau of Internal Revenue sat down during the presidency of Noynoy Aquino, and now President Rodrigo Duterte wants the BIR to collect.
Not only that; the Prietos owe rent on the state-owned prime Makati property called the Creekside/Mile Long complex which the Rufino/Prieto family, the main owners of the Philippine Daily Inquirer (PDI), owe government — but to this day have not paid — would total a mammoth P1.8 billion, computed up to May this year, according to a government suit filed in 2009, this in a Manila Times article.
So you see why it is paramount that Duterte be removed from office and a friendly, one i.e. Leni Robredo, takes over?
And in the case of ABS-CBN, their franchise to operate will expire on 2020 unless renewed by Congress. They applied for renewal last 2014 during Noynoy Aquino’s term who, of course, is friendly to ABS-CBN (remember Kris Aquino was the media queen). Unfortunately for them, events i.e. Mamasapano Massacre have overtaken them.
Now they need to file for renewal again. Unfortunately for them, the President is Rodrigo Duterte whom they vilified and slandered.
To rub salt to their wounds, President Rodrigo Duterte recently announced he will stop the franchise renewal of ABS-CBN.
Now you see why they want to bring him down? It has nothing to do with love of country but love of themselves.
And the same is true with Leila de Lima, Antonio Trillanes, Franklin Drilon and the “yellow” oligarchs. With President Rodrigo Duterte gone, they save themselves from being held accountable for the corruption and plunder they did under the blessing of that nincompoop Noynoy Aquino.
So are you an idiot or a profiteer? (brotherlouie16@gmail.com/PN)
