^^bai FK para makalro gyud imo baruganan ba..asa man ka na side sa opposition or kang PGMA??..no offense ha pero kung election pa ron ba..mura kag flying voter nga walai gilabanan na side.

hehehehe... ako flying voter? kong wala ko gi-labanan klaro, flying voter na ko? nice analogy.
flying voter bai kanang wala'y baroganan... kanang mo ingon 'WALA KO'Y PAKI KINSA MO DAUG... basta MAKADAWAT LANG KO. MAO NA AKO BOTARAN.'

by principle i'm opposition because i don't agree with the administration... but if you are trying to say that i'm for the opposition figure, NO. I'm no loyalist/fanatic.

akong baruganan bai kay against ko sa mga binoang... might it be from the opposition or administration, and i'm really hopeful mga mo lihok ang ato institution... like the impeachment perhaps. But if there would be rallies dili nako na sila i-blame... coz it is the governments own doing that invited them.

Bay fk if i may add. We are supposed to be a democracy. The strength of democracy lies in its institutions. You destroy one of these institutions you destroy democracy. You destroy the credibility of the elections of tthis country you destroy democracy.

You destroy its institutions, you invite destability wwhich is what happening now. GMA is reaping what she sow.

for me, the declaration is uncalled for. ni announce na man kaha sila nga they quashed the attempted coup, so everything is under control. the police could still enforce the no-permit-no-rally policy even without the declaration of a state of emergency.

@slakker:

agree...

with this... they are just inviting more trouble.

Wow! Bravo! What a way to celebrate EDSA 1 anniversarry. GMA could not have chosen a perfect date. Karon pa gyud!

Martial Law there you go again. Warrantless arrest, curfews, involuntary disappearance, political repression, suppression of the freedom of expression and other basic freedoms. . .etc. Worse pa ni sa Komunista.

Mohinay ang piso ani unya mokusog pa gyud ang NPA! Thank you Mrs Arroyo, you give the NPA a good reason for recruitment.

Thank you GMA by doing so, you hasten your downfall.

Democracy sucks, the Phillipines isn't ready for it yet, we aren't mature enough as a nation for all it's promises of freedom. Sure we have freedom, but do we use it responsibly? No, we might be able to make do with a communism or a dictatorship for now, the peasants need to know their place.

By peasants I mean those who are in Manila who whine and gripe and moan over anything and everything, they can get jobs, if not permanent ones, they can do part time things. But perhaps it would be better if they died, they wouldn't encumber us with their prescence anymore for one.

Martial law, communism, despotism, democracy, they come and go when the need for them arises. Who cares what the government calls itself just as long as we get by until the next president comes around.

If the next president isn't influenced by the erap ousting then we'll be fine, the main reason for all this hubbub is that most politicians still haven't gotten over edsa 2. That one event divided the country more than those idiots will ever know...

Constitutionalist Joaquin Bernas feels that the current sitution and how the administration takes action against the rallyist are similar during Martial Law.

May bag-o pa anang mga rallyista? kusog mag-inartista para lang maka baton ug simpatiya...OA ra kaayo....

[GOKOU]

wait lang ta unsa jud ang reason behind why ni declare jud ang president ug state of emergency. but for now they are still investigating kinsa jud ang involve. ok ra cgro na ang warrantless arrest as long as no harm will be done to those arrested.

i really am not in favor of this coz it will weaken our economy.
