Shame on You, Jamby Madrigal!!!

I saw Jim Paredes' tweet with a link about what Jamby Madrigal did during Cory Aquino's funeral. It's a facebook blog post revealing that the politician distributed yellow bracelets to people at the funeral WITH HER (JAMBY's) PHOTO. This made my heart burn with anger. Another human being with no conscience. The whole nation will remember this evil thing you've done come the next election! You don't deserve our vote!

Hindi lang yan. I saw another politician shaking hands with people, flashing his sweet, endearing smile. Nangangampanya at nagpapabango ng pangalan habang nagluluksa tayong lahat sa pagkamatay ni Pres. Cory. Talaga bang wala kayong konsensya? Kampanya sa funeral procession? Evil! So evil! Hindi ko kayo iboboto, at kahit konti lang ang kilala kong botante, ikakampanya ko na wag kayong suportahan. Asan ba ang konsensya nyo???

Attached are photos of the bracelet. This was taken and posted by the person who wrote the blog on Facebook. I do not intend to use it for my own benefit. I just want readers to know.

My Expression of Outrage to the Ruthless Willie Revillame

I read an article online, saying that on August 3, 2009, during Willie's show "Wowowee" (which I NEVER and will NEVER watch in my lifetime), the live coverage of President Cory's cortege being transferred from LSGH to Manila Cathedral was inserted. That guy with nothing but a rotten reputation stopped the airing and said on national TV: “’Di po maganda. Nagsasaya kami dito habang nagluluksa ang sambayanang Pilipino. ’Di ko magagampanan ang pagpapatawa habang ipinapakita ang libing ng dating presidente.” (“It’s not good for us to have fun here while the whole country grieves. I cannot make people laugh at the same time that this part of the funeral of our former president is being shown.”). Many haters reacted negatively, which is just a perfect and natural reaction. My own personal reaction is this feeling of outrage against the demon in him. I really hate Willie, and that remark made me hate him even more. I wonder where he was during the EDSA Revolution. I wonder if he has ever been grateful for the democracy that was won for us by Tita Cory. Didn't he even realize that the Freedom of Speech and Expression he is utilizing - and oftentimes abusing - now was born out of Ninoy and Cory's heroism? Hurting people's feelings is his way to popularity. He's making money out of it. Well, I hope he earns enough money to buy back his conscience.
