Suportahan natin ang presidente.....sa kanyang term lang nagkaroon ng mga pagbabago. Yun nga lang maraming kontra bulate. Nag-iisa lang ang kalbo pero maraming kumakalaban sana wag na tayong dumagdag pa. Hindi uusad ang Pilipnas kung lahat na lang babatikusin. Let's pray for him to suceed. Meron namang nangyayari pero sa democracy lahat dumadaan sa proseso kaya lalong bumabagal. Yung check and balance ng government ang nagpapabagal pero epktibo naman ang konsepto kung magtutulungan tayo.
Dear Noytards and Yellow Army cadets,
Everytime I post something critical about BS Aquino, you yellow army would rush to his defense and give the following challenge:
1. It is not easy to be the President so stop criticizing Noynoy.
2. He is just one man and cannot do everything but he means well.
3. At least he is against corruption.
4. It is all GMA, Erap, FVR and Marcos' fault so don't blame him.
5. Puro kayo reklamo. What have you done for your country.
6. Eh di kayo na ang maging presidente.
7. (New) At sino ipapalit ninyo si Binay?
These are the top six ( now seven) defenses/excuses and for the record I would like to address them. So here it goes......
1. A President asked to be placed in that position of power. He begged for our votes with promises and sweet talk. Once in position, a president receives in his hands the immense power of government. Yes it is a hard job, but he did ask for it and because he promised a better life for us citizens and he uses our money and resources, then we as his citizens, individually and as a group have the right and privilege to criticize his every action. It comes with the job description.
2. He, as the president is not one man!!!! He has at his disposal the multi thousand man strong force of the government, uniformed and civil service both. He can move mountains if he wishes so and with the right political will. He only needs to choose the right people to fulfill his every order, but his choices have been questionable so far. Meaning well is all and good, for an ordinary person. For the president of the republic, meaning well must be backed up by intelligent planning and proper action. He must be on top of the situation ready to address any issue big or small because his every move and gesture will always be taken as national policy and direction. Everyone takes their cue from the president, so if things get screwed it came from him directly or otherwise.
3. Being against corruption does not stop at sloganeering. Giving the excuse that it is deeply rooted in society is not acceptable. Singapore hanged their corrupt politicians and leaders without bias toward party affiliation. Thailand and Malaysia still have former politicians in jail for corruption. They are three of the ASEAN powers today but used to lag well behind us. Marcos had a drug dealer shot in Luneta, and until 1987, drugs was never a national problem.
But in this administration we have a budget secretary who was once the hit man of GMA, a cabinet secretary who owns the jueteng operation in a southern Luzon province, a set of dubious customs executives related to Malacanang, an LTO still ridden with anomalies and a budget used for unknown reasons like DAP and PDAF which is still in our 2014 GAA despite a public outcry against it.
4. It is your house now for crying out loud. If you have not been able to clean it after 3.5 years then something must be wrong with your Tuwid na Daan policy. Because if it was Tuwid na Daan, then it must be a very narrow road and anyone who does not follow it can be easily spotted and left at the wayside. But it is not. You still blame everyone, from the former presidents to lackeys in your government you retain anyway, to imaginary forces plotting against you. No one is plotting against you chief. You actually had 78% of the Filipino people behind you when you started your term. I think that just got slashed to more than half by now, but there is no conspiracy to bring you down because you are effectively doing it to yourself. You and your minions.
5. What have we done for our country? We wake up every morning and go to work and be productive. We pay our taxes dutifully and observe the law. We raise our children to be future productive, law abiding members of society who help in raising the GDP, national spending and economic activities. We, all of us, do these simple things that when added up results in millions of pesos the government can use to develop our nation and alleviate hardships and poverty.and all we ask is that this government look after our welfare.
This same government that used up the Malampaya fund for their own ends, allowed a 4.15 peso power hike, ignored the needs of thousand of Yolanda victims, refused to create policy to regulate public transport that not only kills but cripples our economy through horrendous traffic jams.
And these are the few of the bigger sins like theft of tax money and cheating.
6. We did not apply for the job, but your president did! As I said earlier, through his campaign during elections, he wooed, begged, asked us to vote him into power. Only his equally power hungry party mates fooled him into thinking he is fit for the job and so pushed him on. Using the emotional leverage of his mothers death, they capitalized on the Filipino's reverence for the late great Cory Aquino to catapult him into power.
He wanted the job, we don't, so don't go around using that argument because we are putting the responsibility where it belongs, to the person who volunteered for the job.
Believe me, a more mature person would rather face up to the challenge than whine and complain about the job.
(New addition)
7. The issue is the mismanagement of Noynoy Aquino and not his eventual replacement. We are pointing out the deficiency of this current president and how he addresses these deficiencies and criticism. We are demanding responsibility and proper action. Not another set of excuses.
(Post publish note - I am not endorsing Binay, I cite the excuse because that is what I am discussing here. So to the a dark forces, please refrain from celebrating on this thread. -ivp)
All these excuses are just that, excuses. A statesman will never look, talk and act vindictive because he will try to unite his people into one force.
By consistently harping on known and unknown enemies every time he opens his big mouth, BS Aquino only continues to polarize the nation between those who support him against those who question him.
And by doing this there will be no progress because the animosity between the two factions is too strong for any cooperation to happen. Just look at his own Liberal Party divided into the Samar and Balay group. The jockeying for position is so immense.
But I digress.
These are my answer to every Noytard and Yellow Army brat out there who spew the same argument over and over just like their mighty leader.
Listen to yourselves because the truth be told, these are propaganda lines used as a marketing tool to keep the real issue behind an iron curtain of deception.
Yours truly,
Your brother citizen worried for the future of our children.
