2010 Election & Charter Change

The election years is fast approaching. We can smell politics nowadays wherever we found ourself in. Most notable are the early tv ads of known to be aspiring candidates. Politics has already pollute the airwaves this early. This is politics in the Philippines, I was practically born with the scenario and has grown up with it. How bad!

I like to boycott these politicians, who played with our election law by showing themselves on Ads this early which in essence should have violated our fair election law, but nobody would be left if we do that. Everybody rides with the flows and goes with the ebb. Anyway as always, I just cast my ballot with a lot of blanks or in the worst of things I'll just stay at home and enjoy the holiday due to the election. Funny!

Another thing I would like to opine about is the thing that congress is pursuing now, and that is to amend the constitution through a congressional assembly. The lower house is squambling with the senate on how should they vote, be it separately or as one body - congress and senate combined. This is somehow hillarious, because even with the brilliant mind, unquestionable effort and sincerity of our constitutionalist, they failed on this matter to clearly rule on the matter. Anyway, despite no clearcut provision on the constitution on the matter, having taken up my PolSci 1 (Phil. Constitution) I would lean on the belief that they should vote separately then take the average. On the grounds that they are intended to be a bicameral body.

What I do not like though are protesters, hope they would be enlighten and stop filling the street with garbage streamers and garbage minds and ideologies (ouch!! that hurts). I know they have their motives, but I mean to topple the government when they cannot offer a better replacement is insane. Can you imagine if this people are the one in power? For sure expect the worst! Hope they would just join the productive people of this country and contribute to our GDP. Even they would just plant at their backyards instead of protesting, I know they could contribute. I am not saying, that we citizen should not be proactive and vigilant, but hello, theres proper time to it, and what I can see is that this people are doing this too often, that make me thinks this must be their livelihood and means of income. Stop all these things, anyway its the people who elected this crocs and that its just fair that they be given some leeway and prove themselves. After all if they are not good, then the people deserve them!!!!!
