ERMITA: “The President would like to tell everybody that there’s really nothing wrong with all these issues and that the administration is willing to reveal all it knows about the contract.”

Wow! Parang 'Hello, Garci' ano? Ilang buwan ang rehearsal bago magpalabas ang Malacanang. Siguro naman ay kabisado na ng mga miyembro ng gabinete ang kanilang mga linya, pag-arte, at mga adlib.

Sino naman kaya ngayon ang aatakihin sa puso at maoospital? hahaha

Sinasabi sa Biblya na mag-ingat sa mga pekeng propeta na magsusulputan kapag malapit na ang katapusan ng panahon na siyang lilinlang at magdadala sa atin sa kapahamakan.

Pero sabi rin ng isang guro ko dati, na hindi dapat paniwalaan ng literal ang mga nakasulat sa Bibliya, mga taong hibang lamang ang gumagawa ng ganito. (Pasintabi sa mga panatiko at deboto)

Sa isang banda, parehong tama ang Bibliya at ang aking dating guro, may mga pekeng propeta at ngayo'y pekeng pangulo. Pakinggan natin; (o basahin)

PGMA: “OUR ATTENTION MUST BE FOCUSED AS OUR ENERGIES MUST BE SPENT ON ACTIVITIES THAT DO GET COMPUTED IN THE GDP. UNFORTUNATELY FOR SOME, MERE EXERCISE OF VOCAL CHORDS IS ALREADY A HARD LABOR. YES, POLITICAL CIRCUSES ARE ENTERTAINING. BUT THESE SHOULD NOT DISSIPATE OUR ENERGIES THE WAY THEY CONSUME THOSE WHO STAGE THEM. LET’S FOCUS ON THINGS THAT MATTER MOST, THE THINGS THAT OUR PEOPLE WANT: JOBS, HEALTH, EDUCATION….THIS IS WHAT GOVERNMENT HAS STAYED FOCUSED ON WHAT FILIPINOS YEARN FOR MOST. WE’RE TIRED OF POLITICAL DRAMA AND SOCIAL INSTABILITY. WE’RE ENTERING AN ERA WHERE THE VAST MAJORITY CAN HAVE A PREDICTABLE FUTURE AND A STEADY JOB IN THE KNOWLEDGE CENTURY…LET’S NOT BE DISTRACTED OR DISTRESSED BY VAUDEVILLE ACTS THAT APPEAL TO OUR WORST FEARS, WHEN WE CAN BE INSPIRED BY WHAT OUR ECONOMY IS SHOWING THAT APPEALS TO OUR BEST HOPES.”

Ito ay kanyang talumpati bilang reaksyon sa mga iskandalong naganap sa Senado tungkol sa NBN contract na iniimbestigahan ng mga Senador. Dito rin binulgar ni JDV3 na hindi lang pala si Abalos ang sangkot, kasama rin ang First Gentleman na Mike Arroyo sa kontrobersyal at maanomalyang kontratang ito.

Magkaganoon man, malinaw na nililinlang tayo ng pekeng pangulo, at pilit na pinaniniwalang dadalhin niya tayo sa kanyang "Enchanted Kingdom" (Abangan)

Pero hindi lang sa pekeng pangulo ka malilito, mabubuang at matatawa kapag nakinig ka. Pati ang kanyang anak, ika-dudugo ng iyong tenga kapag narinig mo siyang sumagot sa mga ilang tanong sa kanya.

(How did you deal with yesterday’s revelations at the senate)
Well ako personally ako nakakainis kasi parang ano, kami na naman yung nakita niyo, eh nananahimik na nga kami na, eh mula sa simula pa lang ng political career ng nanay ko hindi tlaga kami nakikialam sa govt contracts. Ewan ko sa kanya. I mean, ako I don’t use my parents’ influence to get govt contracts. Ewan ko sa kanya. So to me, I mean, don’t..just because you fail in your business practices don’t blame it on innocent people here. So parang, kakainis ka naman noh. But, I mean, what can we do? Ganyan talaga yung… I don’t know. I don’t know if his old drug use affected his thinking but– whatever! I mean, tawa na lang kami diba? I mean kami na naman what else is new?

Naiinis kayo dahil kayo na naman? Hahaha, aba'y sino bang pumipirma sa mga kontrata na pinapasukan ng gobyerno?

(what do you say to allegations that your dad purposely went abroad to evade this)
For me that’s again grasping at straws as thin as his hairline. You know? I mean, my Dad and I, we were talking about several trips that we were gonna do over the next couple of months. I also travel a lot. So do my parents. So we were talking about, oh where are you going, ganyan ganyan. And my dad was saying, o aalis ka na naman—referring to me. So he was even complaining about my travelling. So I really think it’s unfair. Just because they don’t know the whole picture, because we do have our private lives. I mean they shouldn’t impute things they don’t know.

Wala namang masama sa paglilibot sa ibang lugar. Ang masama kapag ang pera ng taumbayan ang ginagamit sa paglilibot, o di kaya'y dinadala niyo sa kung saan mang banko para itago at kamkamin.

(how do you think this will affect the political relationship of your mom with the speaker)
Well to me, well there’s no change in the way my mother runs govt. She’s focused on that. With the speaker and his son, I mean, that‘s their problem That’s really his problem. We don’t wanna meddle there. So sila yung may problema hindi kami.

Hahaha! Tama ka, kasi wala talaga kayong problema, kayo ang problema! hahahaha!!11

(how’s your dad taking these things? Anong sabi niya sa iyo)
He’s ano na lang. Parang nakakainis na nakakatawa. He’s like, hay naku it’s me again. Can’t they see other people? I’m thin na nga. I’m a smaller target pero ako pa rin.

Mawalang-galang na FGMA, sino ang payat?! *ehem* Paanong naging "smaller target" ka eh, kung saan-saan ka nakikita, sa Hong Kong, sa Wack Wack, sa Germany, sa Venice, atbp at kung sinu-sinong tao na makati sa mata ng publiko ang nakikitang kasama mo?

(when is he coming back)
He’ll come back soon. But for me, the only thing important for me is to leave him in peace and let him enjoy naman his holiday.

Babalik yan pagkatapos ng mga hearing sa Senado o kaya ay tuluyan nang malito at mawalan ng interes ang taumbayan sa mga hearing. Dahil sisimulan na ang 'palabas' ng Malacanang.

(gusto siyang i-subpoena ng senate)
Well the senate, they have their own rules and I leave it to them. And we have nothing to hide.

(di d ur mom sleep well last night)
Yeah we’re fine! I mean there’s really no problem there. I think I get more inis because she’s used to it eh. To me it’s really just frustrating that we’re doing so well and they’re looking for things that are not there. So gawa na lang sila ng kwento.

Ako rin may isang kwento, ang pamagat niya ay "Hello, Garci." May maiksing video pa nga ako e.
