forgettable

Gloria Arroyo's being bombarded by lots of rotten tomatoes. i can imagine her on stage tied on a chair wearing what she wore during her infamous meeting with US President Obama, while audience are in rage, booing, and media people are enjoying good shots of the tumultuous recreation of La Tomatina.

Arroyo is on fire these previous days, burning hot at the stake set by her critics and Filipinos who are fed up by her mere presence in news reports and ads. three alleged lavish dinners during her US visit are currently the hottest talks in town. Fishy? for most people, especially Filipinos, those dinners are brow-raising and brazen acts of insult to their empty starving stomachs. spending thousands of money in celebrating, while at home, many are going gaga over finding food to eat need not doubt not only a waste of people's money, but most importantly, time that could have been spent on matters of the country.

what's more embarrassing is that news came from US press. local media began to question the government and affirm the truth. as of now, the government is still mum about the issue, and other issues are exposed (i.e., costly travels, Arroyo's sudden richness).

obviously, i'm one of those who are tired of news about Arroyo's scandalous activities. i can hardly wait for her to get out and be gone. if those freakin' dinner issues aren't true, why can't they just say the true cost of all they lavished abroad? even the delegates included in that wasteful trip contributed to the fishiness of it all. haay.. who wouldn't get tired of it. it'll always end the same anyway, all of it will be buried in the sands of oblivion.

the best i could do is to wait for election and vote wisely. she won't be remembered anyway, unlike Cory Aquino.
