Lacson vs. Estrada
In Part 1 of his three-part privilege speech titled “Ang Dalawang Mukha ng Sining,” opposition senator Panfilo Lacson exposed Joseph Estrada’s extensive links to illegal gambling, smuggling, extortion, and other abuses during his term as president including the convicted plunderer’s possible involvement in the abduction and murder of PR practitioner Bubby Dacer and his driver Emmanuel Corbito. Sought for reaction, Estrada said, “Bakit ako matatakot sa 30 percent pa lamang na exposé? Mas nakakatakot ang kay Noynoy, 50 percent!”
Sen. Panfilo Lacson delivered an explosive speech linking former president Joseph Estrada to illegal gambling operations, big time smuggling, extortion, and other abuses during his presidency including his possible involvement in the gruesome murder of PR man Bubby Dacer. Observers believe this could have been the year’s most shocking political story… had not Sen. Mar Roxas proposed to Korina live on Wowowee.
Filipino-Chinese tycoon Alfonso Yuchengco confirmed Senator Lacson’s exposé that he was coerced to selling his PLDT shares to Manny Pangilinan in 1998. Asked to comment on Yuchengco’s revelation, Pangilinan said, “Chika lang ‘yun! Promise!”
After Senator Lacson’s privilege speech, Sen. Jinggoy Estrada took the floor to denounce what he called “a clear vilification drive against my father” and warned, “If this gentleman does not stop spreading lies about my father, I will tell the truth about the person of Senator Lacson.” Inspired by Jinggoy’s reaction, Sen. Manuel Villar Jr. rose from his seat, looked at a surprised Sen. Jamby Madrigal and threatened, “If this lady does not stop spreading lies about C5 road, I will tell the truth about the person of Senator Madrigal.”
In Part 1 of his three-part exposé on former president Joseph Estrada titled “Ang Dalawang Mukha ng Sining,” Sen. Panfilo Lacson detailed his former boss’ involvement in illegal gambling, smuggling, extortion, and other abuses during his short-lived presidency. After listening to Lacson’s speech, every single person in the Estrada household was reportedly stunned. In fact, former senator Loi Ejercito was so shocked… for the first time in several years, her face moved!
Top 5 Rejected Working Titles for Senator Panfilo Lacson’s Upcoming Privilege Speeches Against the Estrada Family
No. 5: “Ang Dalawa’t Kalahating Baba ni Jinggoy”
No. 4: “Ang Walong Kabit ni Erap”
No. 3: “Ang Nawawalang Leeg ni JV”
No. 2: “Ang Dalawang Katauhan ni Jude”
And the No. 1 rejected working title for Senator Panfilo Lacson’s upcoming privilege speech against the Estrada family…
“Through the Years: Ang Apat na Ilong ni Senator Loi Ejercito”
SWS Survey
Reports say Sen. Noynoy Aquino topped the latest Social Weather Stations survey conducted in major regions of Luzon earlier this month. Noynoy got 50 percent; the other 50 went to the Pink Sisters.
SWS Survey II
The latest SWS survey showed that the Noynoy Aquino-Mar Roxas tandem was the most preferred by voters in Luzon. The least preferred was the Mar Roxas-Korina Sanchez tandem.
GMA’s US Trip
President Arroyo has canceled her scheduled trip to New York. The president made the decision after getting information that not a single solon was willing to foot the bill at Le Cirque this time.
Noli’s Decision
The Philippine Daily Inquirer reported that Vice President Noli De Castro has rejected the offer of Lakas-CMD-Kampi to join the party. Sought for comment, De Castro explained, “Bakit ka kakandidato pa, kung sa offer pa lang ni Villar ay panalo na!”

Elsewhere: RG Cruz vs. Korina Sanchez
I received a letter three days ago but opted to verify its authenticity first before writing about it lest I be accused again of spreading black propaganda against a certain Korina Sanchez.
Just so you know, there’s an ongoing “war” between a certain Korina Sanchez and RG Cruz, a journalist from ABS-CBN.
Reports say a certain Korina Sanchez, through an open letter, has asked her superiors at ABS-CBN to probe RG for his not so flattering Facebook comments about the ex-future First Lady. [Pati ba naman Facebook status, patulan?!]
A portion of the ex-future First Lady’s letter to management menacingly reads:
“So to you, RG Cruz, I say, I hope that — as your Facebook entry narrated — as you were “eating chocolate” and indulging your gastronomical cravings while events at Club Filipino on the 2nd of September 2009 were unfolding and all you could think of and delight in, as written in your Facebook, are your cruel attacks, pettiness, inanities and insensitivities to the sacrifice of others and, horror of horrors, make these public — you will, henceforth, attempt to save yourself from the very real prospect of disappearing, leaving this world without a trace, no better and even worse than when you found it.”
Here’s the letter in full as posted in the blog of lawyer Marichu Lambino.
Da Who?
Very reliable sources say a lawmaker who has “links” to showbiz is hooked on prohibited drugs. Because of the addiction, he is frequently absent in sessions. A TV show is currently working on the story but I seriously doubt if the lawmaker would grant an interview… unless he’s prepared to lose in the 2010 polls. Hint: Check out your calendar.
Survey Says…
Who should be the standard bearer of the administration party?
Noli De Castro: 8%
Bayani Fernando: 22%
Ronaldo Puno: 1%
Gilbert Teodoro: 14%
I don’t care: 55%
We have a new survey. Please vote now.

Ang tanong…bakit ngayon lang? Ilang taon na ba mula nang maalis si Erap bilang pangulo? This is like Jose De Venecia who spilled the beans after niyang malaglag as Speaker of the House and it took him 6 to 7 years before he decided na mali pala ang ginagawa ni GMA. Not that I’m defending Erap, I’m not feeling the sincerity of this speech and how it would benefit the public. There has been a lot of expose about the former President after he was booted out of Malacanang and several books were even published about the shady schemes of Erap. So, why only now? If Lacson really wanted to be of service to us, he should have cried wolf a loooong time ago.

Pag ininterview e puri pa ng puri sa tao kesyo malinis, magaling etc.
Pag may ibang agenda na o do nakuha ang gusto mula sa tao o mga tao e expose na ng expose…
Kung ang batang De Venecia ba e siya ang nakakuha ng ZTE deal, nagsalita kaya siya?
Si JDV kaya nagsalita rin kung anak niya nga nakakuha nung project?

When did it become against the law NOT to like someone? Doesn’t RG Cruz — no matter if he’s a farkin dickwad — have the right to say that Korina would be a lousy wife and first lady? As far as I can tell, RG Cruz isn’t a medium or a time-traveler — and as both titles have yet to be given to Ms. Sanchez, then Cruz’s FB entries aren’t exactly the TRUTH — they’re all just opinions. And guess what? Everyone can have one.
I, for one, think that Ms. Sanchez is an entitled biatch, who, during a raging tantrum, threw a huge Betacam tape at one of her lackeys. Now, as I’m stating that little tidbit as the truth, then that statement can be considered libelous. That’s why I’m using a pseudo. 😉
