DON'T BE DECEIVED BY PADACA!

I hope that nobody will be readily DECEIVED by newly-appointed Comelec Comissioner Grace Padaca’s vows of remaining independent and of inhibiting herself in case her brother gets into a case in his bid to be Isabela governor.

Judge her only if she’ll be put to an actual test.

If she’s as independent-minded as she professes to be, Padaca SHOULD NOT HAVE ACCEPTED PNOY’S MONEY for the bail for the graft charges he is facing.

I’m not saying that she should not accept bail money from anyone.

My point is PNoy is responsible for her temporary freedom, and PNoy has hundreds, if not thousands, of candidates running under his Liberal Party (LP) in next year’s elections.  

So let’s face it, boys and girls, it would be VERY DIFFICULT for anyone NOT TO HELP the person who had kept him or her out of jail, if necessary.

Believe me, people, I sincerely hope that Padaca will live up to her word.

Just DON’T TAKE her word for it, hook, line and sinker. Even if she has received numerous awards for good deeds, IT DOESN’T FOLLOW that her words are Gospel truth.

Keep a close eye on her moves, her decisions and everything she’ll do as Comelec commissioner.

Especially if the subject (s) of an electoral dispute will be LP senatorial bets, known personal candidates of PNoy fore whatever position or his brother.

Wait for what Padaca will do, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, before you judge her integrity. Don’t make endorsements by PNoy or other personalities of her character as your sole basis.

We have been deceived long enough. Further deception will plunge us, and our country, deeper  and faster into the quicksand (kumunoy) of hardships we’re now deeply into. 30
