There is one TRAGIC POLITICAL REALITY which
is fast emerging:
THERE IS NO REAL OPPOSITION!
Reports of the alleged extortion attempt by presidential
sister Ballsy Aquino and several others on a Czechoslovakian firm interested in
supplying MRT trains have been circulating for several days now.
But NOBODY, and I mean NOBODY, from the
Opposition has called for a ‘no-nonsense’ probe by either the House of
Representatives or the Senate.
Nobody has asked Ballsy’s alleged cohorts for
an explanation, formally or informally. No senator or congressman has initiated
any move to seek more details from the Czech company or the Czech embassy.
Not one senator or congressman has requested
the Department of Foreign Affairs or any other concerned government agency to look
into thematter.
Left-leaning parry-list Rep. Nedy Colmenares had
announced he will file a resolution calling for a House investigation. But nothing
has been heard of it again, nor has any congressman publicly expressed support
to him.
Anybody correct me if I’m wrong on anything. If I’m not, I would welcome proof from anybody
that we not yet in a pseudo-dictatorship.
I’m NOT SAYING, and I WILL NEVER SAY, that
Ballsy and his group is guilty of anything.
But take note, people:
The issue is POSSIBLE CORRUPTION by a sister
of PNoy, the highest official of the land who is supposed to be the top example
of morality and propriety.
PNoy has OUTRIGHTLY IGNORED the issue, in effect
immediately clearing Ballsy of any wrongdoing without the benefit of an
inquiry.
The Opposition is supposed to be the WATCHDOG
or GUARDIAN against immoral acts by \the Administration, including members of
their families, political allies and known close friends.
If the GUARDIAN SUDDENLY TURNS BLIND to possible
immorality or fraud from the Administration or the ruling majority, then WE SHOULD
NOT EXPECT TRUTH AND TRANSPARENCY in the spirit that these should be.
To dream of GOOD GOVERNANCE would be a NIGHTMARE.
PNoy and the members of his family, and
political allies, ARE NOT GODS OR SAINTS who can never commit any sin.
As to why others look at them as such, your
guess is as good as mine. 30
