DON’T FORGET PDAF, AND THE DAP!


Even if Janet Napoles’ has already been sentenced to life in jail for illegally detaining Benhur Luy  DO NOT, and I mean NEVER, FORGET that her other supposed partners in the ‘pork barrel’ or Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) scandal who are allied with the Aquino Administration REMAIN UNTOUCHED. 

Early on in  expose of the now  infamous Napoles list, Aquino Administration allies n both the House of Representatives and the Senate were mentioned as having been alleged beneficiaries of the billions Napoles supposedly stole from PDAF funds. But to date, and anybody correct me if I’m wrong, NOT ONE ADMININSTRATION ALLY has been charged or ordered to explain/account for his ort her PDAF allocations in detail. NOT ONE. But Opposition bigshots like Senators Juan Ponce Enrile, Bong Revilla and Jinggoy Estrada continue to rot in jail for their supposed involvement in the PDAF scam for a year or so now.

I AM NOT SAYING, AND I WILL NEVER SAY, that three senators are innocent. However, not a SINGLE PIECE OFINDISPUITABLE PROOF has been presented against any of the three solons. And the Aquino Government’s ‘amnesia’ or ‘blindness when it comes to their allies supposed complicity in the PDAF scam WORSENS BY THE DAY, as the 2016  ELECTIONS APPROACHES.

Same thing with the DAP. Until a few months ago, estimates of as much as more than P100 billion remain unaccounted for. And to this day, the Department of Budget and Management could not claim that all the monies have been liquidated. But like in the PDAF scam, NOT ONE ADMINISTRATION ALLY has been charged or asked to explain how did he or she send the funds and where are the rest, if any. Neither has there been solid justification on the use of DAP funds for highly questionable purposes like the purchase of cars for Commission on Audit commissioners and ,if I remember correctly, of millions of pesos worth gadgets for  the Department f Social Welfare and Development.

The conviction of Napoles merits congratulations to the government prosecutors. But DON’T LETIT BLIND ANYONE to the reality that Aquino Administration allies linked to the BIGGER AND MORE DEVILISH  PDAF and DAP  anomalies remain UNTOUCHED up to now.30
