My, Imee Vice Again
In the news today, we are told that Congresswoman Imee Marcos (should we still place Manotoc at the end?) warned Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo not to trust former President Fidel V. Ramos.
I had a wonderfully, good laugh!
Get this: The eldest in a family that plundered the Philippines for some 20 years is warning a President, who has cheated the elections and lied to the Filipinos, about a former President who was once the enforcer of Ferdinand Marcos and his repressive Martial Law.
That's Philippine politics! It can make you laugh. This is why former Sen. Tito Sotto can glide with ease from comedy into politics and then back again into comedy (he's back in "Eat Bulaga").
Yet, that's the irony. Since Philippine politics is run by a bunch of clowns, it is cause for the Filipinos to be very, very sad.
