Terrorism and Arroyo-ism

I don't know if Gloria in the Palace can understand the words she say. English kasi.

Yesterday, she was so bold enough to say: Terrorism is murder and no religion anywhere can abide by the faith of the faithless who kill and maim in the name of God.

Consider the following:

1. Gloria in the Palace loves photo-ops in the Church and or going to church. She even has pictures in deep prayer and meditation (or pretending to be?).

2. Gloria in the Palace loves to claim that God put her in the office. (Feeling siguro ang mga Pinoy nasa medieval times pa at "to the bones" pang naniniwala sa Divine Theory of government.)

3. And Gloria in the Palace loves to name-drop the name of God. (Naku! Naaalala ko tuloy ang ala-panalangin na TV ad ni Gloria in the palace last 2004 election. Iyong ginawa ni Boy Abunda na parang panalangin o parang reading ng salmo na ang response sa bawat linya "Yan si Gloria!" Kumusta na kaya si Boy? Di ba siya nagsisisi sa endorsement niya kay Gloria in the Palace? "Yan si Boy Abunda!")

4. But despite her use of the name of God, Gloria in the Palace issued the calibrated pre-emptive response (CPR), Presidential Proclamation 1017, General Order No. 5 (hindi soup number 5 o mambo number 5!) and similar repressive measures. These orders trample on the rights of the people.

5. Based on human rights primer released by CHR and other government agencies of the Philippines, human rights makes man a man. Trampling on said rights mean trampling on man. Naisip kaya ito ni Gloria in the Palace?

6. Because of repressive measures, the rights of man were maimed. And maiming man's rights simply mean maiming man. Again, naisip kaya ito ni Gloria in the Palace?

7. Aside from the orders that directly affect man's political rights, Gloria in the Palace also issued repressive measures and policies affecting man's economic rights. Sa totoo lng, marami ang nghihirap at marmi ang namamatay sa gutom.

Still, Gloria in the Palace has to guts to say the words she uttered yesterday? Naks naman ah! Bopols o makapal lang talga? Hmmnnnnn.......
