Cat-and-Mouse Game of Politics (updated)

Latest News:


Philippine Politics is like a cat-and-mouse game. They said that the "Cory Magic" was buried to the ground when President Cory Aquino died. They said, the Yellow Magic no longer exists but in contrary, the game is not yet over.

The cat is unable to secure a decisive victory over the mouse, who despite not being able to defeat the cat, is able to avoid capture.


Today, the Duterte administration is the cat and Vice President Leni Robredo's group is the mouse. Because of the present trust rating enjoyed by President Duterte, no way Vice President Leni's group can defeat the President.


But the mouse can outsmart the arrogant cat. It is the bad habit of the cat that after the capture of his prey, he release it knowing that the prey is weak enough and cannot do any harm to him.


If the President and his men are not careful enough, one day, they will wake up in the shoes of the mouse being chase by the cat. A change of fate can happen at any given time. 


Take for instance the statement of PNP Chief Bato Dela Rosa calling the critics of War against Drug ingrates. It is ungentlemanly behavior coming from the top ranking police officer whose main job is to serve and protect the Filipino people.


Here comes the Solicitor General  Jose Calida, who vowed that the government would not allow any individual or groups to overthrow the administration of President Duterte. Before they succeed, they will be crippled already even before they could carry out their plans. 



What is happening in our country today?  it is very unfortunate for us to have  these kind of leaders. Pronouncements or statements like these will be a minus point for the administration and a change of heart of their supporters.


As early as this, the administration is campaigning for 12-0 in the senate slates come 2019 local and national election. I believe, it will not likely to happen.

COMPLETE SET OF FEET

Our feet works harder than what we think of. It brings us to lovely places we never been to. The feet carry our body weight all day out all day in. Though tired but never complained.   I was reminded of the song "Foot Prints On The Sands." Where most of the time the songwriter always noticed that there are two sets of footprints on the sand. Suddenly, the lowest point of his time came, at his amazement, there were only one set of footprints on the sands. He complained, because he thought God leave him. A voice from heaven was heard, "My son I never leave you. Yes, there was only one set of footprints on the sand the reason for that is that I carry you." This true to life story made me think that the complete set of feet is not one but two and we must always think this way.

SAVE YOUR SPEECHES FOR THE BEST

THE POLITICAL ARENA IS VERY COLORFUL. WHETHER YOU ARE PARTY MATES OR YOU BELONG TO THE OPPOSING PARTIES, AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU WILL DO YOUR BEST TO OUT-DO AND OUT-WIT ONE ANOTHER FOR ONLY ONE REASON, TO ENSURE VICTORY AND REMAIN ON TOP. LOOK AT THEIR SLOGANS OR WHAT THEY ARE CLAIMING DURING POLITICAL RALLIES AND CAUCUSES. SOME CLAIM THAT THEIR ONLY VICE IS SERVICE (ANG TANGING BISYO NILA AY SERBISYO). SOME SAYS, "BAYAN ANG NO.1, KAMPEON NG PALUPA, TAGAPAGTANGGOL NG KABABAIHAN, KAMPEON NG EDUKASYON, GUSTO KO HAPPY KA, TAPANG AT MALASAKIT, LAYLAYAN NG LIPUNAN, ITULOY ANG DAANG MATUWID AND A LOT MORE. THEIR SPEECHES ARE WELL ORGANIZED AND CRAFTED. THEY WERE EVEN SUPERB IN THE DELIVERY OF THEIR MASTER PIECE. TO BE HONEST AND FAIR, THERE ARE CERTAIN TRUTH TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND CLAIMING BUT MOST OF IT LACED WITH FLOWERY AND SOMETIMES EVEN POISONOUS. SELLING YOURSELF TO THE PEOPLE IS NOT AN EASY JOB. THE PEOPLE WILL KNOW HOW SINCERE YOU ARE AS PUBLIC SE...
