The Magdalo Group is now supporting the candidacy of Senator Villar.
In exchange for Magdalo's support, Senator Villar agreed to the following three conditions set by Magdalo Group:
* He will not enter into an alliance with President Arroyo.
* He will pursue the Magdalo advocacy on poverty alleviation, anti-corruption, peace in Mindanao, and reform and modernization of the Armed Forces.
* He will allow other detained Magdalo members to serve in government.
I have no problem with condition No. 2.
I have doubts on condition No. 1. What if Villar already entered into an alliance with President Arroyo prior to this Magdalo-Villar alliance? If this eventually turns out to be true, somebody did not do his homework.
I find condition No. 3 'curious'. How could they serve in the government if they are detained? As a jail warden may be? or jail guard?
Compromise is admittedly a great way to solve differences. But a person who compromises something which he has no control of, or has no power to compromise, is typically, both a fool...
...and a desperate man salivating to get elected president.
Another vote buying...
Garo vote buying na naman so No. 3.
Kapalit nin suporta o boto, piyapangakuan an mga nakadetain na Magdalo nin pwesto sa gobyerno? Ano na ini.
Mii na kita kaan ki Villar!
