Disappointed

 
 
That the Left would be "disappointed" with PNoy's SONA does not surprise anymore. I could have written that story weeks before the President delivered his speech before the joint session of congress.  And it is not because I am psychic either. These jokers are simply predictable. Funny how they would deliver their soundbites to the news crew covering the event, as if they are actually saying something they carefully weighed even for a minute. Forty years from now they will still be protesting President Baby James Aquino-Yap's SONA, complete with effigies and placards demanding "Ibagsak ang US-Baby James regime". I can compose right now their soundbite reactions to Aquino-Yap's SONA -- for a fee of course.


But that said let me admit, I too am disappointed. I am disappointed that Gloria would not be there to bear the full brunt of the SHAME she so richly deserves. But maybe I am being naive. From what I gather from the reactions from her sons and those who supported her blighted presidency, "shame" is no longer in their vocabulary. 


PNoy, perhaps, was being naive himself when he appealed to the sense of "hiya" from Gloria's midnight appointees to do the right thing. He might as well have appealed to Osama Bin Laden's sense of humanity and just surrender. It will not happen. PNoy's administration better prepare themselves for a long drawn out legal battle before we can rid our government of these leeches.


That Imelda gets to prance in all her Imeldific glory was another disappointment. I am no fashion expert but I believe an orange jumpsuit would suit her better. Sabi nga ni PNoy, pwede na ulit mangarap, di ba?


Finally, I am disappointed too for some other more personal reason. Not once was the word "mungo" or "mafia" mentioned in PNoy's SONA. He's got his sights on the Rice Mafia, but sadly we can expect no aid from the PNoy presidency in our battle against the Mungo Mafia. Now that's the real shame.
