The State of the Nation : WHY SO SERIOUS?

Thanks to Pepe Diokno's "Pepe Don't Preach"
Philippine Star column for the gorgeous photo!

I managed to watch the latter half of President Arroyo's
annual address to her congressional dog pound,
the SONAvabitch, and here are my thoughts:

I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of irrelevant factoids
and mountains of incomprehensible lines to defend her VAT,
(no mention whatsoever of how the VAT collections would be distributed)

cringed at the shameless effort to parade "everyday people"
who supposedly are the beneficiaries of this administration,
(including a tribal chief freezing at the Batasan wearing only a G-string)

discombobulated by the sycophantic congressmen's applause
of every inane statement spouted by the "I Am Sorry" lady,
(a record-setting hundred plus clapping interruptions)

and

I just about hollered with glee when GMA announced that
text messages between rival telcos would be lowered
from P1.00 to P0.50!!!
(the only part of the SONA that Pinoys actually understood & appreciated)



At the end of her speech, I realized a couple of things:

1. Our President really is a
JOKER,

and

2. I'm really allergic to her face and voice;
my eyes started to itch and swell, and
this is how I looked like after she finished:

yup, just call me
TWO-FACE!!!
