Aquino mum amid Kidapawan outrage.
It’s difficult for an intellectual slowpoke to respond promptly to a crises. Apparently, Mr. Aquino suffers from mental blackout aggravated by emotional paralysis everytime crisis erupts.

Poe confirms meet with INC minister.
Well, well, well, still a political greenhorn, Poe is already showing shade of a political trapo by engaging in patronage politics. So what else is new? The girl is a fast learner. She is not a political ignoramus, after all.
If Poe captures Malacanang, expect special favors to go INC’s way.

80% of private armies keep ideouts in Mindanao.
PNP top honcho Ricardo Marrquez disclosed that these armed groups are in two Mindanao regions – ARMM and Central Mindanao. These are all under intense surveillance, he added.
So, General, Sir you know these groups exist and operate. Aren’t you supposed to get rid of them, disarm them, dismantle them, erase them from the face of the earth? You just keep them in your watch list and you just keep watching them move around unmolested. Nice job, General.

Bishop urges voters to use 10 commandments.
Archbiishop Socrates Villagas, head of the CBCP, has issued a six-page Pastoral letter admonishing Catholic voters to make the Ten Commandments the basis of choosing the right candidates in the national and local elections.
For me, that Pastoral letter is not necessary and has minimal impact on the Catholic faithful. It is an “exercise in futility.”
I guess if politicians put to heart the Fifth Commandment – Thou shalt not steal – this country will be in good hands.
That Pastoral letter could be reduced to three words, and to be addressed to all candidates – “ Thou shall not steal”.
