Here comes the election time. We chose the finest, the
geniuses (Marcos/GMA), the orators, and the movie stars! We often wonder where
we have gone wrong. We are sure of our votes…we elected the right people. Even
the people we didn’t vote for are as good as the ones we voted for. Our country has
not changed for the better. Corruption is still rampant, and the people are still as poor as rats. we try to hide them from view whenever foreign dignitaries
come calling. We try to cover our shame.
Here comes election time. We chose to vote for the unrefined
talker who spouts vindictive like I will kill you and feed you to the sharks in
Manila Bay. He mocks the priesthood and calls their god stupid. He jokes about
women, which invites the ire of women and human rights groups. Bringing back decency
to the presidency became the rallying cry of his political opponents.
Finally, we did the unthinkable – WE VOTED FOR MR RIGHT!
