Villar Won't Get My Vote

Hopefully by the time October ends, my name will be part of the official list of the voters registry for the upcoming 2010 Elections. My readers know that I've been long ranting about how the Philippine government is down in the dumpster and that I'm beginning to forcefully accept the bitter reality that this country will be forever be infested with corrupt and money-greedy "public servants."

Now that elections is just more or less seven months away, presidential candidates dim-wittedly resort to great lengths for campaign tactics: raffling off free cellphones, doing a marriage proposal on national TV (in an unreputable noon time show, no less), and this:

It's bad enough that Typhoon Ondoy massacred innocent lives, but why take advantage of this tragedy by using it as another campaign tool? Mr. Villar, you are not helping. If you want to be of assistance, do your charitable work in hush-hush. You cannot anticipate positive feedback in you charity-work-slash-campaign tactic. It is NOT going to work. Youths like me nowadays are smarter than you think.

Oh, in case you're wondering, I'm going for Noynoy Aquino.
