Written Contusions

A friend of mine forwarded a quote to me.

Which way would you take?

The left one where there's nothing right? Or the right one where there's nothing left?

Nice play of words. Think about it.

I guess it's really hard to choose. A conundrum, dilemma, and a stalemate. I just thought I would share.

Shocking title, huh?!

I really don't know what to say about that ConAss shit that's buzzing all around the blogosphere. A lot of people have been blogging about that topic. I'd like to say that I have a good idea about the issue, but in reality, I really don't know squat about that topic. From what I've heard about it from my sister, it stands for Constituent Assembly. From what I have read about it in Ayel's site, it has an alien name that sounds like C3P0 or R2D2; if my memory serves me right, it's HR 1109.

Ok, so far, so good, right?

Nevertheless, I don't care what it really stands for because no matter what they plan in congress, senate, or any other governing body, it wouldn't matter. FILIPINO POLITICIANS DO NOT HAVE THE WILL TO CHANGE ANYTHING FOR THE GOOD OF THEIR PEOPLE. I'd have to generalize but nothing ever changes around here. The same trend keeps on popping up. Politicians just want to have money, power, and popularity. Why else would they dabble in a supposedly private issue such as that of Hayden Kho and Katrina Halili. If they wanted to improve on the Philippine condition, the matter of pornography should've been addressed a good long time ago. Likewise, if politicians here wanted to take away corruption, it should have been done even before Manuel L. Quezon died.

Harsh, huh?!

You may call me idealistic; I might be dreaming up a utopia, but the fact still remains. We are still poor. We are still dirty. We are still nutty. Just look at EDSA. It's colored pink for a divinity's sake! We've had People Power Revolutions (approximately 2 or 3, depending on whose side a citizen is on). We still have flood. We still have corruption. Even if we call the president emperor, czar, prime minister, God, or Grand Fuhrer, it will not change a thing. Shuffle a deck of cards, but leave the same cards in it and it's still the same DAMNED FUCKING piece of shitty playing cards.

I thank you! *bow*
