Late Reaction on these Political Machinations

So is GMA really sick? Initially, no one really believed it. Afterwards, people were like, ok, maybe, she’s a little bit sick. But the way these lawyers, Horn and Topacio, and all her people fought tooth and nail just to tell the public she should be allowed to leave the country for a checkup in Singapore or Spain, it’s as if her life depended on it.


Complications, diarrhea, depression and whatever else, just kept piling up. She needed to stay in the hospital they said.

Suddenly, when the doctors were being called to testify as to what the status of her health really is… Suddenly, she’s well. Could it be that no doctor would be willing to falsely testify for her at the risk of losing his/her medical license? (It is like when Atty. Topacio said that he advised the so called pro-GMA rallyist, to stay calm and not to rally. Clever - as there probably really are no GMA rallyist)

Speaking of her lawyers:


Hats off to Horn, she’s using her womanhood to her advantage. She cries. She emotes. She comes up with all these logical responses to everything that’s thrown at GMA and at her. If only GMA still had an ounce of credibility with the people, if only people gave a damn if she was sick or not… then Horn’s highly impressive skills would have made it work.

But that’s the thing, Horn’s really good at what she’s doing and yet she fails. This is the state of how much the people do not sympathize with GMA’s plight.

And, for Topacio – he is a clown. The first egg remark was a novelty, the succeeding ones were just trying. So, he continues to make random accusations and statements on air.

But as a friend of mine said the other day: “ang mga magnanakaw at manloloko, ang modus nila ay ang manindak muna”. She says that they will raise their voice or say some statement to shock you, then you’d forget about about your real thoughts for a while. This entire circus is a little bit, running along the same lines as, that strategy: Gaslighting.
