This photo was on the splash page of PDI last February 26, Pacific Standard Time.
Don’t you just love this photo?
My first reaction on seeing this was WTF? The gall!
If we had late night talk shows like Jay Leno, David Letterman and Conan O’Brien, the jokes would have been flying out the window in succession, night after night.
Oh, silly me, I keep on forgetting. We can’t make jokes, we might get arrested. It is, still after all, a State of Emergency and even jokes might be enough to incite rebellion.
What was Gloria thinking? Possible thoughts from the imagination of this writer:
Lord, parang napasubo ata ako. Tulungan niyo po akong malampasan to and I promise to be good. (Roughly translated, Lord, I find myself in too deep. Help me get past this and I promise to be good.)
Lord, tulungan niyo po ako gaya ng panahon na tinulungan niyo ako kay FPJ. (In other words, Lord, take care of those who hate me the natural way so I won’t have to do drastic action.)
Lord, why don’t they like me? Mabait naman akong tao ah. I am doing this for the good of the people that’s why I deserve to be in power for a long time. Let them like me Lord. Please.
