The gimmick being built up by the yellow crowd for the inauguration of President-elect Noynoy Aquino in making spectators take a collective oath with the new President — a first, as it is being bruited about by the same yellow horde — will likely be yet another attempt at exclusivity and will likely backfire. The 10,000 (100,000 even, as claimed by the yellow media) estimated people who will troop to the Quirino Grandstand will likely be the same throng of civil socialites who mill around Aquino, Liberal Party (LP) members, movie stars and starlets and a sprinkling of supporters who are pinning their huge hopes on the Noynoy presidency. Taking an oath presupposes a commitment which the organizers of the Aquino inauguration want the mass oath-taking to convey. It would be a commitment for support of Noynoy for the coming years he will be in Malacañang. Source: The Daily Tribune URL: http://www.tribuneonline.org/commentary/20100621com1.html |
