With all due respect to the anti-Aquinos, hitting PNoy the way he’s now being hit is beginning to make Glora Macapagal Arroyo look like an angel.

Odd, that for GMA, there is demand for proof of larceny, but for PNoy, chismis suffices.
If by indiscriminately destroying Benigno Aguino III it appears that Gloria Arroyo doesn’t deserve vilification, then it’s suddenly arguable she’s not all what we anti-Arroyo activists said she was from the time she occupied the highest office of the land in 2001, to 2010.
