Philippine Election and The Miss Universe Pageant

Looking through my browsers news feed I see two predominant topics... The Philippine elections and The Miss Universe Pageant.

Predominant in politics is Grace Poe's disqualification and her resolve to still run - though my thoughts go.. how could you still run if you are already disqualified?????  Well, instead of saying, we are honoring the decision of the Comelec but will still exercise all legal means to try to reverse the decision, they go the dirty way and say that the Comelec is "bullying" her or that it is a move by an opponent and keeps on pointing to everyone but herself for this fiasco....  You know very well that Philippine Politics is dirty... why go and muddle in the mud? Hmmm... something to think about perhaps... No BS about wanting to help, because I know a lot of people that don't need the power of a position to help people out.. Even if you are not in a government position you can still help... and please no BS still about being able to help more if you're in position. It's really becoming old... this disqualification bouts and all the hoopla surrounding it. It is a shame that the Philippine political arena is  filled with substandard issues... I continue to maintain my stand that I haven't seen one presidential aspirant worthy of my vote. All I see on all sides is politicking, mud slinging and not one person is really keen on helping the Filipino people move up from the slump they are in. Next is the recent SWS survey that counts the top contenders for the presidency. well, same old same old.. nothing new, nothing to report really.

Now, the Miss Universe Pageant, that is something that brightens the day of most Filipinos today as our Ms. Philippines Universe Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach won the prestigious pageant albeit without some controversy as the host made a mistake in announcing the winner. Well regardless of that controversy, fact remains Philippines won and indeed a great Christmas gift for the Filipino people from our newly crowned Miss Universe.

Perhaps when I'm more able, I'll give a more indepth post regarding the Miss U pageant and perhaps I'd already have a candidate in mind for the presidency but for now, let's just keep it as is.
