Yeah. You’re probably right. After which he will wander the lahar lands for 40 years as an exile.

If PGMA does run, though, then Among Ed has to stay in Pampanga to act as a thorn in her side.

And the news came as a surprise to no one.

I will now make a prediction: if the shift to parliamentary system goes through, Ed Panlilio will run against Gloria for the House seat. And he will lose.

@pantless: hurhurhur.

@tina: Luis Teodoro talks a bit about that here: http://www.luisteodoro.com/dictatorship-in-democratic-garb/

cliffs:
1. It will allow her to stay in power, no matter how diminished. I guess it’s addictive, power.
2. It could qualify her to run for Prime Minister and thus be the head of government again.
3. She could use her position to get much richer.
He says it better,though.

Further proof that GMA is actually the long lost cousin of Frodo: Douche Baggins!

Strictly speaking, it won’t be a term extension. Also,strictly speaking, there’s nothing illegal about it. But it’s a douchebag move.

Well that puts the “term extensions are just speculations” argument down the drain.
