Gudani and Balutan face court martial
for testifying on election fraud

AFP now under CPR…commander-in-chief’s preventive restraint.

PMAers, our government scholars, what say you?

Umpisa pa lang ng Senate hearing. Sana may mga sumunod pa sa ginawa nina Gudani at Balutan.

To hell with EO 464!…

Ano kaya ang feeling ng LEGISLATIVE department re this EO?… di kaya nila naiinsulto sa issuance na to?

lagot na naman ang kakalaban kay GMA. hay naku itong talaga si GUYA(GMA).

I admire Gudani and Balutan for making a stand and testifying against a fake president. Gudani for one is a Christian and I believe that the Lord is using him to expose someone who can be more treacherous than the devil himself. Grabe!!! Sobra na ang kademonyohan ng isang maitim na dwende. Talagang your days are now numbered GMA. Wag kang masyadong pasisiguro sa pagtulog mo at baka isang umaga magising kang binabalatan na ng mga tao.

ano ba ang mahalaga kila Senga yung katotohanan o yung sinasabi nilang chain of command na ang sinusunod nila ay pekeng pangulo na si gloria. magsamasama kayo lahat sa impierno…kay gen gudani & balutan mabuhay kayo

Let’s say you are running your own company, and you have 2 employees bad-mouthing you, do you glorify their actions?

It’s only proper that these 2 employees do the bad-mouthing after they resign. If you don’t like your military lives and envy the private citizens for being able to join the fiestas, then quit. Shame on Gudani and Balutan.

hhahahaha, tama yan Brig. Gen. Gudani and Lt. Col. Balutan wag na wag kayong mag reresign, kung ang napapanggap ngang commander in chief ninyo ayaw mag resign, pekeng presidente na nga puno pa ng kontrobersya. eh bakit mag rereseign mga under sa kanya. follow the leader ika nga.

God bless the both of you. May more Filipinos be like the two of you, General Gudani and Colonel Balutan.

LCsiao, show the proof of your allegations and sure I’ll bow down to your whims. From the garci tapes isn’t it obvious that Gudani was indeed partisan. Think my friend.

Btw, you don’t have to bow to my whims. We all know who you bow to, don’t we?

ben is great, HAHAHAHA! listen to the tapes…2x, 3x…10x…you sound like you’re one of the palace boys…HAHAHAHA…. “mga dominante…”

“dominantenga!”

listen to the tapes…don’t just read the transcript…listen to the tapes…

tapes = truth.

did she lie?
did she cheat?
did she steal?
did she do a cover-up?

YES to ALL!

“Let’s say you are running your own company, and you have 2 employees bad-mouthing you, do you glorify their actions?”

Ben, the analogy is faulty because GMA does not own the country. Let’s put it this way: You are in-charge of running a company…

If you did something wrong, e.g., embezzlement or misuse of funds, you cannot blame those people who knew of your actions in telling the truth.

“It’s only proper that these 2 employees do the bad-mouthing after they resign. If you don’t like your military lives and envy the private citizens for being able to join the fiestas, then quit. Shame on Gudani and Balutan.”

I don’t see the logic of the need to resign before you can tell the truth. You are working for that company, and you care for that company, proof of which is the willingness to expose the anomaly which may put the company in a bad position. Resigning from the company is not reflective of your love for that company. It takes courage and integrity to tell the truth when more pragmatic and scheming personnel can instead blackmail the wrongdoer and personally benefit from the whole thing. Gudani and Balutan so much love their profession that they are taking risks just to be true to their code of honor. We should be proud of officers like Gudani and Balutan.

i respect BG Gudani and LTC Balutan,i belive all they had said,during those time and up to now the camp of PGMA have been training goons to kill masquerading as AFP n PNP,they are the equivalent of Gestapo and SS during the time of hitler,belive me,
this goons are the one responsible for all those bombingsand terrorism act that is going on for the last few days and months,
if we dont do something,we are all in hell.
sana we help our men in uniform to fight this fake President GMA,
we need all your support,let all good filipino men anf women to stand against this corrupt and evil fake President.
thank you and mabuhay po tayong mga pilipino
God Bless are all the likes of BG Gudani,Col Morales,LTC Balutan,
Army Capt Mendoza,LtGen Dominguez and all other Senior and Junior
officers of AFP and PNP that soon will go against this evil GMA and her followers.
thank you

God, I can’t believe there are still a FEW people supporting PGMA in this area.

Ano ba yan? Lahat na lang ba idadaan sa permit. GOD Himself gave us a free-will and it’s it up to us how to use that free-will. And this fake government is trying to take it from us. She keeps resisting the truth to come out.

With what is happening now. I dare you!
Sinong pupusta? ON OR BEFORE 2006 GLORIA IS OUT!

BGen. Gudani and Lt.Col. Balutan are two real officers and gentlemen. Others, they don’t the guts to tell the truth. I believe these two officers and gentlemen are really telling the truth. How else will they defy an order from their so called Commander-in-Chief if they are not telling the truth. I salute them but feel sorry other officers just don’t have the courage to face the consequences,sugurista sila.

HOW DARE THESE PEOPLE INSULT BGen. Gudani and Lt.Col. Balutan, they basically sacrificed their life, career and family for the good of all. Their loyalty is to the country not GMA. How many of us can follow their example?

GO!!! GUDANI GO !!!!!!! Thank God may mga opisyales pa rin na kagaya nyo ni Col. Balutan , MABUHAY KAYO!!! Si Senga, kawawa naman nahawa na sa SINGA ng mandarayang daga sa palasyo o baka naman NAAMBUNAN o NAMANTIKAAN KAYA? Judging from the actions and reactions of the LITTLE RAT, who’s illegally occupying the palace, I conclude, she is a MAD WOMAN, MASQUERADING as Chief Executive. Imagine, she speaks of RULE OF LAW but she’s the No. 1 who breaks the law, she invokes separation of powers, yet she imposes power over The Senate, and bribes the crocodiles in the lower house. This woman is obssesed with power, she do will anything to remain in power, she was caught cheating,lying, stealing, bribing, kidnapping, usurping, obstruction of justice, overspending, she thinks she’s above the law. SHE SHOULD BE STOP, You Senators, and the remaining responsible God Fearing AFP,PNP Officers do something, SAVE The Republic before this LITTLE RAT destroys the whole country and the future of our children and our childrens’ childrens!!! Yesterday, she was shown on TV with school children, playing teacher to the young students, I was so alarmed, she’s using the children AGAIN!!! What’s THE LYING LITTLE RAT doing in that classroom, teach them her version of truth, honesty? Parents should protest!!! THE LITTLE RAT is a USER!!! She had used anything, everything including her grandchildren, INDEED,this LITTLE RAT is a MAD WOMAN!!!

Few Good Men and Soldiers. Soldiers of the people

Pres. Gloria Arroyo
Commander-In-Sh*t

[…] Then it hit me. She’s dead serious about being the bully now, and it’s scaring the badoodles out of me. Now, I pride myself in my testicular fortitude, and despite my previous misgivings about GMA, I never really thought she’d go this far. By saying that “all heads of departments of the Executive branch of teh government shall secure the consent of the government prior to appearing before House or Congress8,” she’s basically saying that the Senate or Congress can’t question anything that she does anymore. By putting restraints on the right for peacable assembly, neither can we. […]

Gusto ko lang sanang iparating itong mensahe ko sa lahat ng mga sundalo at pulis na nasa mababang ranggo. Mayroon nang mga heneral na magigiting na nagsalita na kahit na siguradong pahihirapan ng gobyerno. Sana naman sundan ninyo sila at bantayan. Sana naman kumilos na kayo para naman mapabuti na ang ating bansa. Huwag ninyong pabayaan ang kapwa ninyong Pilipino. Show us, the Filipino people, that you have the courage not only to fight the terrorists and fundamentalists but the real terrorists in the government as well. Kayo na lang ang pag-asa ng kawawang Pilipinas. Hindi kami nagpapakahirap sa malupit na Middle East para sa aming pamilya kundi na rin para makatulong sa bansa sa pamamagitan ng aming remittances. Pero ano ang napapala namin at ng ating kababayan diyan sa Pilipinas. Wala. Please, on behalf of the other OFWs, I beg you to do your moral duty. Maraming salamat.

MABUHAY SI GEN. GUDANI. & COL. BALUTAN!!!! SANA MAY SUMUNOD PA SA INYO NA NASA MILITARY AT GAYAHIN ANG INYONG EHEMPLO. NANINIWALA AKONG HINDI LAHAT NG NASA MILITARY AY CORRUPT. MABUHAY KAYO !

PERO ETO ANG NAKAKA-ALARMA. KAHAPON SA NEWS ANG PEKENG PANGULO NASA LOOB NG CLASSROOM NG MGA BATANG ESTUDYANTE. MGA MAGULANG, DI BA KAYO NA-A-ALARMA AT MAGPO-PROTESTA? NGAYON GINAGAMIT NG PEKENG PANGULO ANG MGA BATA. INUUMPISAHAN NA NIYANG I-CORRUPT ANG MURANG ISIP NG MGA KABATAAN. SIYA NA ISANG EHEMPLO NG KASAMAAN AY NAGPAPAKITA NG PEKENG PAKIKITUNGO SA MGA BATANG ESTUDYANTE (GRADE SCHOOLERS), TITSERS AT SA MGA MAGULANG NA NAROROON SA ESKWELAHAN. DI NA NIYA KAYANG I-CORRUPT ANG ISIPAN NG MGA HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS KAYA MGA GRADE SCHOOL STUDENTS NA NGAYON ANG PINUPUNTIRYA NIYA. DAPAT TAYONG MA-ALARMA SA BAGONG GIMMICK NI PANDAK. DI AKO MAGTATAKA NA OUT OF DESPERATION SA BANDANG HULI HOSTAGE-TAKING NA ANG GAGAWIN NYAN AT ANG MAGIGING BIKTIMA NIYA ANG MGA BATANG WALANG MUWANG. MGA KABABAYAN, KAILANGAN NA NATING KUMILOS HANGGA’T MAY PAGKAKATAON. WAG NA NATING HINTAYIN NA LUMALA PA LALO ANG SITUATION SA ATING BANSA. MAGKAISA NA TAYO !!!KAILANGAN NA NATING KUMILOS NGAYON !

I AM FORWARDING CONRADO DE QUIRO’S LETTER TO THE FILIPINO PEOPLE. IT’S REALLY WORTH READING, THINKING AND TAKING ACTION…

There’s The Rub : Silence

Editor’s Note: Published on Page A14 of the September 29, 2005 issue of the Philippine Daily Inquirer

DEAR CITIZENS:

I don’t know if it’s just me, but don’t you find anything odd about the decision of Malacañang to protest the grilling of National Security Adviser Noberto Gonzales by the Senate?

If you recall, Gonzales was caught with his pants down-my apologies for spoiling your breakfast with that figure of speech-selling the country to, well, if not the enemy, to an American lobby group named Venable. Venable was supposed to lobby the US Congress to fund Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s plan to change the Charter. Last we looked, of course, the Charter was still an exclusively Filipino matter and the United States was not part of the Philippines. Apparently, the national security chief thought we had annexed that country while the world slept.

At the Senate hearing, the senators heard nothing. That was because the national security chief said nothing, figuring his own security, and that of his boss, was in dire peril. Either that or he was scared that the senators might find out he was no more the guardian of this country’s security than his namesake Raul Gonzalez was the guardian of this country’s justice, than the bishops were the guardian of this country’s morality. Or he might have remembered Mark Twain’s famous aphorism that it is better to keep your mouth shut and look like a fool than to open it and confirm the fact.

Gonzales has committed a monumental — well, the official term is — “lapse in judgment,” by asking the US Congress to help us write our fundamental law; Gonzales has lapsed into a profound silence concerning a matter that threatens the security of our nation; Gonzales has delivered a master stroke by suffering a minor stroke. And whom does Malacañang want to punish for this?

The senators.

Astounding as that is, there is something even more astounding. That is not the fact that many commentators on TV and radio and the newspapers are enthused by the sagacity of this thought, agreeing wholeheartedly that Malacañang’s move champions the separation of the branches of government. It is not the fact that many lawyers in this country are full of praise for the wisdom of this thought, arguing earnestly that Malacañang’s move champions the rule of law. It is not the fact that many bishops and businessmen are full of whatever and find absolute merit in this thought, thundering that at last we are glimpsing the light of reason amid the chaos.

What is most astounding is that you, the citizens, find this the most natural thing in the world. I take this by your silence. As profound as Gonzales being struck dumb by the march of truth, or the seriousness of Joker Arroyo — whichever he found more terrifying. I take this by your inaction. As staggering as the bovine indifference of animals being led to the slaughter or the unfathomable stillness of the cosmos — whichever is the more mind-boggling.

Gonzales’ lapse in judgment is but the latest in a series of lapses in judgment that is causing this country to lapse into a coma. Individually, these lapses in judgment do not just gnaw at the foundations of democracy, they strike down the foundations of decency. Yet, you stand by and do nothing. Ms Arroyo lies about not running again, and you do nothing. Ms Arroyo cheats you of your vote, and you do nothing. Ms Arroyo steals your right to gather to protest, and you do nothing.

I don’t know which scares the hell out of me more, the period before martial law or today. At least before martial law, one worried only about what Marcos would do. One worried what new and devious plot he was hatching in his tortuous brain. One worried what whole new dimensions of oppression he was bent on springing on an unsuspecting public. Today, one worries not just about what Ms Arroyo would do, what new threshold of good manners and right conduct she will overstep. Today, one worries as well about what you, the citizens, will not do. One worries about what new slap in the face you will be willing to take, what new imposition you will be willing to suffer.

People have been warning loudly that if Ms Arroyo makes the mistake of declaring martial law, she will have doomed herself, this country will not take it sitting down. I am not so sure about that.

At the very least, that is so because you learn to live with new levels of intolerance each day, saying what else is new, that is to be expected from Ms Arroyo, and you will get the worst and not find anything new in it. People do get inured to flogging, the hides on their backs thicken, and they do not feel anything anymore when the whip bites into their flesh. That is how tyranny flourishes. All it takes is to reconcile yourself with the first lie or act of injustice. The rest follows easily.

At the very most that is so because I don’t know that you will recognize martial law when it stares you in the face. If even your bishops have lost the faculty to see the truth about Ms Arroyo’s illegitimacy, notwithstanding the “Hello Garci” tape, notwithstanding her apology, and notwithstanding God’s writing on the wall (“Signs of the Times,” I recall, was the title of their pamphlet during Marcos’ time, resonating with prophetic vision), then I wonder if you haven’t too. As it is, martial law has already crept up on us. In lieu of a muzzled press, a bought one; in lieu of civil liberties, banned rallies; in lieu of spreading fear, eroding values; in lieu of justice, the law of the Firm; in lieu of “vox populi, vox Dei,” “vox Aroyo, vox Garci.” And you do see nothing.

There is only one thing worse than being silenced, and that is being mute. There is only one thing worse than being blinded, and that is being blind. There is only one thing worse than chafing at your chains, and that is loving them.

There is only one thing worse than Ms Arroyo ruling by fiat. That is a people not caring that she does.

this reminds me of the movie “A FEW GOOD MEN”…

i pity the two generals who stood for truth and principles and yet what do they get?… but i pity even more GMA and all the people who still think that they can fool the filipinos.

what else do you need?… mahati ang lupa para lang maawa na kayo sa bansa at mga kapwa natin pilipino?…

Being the soldier’s commander in chief, the president can really command them what to or what not to do.

apparently ganun.. pag sa utusan.. it emanates from the commander in chief.. pag nagkabukingan na.. sila sila nalang… if we follow that logic then dapat the president should be answerable din sa congress for the oakwood mutiny?? those are her men…

SALUDO KAMI SA INYO GEN. GUDANI AT LT. COL BALUTAN MABUHAY KAYO. NAKAKAHIYA ANG ILANG MGA SUNDALO PA MAN DIN NATURINGAN NA AYAW TUMAYO PARA SA KATOTOHANAN, ITO LANG ANG MASASABI KO SA INYO, “MGA DUWAG KAYO, MATATAPANG LANG KAYONG MANGURAKOT” GMA ITO NAMAN ANG MENSAHE KO SA IYO, “ANG TIGAS NG MUKHA MO SAMPU NG IYONG MGA KAMPON. MAHIYA NAMAN KAYO” PWE!!!!!

the soldiers broke the chain of command so in fairness the chief must not share the responsibilities of their actions.

yup but if we have a president or commander in chief for that matter who fails to micro manage the afp and see to it na di lahat ng pondo nito napupunta to a chap named garcia dont think we would have an oakwood in the first place..Me thinks she should watch probe, eyewitness, among other documentaries so she can have a feel as to the true state of our nation.. di yung pumupunta lang sya sa mga places na welcome sya.. seeing people na kaalyado nya.. whats the sense in doing that?? puntahan nya yung mga kaaway nya.. dun sa places na kailangan sya dun sya magpaliwanag.. that would make much more sense.. para di syang yung mga taxpayers money natin..

for everybody, maybe we should wear black armbands to signify our opposition to gma’s unlawful occupancy of the palace. this is more logistically viable than a rally although we can do that too. but this may at least give us a sense of community if we see each other in the streets/buildings/offices and a way of knowing that there are a lot of us out there who do not accept the lies and bullying of malacanang. kung alam ko lang kung saan puedeng magpagawa ng “livestrong”-type na bands, magpapagawa ako ng maraming kulay itim at bibigyan ko kayong lahat.

by the way, galing ng paliwanag mo huseng bulag. mismo! you showed the arguments of that dude to be flawed and that his logic is faulty.

mariatoo, i admire you, that will be a good idea. if we can show our disgust to this administration in our own little why, why not. lets announce this in the shout box so everyone knows. DOES EVERYONE AGREE TO THIS BLACK ARMBANDS IDEA? Count one in.

okey!!! dun sa mga fashionista black satin ribbons in a bow sa wrist puede rin. 😉

Agree ako dyan sa black armbands. I’ll even go as far as tying a black ribbon on my car’s antenna and my gate at home. Let’s spread the word. Some people may not be able to join the rallies but these ribbons will be as powerful.

Tying a black ribbon on doors, tree branches, car antennas and etc is a good idea. At least, ‘yong hindi makasama sa mga rallies ay may alternative to show that they don’t support the Arroyo administration. We can also wear a black t-shirt on or anything as long as it’s black on certain day of the week katulad no’ng panahon ni Marcos.

I agree that we should wear black or anything with black on a certain day of the week (ex. Friday or Saturday) para sabay sabay…..mas marami mas may impact

My suggestion to bring back “Garci” to the Phils is to put a price on his head. Where the money will come from? There are over 2 million filipinos working/leaving abroad. Imagine if every one of them will contribute just US$1 each!!!

The move to ouster the Commander-in-Cheat is gaining support in the AFP, the obvious reason why GHQ men are exerting extra effort to explain Sister Senga’s decision to all levels of the organization. The meeting in Club Filipino yesterday of retired and active generals says it all.

The AFP’s moves on Gudani and Balutan was the trigger and for the first time, the retired generals’ meeting shunned media. These guys were surely not there to discuss an upcoming golf tournament. Though the “regulars” were present, I was surprised to know the likes of ex-RAM, ex-SFP, ex-KSP military brass were in attendance, too. These guys are genuine – guts, balls and all, very much unlike the “annointed ones” who now command the two camps in EDSA who are actually closet queens wearing Desert Storm Camouflage uniforms over their pink lingerie.

Veronica’s Secrets or somebody else’s?

To my fellow bloggers: In support for Gudani and Balutan, why dont we conduct our own CPR – CARAVAN PUSHING for swift GMA REMOVAL!!!. We can go around Metro Manila with Black Bands, Banners, Streamers(BLACK AS SUGGESTED BY FELLOW BLOGGERS)!!!.We must do our share so that GMA finally realize and STEPDOWN or REMOVED!!!
LETS KEEP THE FIRE BURNING!!!

well i salute those 2 gentleman for being brave enough to face the media and senators and for spilling the true beans on what happened at last year election fraud. our country will no longer be a country to be proud of. god help our country…again THANK YOU GENERALS for being honest and true to your countrymen…

Saludo lahat ng mga matitino at nag-iisip na mga tao kina Gen. Gudani at Lt. Col. Balutan.

Down with the lies and propaganda.
Down with goyang (gloria).

if we will try to read what’s in their mind.. they (GMA and her DOGS) are trying to ‘destroy’ the credibility of the house and the senate for them to have a solid reason to promote charter change… tsk, tsk, tsk… again, indi tanga mga tao.. nakikita namin to…

i am for charter change BUT NOT DURING THE TIME OF PANDAK NOR WITH FVR AND JDV MANNING THE POSTS…

To GMA and her DOGS, hintay lang kayo.. all of these will blow right in front of your faces!

[…] Gudani, then the 1st Marine Brigade commander based in Marawi City, is facing court-martial proceedings after defying Arroyo’s order not to testify before the Senate about allegations that she cheated in the 2004 elections. […]
