Poor Roco, Kinakawawa ng mga Pro-GMA media surrogates

On the day na uuwi na si Roco sa Pilipinas and before making any formal announcements about his plans for the campaign, inunahan na siya ng mga pro-GMA media like Inquirer and Manila Times sa pag-spread ng chismis (disguised as "news") na aatras raw siya dahil sa sakit na cancer.

One partisan pro-GMA blogsite has been relentless in using the same "talking points" from GMA surrogates to attack Roco on his health issue.

Parang sinasabi ng mga GMA supporters na "sana malala ang sakit ni Roco para mapunta na sa amin ang mga boto niya."

Well, that's politics in the Philippines folks -- cruel and ruthless.

Although GMA has been told not to attack Roco on the C issue, her surrogates in Congress, in "civil society" and in the media continue to assault Roco and do the "dirty works" for her.

Hindi nila mapaatras si Roco, kaya sisiraan na lang nila ito para wala nang bumoto sa kanya.

Disgusting.
