Mike Defensor reads Ellen's blog

Defensor admitted this to Ellen:

Mike Defensor, told me Tuesday night that he reads this blog.

He complained, “Grabe naman Ellen, yung blog mo. panay banat.”

I said, “siyempre, maraming dapat ikagalit sa mga ginagawa nyo.”

As a parting shot, he told me, “Positive naman ha.”

I said, “I’m always positive. I advocate truth and justice.”

He said, “Naloko na.”

Now, sino kaya sa mga commenters ni Ellen si Mike Defensor? is it anthony scalia? hindinapinoy? we-will-never-learn?

Maceda reveals the behind the scenes negotiation with the Wednesday Group. Sabi nya:

MR. EXPOSE
02/15/07, Tribune

Now you know. For six weeks, Senators Ralph Recto and Joker Arroyo kept Senate President Manuel Villar Jr. and detained President Erap waiting and hanging.

Now, the story is out that during the month of January, Senator Recto got P150 million in “pork barrel” for Batangas released and another P150 million for other parts of the country. What a sharp cookie. He certainly put one over Manny Villar and Kiko Pangilinan, keeping them hanging while negotiating terms with GMA.

Joker Arroyo said one reason he can’t join the UNO was that the opposition coalition included Lt./SG Sonny Trillanes IV, a rebel, in its slate. But the fact is, Joker had joined Team GMA before UNO even announced Trillanes. What a shallow alibi.

IIRC, there were 4 slots remaining in the Grand Coalition for the Wednesday Group, after the first 8 candidates were named (Roco later Replaced JV, but 4 slots still remained for the recto, joker et al).

If all four members of the Wednesday group agreed to become part of the Grand coalition, coseteng and trillanes would not have been picked. I thought Trillanes and Coseteng were last minute replacements after Joker and Recto went to the dark side.

I agree when Maceda says Joker's reasoning is shallow. I'll go further and say that joker's excuse is BS. and jokers knows it.
