A HIGH administration official was behind the leak of an alleged United Embassy report linking President Fidel Ramos to an alleged power grab against President Arroyo, a spokesman of Ramos said yesterday.
The spokesman, Ed Malay, said claims by Palace officials that the opposition was behind the leak was intended to sow confusion.
"Basta hindi talaga opposition ang nagkakalat nito. Siguro ang taong yan gusto lang mag-away away ang lahat," he said.
When pressed to identify the administration official, Malay declined.
"Kung sino yun, mag-deny siya na yun" Malay said in a text message.
He said the timing of the leak was also suspicious.
Ano ba yan?!?!?
A visibly irritated Ramos dared the US Embassy to clarify its report which stated that he was plotting a coup d'etat to unseat Mrs. Arroyo.
“I challenge the US Embassy to disclose the content of its report to determine the truth,” Ramos stressed during the press conference he called upon his arrival at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 2 from China.
Without categorically denying the US Embassy report, Ramos said the US Embassy report was apparently baseless as he asked why it only appeared in just one one newspaper.
He decried the report as being nothing but a report to destroy the good relations between the US and the Philippines, adding that the relations between the two countries are solid.

-- JB Baylon has a good idea:
Just as there is a Freedom Fund to raise money in support of the honorable General Gudani and his aide, why don’t we raise a Truth Fund that will be used to buy a one page ad in, say, four or five of the world’s top newspapers on one single day?
The ad will state that "we, the Filipino people, having been denied at every turn in our search for the truth, now seek the help of the international community in locating the whereabouts of this man" (here is where we insert the picture of Virgilio Garcillano). The ad can continue that "we seek Garcillano’s return to the Philippines – alive – because he holds the key to the truth behind the "Hello Garci" conversations that appear to show the President of the Philippines in numerous, possibly criminal, conversations with an election official, with some conversations even making reference to kidnapping!
Finally, we will state that "any information provided that leads to the location of Garcillano and his safe return to the Philippines will be rewarded with the undying gratefulness of a people yearning for the truth". Then we can give the telephone numbers, fax number and email addresses of the Senate President, the Speaker of the House, the chair of the Commission on Human Rights and the incoming president of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines.
Cool!
