Trim the fat!

Eto ang sabi ni Dean Bocobo re the budget:

Last week House Speaker Jose de Venecia announced the passage by his chamber of a record 1.125 TRILLION Peso budget. "Intact" is how the President and the House want their pork, please, intoning the hope that the Senate will immediately work on the measure.

Me too!

Pero dapat idaan sa liposuction muna raw ang budget. I agree.

LIPOSUCTION: Regarding the proposed 2007 National Budget, the good Senators ought to put that pig through the wringer and do a VICKY BELO job on an election-season oinker that's just bursting with bacon-and-butter cholesterol. The Senate should do an honest-to-God good job and pass a budget that is lean and mean and truly responsive to the needs of the nation, not the needs of the President alone.

i agree. i think the senate better cut out the fat, dahil yang pork barrel na nakasiksik sa 2007 budget ay yang gagamitin ng mga kaalyado ni Arroyo para ma-maintain ang hawak nila sa kapangyarihan. Dapat i-abolish na ang pork barrel politics para mabawasan ang corruption at ang paggamit ng gov't funds for election and political purposes.
