Walking Troll

Dear Kuya Mike. I doubt much of the voting public has seen the movie Walking Tall. So that movie reference is probably going to go over a lot of people's heads.

And P.S. You look like a total ass in your posters.

If dumb posters and jingles were reason enough not to vote for people, we'd have a lot less candidates.

Take Pareng Ed for example. We have a completely unremarkable mugshot of him above which is printed "Ang Gara ng Buhay." Um... and?

I know the reference being made to your surname but what does it say about you and your platform? Magiging magara ba buhay 'pag nahalal ka sa Senado? If that's what you mean, then say it. Otherwise all you have is a pretty dumb-looking poster gaping at thousands of commuters on their way to work.

Of course, he has Sarah Geronimo on TV so that should get him some pogi points with any Kapamilya fans.

But the absolute worse has to be... Mike Zubiri's. I swear I'm going to hunt down the fool who wrote that Boom Tarat Tarat bit and disembowel him. Jesus, I hate Wowowee...

I have to admit though, I like Joker Arroyo's ad. "'Pag bad ka, lagot ka." And his little cartoon picture is cute.

"So you're voting for him?," you ask. Of course not. Administrasyon? Pwede fucking ba?

***

"So who are you voting for?" Anyone who isn't running under President Bitch. And anyone who isn't running under Erap Corrupt. That leaves about... three people. Sigh.

I haven't gotten my voter's ID yet. And I must say I'm not particularly motivated to get it. But I'll do my damnest to vote, if only to keep some slimy sonofabitch from using my name to vote for some festering toad who should be looking down the barrel of a sniper's rifle instead of at a term in public office.

So if you're a citizen, and of legal age, get out and vote! Before some motherfucker misuses your name!
