    Arroyo seeking House seat in 2010

    DAR chief: She often tells close allies of plan

    COTABATO CITY—President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo will definitely step down in 2010 and run for Congress in her home province of Pampanga, a Cabinet official said Friday.
    Agrarian Reform Secretary Nasser Pangandaman gave this apparently categorical statement on Ms Arroyo’s political plans when he spoke to reporters at the sidelines of the Independence Day celebrations in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), where he was a guest speaker.
    “Definitely, she is running for Congress and would represent the people of Pampanga,” Pangandaman, one of Ms Arroyo’s staunch supporters, said. “She is definitely stepping down after her term.”
    Pangandaman said Ms Arroyo had always told those close to her about her plans to run in the congressional race in Pampanga.
    He said Ms Arroyo made her latest statement on the matter during a meeting of the Legislative-Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) earlier this week.
    “This should allay the fears of the opposition about the no-election scenario,” Pangandaman said.

    An appropriate theme for her is Depeche Mode's "I just can't get enough."

    the immunity granted to congressmen extends only to crimes punishable by not more than six years of imprisonment. The crime of rape carries with it the penalty of reclusion perpetua which has a minimum penalty of 20 years and one day and a maximum penalty of 40 years. Hence, the immunity will not apply.

    Correct me if I'm wrong pero diba pag nag-shift to
    parliamentary system, automatic na yung mga members
    of Congress will become the Parliament ministers.

    Then obvious na strategy ni Pandak. Pepwesto na siya
    so that pagpalit ng sistema pasok na siya sa Parliament.
    Since majority tuta niya sa Congress, sigurado Prime
    Minister na siya where she can get back all the power
    she wants and all the immunity she needs!

    she will continue the legacy of her staunch cohort, Speaker Nograles, so that she can have the opportunity to be a Prime Minister.

    the penalty under R.A. 7080 or the plunder law is reclusion perpetua to death. since the death penalty is momentarily not in force, the penalty of reclusion perpetua will be meted out to her if she will be convicted.

    probably, pgma will run in the 2010 elections in order to sponsor a bill that would lower down the penalty of plunder. in addition, she will still have the power to wield influence and power to prevent incarceration.

    They----the Arroyos---are just inebriated with power.

    Its the apathy of the Filipino people which would help her succeed in their selfish motives.

    It is now my thinking that Arroyo even surpass Marcos as a wrecker of the Filipino psych.

    Problems like population growth, education, jobs, economy are not being addressed fully---just the usual lip service.

    In the meantime, we are left basically to our own devices.

    At least Marcos did something good back then for the people.

    Anyway, it's really a surprise that no one is killing the the Arroyo family.
