My good friend sent me an e-mail with a blog post from a Facebook user named Happy Feraren. While she was waiting for President Cory Aquino’s cortege, she and her Mom decided to buy a yellow umbrella. They were then given a yellow beaded bracelet afterwards for free. However, when they looked closer at the bracelet, it had the picture of Senator Jamby Madrigal, who recently declared her intention to run for the Presidency in 2010. Senator Madrigal, with all due respect, I think you’ve crossed the line with your politicking. Giving away campaign materials during the memorial service of former President Aquino is just foul and disrespectful. Here’s a picture of the supposed Jamby Madrigal Bracelet:

Shame on your Jamby Madrigal by Happy Feraren
Now that we’ve remembered, relived and recreated the spirit of ’86 let’s make sure this yellow ribbon doesn’t get tangled up in other people’s political campaigns.
Subtle electioneering IN A FUNERAL?!?! SHAME ON YOU. Do not ride on Cory’s wave to pursue your vested interest. The people who waited in the streets weren’t there to see you! The revolution doesn’t belong to you, phony politician, it belongs to the people. And what makes you think you could get away with such a dirty trick? Cory’s lasting impression of sincerity, humility and honesty is now the benchmark of what leaders are supposed to be. You think people don’t see through you? The respect we have for Cory is not something you acquire with falsity (or through endorsement from Judy Ann Santos) it is earned. How dare you pose as someone offering sympathy to the Aquino family while you think about the votes you’re going to get come election time.
As I waited for the cortege (news networks’ new favourite word) along the South Super Highway, my mom and I bought 2 yellow umbrellas from this street vendor who was also selling nuts. And then as we paid, he pulled out something from his pocket – a yellow beaded bracelet nicely packed in a small clear plastic bag. Upon handing it over to us, he said: “Eto o, bonus para sa inyo.”Of course my mom and I were pleased and were all “awww how sweet.”Until I actually looked at the bracelet and saw a little tag with the name and photo of Jamby Madrigal.
I called out to him and asked, “O bakit may Jamby Madrigal itong bracelet na ito” and when I looked at the vendor for an answer he had already walked away.
Maybe an hour before this incident, I saw her car passing by the growing sea of people. Window open, flashing the L sign and strangely enough, a cameraman in front filming the people. My mom started shouting “Transparencyyyy!” and then I looked at her asking if I could put up my middle finger and my mom looked at me and said I should just shout transparency, accountability or good governance. In other words “BOOOOOOOO!!!!” And then the two of us just started shouting BOO JAMBY!!!
I am utterly disgusted by you, Ms.Madrigal. And to you other filthy politicians, behave yourselves because we are all watching you, even if you’re supposedly Cory’s “favorite” mayor. Genuine democracy is People Power and everything Ninoy and Cory stood for. It also means that now, whenever there’s a phony claiming he or she is there to protect Cory’s legacy, we will be able to speak up and act with the same fearless fervour we had before.
You know sometimes I wish I could march in the government offices with a magical broom that can sweep away all the dirty politicians we have in this country. A giant clean up, but this time not just for the environment but for our government. Haha, imagine if we could really do that? I’m already writing down the names of the people I’d attack first with my magic walis!
So, before you file for candidacy (a bit too late though in this case) think again. Actually, good luck! The people have remembered.
Taken from Facebook Notes
Senator Madrigal, if memory serves me right, there were close to 300,000 people during Cory’s memorial service. By spitting at her memory by campaigning, you just lost 300,000 votes for 2010. I’m sure you will lose millions more when this piece of information spreads out to the general public. This Jamby Madrigal Bracelet fiasco is something that I just can’t stomach.
To all bloggers out there, please re-post. Let’s get the word out.

An article in the Philippine Star reads that the AFP has gotten hold of documents revealing the plans of the CPP-NPA to support a certain woman presidentiable with whom they've met with personally. The woman allegedly donated 1 billion pesos to the organization to earn this support.
Granted, AFP intelligence is highly skeptical. But if this is true, then si kuya ang no.1 suspect ko...

Jamby VIP treatment irks passport applicants
SENATOR Consuelo “Jamby” Madrigal irked a lot of people at the Department of Foreign Affairs when she went ahead of a long line of applicants to get her machine readable passport (e-passport) last August 26.
With a whole entourage of security and staff, she arrived at the DFA at around 2:30 p.m. and directly proceeded to the office of the director for passports.
Passport-processing operations at the e-passport lounge was stopped for about an hour to secure the area for her arrival.
Madrigal has time and again said that she lives a simple life, even claiming that she wears simple clothes, despite being part of the rich Madrigal clan. The “feeling VIP” incident at the DFA runs contrary to her statements of simplicity.
The delay in passport processing caught the ire of a long line of applicants who had to be at the DFA early to get their e-passports. They went through the normal route of identity verification, paying the fees, and eventually lining up for the data capturing, including getting the digital picture. Madrigal went straight to data capturing.
Said one applicant, “Ang tagal naming nakapila tapos lalo pa kaming pinaghintay. ’Kala mo presidente si Jamby. Sabi niya sa TV simple lang daw siyang tao kaya paulit-ulit lang ang damit. Reyna Elena pala kung umasta.”
Another irate applicant said, “Kung prinsesita pala ang pag-uugali ni Jamby, paano pa kung mag-presidente siya?”
The e-passport is a project of the DFA to combat passport fraud and to improve the image of the country. There are about 10,000 to 12,000 passport applicants daily all over the country.
