Why didn’t JDV open his mouth before he was ousted? He is just sour-graping. He lost the votes becoz he was not a good leader and he didn’t win the popularity contest. Even the more leftist congressmen voted him out and went for Nograles.

Sirang sira? WOW! You must really know about the economy - are you the Central Bank gov? We have the best economy in 31 years! Aren’t you reading the opposition-leaning media? Even they are saying that the economy is great.

kawawa nmn c JDV? bakit? mayaman naman sila. di naman sila naghihirap. bakit siya kawawa. he will live. and he will probably join the opposition and be their darling or poster boy.
