Filipinos always respond to a political crisis the best way they know how – through pointed, sarcastic and devastating humor.
Here are some examples of what’s going around the Internet. There do not seem to be any works defending Chief Justice Renato Corona. If there are, let me know.
For those whom I neglect to acknowledge here because there was no sign of who had made it, please drop me a line so I can add your name.

Mga Pilipino mahilig sa uso, ngayon ang uso ay biglang atakihin kapag naharap sa imbestigasyon, kaya mabili ang wheelchair.

Why do people think this impeachment is about cleaning the corrupt/government? Its NOT.

What a great and pleasant end for a 44-day drama. Thanks a lot Raissa… I’ve been with you for more than two months now and I say that this site has made the long wait for justice bearable, exciting and very enjoyable. Ano naman kaya ang susunod na susundan natin???? Am gonna miss you guys…. Again, thanks to you Raissa and the very intelligent bloggers and CPM members, more importantly, johnnylin and baycas… My husband and I indeed learned a lot from your inputs and analyses. Raissa, journalist par excellence!!! More power to you.
raissa says
You’re welcome, Jobee.

Hi Raissa. I can’t access your fb account. I wanted to tag you in one of my posts, pero I couldn’t. Your name and blank profile pic appears in my list but it says your account has been disabled. I searched for your name, several Raissas but no you. So I peeked at Alan’s, wala din name mo. So I thought, perhaps you’re not friends with him (what for when magkatabi naman kayo hehe…). So I checked Ellen Tordesillas’ list, you’re not there too. Malulungkot na sana ako na bakit inunfriend moko…hehe… (Posted it here coz I can’t access your latest blog).
Alan says
something or somebody caused her FB page to be abruptly taken down. We’re investigating
Huseng Batute says
that explains why. kahapon pa kami nghahahanap ng updates sa fb page nyo ms. raissa and hanap dn ako bat nawala sya sa friend list ko. i checked with Reyna Elena who is a common friend sa list wala rin si ms. Raissa sa friend list nya sa fb. ang suspicion ko baka they reported ms. raissa’s fb page simultaneously as planned by those bitter pro corona trolls as offensive kaya tnake down ng fb muna. pero usually ngnonotify ang fb pag me report sa account mo. kaya pala wala update si ms. raissa post corona trial after the guilty blog here.
Mafe says
I hope you get it sorted out soon. Take care you two.

Hehehehhe!!!! this is so hilarious….napatawa ako ng wagas na wagas…

Hi Ms Raissa.These photos are soooooo funny and we deserve to be happy now that the outcome of the impeachment trial was what we were praying and hoping for!
Maraming salamat Ms Raissa and sir Alan.
Katulad ng sinasabi ng nakakarami dito,marami din akong natutunan.Napakasarap magbasa kasi napakagaling nyo.
Naway patnubayan kayo ng Panginoong Diyos sa walang sawang paghahanap at pagsusulat nyo ng katotohanan at sa pagmamalasakit sa ating mahal na bayan.
Take care always and may God bless you and your family!
raissa says
You’re welcome, Jopax.
Remember, your voice matters.
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Raissa,
There are quite a lot of humorous pictures done and posted in this blog
by CPMers during the height of the impeachment trial. I cannot just remember all the links because there were so many comments submitted by the CPMers . There was this poster entitled “ISANG TAWAG KA LANG”. Hope those were responsible in posting their humorous pictures repost the same in this blog for others to see and have a good laugh.

I’ve not read the pages for almost a month, since May 20, 2012 because our house was burned, totally burned with everything in it…my desk top and TV monitor…ngayon nasa internet cafe’ na lang ako nagbabayad ng oras-oras para lang mabasa and mga sulat ninyo and contributions. Ngayon nga kahit sumasakit ang ulo ko sa problema namin sa aming bahay…hindi ko talaga mapaigilan ang tumawa to the max dahil sa mga nakita at nabassa ko dito…
I have been faithful sa pagsunod at kababasa ng mga sinusulat ninyo…hanggang magumaga gising pa rin ako …nagbabasa parin ngunit ng masunog kami noong araw na iyon…hindi ko na nalaman kung ano ang nagyari sa impeachment trial…mabuti na lang at naisip ng asawa ko ang bumili ng radio but siempre hindi ako kontento…hangang noong isang araw naisip ko ang internet cafe…at ito ako ngayon…hindi na kontento sa pagbabasa lang gusto ko nang sumalisa hatawanng pag-iisip…sana welcome ako…kahit sa ganito lang mawala sa akin ang sakit ng kamalasan dala ng apoy…salamat po! From tacloban nga pala ako…

Nakakalungkot ang nangyari sa inyo. Sana’y malampasan mo lahat ang pagsubok ngayon at ang mga darating pa. Nagagalak ako’t andito ka sa CPM. Sana’t mabusog ka sa tawa, tuwa at sa kaisipan. Welcome back!
