Inside Philippine politics & beyond

Humor in the impeachment trial

Share:

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.

  1. 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!

  2. There is a rumor Jessica Sanchez will do a concert in Manila. Opening for Jessica is the famous Lady Gago 78%, singing the popular song, Waah, I was born this way – tililing.

  4. 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.
