POKER IS A GAME - election is not. POKER IS NOT A NATIONAL OFFICIAL ACTIVITY - election is
Pare, lets get serious.
Treason refers to an act violating ones obligation - like Gloria Pandak, as President swore/promised and willingly/without coercion accepted the obligation .................
Pare, cheating in an election is an act of treason. It is a very serious offense requiring a death penalty.
Pare, kung ang madaraya sa poker ginugulpi, di dapat mas grabe sa cheating in an election.
Ang sa akin, cuz the Phils is a Republic, Pilipinos are entitled to choose their leader. Kaya forbidding a rally can be another act of treason if it is true that pandak is forbidding rallies.
As a republic, the people of the Phils are entitled to organize rallies without interference from the govt. Rallies such as people power should always be respected - better yet - encouraged specially under this situation where the head of state and commander in chief organized the cheating of elections.
Ngayon ang sinasabi ni Martin Celemin na wala sa constitution ang election fraud as treason. Kasi naman hindi yun ang problema. Ang problem - si Pandak, under oath, swore, promised as President of the Phils to execute the laws of the land. Yun pala, hindi. Result = treason. Ang proof - the tape. Doon sa tape - nalaman natin kung papano nila ginagawa - by telephone she monitors or operates the cheating of elections.
As Commander in Chief, violating her duties is an act of treason. Sana kung hindi niya alam na she is violating her duties - still kahit hindi niya alam - the act was still an act of treason.
TREASON is always punishable by death. The only way this could be carried out is if the military can gather enough courage to assert its superiority over this little girl.
Sa totoo lang, if the military does not agree to subordinate itself under civilian rule, then the military should be the governing power. As when Gen George Washington, after beating the most powerful army of the world during the american revolution, willingly subordinated his army under the rule of Congress or the people or the civilians.
Ngayon kung hindi, di parang Julius Ceasar, when he refused to subordinate his army under the Senate. I'm not sure if Napoleon the Great is another example.
