Seriously, another people power??????

MANILA, Philippines—A senior church prelate Sunday said that warnings of another “people power” outburst if next week’s elections were marred by massive fraud were “crazy (and) irresponsible” and the conditions that produced the 1986 popular revolt were not present now.


“The laws are not done in the streets,” Manila Archbishop Gaudencio Cardinal Rosales said in a talk with reporters, adding that the 1986 People Power Revolution that ousted dictator Ferdinand Marcos was “an extraordinary situation.”


“You don’t do that again. That’s why we have the laws now,” he added.

You're right, Cardinal. Extraordinary events call for extraordinary measures. But this is a normal national election, a standard protocol in any democratic state. Are we really getting to be that desperate? That if Noynoy Aquino loses, another people power revolution will happen? Like the only other possible thing that can happen aside from winning would be that 'he was cheated?'

This is plain crazy. I've heard these rumors personally myself, and I can't imagine Noynoy and Kris throwing tantrums in front of Malacanang or the EDSA shrine. These two spoiled brats think that they are "heirs to the throne," and that it is rightfully theirs to take. This isn't a monarchy.

Don't taint the glory and honor of the two EDSA People Powers by creating another one just to simply satisfy the hunger for power of some people. Ninoy and Cory were great people, but unfortunately Kris and Noynoy didn't seem to inherit such greatness in them.
