US$20,000 dinner claim called a lieBy MADEL R. SABATERAugust 15, 2009, 5:39pmDays after the media feasted on the alleged US$20,000 dinner tab of the FAKE President Arroyo and her entourage at the Le Cirque restaurant in New York, the contact manager of Le Cirque has belied an earlier report that has made Arroyo’s dinner in New York very controversial.

In a letter to Press Secretary Cerge Remonde, Philippine Consul General in New York Cecilia Rebong disclosed that the August 14 to 21, 2009 issue of the Filipino Reporter in New York reported that the $20,000 dinner tab controversy is a “lie,” based on an interview with Le Cirque contact manager Mario Wainer.

Wainer was quoted as saying,“it’s a lie” and “it’s far from the truth.” He said:“President Arroyo and her group had dinner here (Le Cirque) just like everyone else.”

“The $20,000 dinner tab was not true,” Rebong also said.

She added:“The article said the Filipino Reporter suggested to Mr. Wainer ‘that in the light of conflicting claims in Manila and by critics of Mrs. Arroyo and by the New York Post, on one hand, and the President’s men, on the other, perhaps, Le Cirque should issue a statement to clarify the issue.’ However, Mr. Wainer replied that we (Le Cirque) do not involve ourselves in politics.”

The Arroyo administration found itself in hot water after a New York Post article dated August 7 revealed that the President and some of her entourage ordered a sumptuous meal and paid $20,000 during her US state visit

But Malacañang said that the dinner was not extravagant as reported.
..........
The FAKE President of cebu Gloria Arroyo, Supporters say, The $20,000. Thousand dinner was a lie. If it is a lie, Then Gloria should sue the newspapers so that she can make more money for her retirement.

Better yet why not show proof that she didn't spend the taxespayer's money. But truth of the matter is she's been spending the taxespayer's money like water. Especially when she have a bag lady given plenty of money to her cronies. And bag lady paying the dinner bills on CASH.

In Arroyo’s time, however, even when there was clear evidence of corruption, cheating, lying and stealing in the top echelons of Malacanang, Arroyo included, the CBCP, in its pastoral letters, was very soft on Arroyo, and even asked Arroyo to lead the fight against corruption.

It was also a time when some of the bishops were found to have accepted bribes from Arroyo and Malacañang, in cash and in kind.

Now, We all know why Tita cory didn't succeed on kicken her ass from her stolen power, Because she's supported by the corrupt people thats including PNP/AFP/JUDIARY'S/BISHOP and evil society's.

An executive jet for Malacañang? Why now, when she only has some nine months left to her term?

Why just now, when all this time, Gloria Arroyo never really traveled in the beat-up planes that the Palace says are no longer safe for travel for the Chief Executive, since she flies on jets owned by her cronies?

Like the mysterious leap-frogging in the First Couple’s wealth since she took over the presidency in 2001, the sudden search for an executive jet by the Office of the FAKE President was the latest jaw-dropping whim of Queen of THIEVES. Gloria!

She wants to buy jet so that she can use it anytime she want so that nobody can find out what she's doing. Especially when she's stealing the taxespayer's money.

The options for her, meantime, are narrowing to bargaining for a safe exit with her probable successor in next year’s elections.

Still, it would be unsure if the next president would provide a mantle of protection for her when the public demands that Gloria and her cabal account for their sins.

It is thus tempting to associate the sudden rush to buy a jet and the narrowing political horizon of Gloria in the run-up to next year’s elections.

A fast and safe getaway definitely is on Gloria’s list of options. Perhaps the jet is it?

Ha, Ha. I guess the jet is her get away when filipino people going to kick her ass out if she ever try to stay into her stolen power forever.

P632M unliquidated cash

Sa likod ng overspen­ding sa foreign trips ng Pangulo, ibinunyag pa ng isang oposisyong kongre­sista na may unliqui­da­ted cash advances at receivables ang Office of the President na umaabot sa P632 milyon mula pa noong 2007.

Ayon kay Bu­kidnon Rep. Teofisto Gui­ngona III, posibleng lumaki pa ang mga unliquida­ted amount ng cash advan­ces at receivable sa mga fo­reign at domestic tra­vels ng Pangulo dahil hindi na naisasama ang taong 2008-2009.

Aniya, dapat ipaliwanag ni Arroyo sa publiko ang mga pinagkagastahan niya sa kanyang biyahe at ang idinulot na benepisyo nito sa kanya.

Kaugnay nito, sinabi ni Bayan Muna party­list Rep. Neri Colmenares na dapat imbestigahan ng Kongreso ang Pangulong Arroyo dahil ‘liable’ ito sa ilalim ng Presidential Decree 46 kung saan kapag napatunayan maaari itong makulong ng isa hanggang limang taon.

“Congress should in­ves­tigate Pres. Arroyo for vio­lating ani-graft law. She is liable for five years imprisonment and perpe­tual disqualification,” pahayag ni Colmenares.
Sinabi pa nito na dapat ding imbestigahan ang Pangulo dahil nabigo itong i-liquidate noong 2008 ang P222.98 mil­yon sa kanyang travel expen­ses.

Hindi inyo puede ipakulong si PEKENG presidenti ng dahil she's supported by the corrupt people who help install her into her stolen power. Not atleast you forget when we try to impeach her, Her cronies just trash the case because they were saying they have the numbers. This is one of the reason why the Philippines keep going down under because of these idiots. Working for government for them only by the numbers. As we all can see it the only reason Gloria Arroyo, Et al. Kick the duly elected President Joseph Estrada, So that they're the one can rob the government coffer.

No wonder they're doing everything in their power to change the constitution law; so that they can stay into their stolen power forever. After all there is plenty of money to be made while in Malacanyang Palace. I'll say, Kick them out.

Ayon sa mapagkaka­tiwalaang source, malaki umano ang paniwala ng Class ‘77 na hindi sila mauungusan ng Class ‘78. Ngunit kung magkakagayon ay tiyak umanong magiging masalimuot ang kalakaran sa loob ng militar at pulisya.

“After Class ‘76, we are rightfully next in line. Class ‘77 boasts of its skilled officials such as Ding Ferrer, Ruperto Pabustan, Ricardo David, Jaime Buenaflor, Pete Tango, Perfecto Palad, Raul Bacalzo and Ireneo Bacolod as examples,” anang isa sa Class ‘77.

Ngunit ibinunyag ng Class ‘77 na mayroon umanong ‘alas’ ang Class ‘78 at ito ay si Undersec. for Special Concerns Medy Poblador upang maisulong sa Malacañang ang kanilang hangarin na makapuwesto sa AFP at PNP.
.........
Class 78 is one of AFP who is protecting the FAKE president Gloria Arroyo, They're the one going to declare war against its own people. In order for Gloria Arroyo, to stay in power. This is one of the reason why they're going to buy a JET so they can use it in their operation.
.........
Si Poblador ay sina­sabing “malakas” kay A­rroyo bilang per­­so­nal confidante ng huli at umano’y “power broker” ng Mala­cañang.

“She is one of the few who reportedly enjoys the trust and confidence of President Arroyo. Poblador was also reported to be the ‘mystery wo­man’ who paid the intrigue-la­den dinner of FAKE President Arroyo in a first-rate restaurant in New York,” anang isa pang source.
........
Yes, Its true! and the money she paid for the $35,000. Dinner is from the taxespayer's money.
........
Matatandaang ang Class ‘78 ng PMA ay nauna nang isinangkot sa Oplan: August Moon. Isang uri umano ng self-coup ng kasalukuyang administrasyon na ang ta­nging layunin diumano ay mapalawig sa puwesto si PEKENG Pangulong Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo sa anumang paraan, at isa rito ay ang pagdedeklara ng Martial Law sa gitna ng kudeta at kaguluhan.

Ang Class ‘78 din ang umampon kay Arroyo bilang ‘honorary member’ kaya’t kilala umanong malapit sa PEKENG Pangulo ang batch na ito ng PMAer.

Bago lumutang ang Oplan: August Moon ay isa-isa nang ipinuwesto bilang district heads ng PNP sa Metro Manila ang mga miyembro ng Class ‘78, dahilan upang lalong tumatag ang hinala sa katotohanan ng naturang operasyon na makailang ulit nang itinanggi ng Malacañang at ng pamunuan ng AFP at PNP.

MANILA, Philippines--An officer of the Philippine Consulate in New York has sent a memorandum to the Office of the Press Secretary, saying the New York Post report on the pricey dinner of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and her party at the swanky Le Cirque restaurant in New York City on August 2 was inaccurate.
......
If the story in NY newspapers is not true then usued the newspapers, So that Gloria Arroyo, make plenty of money for her retirement. Mga ungoy!
......
New York Consul General Cecilia Rebong cited a Filipino-American weekly's story on the alleged $20,000 tab, in the memorandum dated August 14, to Press Secretary Cerge Remonde.

Rebong told Remonde that Manny Caballero, writer of the Filipino Reporter, had interviewed Le Cirque's contact manager Mario Wainer and wrote a story about the dinner that came out in the paper's August 14-21 issue.

In the story, "Mr. Wainer was quoted as saying `It's a lie' and `It's far from the truth," Rebong said, adding that Wainer said Arroyo and her entourage "had dinner here like everyone else."

Remonde refused to answer follow-up questions.

Rebong furnished him a copy of Caballero's story, and vouched for the credibility of the weekly, Remonde said.

"Let the document speak for itself," Remonde said, when asked if Malacañang was standing by the document.

The dinner, which appeared in the online edition of the New York Post, set off a furor in the Philippines where most Filipinos live in poverty.

After the New York Post story came out, the Washington Post posted a report in its blog site that the President and her entourage also had dinner at Bobby Van’s Steakhouse after meeting with President Obama on July 30. The dinner for a party of 65 reportedly cost $15,000.

In Germany we are engaged in election.
Today i met a person who is older than me and had two grown up children.
The guy with whom i CONVERSED is a german and his wife is from Philliphine.

The grown up kids are highly proficient in German language the the father.

Is it paradox?
Are there any lady to collect shoes so that the GI's from USA to send war plane( I mean two planes) to lifet from Maniana to hawai?

24/7 hotline, assistance center
Si PEKENG PRESIDENTI GLORIA ARROYO, MY 24/7 HOTLINE SIYA, Anytime she call them they all come because she's been given them plenty of money to protect her from her stolen power. The rest can go hang!
......
She will also work to ensure that all Philippine posts overseas will have a 24/7 assistance hotline and center that will provide OFWs in distress with the immediate financial, technical and legal assistance.

Likewise, a repatriation fund is on top of Legarda’s agenda for OFWs in her first 100 days in office.

Last December, Legarda assisted in the repatriation of 12 OFWs trafficked in Malaysia.

“Wala pong repatriation fund na emergency ang ating mga embahada at konsulado na dapat gawin natin po,” she said.

Lastly, Legarda also sees the need to have a skills development training and free scholarship program for the OFW family. The fund, she said, would come from the billion-dollar OWWA fund.

“Dapat gamitin talaga sa ating overseas Filipino workers.
.........
kong gagamitin ng government ang "OWWA FUND" for OFW'S Gloria Arroyo, Is not going to have any money left for her $35,000. Thousand dollars dinner. Ano siya tanga!

It takes long time to make USA as a normal country.
Of course it is uncharitable or detestable or despicable to criticize the DREAMS of usa

"Normal" in the european sense means socialist. Hopefully US will not become "normal".

I have an American Dream sir.
You can elect a resident .
But change and hope is never ending DREAMS.
Because it is a country with illusions and dreams.

Hopefully the US will not fall into the trap prepared for them by secret fascists, as these had controlled their media and other institutions as evident by the use of ignorant America as military tool for oil war profiteerings.

Be vigilant about the trap of enslaving America by destroying her from within thru puppet trash media corrupting her culture towards the ultimate plan of totalitarian super-capitalism by corrupt world governments. That may be the case when Americans remain ignorant to the vile manipulations.

Unfortunately, ignorant Filipinos also tend to ape their American counterparts.

Sure, but for those who dream about america becoming a federation or a strong state (welfare state) I hope it just remain in their dreams.

My dream is to increase freedom, not sell it out for "benefits".

You are right about that. Problem here is "stronger gov'ment", loads of new laws and tax increases as well.

Much of this move is inspired/directed by the EU and the Vatican though.

Hey RamaFuX...Hitler had a dream about 70 years ago. You sound a little bitter because we shattered that dream all to hell. Oh Well..Too bad...

Actually, the US had almost nearly fallen to the trap, had not Obama won. But then American politics seemed ruled from both arms infiltrated by the same master puppeteers. Americans need to be extra smart to decipher the manipulations, but then trash entertainment media puppetry conspired to the dumbing down of society, Filipino apers included.

I believe it would be tragic had Bush & Co. agenda won. By then your dream would turn into nightmare as they had started corrupting it, recall the hoax of WMD excuse of invading Iraq, and the excuse of "homeland security" at the expense of selling your privacy rights. American freedom had been continually been sold like merchandise by the fascists and they were able to do so due to continued ignorance of its citizens.

NY consul says banquet story inaccurate.
....
Is that so! If is not true then the FAKE president Gloria Arroyo, Et al. Should sued the newspapers to make more money for their retirement. It does'nt matter how much they depend thenselves nobody believe them because they already proven themselves to be the NUMBER ONE LIAR! MGA KAWATAN! MABULONAN SANA KAYA!
