Kaban ni D_BystandeR: PANAHOM

It's easy to detect a writer's inclination if his piece is telling the truth or headed to the gutter or, if, in the course of presenting his premise in the inter-plays of ideas he tries to draw a line in his syllogism in preparation for what he wants to come up. And yet after reading the whole thing, I cannot help but be reminded of how Bong W. has allowed his pen to be prostituted in the past in the name of politics.

 In the waning days of Ex-Gov. Gwen's term, I found out how his highly acquired status as a trusted, dependable and respected columnist easily crumbled into nothing because of politics. (And this reminds me of an old Western movie entitled: "For A Few Dollars More!"). And now I'm afraid the dirty hands of politics has again revisited his pen and it could be seen in his unusual hostile views strongly made in an attempt to becloud with doubt and ridicule the reputation of the personalities he lengthily discussed there in his column.

Footnote: I cannot understand why Bong W. tries to assail the personalities of Mayor JVR and his appointed TCC President Dr. Paulus Canete when Mayor JVR was even trying to hold his patience over the insult he received from the earlier graduation rites held for TCC where the City Mayor was not even invited to attend it, even for the sake of showing respect to the position, and much more, Mayor JVR's name did not also appear in their program. Under the prevailing circumstances, it was only natural and proper that Mayor JVR should uphold the honor and prerogative of his Office by holding that so-called second graduation rites for TCC students.
