Rep. Mikey Arroyo on GMA7's Unang Balita

i know this is not a laughing matter but seeing him trying hard to maintain his composure was really amusing. it's as if he doesn't know how to explain himself all throughout the interview. personally, he should've thought twice before agreeing to do this.

as usual...the Arroyo family has been constantly bombarded with various controversies. just after former Pres. Aquino's funeral, the news about the expensive dinner that PGMA had with her entourage during her trip in the US is the talk - not just by the country - but by the whole world (oh yes, to think that the news was published by The New York Times). since then, the Arroyo's riches were being questioned - it was said that ever since she become the president, their family riches grew for more that 100%.

the Filipinos are no longer buying their explanations and with her son's - sorry for the word - clumsy interview, acquiring the Filipinos understanding will be much harder and may be impossible. the people who are siding with her are not helping her at all, one instance: this is from Bianca Gonzalez's Twitter dated August 10, 2009:

i can't believe the spokesperson of malacanan said "alangan naman sa hotdog stand pakainin ang presidente!" WHAT!??! that's your statement?!

talking about stupidity! goodness!
