Now that we've shamed ourselves in front of the world by proving yet again that we, as a nation of 80 million people, cannot elect a single person worthy of the presidency, shouldn't we demand that this political soap opera extend to those rich monkeys in Congress as well? Aren't those idiots who call themselves "honorable" all Presidents-in-waiting anyway? I am sure that with the rate things are unfolding, the "bakya" in all of us wouldn't want this embarrassment to just abruptly end do we? Besides, what do the we talk about then? Good news about the economy? Our athletes winning gold medals? That makes us feel good and proud, we don't want any of that! We want what's awful and disgraceful and shameful about our country showcased for the rest of the world to see. That's our niche in the world, we're good at topping every darn survey of what's "worst" there is (don't we just love NAIA 1?).
And only a fool would believe otherwise.

I have such high hopes for this country, but you're right, being represented by such politicians is demoralizing. Our country is in deep trouble. :(
Well in elections, we deserve who we elect. And we've seen a whole parade of shady characters representing the hardworking people of our country for the longest time. Unfortunately, majority of the voting public can't seem to distinguish a good candidate from the bad and end up electing the latter. It's our curse as a people. Tama ka, we've got soooo much potential and we should be hoping for a bright future. But as long as this cycle of electing undeserving politicos continue, we're all headed to the shit pit.
