Election Time Again

Thursday, January 14, 2010

Campaign period hasn’t started yet but our community is already filled with posters from politicians with their Holiday greetings. Some are old timers who finished their three-term as councilors and are running again for re-election. Some of them are even too old already (that they really need hair loss treatment) but still would run for office. LOL.

Honestly, I don’t know who to elect for the local candidates. Some of them I don’t even know if they have done anything as a legislative officer. All I know is that I am definite who to vote for congressman.

I am giving a warning though to Ms. CD that I hope she will not make a big fuss about the coming election and I hope she will learn to respect the beliefs and opinions of other people. I remember from last election, she called my mom (who is a barangay chairman) and she said some really nasty things about my mom, like maybe my mom received a huge amount from our mayor that’s why my mom was supporting a different candidate for Congressman than the one that she is supporting. Since my mom is more educated than her, my mom just replied in a very polite tone by telling her that we are a poor family but we never trade our beliefs in exchange for money. My mom said that her kids received good education and have good job right now and we will not need anything from politicians just to survive.

Just like what my friend had told me, people like her do all that they can to stay with a politician because they are nothing and they have no where else to go if the politician that they are supporting loose. So I hope it will be a peaceful election this time and I hope I will not be hearing anything from the big bad wolf Ms. CD who is like a big fly (disgusting and has no breeding) sitting on top of a carabao.
