Boo-Boo On National TV

Hey guys, nice to be back. Been inactive here for a couple of months since I was busy with work and other personal matters. Eventhough I am away from all of this (madness updating my blog and writing no nonsense stuff), I managed to keep myself updated with things happening around. I don't normally discuss political issues even though the Philippines had a handful recently, events like the Cory Aquino passing, the Arroyo trip to the US and their famous dinner at a posh NYC resto, etc. However there is one issue that caught my attention and I just can't help myself from commenting...The Mikey Arroyo booboo on national TV.

I just can't believe that he would go on a "suicide" mode. He should not have accepted an interview and subject himself from utter humiliation without any "facts and figures" to refute possible questions that might be asked during the encounter. It's like having a gun and going to war, but forgetting the ammunition. I wonder if any from his staff knows the BoyScout motto "LAGING HANDA"....

Mikey Arroyo was probaly thinking that if he goes to the show for an interview people might think that he is "innocent" since he is not afraid of facing all the allegations and questions that will be asked. Well if that is the case I think the plan clearly backfired on him. He should have known better...or should I say, his "advisers" should have known better...

Be that as it may, the damaged has already been done, now it's up to them how to diffuse the situation as it clearly went out of hand. How will they do it? well, let's just wait and see...

for those of you who weren't able to watch it, or those who have watched it but would like see it again (and again..) here is the link:
