Incompetence Galore in Tongelec

Lintang Bedol a promoted tongelec official identified with Team Garci a known friend of Garcilliano (linked and was one of the voice heard in the infamous Garci tape) says elections were held in Maguindanao but the municipal certificates of canvass and statements of votes were “lost”. Okay….. granted it was indeed “lost” or “stolen” why in the name of the patron saint of cheaters will that happen in his watch in his very own office tells you that he surely does not deserve his promotion for his incompetence.

What’s up with government officials who can’t be relied on in securing their own turf? This is sounding so irritatingly familiar just like that military camp that “lost” the license plate of an impounded vehicle that was used in the abduction of JJ Burgos with the commander pointing the blame at their “radical” neighbors of stealing without a shred of evidence but malicious insinuation. Fire them all I dare say for incompetence and irresponsible rumor mongering that will pale in comparison with the fisherman’s wives telling a lie story society.

Weasel galore typifies the tongelec’s mindset when he can’t explain where the heck these election documents are conducting an equally inept investigation leading to nowhere land irresponsibly speculating that the "culprit’s" may have been those who staged a protest rally is pure hog wash. Without offering any lead or having a clue himself as to how the election documents got lost but readily pinpointing the blame on those that staged a rally as the culprit is definitely uncalled for and irresponsible. Now that really tells a lot on the kind of people that gets promoted in the land of cheats, “clueless” as they get, irresponsible as they come truly paves the way for a fraudulent conduct of the electoral exercise.

This "noteworthy" statement from Lintang Bedol from the Inquirer truly amazes me:

"Cheating has to be established by evidence. Unless that is proven, there is presumption of regularity," he said, noting that the claim of teachers who appeared on television saying there were no elections "cannot hold water."

Hmmmmn, as much as I want to agree with the presumption of regularity until it was proven otherwise he should hold his bladder errrr presumption of honest conduct when everyone knew (except him?) that Maguindanao has been the subject of anomalies in the past and continues to be so.

The “guardians” of the sanctity of the ballots riding high in their immaculate Carabao while professing to play fair with their presumption of regularity until proven negate themselves silly in an instance to avoid responsibility and accountability. It is their sworn duty to protect the sanctity of the ballots and along with it the electoral documents who without shame will point the blame of “unexplained” disappearance or “theft” on others without a shred of evidence but pure speculation coming from their wild imaginative creative mind.

Is it any wonder why the likes of witness Musa Dimasidsing gets silenced forever with this kind of attitude and treatment given by these jokers in their unflinching stance of “regularity” until proven otherwise? It appears that they intend to silence instead of protect witnesses just so they can fool themselves and the gullible public that everything is “normal” when that place is the bastion of feudal overlords putting to shame Iglesia ni Manalo’s bloc vote with their “command votes”. Why this Bedol even have the gall to lecture the press with his “knowledge” and “expertise” on command votes when they should know better that this practice should be declared illegal and undemocratic. The question here is what are these jokers doing to solve this moronic command votes or is this part of the “regularity” and “normalcy” in the land where cheating seems to be a virtue?

Lintang Bedol, the Comelec Official in the stellar role in the much vaunted Command Votes of the administration in Maguindanao, now claims that one of the most material and important set of documentary evidence needed to prove or disprove the regularity of the now notorious Command Votes from Maguindanao- the Certifcate of Canvass and the statement of votes were all missing! Is he joking? Is he trying to do a BORAT (not the appendage but the actor)!

Now I believed that public secret going around the world that Lintang Bedol was not promoted for his erudite understanding of the law and more certainly, not for his penchant for honesty and candor but for something else which any four legged creature may qualify, provided it could distinguish its odure from where it came from.

Any way, with these missing documents, it could be made easier for the Genuine Opposition to move for a special election in Maguindanao. BUT THAT IS ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE COIN.

The other side of the coin calls for the prosecution of those Comelec officials who directly took part in the manipulation of the election results in Maguindanao or by their silence, allowed these breach of our electoral laws. With missing originals, proving irregularity from these documents would be a little next to impossible. But then, the law admits exception to this rule. Secondary evidence will suffice. All that is needed however is not only something extralegal but also something monumental. It is the POLITICAL WILL of those newly elected members of the Senate to see the law through the end and not as a mere zurzuela.

Those whom we just elected as new members of the Senate must now show the people that we did not err in entrusting to them the fate of our nation, by moving heaven and earth, to GO INTO THE BOTTOM OF THESE SO CALLED COMMAND VOTES FROM MAGUINDANAO SHOWING THAT THE TU ALLEGEDLY won by a 12-0 fashion against GO, and to bring to justice those responsible in attempting to hijack the will of the people.

Failing in that, the unbridled killings and abductions would continue; the rule by law shall remain without rein, and corruption shall still be the official way of life in public governance in our country while many of our OFWs would still spend more Christmases so away from their loves ones.

WHY? Because their failure WOULD send a very clear message to all sundry that the newly elected national leaders of our people are still more interested on matters they have reasons to live for than those which every REAL leader ought to risk his life for.

How can he have the gall to look for evidence of cheating when evidently some form of fraud or cheating happened in his very office?
