                    [Summary] => President Arroyo has been hiring the "best and the brightest" to join her government, according to opposition Sen. Sergio "Serge" Osmeña III.


"She’s been recruiting the best friends of Jose Pidal and the brightest crooks," he told journalists over the weekend.


"That is the reason why these government corporations are losing billions in taxpayers’ money," he said.

                    [Summary] => Let us just be clear about one thing: That Bayanihan Fund initiated by Speaker Joe de Venecia will not fix the fiscal deficit problem. It is largely symbolic, a somewhat showbiz type attempt to rally people to do something to acknowledge the existence of the crisis. Even if they manage to collect the P5-billion goal, that would be a small drop in our bucket of fiscal despair.
