The country is in a crisis and we need all the money we can get to help feed the poor and to make the lives of the Filipinos a little bit better. Now comes a report that GMA and her entouraged splurged on a dinner in New York’s prestigious French restaurant Le Cirque that amounts to $20,000 which is over P900,000.

With the convene of the con-ass (constituent assembly) on the lower house last week, there are rumors that this is for GMA’s running for presidency again by next year’s presidential election. The spokesman for the president last Sunday had made a statement that the president has no plans on running for any public office in 2010’s election despite the protest slamming her that con-ass is convened for her to be reelected.
