Leni Robredo Responds: I have Not Changed Color!

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Vice President and presidential aspirant Leni Robredo has responded to criticism that she has again changed color. The VP has been accused of abandoning yellow for pink to distance herself from the loser Aquinos and their cronies.

During a televised presidential forum sponsored by the waning Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), Robredo was seen wearing a peach-colored dress, prompting netizens to speculate that she was again trying to reinvent herself and her politics.

Robredo spokesperson Barry Gutierrez, in a message to The Adobo Chronicles, categorically denied all speculation.

“The dress worn by the Vice President was originally pink. Unfortunately, her kasambahay (domestic help) accidentally washed the dress using bleach that wasn’t color safe,” he said.

“We were running late for the televised forum so Robredo didn’t have time to change to another (pink) wardrobe,” Gutierrez added.

Sharon Cuneta’s 817-Word Social Media Rant

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – “Megastar” and wife of presidential candidate Senator Kiko Pangilinan Sharon Cuneta took to social media to justify her earlier post criticizing presidential aspirant Salvador Panelo for singing what is not even ”her song” at a campaign event.

The song was ”Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas.” composed by the late Willy Cruz and first recorded by Jun Polistico. Sharon’s version was practically a cover of the original recording.

Cuneta acknowledged that she didn’t know Panelo sang the song as a tribute to his late son who suffered from Down Syndrome.

But Cuneta’s rant went on and on, totaling 813 words, more than the average word count of most essays, press releases and opinion pieces (OpEds).

In the final analysis, Cuneta could have posted a one sentence rant: ”I made a mistake.”
