And Leni appeared before a crowd, brought out and gave 5 pandesal each.
She then brought out mineral water from Maynilad and Manila Water, and gave each person one cup to drink.
Behold, a miracle did not happen for there was no fish.
But the news media took her photos just the same and her visit to Taal became today’s headlines to tell the whole world that Leni made a miracle when there was none.
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) –The Internet was abuzz with photos of and comments about former Quezon City Congressman Bolet Banal wearing a face mask to conceal his identity while accompanying Vice President Leni Robredo when she distributed five pandesals and one bottled water each to those affected by the Taal Volcano eruption.
There are persistent rumours that Robredo and Banal are “an item.”
In a statement issued to the news media, the Office of the Vice President said that the photograph was photoshopped. “The man in question wasn’t Banal but American actor Tom Selleck who happened to be in Tagaytay during Robredo’s visit,” the statement said.
Selleck, now 74, is best known for the hit movie, “Three men and a Baby.” (Three men, not three daughters who are all girls.)
Thanks for the clarification, OVP!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Leni Robredo has proposed to the Supreme Court, sitting as the Presidential Electoral Tribunl (PET), a compromise that would finally resolve the Vice Presidential protest filed by former Senator Bongbong Marcos.
In an urgent petition filed with PET, Robredo said she was willing to split the Vice Presidency with Marcos. (Earlier, Marcos again asked the High Court to proceed with his motion to nullify votes in 3 Mindanao provinces where he alleges widespread cheating happened.)
Robredo proposed that she be declared Vice President for Luzon (except the Ilocos Region) and Marcos be declared Vice President for Mindanao. As far as the Visayas is concerned, she suggsted a toss coin between her and Marcos to determine who will be declared VP.
In speaking with The Adobo Chronicles, Robredo’s spokesperson said the VP’s proposal is similar to the set up at many government and private sector companies where they have separate Vice Presidents for Finance, Operations, Human Resources, etc.
The Marcos camp has not yet commented on Robredo’s proposal.
