everybody likes controversy

i think it's very brave of GMA to actually admit it was her on the 'infamous tape'. I could forgive her for that. For me, addressing the controversy and apologizing to the country is highly admirable and commendable. At least she was honest enough to admit her mistakes & take responsibility for it, unlike other politicians who would just deny it to the high heavens even though it's pretty obvious already. I'm not an Arroyo supporter but I would rather have her as President of this country than any of those opposition contenders (if there's any at all) who don't know anything about the economy anyway or how to properly handle them. They don't get the point anyway. So what if she cheated? It's not something new. Duh! Let's face it, everybody cheats in the elections. Even Ramos cheated. The only difference is that GMA was caught. And she is actually doing her best to handle the country's problems. You gotta start somewhere, right? I mean, she only inherited the country's problems from past administrations. You cannot possibly solve ALL of them in just one term! Geez, people expect to see change at the snap of a finger! It's not like you blame her for the oil price increase! Hello! It's the global market! Everyone is affected! It's beyond the President's control. Changes will just manifest themselves, just give her the chance. So give GMA a break already. 'Nuff said.
