Nick,

Sadly enough, her rhetoric of a “Strong Republic” takes on a gory, obscene twist on the word “strong”.

Ten points for effort indeed.

That picture is a prime example of such. If I wanted to implicate Gloria based merely on photographs, I would zoom in on the golf car behind her and identify by face and name the ZTE officials allegedly accompanying them.

@Jon, stronger is the key word, it solidifies her argument that she has done nothing wrong, and that the opposition is the one to blame for a divided republic.

I just don’t think that the opposition has enough cohesiveness, to withstand Gloria’s strategists.. The strategy to keep Neri out of The Senate, and then invoke executive privilege, and then have her courts shoot down the Senate’s attempt for an unobstructed investigation??

And then she has the DOJ, the military..

She’s freakin’ brilliant.

Gloria:1,000,999 points
Opposition: 10 points (for effort)

There’s no one to blame but the “genuine opposition” who do nothing but throw mud at Gloria, instead of looking for genuine rocks that could bring her down and wound her fatally when hurled.

Does anyone realize that with each scandal brought up and survived, GMA only becomes stronger?
