It is time to take back our country!

This was sent to me...

WHAT

CAN BE
MORE
CALLOUS
THAN
THIS?

While Typhoon Frank devastated the country
and claimed more than 650 lives,
including the poor victims of the MV Princess of the Stars sea tragedy,
illegitimate President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her 74 junketeers
mindlessly spend billions of taxpayers' money
to visit Bush and watch Pacquiao fight in the US.


MONEY SPENT MINDLESSLY

USD 1.5 M JUNKET!
300-5000 – Willard Hotel rate
30 rooms booked
400-500 – Dinner per plate
207++ - Airline rate per person
800-1000 – Rental per car
30 cars rented
250 consulate officials mobilized



THE PERKS
P100,000 – each congressman gets monthly travel allowance
P1,620 – travel tax exemption when traveling with the President




WHO ARE THE 74 JUNKETEERS?
