Why you don’t see your comments at once on my site
After writing about the Marcoses, I was shocked by the viciousness of some of the comments written on my blog.
For instance, this commentator who went by the name “Stuffy” wrote:
Raissa,
The Marcoses are back, will return to full power in 2016 and you can’t do squat save for ranting in this corner of the web. Spread open and suck it down!
Marcos pa rin!!!
Stuffingly yours,
Stuffy
Other comments were in the same vein but not as nasty.
I am not at all cowed by them. And since I intend to write much, much more on the Marcoses and other equally, if not more controversial topics, I am hereby adopting a new comments policy.
I am giving notice that I reserve the right to CHANGE or DELETE really nasty or vicious comments that do nothing to help shed light on the subject but merely attack my person or character without logical basis. Initially, i thought I would let such comments stand but I’ve decided I will not let myself be abused online.
If you want to do that you can set up your own blog. But you can’t do it here in mine.
I will also DELETE or CHANGE comments from those who keep changing their pseudonyms just to give the impression that different people are posting the same kinds of comments on my blog. And I will point out when that happens.
There are also trolls out there on the Internet whose only joy is to go into blogs, pick fights and bash without basis. My new comments policy for them is – I will identify you if you are a troll, and label you as such.
For everyone else who have taken the time out to read my blog, I welcome various comments. This is after all a blog in progress and an adventure which I hope to share with you all.
Pls. make your comments relevant
to the piece you are commenting on
Dear fellow citizens of the blogosphere,
I like your comments very much.
But I would appreciate it if you write about the topic on hand and not about anything else.
For instance, in my piece entitled Marcos in brief I received the following comment:
Hmmm…but maybe we should start looking at how the incumbent Philippine President is just wasting his time.
And then it gave a link to an article written by the commenter on her own blog.
I mean, I’m talking here about Marcos and she’s talking about something else. There is a big disconnect here. I did not upload it.
I appreciate comments that cross-fertilize ideas and are well thought out even if they contradict what I say.
In several other instances, I blocked this comment on my piece on Bongbong Marcos replies to me: The Presidency? “Thanks, but no thanks.
If you are a true Filipino and you care about your country and countrymen, watch this video.
And it gave a link. I’m sorry. Ever since my site was hacked, I am very leery of opening links, especially to videos because this is one method for spreading malicious code.
And since the comment doesn’t make much sense – I mean, if I don’t watch the video I’m not a true Filipino and I don’t care about my country and countrymen? C’mon.
I’m sorry I’m not buying it.
Finally, there are other comments that I am reserving for uploading later on because I intend to write a piece tackling it. One was on Hacienda Luisita. Another on deuterium.
Thanks,
Raissa 
Hi Raisa,
Kindly correct my mispelling of irritation in my previous post.
Thanks !
Hi Raisa !
Reading the columns of various writers in the major newspapers has become quite a frustrating experience. Even writers with formerly sterling reputations do not seem to want to write the truth, even worse try to influence people to their way of sponsored thinking
Then you have the supporting comments that have an obvious concerted effort behind them trying to project an image of divisiveness in the country . Fortunately this is not working and at least the money is going back to the people 
Now i will only read your column and maybe one othert to keep irritation from affecting the rest of the day.
Take care and more power !

I LOVE this site.Mmore power to you Raissa,Thumbs up ako sa yo,Ija.
Thumbs uo, Edward,
it’s a curse! kung hindi dahil sa pera hindi sila magkakaganoon,usapan dito sa Middle East na its all about money and allocation of Zones.
At bakit nga pala hindi nahihinto ang mga pekeng DVD at nasaan na ung mga nakumpiskang machine sa pagrerecord,is it destroyed or re-used?
I doubt it.
Check out this headline: “Corona gets Marcos’ support”, and Corona probably accepts it, aheee…what a goofy idiot, then turns around and calls Pnoy a dictator….Corona, you amaze me.
Dear Raissa,
May I asked what that idiot Corona was thinking when he called Pnoy a dictator? I thought dictators tried to stay in power for a bit more than six years. Pnoy said he was a one term president. In my humble opinion, we need to keep an eye on the judges that came out in support of Corona, they risk losing their little nest of corruption benefits as well.
Congratulations to PNoy, for addressing a obvious issue regarding Corona and the SC. He hit the nail right on the head and it is high time the SC serves the interest of the people and not the thugs who worship the almighty peso.
Lagman however has a hard time understanding and appreciating PNoy’s comments as he tried to point out in his feeble minded attempt to criticize Pnoy for respecting the decision of the People’s Supreme Court of China. Lagman, you idiot, note, the PEOPLE’s Supreme Court, not the Cronies Supreme Court for thugs, thieves and self serving idiots like you. Hope you choke to death on your next bucket of feed, what a pathetic, poor excuse of a politician you are and you are too stupid to realize people can almost see thru you. You seem to be the missing link between man and ape. Well not true, there are some things even apes will not do.
Hats off to the authourities that busted A South Korean Dog Fighting Syndicate in the Philippines for fighting pit bulls. Job well done. What about all the cock fighting, can someone please explain the difference? Roosters are animals too, and when you pitch one animal against the other, to do what they instinctually do, how can that be called entertainment? How barbaric and how shameful.
Ah, you’ll be fighting some very wealthy people there.
Cockfighting is to Filipinos as bullfighting is to Spaniards.
Aheee, it just does my heart good to know Dato aroYOYO and Ms Horn have approved of GMaroYOYO’s detention facility and that they have made arrangements for her comfortable stay while she is in jail. May I ask if the automatic adjusting bed, home furnishings, personal lap top ,are provided to all criminals in the prison system or can aroYOYO’s and Miss Horn’s comments, suggestions, and actions, on their intentions be misconstrued as preferential treatment?,
Wake up, smell the coffee aroYOYO and Ms Horn, this is not Mcdonalds, you can not have it your way. There is no “going large”, the proper term is “going to jail”. Let the RTC and hospital see to her needs. I am sure they are capable. GMaroYOYO probably wishes she would have budgeted more for the Veterans hospital now. Oh well, monkey see, monkey do, guess her cronies pocketed the crumbs she left behind for improvements.
Miss Horm, people see through you, sweetie get a life, find a real companion, accept your allowance has been ternimated, finished, no more. It is history, just like your little mentor, GMaroYOYO. Now it is time for a little less make up, less air time, less imaginiative stories, and perhaps more time for a few self improvement courses. Although there is not much there to work with regarding your character and potential to elevate yourself above a stool pigeon, still it is worth a try, miracles do happen. Wish you both the best and have a good day. Hope to see you on the right side of the track leading towards future prosperity for all filipinos and not just yourself.
Dear Raissa,
I absolutely adore you for your efforts at presenting topics for consideration only after you investigate them and provide factual support to your comments and opinions, prior to delivery.
I can not pass up commenting on the latest article whereby some NAM members in the States truly believe that President Noy is now like Marcos.
I am an American, married to a filipino, and find it so hard to believe that Filipinos in the states really feel that way towards PNoy. Perhaps they are too young or never experienced the atrocities commited by Marcos.
I am just curious why this article came out after Mike aroYOYO’s “fund raising/transfer” visit to the states. I wonder what that cost him to assemble a group of mis informed individuals to make such comments.
I think Mikey’s mommy must have dropped him on a hard floor shortly after birth. The timing of such comments are coincidental to say the least. The comments remind me of something Lagman would say, another pathetic individual who is only revealing/confirming his self serving interest to GMA and not his constituents.
At least Bautista Horn had the sense to close her mouth, but she too is a pathetic case, and letting her allowance from GMA take priority over her constiuency. They are all YoYos.
Dear David,
Even here, some PNoy supporters have said the same thing.
Let me give a think about it and I’ll write a piece on it.
Speaking of Mikey Arroyo, it’s worth your watching what he does over there in sunny California.
Dear Raissa,
I had a hunch that Mikey was up to no good on his fund raising/transfer trip to the states and he tried to get the NAM people all up in arms over his mommy. Now I am reading where he wined and dined 12 Papanga mayors that he flew over at the expense of Filipino’s stolen monies and other assets. My gosh, that was expensive and their strategy to pay off people to come out and support GMA gives new meaing to GMA’s parade to VMMC being rained upon.
These people will stop at nothing. How low will they stoop?
I bet Horn really had her nose out of joint over this failed strategy, no wonder she was getting impatient.. I can not help but wonder who she is going to turn to when her mentor is convicted and sentenced to a very long jail term. Poor Horn, her days in the limelight really are numbered. As far as for the mayors that rushed back only to mis calculate the parade and expose who and what they really are. How pathetic and insulting to the common sense of the common Filipino.
The cronies are too stupid to realize all they are doing is building more and more anger and resentment against the aroYOYOs, momentum is building and there is power in people. When will they learn?
Sorry to be so dense.
Where are you reading where he wined and dined them ?
Pls send me the link.
Thanks.
Dear Raissa,
I was using the term “wined and dined” as a figure of speach. I looked back in the link for Philippine New.net but did not see the article where he flew 12 mayors from Papanga to California for a 2 week spree. It went on to say they suddenly had to come back and drum up support by paying 500 pesos to the demonstrators and offer them transportation and meals to protest GMaroYOYO’s pick up and delivery to VMCC. I do not know how to access the archives or even if they are available but maybe you can access them. As I recall the article was referring to a” failed strategy” to throw up a smoke screen of false support for GMaroYOYO because a time was not given for GMaroYOYO’s pick up and delivery to VMMC. Seems the failed strategy contributed to Horns anxiety over a time to pick up aroYOYO
stuffy is just that..stuffed with foul air!!
Raissa about the killing of a son of revilla, then read some comments on Ellen, tunkol sa 1 million daw na allowancw then naging 16 M a month’. May nag comment na may corruption daw ang revilla sr. before, and during gloria.
Ako say mo dito? Salamat po.
Please expose the identity of that very coward “Stuffy”
It’s a curse! Kung hindi dahil sa pera hindi sila magkaka ganoon and they said it’s all about collection and allocation of zones,yan ang sabi at usap usapan dito sa Middle east.
At usap usapan pa,ay bakit di pa raw nahihinto ang mga Pirated CD,samantalang it was destroyed.Is it? or re-used for re production.
I doubt it.
