Sex with a congressman
After taking so long, Keana Reeves--only 23, she insists--finally made her appearance at the Senate, but only to be upstaged by Janine Roque, who made the headline-grabbing assertion that she had sex with a congressman from Luzon. As if this disclosure wasn't weighty enough for a TV patrol segment, Roque further added that the congressman wanted her to take drugs.

Many are incredulous, including Sen. Jinggoy Estrada. I, however, think, it would have been quite easy to ferret out the truth. The senators could have interrogated Roque with more, er, enthusiasm. Like, why exactly did the congressman wanted her totake drugs ? Was she reticient in the performance of her job ?

The Filipino viewers' appetite for salacious details hitherto remain unquenched. In the interests of democracy and all the good People Power stood for in this country, we must learn the truth, the whole truth and nothing but. Our good senators can't be relied upon to satiate our interest. And so we must turn to the most reliable of them all--Boy Abunda.
