KICKIN' THE HABIT

Kickin’ the habit

Priest-turned-politician Ed Panlilio announces intention to run for president. Says he is ready to leave priesthood.
Kickin’ the old HABIT.
oOo
Bishops are unhappy. They say Panlilio’s plan will “confuse the faithful” and is contrary to Canon Law.
Look who’s talking.
oOo
For years, Church leaders have been meddling in State affairs but they refuse to admit it. Whatever happened to the separation of Church and State?
Priest by vocation and politician by profession. Uh-oh. Double compensation.
oOo
Among Ed’s supporters say running the affairs of the State is better off undertaken by a man of faith.
I laugh at the thought of Internal Revenue and Customs collectors running around with donation boxes and pouches. And all incomes will be tithed. Taxes will be at a uniform rate of 10 percent. Goodbye, VAT! Har-har-har!
oOo
If he wins, Among Ed as commander-in-chief of the armed forces and being a man of peace, will replace guns with crosses, bombs with roses.
The AFP and PNP will both be headed by full-fledged CARDINALS!
oOo
They say the Lord calls on Among Ed to run for president.
Is it the DRUG or GAMBLING lord?
oOo
His first move would be to EXORCISE Malacanang and transfer the seat of government from the Palace to the nearby St. Jude chapel.
oOo
Not to be outdone, the El Shaddai and Jesus is Lord Movement will field Bros. Mike Velarde and Eddie Villanueva, respectively, against Panlilio.
And ALL three will vie to win the Iglesia Ni Cristo votes!
oOo
After the bombings in Indonesia, security officials proposed that 200 more CCTVs be installed around the metropolis.
To head the project is Dr. Hayden Kho, who recently earned his doctorate in voyeurism.
oOo
DILG Sec. Ronnie Puno denies he was planning to leave PGMA. From a two-week vacation in the US, he returned with a PUPPY named Magnus Portis.
At nadagdagan ang mga TUTA sa gobyerno. Whew!
oOo
Puno is a leading contender in the race for vice president. If he wins, alongside Fr. Ed Panlilio, the country will surely reap the bounties of God’s graces.
PUNO ka ng grasya!
