mikey and the cookie jar

apparently mikey "sumi" arroyo is suddenly in the limelight. that's not exactly a bad thing if you're an up and coming movie star but its not exactly good if you're a politician trying to hide a suddenly growing portfolio of assets--php 50,000 to 156 million in 16 years according to raissa.

my, it certainly appears that being a congressman is like winning the lotto.

by now, and this is just my assumption, sumi has been given a lecture by his mommy and daddy. public speaking 101. by now, and this is just my assumption, sumi's lawyers are formulating or have already finished a damage control plan.

its a shame really. "...so sue me..." is not something one would expect from a grandson of diosdado and its not something anyone would expect especially from an "educated" elected official. it is something i would expect from a child caught with one hand inside the cookie jar.

so, sumi, with all this publicity you're getting it doesn't really matter if you get sued or not--although i imagine someone eventually would. people already saw how you reacted when caught in a tight spot and they think you are already guilty.
