What Gloria Thinks, Gloria gets

I'm on my second cup of barako coffee when I suddenly thought---what's really on the mind of Mrs. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo? Maybe she's afraid. Understandable, since her enemies are breathing down her neck almost every day. If you're being hit left and right, surely, you will do something, even things as sinister as martial law, just to protect yourself. Look how paranoid she and her officials have become---planning to deploy 9,000 cops and 2,000 soldiers---just to secure her SONA. They're so afraid that even Palace press secretary Cerge Remonde are just as confused as his bosses--telling people we're just on heightened alert when the AFP and the PNP say we're on red. Ano ba talaga, ha Cerge?

Cerge, drink tea, not coffee. You're beginning to sound like a frightened cat. Are you afraid that your boss would discover that you're on the other side already and would cross over anytime soon? You're an Ayala man. Of course you know where the Ayalas are now, right? How about your associates over at Aboitiz? And you know where exactly the Aboitizes are, right?

And some of those who know how she thinks are now on the other side, particularly former speaker Jose de Venecia Jr. If they really know Gloria, and knows how she thinks and processes information, then, why the hell is she still there in the palace? Why is Gloria still in Malacanang?

That shows that no one really knows what Gloria is thinking. Usually, what Gloria thinks, Gloria gets. And I bet my Winston lights that she'll go ahead with her evil plan just to protect herself.
