SALUNGGUHIT

Unintimidating

By Jasper Almirante/ Bulatlat

President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has been going around threatening to charge with sedition everyone calling for her ouster in the wake of the surfacing of CDs supposedly containing taped conversations between her and Commission on Elections (Comelec) official Virgilio Garcillano.  The coversations allegedly had to do with the fraud that reportedly marred the 2004 presidential election, in which she won by more than a million votes. But she has failed to intimidate the forces calling for her ouster, and even allies like Vice President Noli de Castro and Senate President Franklin Drilon have urged her to break her silence on the issue.

Salungguhit literally means to underline; figuratively, to underscore or highlight.
