the height of plasticity

this picture could have been passed off as just any ordinary photo-op of the subjects...if one doesn't know the story behind the personalities in the pic.

if not for the pomp in the elaborate gowns and the revered hall they are in, this could have been a tag-team wrestling match.



back in 2004, the fiery miriam defensor-santiago twitted now "presidentiable" sen. loren legarda for being a political butterfly when she moved over to the opposition to run alongside the FPJ under the UNO ticket.

miriam used this phrase in mocking legarda's move: "politicians change political allegiance as much as they change hairdos, and they change parties as much as they change their underwear". - ow!

jamby madrigal on the other hand, made a public scolding out of pia cayetano in one senate deliberation.

she grouched on young senator cayetano because of her absences during which madrigal was supposed to have delivered her remarks.

she described cayetano as a "spoiled brat"


now, here they are as if nothing happened. as if nobody recalls the words they said against the ones beside them.

one can imagine how unwilling cayetano is to be taken a photo besides jamby.
yeah, but she still managed to post a smile.

but legarda on the other hand, stands as if calling out, "let's get it on!"


whoohoo!
