Senators Antonio Trillanes and Alan Cayetano take us for fools if they think Filipinos will believe that their supposed investigations – first of the allegedly overpriced Makati City Hall Building II and then Vice President Jejomar Binay’s purported estate in Batangas – aren’t a crass, so-obvious demolition job against the forerunner for the 2016 presidential contest.

Maybe they did for a few days, but as the facts came in, the two were squirming to pretend they weren’t victims of what in the media business here is called “kuryente,” (news hoax) perpetrated by a scoundrel who has had lucrative contracts with the government (more on that in my next columns.)
