The headline (‘Gains are now being felt’. Aquino upbeat on economic takeoff in 2011) is a report mostly about President Aquino telling everyone that he is good possibly even heaven sent and that if we believe him we will be more happy, more hopeful, possibly feel better even when we are like frogs swimming in a pot of water slowly getting to boiling point. In fact, the weather bureau became more accurate just because Aquino became President. BTW, the paper forgot to mention that since President Aquino took over, the growth registered from the last three quarters of the previous administration slowed down by some sort of miracle. Aquino +1.
