Arroyo, Legarda share laugh over 2010 presidency

Arroyo was guest of honor. Legarda, an NDCC alumna, was to receive an award.

When Legarda, clad in a cream pantsuit, went onstage to receive her award, she said Arroyo bussed her and then asked: "Loren, did you hear the he or she?"

Legarda replied: "Yes, Madam President."

Arroyo, said Legarda, told her: "The he or she was meant for you."

The President was referring to a portion of her July 23 State of the Nation Address when, during her lengthy enumeration of the various infrastructure projects the administration is undertaking, she said whoever succeeded her in 2010, "he or she will have an easier time of it."

"I said, ‘No, when you said he or she, I looked at [Senator Manuel] Mar [Roxas II] and [Senator Richard] Dick Gordon," Legarda said.

But while playing coy about her presidential ambition, Legarda had earlier said she felt alluded to by the "she" in Arroyo’s reference to her possible successor.

"Did they think the President could have referred to any other woman contender?" Legarda said in an earlier report.

Parang sinabi na rin ni Loren na bading ang isa sa dalawang binaggit niya, either si Richard Gordon o si Mar Roxas. Hindi yata tama para sa isang babae na tawaging bading ang isang lalaki unless na gusto niyang masubukan ang pagkalalaki ng isa.

Naalala ko nung pumutok ang balita tungkol sa pagkakapatay ni Ex Gov Leviste sa katiwala niya eh ang unang ginawa ni Loren eh itinatwa niya agad ang asawa sa pagsasabing matagal na silang hiwalay.

Kayo na bahala kung ano ang iisipin niyo tungkol kay Loren.
