Hitting Binay is a beating I can’t take without a counterpunch

[OpEd Editor’s note: This is not a My Say column. It is a long “riposte” to last Saturday’s long article by Columnist Homobono Adaza “VP Jojo Binay: Can he ever be president?”]

I can take a beating. It will take some Freudian approach to understand this, but it’s been my way of life from as far back as my youth, and that’s been three scores and four years ago. I’ve got this capacity to absorb hurt, physical, emotional, what have you; pleasure from pain, the feeling is cathartic.
