Malacañang said that President Benigno Simeon Aquino 3rd is too busy with governance to talk about politics. Thus, it refused to comment on VP Jojo Binay’s decision to junk the PDP-Laban and form his own party as vehicle for a presidential bid in 2016.

The President is so averse to politics that he ignores calls for the audit of his pork barrel when he was a congressman and a senator, and how he implemented the Disbursement Acceleration Program. Why, those issues are completely political and Malacañang will have nothing to do with them. After all, BS Aquino has already said he has been transparent in all his dealings so why should his hopeless critics badger him with demands for a complete accounting of his pork as legislator and as president?
