Sibling rivalry or family feud?

Whatever conflict is breaking up the Marcos siblings should not have been exposed before the INC crowd of more than 600,000 Filipinos and seen and heard by more than 100 million Filipinos via TV and YouTube. It was virtually washing dirty linen in public. Senator Ping Lacson called it very "un-Filipino". But in this country, blood is not thicker than water. Politics is thicker than blood.

Whatever happened between Imee and BBM is bound to happen to Pia Cayetano and Alan Peter. It can happen to Mark and Camille Villar and to Raffy and Erwin Tulfo, as well as to Sara and Polong and Baste. In the olden times in Philippine politics, here in Cebu, our old folks would tell us that Don Filemon and his younger brother, Don Vicente, did not always see eye to eye. Sonny Osmeña did not always agree with his brother Lito, much less with his first cousins, Tom and Serge.
