Danton Remoto LadladFrom the Facebook of Raul Ibanez:

In its motion for reconsideration filed with the Comelec Wednesday, the group said that there are no evidence on record that establish their alleged immorality. “Just as the judicial entity may not suffer moral damages apart from its incorporator, director, officer or any one member, Ladlad may not be deemed to be immoral on account simply of the unsubstantiated belief that its members are engaged in any such immoral practice,” the motion read. Ferrer, meanwhile, is not keen on apologizing to Remoto and his group.

Why should I apologize? I’m not crazy, they should be the ones to apologize because they do not understand the resolution. ~ Nicodemo Ferrer ~”

Danton Remoto, head of a gay and lesbian party-list group, will run for senator in next year’s elections. “I will definitely run as senator in 2010. I’ve been invited by two parties to run for senator so I’m not running as an independent,” Remoto told reporters Wednesday at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) office in Manila.
