February 28, 1986
Letter to the Editor
The Daily Inquirer
Sir:

I decry the shameless hypocrisy of your columnist, Luis D. Beltran who fulminates against the Marcos cabinet members who have been "recycled" into the Aquino cabinet (Inquirer, Feb. 21).

There are thousands of us who know Mr. Beltran as one of the more notorious signatories to the Vanguard manifesto expressing confidence in Gen. Fabian Ver. Yet, we have been perfectly willing to accept the recycling of this "tuta" into the editorial columnist of this newspaper.

Mr. Beltran should be just as conciliatory toward Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile and Gen. Fidel V. Ramos. Neither of them, after all, signed a we-love-Fabian manifesto.
