Senator Tito Sotto's Privilege Speech versus Robert F. Kennedy's Speech

Not again!

Senator Tito Sotto is now facing another strike of his career as a politician.  He was currently now trending in all social media sites like Facebook and Twitter because of his Privilege speech today in Senate hall.

Sotto accused again of copying the speech from  Robert F. Kennedy’s speech during Day of Affirmation, June 6 1966.  The difference is that the speech of Kennedy was translated in Tagalog by Sotto's team.

The "speech" tackles about the contra en turno of Reproductive Health Bill.

I saw this site, Petitioning Senator Tito Sotto :  1 Million Signatures in 30 Days to OUST Tito Sotto from the Philippine Senate

According to Matt Quiros of Caloocan, Philippines, here are the reasons to OUST Tito Sotto

1. He is a popular public figure yet he uses his political and showbiz influence to spread misinformation about reproductive health. Ultimately, this is bad for our brothers and sisters who belong to lower-income families with 5 to 15 children and hence cannot afford proper sex education.

2. He is a serial plagiarist and shows no remorse about it. He steals other people's opinions when he doesn't have his own and shamelessly distorts them to advance his own stupid, selfish cause. He is a very bad example to the youth who might as well be allowed to cheat in their exams and he bends religious teachings to justify his acts.

3. He is a sexist. He blames the death of his unborn child on his wife's unconscious use of contraceptives when he could have prevented the accidental pregnancy by wearing a condom during their intercourse. Must the responsibility of avoiding accidental pregnancy always fall first on the shoulders of our women?

Let us show this traditional politician that he is not a victim of online bullying but that we are all willingly criticizing him for free.

Voice out your opinions in the “Reasons for Signing” section. We'd appreciate if you include at least your real name just to prove that our signees are not fake (we do not keep your personal information), especially if you are an influential Philippine celebrity. Be a catalyst of change! OUST SOTTO FROM THE SENATE!

Senator Tito Sotto is currently a Senator who fights for the RH Bills.  He also the Senate Majority Floor Leader.  He was a member of TVJ and hosted Eat Bulaga for almost 3 decades.
