Philippine Presidential Candidate [mis]quotes a famous Batman line from the movie

It is no wonder that people use Batman quotes in every day life. Whether it be in the comicbooks, animated movies, or live-action movies, Batman has probably the best quotes people can relate to.

Some of us use these lines in our everyday life. We think its cool. But the moment it was used by a Presidential candidate during a debate... well, it looks like the fan base didn't appreciate it.

Mar Roxas, presidential candidate of LP and the standard bearer of "Tuwid na Daan" has been ridiculed for his elitist mentality and his inaction to many issues in the country. As the head of the Department of Interior and Local Government, he received heavy criticisms for the questions he couldn't answer as regards the monetary donations made for the Typhoon Yolanda survivors.

In the last presidential debate hosted by ABS-CBN, Mar Roxas was asked by another presidential candidate, Miriam Defensor-Santiago, "In all these years you've been shaped by the elitist background. Do you not think that the path has been too narrow to be able to be the President of the Philippines?"

And Mar replies...

And no, the fan base wasn't happy about it. From the poll asked in The Dark Knight Ph, it can be seen that most of the Batman fans felt outraged and disgusted with Mar's [mis]reference to Batman.

57.82% or 85 Batman fans voiced out that they were offended by the comment; 24.49% or 36 voted that his comment is insignificant; 15 fans or 10.2% of the voters wanted to bash Mar's face; 8 or 5.44% feels 'Meh'; 2 or 1.36% of the fans are still going to vote for Rodrigo Duterte; and 1 or 0.68% thought that it was amazing that Mar quoted Batman.

0.68%! WOW! I guess we can conclude that the fan base in the Philippines is appalled by Mar's [mis]reference to Batman. Well, even the twitter-verse were nauseated by his reference.

Well, come to think of it, is it really Batman who said those lines? The Batman reference is the paraphrased version of, "It is not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

But... hell, this line was rephrased by Batman. The original line came from...

Yes, Rachel Dawes. So yeah, sorry Mar Roxas, you quoted the wrong person. Ow and before we forget, some people think that it was Mewtwo from Pokemon who was being referred to by Roxas. 

But that's stretching it too much. Remember this quote from him posted in Facebook?

Well, yeah, Thomas Wayne never said that in any of the movies nor in the animated movies.

Even if the Batman fans did not appreciate Mar [mis]quoting Batman, Mar Roxas should keep on [mis]quoting the Dark Knight. After all, Mar is at the bottom of the presidential polls. At this rate, maybe he can say, "Bahala na si Batman" to SAVE his presidential aspirations.

But then again...
