    Sa kinakain? Ang monkeys kumakain ng saging, ang lizards kumakain ng insects.

    *crinkles nose*
    I meant more of...why call them creatures in gov as lizards when monkey can suffice?

    or baka insulto sa monkey and lizard...hmm...point din (naisip lang bigla)

    I don't really think people, or mediamen to be exact, call politicians monkeys although a couple of them do monkey around. They often call them crocs for their avarice. As per calling them (monitor) lizards, this arises when a politician or a bureaucrat refuses to vacate a position and holds on, sometimes literally, to his seat.
