Since efforts to condition the public mind for the impeachment of Ombudsman Merci Gutierrez is getting more and more vulgar, one crucial question must be categorically answered by anti-Merci congressmen.
WILL THEY ACCEPT, AND RESPECT, an acquittal by the Senate? Related to this,, what assurance can they give to the people that they will?
I’m raising this issue because the noise that anti-Merci congressmen has been making is getting to be DEAFENING.
They feed to media EVERYTHING they could possibly say on Merci’s impeachment, from the projected number of votes they would get to the SUPPOSED strength of its articles.
Without citing names, place and figures, some have even gone to the extent of claiming that pro-impeachment congressmen will vote according to the will of the people in their districts.
Even if the entire House of Representatives HAS YET TO VOTE on the articles of impeachment.
So in case the Senate acquits Merci, what happens next? Will pro-impeachment congressmen be civil and statesmen enough to GRACIOUSLY ACCEPT DEFEAT?
Will they allow the country to move on, NORMALLY? Can we be sure that they’ll GET BACK, and FOCUS, on their PRINCIPAL JOB, the crafting of proposed laws?
This is NOT IN DEFENSE of Merci, let that be for the record. As I’ve emphasized in an earlier blog, on with the impeachment. Stop the ‘pa-pogi’ in media now.
It’s just that it’s us, the people, who CONTINUE TO LOSE with all the media hype and grandstanding being done by all these pro-impeachment congressmen.
It’s OUR TAXES which pay for their SALARIES , pork barrel funds and EVERY PESO spent for EVERYTHING THEY DO as congressmen.But we get more of WHAT WE DON’T NEED than WHAT WE NEED from them.
Considering the hard times, WE DESERVE OUR MONEY’S WORTH.

Yes, I agree that world governments should prepare for catastrophic events. There is talk now among newscasters of amazement at all the changes that are occurring around the world. This points to the foretold galactic alignment that will happen on Dec. 21, 2012. We will enter the center of the elliptical plane of the Milky Way where the gravitational pull of a super massive black hole is at its strongest. Science has proven that every time the earth goes into this alignment every 68,000 years life extinction events take place. Since we entered into this alignment in 2008, there has been a dramatic increases in changing weather patterns, increased earth quakes around the world and volcanoes that have been extinct coming to life. 30
Thank for that info, Layton. I am interested in some aspects of science and you comment prompts
ReplyDeleteme to do some researches on what you term as a galactic alignment. I have been interested in science and its influences on religion since the time of Copernicus. Before I read you comment, I was thinking that the current weather changes were caused by global warming or the so-called greenhouse effects. Now, I have new researches to do.
