‘Lutong makaw‘

Wala talagang magagawang mabuti ang goberno ni Gloria kundi ang lokohin ang sambayanan para lamang sa kanyang pananatili sa pwesto.

GLORIA ARROYO … pinakamasama kang naging pangulo! Wala kang kahihiyan sa taong bayan.

Nasaan ka ba noong Martial Law? Ganyan talaga ang taong walang pagmamahal sa bayan bagkus ginamit lamang ang apelyidong di naman nakagawa ng kabutihan sa Pilipinas.

Sanay na sanay talaga ang GOBYERNONG ito sa LUTONG MAKAW!

wala na bang ABB? puede paki-una si tiglao. he’s beyond being a jerk. salot na siya sa lipunan natin.

That is their duty, to listen to the proceedings of the situation of the country. Walking out is not a good idea. Who do they think they are? Even the showbiz personalities who walk out gain no recognition. They are losers. They should be able to bear what the people expected them to do. They must do this effectively. Otherwise they are just wasting their time, so they better make use of our money in better things.

ardythe,

With your kind permission, may I be clarified if your comments on the recent “walk-out” being “not a good idea” applies the same to the “walk-out” of the prosecution panel during the Estrada impeachment trial ?

Your answer, please?

stop the impeachment and get back to work????

the impeachment IS the work!

masha, oo nga ano? pati ba nman leftist wala na ring silbi?

The pro-impeachment congresspersons are using THE LAW but the anti-impeachment is using THE NUMBERS.

Biglang naiba ang ihip ng hangin. NOY-PI, kailan ka magigising at kikilos?

enlightened_pinay, totoo kaya?

kahapon 14 signature to go na lang daw. but that’s before the walkout. after the walkout they admit they only have 49 and still 30 signature short.

Now they are saying 6 na lang kulang? Are they trying to build expectations?

I hope its real and not just propaganda.

[…] SANS members from the pro-impeachment side who yesterday walked out of what they call a "sham" impeachment proceeding, the House justice committee voted 46-0, with one abstention, to declare the original Lozano impeachment complaint as being sufficient in form. The committee then swiftly proceeded to deliberate on the matter of its sufficiency in substance in an unprecedented marathon hearing today. […]

Baaaaahhhh, we are so powerless.

sinasapian na ni satanas ang mga hayup nayan lalo na yang si villafuerte ang kapal ng mukha!!! pwe!!!! ang pikon daw ay palaging talo… e sino ba namang hinde mapipikon sa pinaggagawa nilang katarantaduhan dyan… mga bayarang matatandang mambubutas ng batas….bwiset talaga!!!!wala nanamng alam gawen yang mga yan kundi baluktutin ang batas.. karmahin sana kayo….mga walanghiya!!! mabuhay ang PRO impeachment group yung mga batang mambabatas nandito ang suporta namin sa inyo…wag nyong tularan ang mga gurang na tongressman na kasamahan nyo…

This refers to the previous scheme CODE NGO. To dear readers knows and remember about this issue, please enlighten me. As par us the plan holder of the so-called pacific plan is concern, here is some point that they need to know.

The project of the CODE-NGO is the pet project of some member of the infamous
Hyatt 10 particularly the alleged HONORABLE CORAZON SOLIMAN. aka. Dingky.

When PGMA installed in power after the EDSA 2, Mrs Soliman introduce the project to PGMA for her reason, that financial status of the government was in danger and broke.

In view of this, Mrs Soliman consistently reminding PGMA the scheme of Code-NGO because of the facts that the beneficial of this project is the non-governmental organization whom she’s belongs and called CIVIL SOCIETY GROUP

Because of the enthusiasm of some member of Hyatt 10 whom Dingky Soliman is the leader, PGMA obliged and persuade by the group to signed sovereignty undertaking in the amount of 10 Billion pesos which said amount will be put up by some banking institution in form sale of bond.

One of Dingky Soliman buddies divulge that, part of the 10 BILLION PESOS BOND sell by Dingky Soliman to YUCHENGCO GROUP OF COMPANIES who happen the majority owner of the PACIFIC PLAN and the RCBC.

Because of the pressure made by Mrs Soliman as of people of malacanang, Yuchengo Group of Companies obtain a Bond of Code NGO to Mrs Soliman but the cash they used for the transaction are the money of the plan holder of the Pacific Plan

In this transaction, Ms Soliman earned several hundred millions of pesos and pocketed in her favor

Apart from this, Spouses Soliman manage to create a dubious corporation that they are the author, benefactor in the lending scheme of the project CODE NGO.

The question now is? Who is Dingky Soliman before she came into power as DSWD Secretary, what is her life style and financial status when she is not in the power, what kind of dwelling house does she have and what is the financial status of her good husband.

As par us the citizen is concern, Spouses Soliman is now own a mansion and different properties in TAGAYTAY costing to several millions of pesos. And their life style now is like a millionaire and like the elite member of society. How many dubious corporations does she create to benefit by the project CODE NGO.

To the PCIJ, kindly lend your capability to look into this matter.

GRAND JURY AND TRIAL JURY
They are more powerful than a million street demonstrators
By: Marlowe Camello, Homeland, California, Email: MarloweCamello@aol.com

We have embraced a U.S. type democracy. What we did not know is that this ideology does not work unless the common people or private citizens which compose the sovereign majority of our democratic society have direct participation in its justice system. That people’s participation in justice is none other than the U.S. Jury System in the American Bill of Rights which consists of two parts, the Grand Jury and Trial Jury to check government abuse against the people specially the ordinary and poor citizens. We copied the American Bill of Rights but we omitted its Jury Systems. We should not wonder, therefore, why Philippine democracy is garbage and it is good only to protect the powerful and rich corrupt government politicians.

If the pro-impeachment movers want to successfully remove PGMA with breeze from office legally and conveniently at the earliest time whom they perceive as the most corrupt president the Philippines has ever had, they should first enact a jury system. With such a system, the ordinary citizens will be able to independently SECRETLY investigate peacefully and with dignity in their halls of justice without political interference to discover the truth of the alleged misconduct of the president and her alleged front liars. If they are hoping for PGMA to resign like Richard Nixon did, they must be hallucinating. They should first realize that the greatest factor that forced Mr. Nixon to resign was the prior indictment by Grand Juries of his handy men and front liars who, after their conviction by Trial Juries, were forced to reveal the truth of Mr. Nixon’s participation in the Watergate scandal. Currently, PGMA, et al, are just laughing at the attempts to oust her because she has the exclusive control over Philippine justice and for that matter including the impeachment process because of the help of her turncoat legislators. She can prevent investigation of her front liars (aka: “spin doctors”) because she has control over justice.

The decision of the people in justice expressed through a jury is more powerful than the decision of any high official of the government because such a decision whether to indict (as in the case of a Grand Jury) or to convict (in the case of a Trial Jury) is the expression of the people in their sovereign capacity. The people’s sovereignty is supreme over and above any of the highest official in the three branches of government or of any commissioner for that matter. The jury system is what makes government, the government of the people and by the people – not only the government for the people.

Without the Jury System, the Philippine Constitution is just like a toilet paper and often ignored by abusive high officials because the people have no means to counter-check abuses and violations of the constitution by such officials. Powerful public officials could act on their whims because they are the exclusive controllers of justice in conspiracy with justice officials whom they appoint or recommend for appointment in office. Article II, Section 1, of the Philippine Constitution which says “Sovereignty resides in the people and all government authority emanates from them” is meaningless. It says the people are sovereign but they cannot exercise their sovereignty. Changing the constitution without the jury system will still be meaningless. U.S. President Thomas Jefferson once said: “The jury is the only anchor yet imagined by man by which a government can be held to the principle of its constitution.” This means that there is really no substitute for the jury system to correct the abuses of public officials in the government.

This writer has drafted a proposed Jury Systems Law for the Philippines that establishes both the Grand Jury and Trial Jury Systems. It is published in the following Internet web site:

http://anticorruption.homestead.com/JuryLaw1.html

The proposed systems are patterned after the U.S. Jury systems. In the U.S., Grand Juries have the power to secretly investigate government anomalies and abuses of any public official including a U.S. President and they also have the power to indict or accuse in court a serious crime offender without the need of approval by government prosecutors. To the contrary, it is the government and government prosecutors that are required by the Grand Jury law to seek first a Grand Jury indictment to approve their accusation before filing in court. Interference in a grand jury investigation as well as lying before such body is a felony by itself. The Grand Jury is not well known to most people including in the United States because this group of citizens operate by secret investigation. The only time a citizen learns that he is chosen as a grand juror is when he is already sworn and given instruction by a judge.

The Trial Jury is different from the Grand Jury. Trial Juries are the popular ones which we hear or watch on TV like the juries in the Michael Jackson and O.J. Simpson jury trials.

Memberships in both Grand Jury and Trial Jury are chosen by lottery from the names of registered voters which is conducted by a judge. Absolutely, no other public official or government politician is allowed to take part in the choice of a juror. Jurors perform their jobs under the official supervision by judges but the judges have no power to instruct juries which way juries decide to indict (in the case of Grand Jury investigation) or to convict (in the case of jury trials). Usually in the U.S., lawyers are not allowed to sit as jurors because of their instinctive tendency to disregard jury instructions that often lead to jury mistrial.

A Grand Jury is composed of 23 members and its main job is to SECRETLY investigate a crime and to decide to file an indictment or accusation in court against the suspected offender of the crime. Once it has filed the indictment in court, the job of the Grand Jury is done for that particular case. To learn more about the grand jury, please browse: http://anticorruption.homestead.com/GJInst.html

A Trial Jury on the other hand is composed of 12 members and it is presided by a judge. Its job is to try the accused suspected offender which was indicted by the Grand Jury. Trial jurors are strictly supervised by the presiding judge. For more information about the trial jury please browse: http://anticorruption.homestead.com/JurInstSmpl.html

Without juries, a charter change or PGMA ouster or resignation will not in anyway abate, and it may even worsen, government corruption. The jury system is a pain in the neck for public officials. Even in the U.S. many high officials do not like the jury system just as Philippine powerful officials may not favor in adopting it. We cannot hope, therefore, that Philippine Congress and the President will ever think of enacting such a law.

It is therefore left to the initiative by the leaders in the private sector to enact the jury system by direct vote of the people in accordance with Republic Act 6735, the law that empowers private citizens to pass laws without going through Congress and the President. The steps to enact the Jury Systems Law are published in the Internet at: http://anticorruption.homestead.com/Steps.html

Mr. Vic Del Fierro, Jr. (email: vicdelfire@yahoo.com ), President of the Coalition for Consumers Protection & Welfare, Inc., is sponsoring the enactment of the Jury law by private initiative. He needs co-sponsors in his Petition to the COMELEC in asking for the setting of the election date for direct approval of the people. Financial help is needed in launching this crusade but it is not necessary in co-signing the petition with him. The form of the petition is published in the Internet at: http://anticorruption.homestead.com/Compressedf.html

You are invited to contact Mr. Del Fierro to co-sign his petition to show your support. Please encourage others to do so. Also he would definitely welcome any suggestion on how the needed funds can be raised to underwrite the expenses in putting the measure for the vote of the people. Large business establishments including powerful ecclesiastical organizations such as the CBCP, the Iglesia Ni Cristo, El Shadie, and Anti-Graft organizations, NGO’s, Human Rights Defenders, etc., are invited and encouraged to contribute their efforts to this crusade since they would surely benefit in the stability of Philippine society as the direct beneficial fruit of the jury systems.
