As I was going through the articles of impeachment against Philippine Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona, I began to realise how so much of the complaint against the Chief Justice is based on circumstantial assertions. I thought, hey, if this drivel of an impeachment complaint passed Congress, I’ll bet I can draft one against President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III that will hold far more water and (in principle, at least) easily make the grade.
So herewith are the five articles of my stab at such an impeachment complaint against the President of the Philippines:

ARTICLE I: Underhanded herding of 188 members the House of Representatives into an expedited lodging of an impeachment complaint against Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona.
The expedited initiative involved, among other things, a potential bullying of representatives into signing the complaint without reading it and the gathering of the required numbers as to bypass committee hearings or floor debates. According to former Senate Majority Leader Francisco S. Tatad…
“In making the congressmen sign an unread document in exchange for certain tangible gifts, P-Noy unduly risked his political reputation for being previously incorrupt. Critics see him now as the first corruptor of Congress.
“In their view, he has made himself impeachable in the very act of impeaching the Chief Justice. He, rather than Corona, should be the one impeached for culpable violation of the Constitution, bribery, corruption, betrayal of public trust and other high crimes.”
Some representatives of the House had earlier testified to a “furious” President Aquino demanding that the lodging of the impeachment complaint be fast-tracked and that the compliance of the 188 signatories was largely an exercise “to appease an angry President”.
ARTICLE II: Reckless neglect of the interests of public health and safety resulting in preventable wholesale loss of life arising from excessive focus of public attention and state resources on efforts to deprive former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo of Constitutionally-guranteed personal liberties.
By the admission of Malacañang spokesman Edwin Lacierda himself, in a news report…
[…] the Aquino administration did not heed or give enough attention to the report of the Climate Change Congress of the Philippines, which had warned that Cagayan de Oro, the city that, along with Iligan, was most devastated by Sendong, could suffer what Metro Manila’s Marikina went through during 2009’s storm “Ondoy.”
The distraction was reportedly attributed to a preoccupation with “clearing the landmines” laid by the previous administration of former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
ARTICLE III: Downgrading of the Philippines’ already inadequate state of disaster preparedness arising from the President’s veto of budget normally allocated to the disaster response or “Calamity” fund.
The recent devastation wrought by Typhoon Sendong is widely viewed to have been exacerbated by a lack of resources at the disposal of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC). Such a decision involving the deprivation of an agency critical to public safety of much-needed funds can be considered to be a criminal offense in light of Section 19, “Prohibited Acts” of R.A. 10121, “Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010”, which lists “(a) Dereliction of duties which leads to destruction, loss of lives, critical damage of facilities and misuse of funds” punishable by fining, imprisonment, and “perpetual disqualification from public office if the offender is a public officer” among others.
ARTICLE IV: Potential conflict of interest arising from familial affiliation with Jose “Peping” Cojuangco Jr who is a major shareholder and senior executive in Hacienda Luisita Inc which holds the Hacienda Luisita plantation in Tarlac Province that is currently the subject of a Supreme Court ruling to subject it to the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP).
Hacienda Luisita Inc (HLI) is reportedly insolvent and is approaching a 2014 deadline for subjection to the CARP. The justices of the Philippine Supreme Court had in early December 2011 unanimously voted to lift a temporary restraining order (TRO) on the CARP being applied to HLI that had been in effect since 2005. The Supreme Court Justice Renato Corona is currently the defendant in the impeachment case described in ARTICLE I of this complaint.
This conflict of interest may already be becoming evident, depending on the veracity of reports that Cojuangco feudal clan elders exert inappropriate influence over the President and members of the House of Representatives…
The Tribune source said that the plot to oust Corona was hatched at the Bahay Matanda, the ancestral house of the Cojuangcos after elderly members of the Cojuangco clan reportedy [sic] berated President Aquino for attacking members of the High Court which they believe was the reason the SC justices revoked the stock distribution option and ordered the distribution of the [Hacienda Luisita] sugar estate to its tenants.
“From the time of (President Ramon) Magsasay, the hacienda land was never lost. When Martial Law came, we still did not lose our land. GMA (Gloria Arroyo) and Cory had a fight during GMA’s presidency, we Cojuangcos still did not lose our land. Now that that you (Noynoy) are president, we lose the hacienda!”, the Tribune source quoted an elderly Cojuangco as he berated Aquino in the vernacular.
“You are the reason for our loss of the hacienda, because even the Supreme Court you had to fight with!,” the elderly Cojuangco was further quoted as telling the President.
ARTICLE V: Conduct inconsistent with that of a statesman and unbecoming of a President of the Republic.
There are many instances where the President exhibited a shortfall in his skill and acumen as a statesman and a stunted control over emotions that befit a leader of the Filipino people over the last year and a half of his administration. The character of his rule is made most acutely evident in a speech before the First National Criminal Justice Summit held at Centennial Hall, Manila Hotel on Monday 5th December 2011 delivered by the President in which he mounted an uncalled-for verbal attack on the Chief Justice who was sitting just a few metres away. Such behaviour is widely seen to be unprofessional under any circumstances (not just within the context of that of a high-ranking government official) and could even be considered to be an insult to the entire legal profession.
* * *
The above easily outclasses the impeachment complaint against the Chief Justice. Never before has the Philippines been ruled by a President more incompetent and unfit, and the above articles encapsulate only a tiny subset of the vast landscape of this incompetence and ill fittedness.
Having said all that (and after having framed the above complaint), I still believe Noynoy should complete the rest of his term. Filipinos deserve the next four and a half years of his rule. President Noynoy Aquino represents the answer to Filipinos’ prayers. The President, after all, believes that God is “on his side” (at least the God of Roman Catholic Filipinos).

Then by principle, I should sign this first then read it later
Ahehe. ako din. Pirmahan ko muna. Mamaya/bukas/makalawa ko na lang babasahin.
Wlang mangyayari dyan ksi alam ng mga kongresista ang tama. Tulungan mo nalang ang gobyerno by telling the truth about Coronas utang na loob kay Gloria.
what’s the matter vincenzo?
scared that people will get bright ideas like this?
iiyak na yan o.
iiyak na yan…
Hnd mwawala ang tiwala ng taumbayan kay Tito Noy dhil gngwa nya ang trabaho nya ng mlinis at maayos. Araw araw nga dumarami ang supporters nya ksi npapansin na nila na patungong daan matuwid tlga ang landas ng bansa.
vincenzo, pakitanong mo sa mga residente ng cagayan de oro at iligan kung dumami sa kanila ang sumusuporta sa tito noy mo ha. mukha ngang dumadami*.
*ang naniniwalang dapat ma-impeach si pnoy
D mo talaga matanggap na marami ang nawawalan na ng pasyensya sa tito noy mo. Tanungin mo pa sa CDO at iligan. Makikita mo na halos lahat sila galit sa tito noy mo dahil sa kababayaan niya!
who told you so…wala nga tiwala tao sa kanya dahil he is preparing the country to communist rule…he’s now trying to maintain his tight grip to his presidential seat as he is scared , the tide of chance is turning over…and when it comes siya naman ang igigisa ng taong bayan sa mga kawlanghiyaan na ginagawa niya simula sa kaniyang kanununuan at sa kasalukuyan lahi ni Penoy…the whole aquino/cojuanco clan are all fraud…mga salot ng bayan….
sa amin sa pampanga at tarlac walang naniniwala kay Pnoy. Alam kc namin kung ano sya.More icing will not make ur rotten cake yummy.
tama, dadami ang followers ni Noynoy dahil ginampanan niya ang tungkulin sa alisin ang mga tiwaling naglilingkod sa bayan,iniisip lang ang sariling kapakanan, Dapat isipin nila ang kapakanan ng taumbayan na maraming naghihirap sana i-share nalang ni Chief Justice Corona ang Dollars deposite nya sa mga mahihirap na taumbayan para maski papaano may kaunting Dangal pa siya.Tutal ang kayamanan ay hindi niya madadala sa langit.Dito sa lupa makalusot siya pero sa langit ang Diyos na ang uusig at Maghusga sa mga taong sinungaling ang lahat ng ito ay may katapusan. kaya tama na,baka uusigin tayo ng consinsiya at may panahon pa para magbago..GOD KNOWS EVERYTHING…AASENSO ANG BANSA NATIN KUNG TAYO’Y MAGBIGAYAN AT MAGMAMAHALAN. SUPORTAHAN NATIN ANG MGA SENATOR JUDGES NA ILABAS ANG KATOTOHANAN.
@virginia evardo Ballentos:
I’m very disappointed. Even God is also disappointed on what you’re doing.
It’s OK for Corona to his dollar accounts if he wants to. But the question is: will you break the LAW just to give justice? Hindi pwedeng maitama ng isang mali ang isa pang mali so you’re logic is very flawed.
Christian ako. Pero hindi ako nagpapauto sa mga taong hindi marunong mag-isip, lalung-lalo na ang mga taong may alam sa batas. Para saan pa ang utak? Oh yeah, you love to oppress the poor farmers of Hacienda Luisita because Corona gave justice to those guys.
Aasenso ang bansa natin? We need guys like Gibo and Gordon who have CONCRETE VISION. Love and sharing can never lead to progress. Please stop the rhetorics and get our act together. You’re emo doesn’t work on us all. 😛
…how sure are you that his followers are increasing?
…surveys?
…hahaha.
…silly!
Your tito noy will soon face impeachment
The END is near for your tito noy’s administration
May mangyayari dyan kasi malapit na magsawa ang tao sa kasakiman ng tito noy mo!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@Vincenzo…How about the Hacienda Luisita? The Aquinos and the Cojuangcos, are the biggest Swindlers of the century…
@Nutzi Vincenzo
Come on Vincenzo prove that your beloved dictator Mr. Aquino has God on his side. Let him lead all the impeachment signing congressmen towards the outer breakwater. Just all of you walk on water to the port side of the U.S. Embassy grounds. Pleeease! LoL.
Vincenzo B. Arellano – Isa jud ka sa pinakadakong AMAW ug BOANG2x na TAE sa Pilipinas.. Hala kan.a na imung YELLOW PRAYD.
Daghan nawadlan ug kinabuhi diri sa Iligan sa inyong kaboang.
ask the cebuanos 🙂 the president that did nothing in cebu… expect us to like him?
its a NO! NO!
a simple request from our mayor to fix our market.. the answer of your tito noy is NO..
impeach that crap president….
mga bisaya magasawa na lang kayo ng amerkano para umasenso kayo datina ninyong kawain ito ..
mga visaya kung magaasawa koyo ng amerkanong matanda puwede bang huwag ninyong kakaliwain dahil kaming mga pilipino dito sa amerika ay binibigyan ninyo ng kahihiyan gaya ng ginawa nung bisayang asawa ng kasama ko sa trabaho dalawng katarbaho ko ang niloko ninyo ..ang kapal ng mukha ninyo ang tatapang ng mga sikmura ninyo ..tuwi nakikita namin nalalakad kayo na kasama ang matandang asawa ninyo nahihiya kami na makita kayo ng ibang lahi dahil pati kami ay nadadaman.
…i agree with you @sNiTcH.
…i did not notice any project given to the cebuanos by the president.
Ooooh! Wanna follow your Tito Noy to hell? So be it!
this is good. and yes, i bet it holds more than what this current president has.
(wide grin)
Yan ang hnd mangyayari. Iilan lang kayong fans si Gloria eh.
o rly?
bakit apektado ka?
siguro dahil alam mong kahit kaming mga hindi pro-gloria eh naniniwalang dapat ma-impeach si pnoy, ‘no?
ano, iiyak ka na?
sige pa, maglabas pa kayo ng survey. show us how desperate you yellows are.
speaking of survey,
@benign0: perhaps there is a way to have sws employees and pulseasia employees (separately) demonstrate to the filipino people that their “survey results” are not fabricated or cherry-picked.
there must be some law that is violated if they are found to be releasing “results” selectively, omitting disfavorable results, or falsifying survey responses and tallies. sws and pulseasia employees should be held FULLY ACCOUNTABLE for what they tell people. if they only tell people real survey results from properly done surveys without omitting unfavorable details or tweaking the numbers, then they should have nothing to worry about.
imagine the implications if fabrication of survey results were actually found to have happened. noynoy having won the presidency partly because mama died and partly because of bogus “surveys” – maybe the senate would like to call these pollsters to testify, hmmm?
maybe after all this it’s really binay who will end up as legit president. (but then again, erap won’t just take this sitting down, and will demand that he be seated president. oh, such drama!) in any case, at least the farmers will get the hacienda luisita property that they’ve been promised decades ago.
@vincenzo: what will your desperate comm group do now?
These survey firms are for-profit private enterprises and I’m not too sure if the “products” they churn out are regulated by the government. But in most countries, firms like these are built upon trust earned from a consistent demonstration of rigour in their methodology and independence in their analysis. Perhaps we being a society with a stunted concept of *trust* allow firms like these to persist despite their tarnished reputations. Hey, I may as well be describing the government there… 😀
Just like what they did during the past election. Fabricating surveys in order to make the public believe that majority likes that President of a retard while the media is continuously illuminating that self-righteous swindlers using their programs for promotional tactics including that sister of his who have nothing else to do but babble about her life and how great their family is. Survey firms are paid to create surveys that would be pleasing to those who pay them. Useless set of datas.
…surveys are unreliable.
…they can be manufactured just like the evidences during the trial of cj corona.
kawawa naman kayong mga tuta ni arroyo natatagap ninyo na magnanakaw si arroyo pero hindi niyo mabigyan ng pagkakataon na mapatunmayan ni pinoy na linisin ang kurap ng mga tao sa gobyerno..siguro natatakot kayong masabit sa kaso ni arroyo
Still uttering the same nonsense are we vincenzoidiot??
Lumang tugtugin na iyan gunggong
You’re sad tricks won’t work here buddy.
^^^^
I was referring to the yellow zombies who keep on trolling in this site.
@Nutzi Vincenzo
Ascend to the sky with the signatory congressmen led by the dictator Aquino! Come on! You said God is on his side. Perform a miracle in his Name st. BadNoy! LoL.
What’s the matter vincensus ignoramus? Being very desperate now that you can’t think of any attack to us but “we’re pro-arroyos”? You really need to be tied up with a straight jacket and send you to a mental hospital.
I beg to differ, most of the visitors here are not Gloria fans nor anti-PNoy. We are just voicing what we think is needed for the better of our economy.
not just our economy but our country.
indeed!
IMPEACH HIM!!!
The Hacienda Luisita issue will be like an Albatross, hanging around the neck of Noynoy Aquino. This was what I wrote a few years ago, in a comment Blog…What you treasure most; if you cling to it, will be your downfall. Whether: Wealth, Power, Lust for Power, Sexual Lust, etc…
Divine Source knows where to hit you, in the most painful way. We have seen power come and go…even wealth…Nothing is permanent in this world…
Noynoy Aquino has made a lot of mistakes already…he is the one who deserved to be impeached…the Aquino and the Cojuangco families want to turn the Philippines into their own Hacienda Luisita…We as their Serfs/Tenants – OFW Slaves/Drug Mules…this is how Greedy and Self Serving these people are…The buying of Congress, is like the burning of the German Parliament by the Nazis of Adolf Hitler…
Benigno you’re such is such a genius, love it. 🙂
Oopss….typo error, cancel the “is such”. :
Thanks! 🙂
We need another viral video from Pinoy Monkey Pride!
yeah!
ang taba na siguro ni Vicenzo. you guys keep on feeding the yellow troll. death by jaundice and obesity.
this vincenzo troll is way too easy to counter troll
We constantly counter troll him every time he shows his ugly face here and starts spreading yellow crap.
mas matibay to kaysa sa tsamba tsambang impeachment vs cj corona. i’ll support this
Amen to that. And I second Terra’s remark about the author of this post being a genius. A few more of this kind of intelligent posts and I think this retard president will fall. 🙂
“In our age there is no such thing as ‘keeping out
of politics.’ All issues are political issues, and
politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly,
hatred and schizophrenia”
George Orwell
I think I should be a congressman; I’ve read all these articles of impeachment LOL. And I want to sign. Now na!
where to sign? dali dali! show me the papers! 🙂
We forgot to add one more article. His giving all the advantages to his MILF and left of center socialist friends. This included the cash donations too.
I saw a pattern. BadNoy declared a Christmas ceasefire. The CPP-NPA took advantage by murdering people and doing destruction. He has left of center associates with him. Is he being assisted in pacifying the peasants of HLI?
Why was 300 hectares of sugarcane burned in HLI? Is there a split between BadNoy leftist associates and mainstream left?
Heil Der Nutzi Fuhrer! The greatest Nutzi mind of the master Nutzi yellow race! Watch him as he destroys his perceived enemies in personalities and institutions! Watch him as he destroys democracy, society, culture and mindset!
Der Nutzi Fuhrer loves sedition! He divides and conquers the people! He coddles and re-builds the empire of the Nutzi master yellow race! He turns to chaos and anarchy as a strategy to gain absolute power!
Der great Nutzi Fuhrer has no morals, no scruples and no principles! His corruption will soon become infamous! Watch him as he tries to destroy the nation and everything we hold sacred! Watch him as he destroys freedom and democracy! Watch him as he continues to use lies as his instrument of public policy!
Truly a scourge of God! Truly the greatest nutzi evil genius of the nutzi master yellow race! Heil!
When Noynoy claims he is on “Gods’ side” we should worry.
…his actions or shall i say political persecutions do not reflect his claims.
…Que lastima!
I call first dibs on one of the extended hands of that giant Mary statue in front of Robinson’s Galleria. Best seat in the house. 😀
I call dibs on the other Mary hand!
Hello Getrealphilippines,
I just stumbled across this and, I would need the reply correct absent due to the fact that we have a debate related to Manny Villar vs. Noynoy Aquino…and I belong to Noynoy…I just want your viewpoints..pls…thank you!
Great Job!
The Corona impeachment, trial, conviction and subsequent removal will most certainly lay down a precedent–the precedent that the exercise of the cherished individual right of every Filipino to express an opinion (human rights advocates call “freedom of speechâ€) as a member of a collegial body mandated under the Constitution to be wielded as a sacred duty is punishable by impeachment and removal from office, if the entities the Constitution entrusts to determine what constitutes an impeachable offense declare that the opinion so expressed is and, hence, impeachable.
OK then. Let’s get it on!
mag-rally na kau, dami nyong satsat. ingles-ingles pa kau, pinoy naman kaung lahat. ang hilig nyong magmagaling. baka pag nagkaposisyon kau sa gobyerno, numero uno rin kaung corrupt. ang pagtulong, hindi lang nagagawa sa sulat at salita. gumawa kau. mga epal kaung lahat. baka nga ang ilan sa inyo nag migrate na sa ibang bansa, di na kau pinoy, iniwan na ninyo ang pinas kaya tigilan na ninyo ang ka kokomento. hndi na kailangan ng pinas ang komento nyo. yang impeachment kay corona, pabayaan na ninyo yan. may epekto ba yan sa inyo? magugutom ba kau pag na-impeach yan o hindi? yung mga nagsasabi na kawawa ang mga taga CDO, nagbigay ka ba ng tulong? nagbuhat ka ba ng patay doon? kung hindi magtigil ka ng ka kokoment. ang hilig nyong mangagmagaling.
Pinoy nga naman talaga.
Parang aso;
Matangkad lang kapag naka-upo.
barok, pag na impeach si corona, lahat na nang sangay ng gobyerno ay hawak na ni Haring Noy. Malaya na siyang mam BULLY. Malaya nang mangurakot nang walang takot. Alam mo na ang kasunod. Hindi mo ba magets yun?
so may puwesto ka ba sa gubyerno o sa mga makakaliwang grupo? so sa tingin mo may magagawa ang pagsusulat mo dito? naapektuhan ba ng pagsusulat mo dito ang impeachment ni corona? cguro naman gets mo. kahit ilang comment pa ang isulat mo dito.. wala yang epekto sa kalalabasan ng impeachment. kaya mas mabuti pa na sariling buhay na lang ang asikasuhin nyo. o kung gusto mo talagang magkaroon ng impact ang mga naisin mo. Manguna ka doon sa malakanyang, magpapansin ka doon. doon nyo isambulat yang mga idelohiya ninyo.
Uh, Mr. Barok… sa tingin MO, may magagawa ba ang pagsusulat MO dito? 😀
alam mo ba kung bakit marami nang nag migrate sa ibang bansa? dahil mas malaki ang kinikita nila dun at dahil hindi nila matiis na mahiwalay sa kanilang pamilya kaya nila isinasama sa ibang bansa. Akala mo ba madali ang maging isang dayuhan sa ibang bansa? Pero mas mahirap maging dayuhan sa sarili mong bansa. Mas titiisin kong makutya ng mga dayuhan kaysa sa kapwa ko Pilipino, kung makapang mata ay wagas.
at hindi mo kailangang magbuhat nang patay sa CDO para masabi mo na nakatulong ang isang tao. sapat na ang makapagpadala ng pagkain, damit, tubig at higit sa lahat isang mataimtim na dasal para sa mga naulila.
So kelangan pag pinoy di dapat mag English???? Hindi nagmamagaling ang mga kumocomment dito… Iba ang nagmamagaling sa nagpapahiwatig ng damdamin. para saan pa’t naging demokratikong bansa tayo kung hindi namin mailalabas ang damdamin namin sa mga bagay na sa tingin namin ay mahalagang malaman ng bawat Pilipino.
tama ka pare ko galit nagalit sila ke pinoy dahil makukulong na ang amo nila wala silang lakas sa kurakot …mga tuta ni arroyo ano ba ang dahilan at galit na galit kayo kay pinoy ano ba ang ginawa sa inyo ng pinoy sabihin nga ninyo ng malaman ng tao kung hindi kayo tuta ni arroyo o nagmamalasakit lang kayo sa mamamayang pilipino ..
…it does not necessarily mean that when we are anti-pnoy we are pro-gloria.
…your premise is flawed.
@barok,
Isa ka siguro sa mga taong nakundisyon ng media na pag nag Eenglish ang isang pinoy ay masamang tao na. o kaya pag edukado eh corrupt na. Paki bawasan ang soap opera kool aid.
naku wala rin akong paki-alam jan sa media media na yan. madalas yan hindi balanse. at hindi rin ako nanood ng soap opera. ano ba ang ipinagsisintir ninyo sa impeachment? di ba gusto ninyong ipangalandakan ang pakialam ninyo sa gubyerno ng pilipinas, di ba nais nyong mapansin ang inyong pagiging nasyonalismo? so magtagalog ka, pinoy ka e. yang paraan nga lang na yan di nyo pa magawa…makiki-alam pa kayu sa isyu ng pilipinas. di ba site na ito ay get real philippines? bat di nyo tagalugin, magpakatotoo ka pilipinas. sino ba ang iniisip ninyong magbabasa nito? mga kano? pinoy naman ang market nyo dito bakit nyo pa pahihirapan ang milyong milyong pinoy na bobo sa ingles. yan ang totoo. magpakatotoo ka pilipinas. maraming pinoy bobo sa ingles..
Hindi ko lubos maisip na kapwa mo ay sinasabihang mong bobo sa ingles. parang sinabi mo na din na bobo ang mga Pilipino.
at sabi mo hindi ka nanonood ng soap opera at hindi ka din nanood nang balita. wala ka sigurong telebisyon.
Parigatan ka met, ta panagpagarup mo nga tagalog laeng ti sao ti kakailiam.
Ti rigat kenka ket maysa ka met nga aginlala-ing gapu ta tagalog laeng ti saom.
Adu ti Pilipino nga nalalaing ngem kenka, ken ha’n da masapul agtagalog.
(somebady translate for him. I’m too irritated with this “national language” BS.)
Para sa akin mas ok na english ang gamitin dito para kahit mga cebuano o iba pang pinoy na hindi marunong ng tagalog pero nakakaintindi ng ingles eh maintindihan to. Barok, igalang mo ang freedom of speech ng writer nito. At kung sa tingin mo walang kwenta ang pagkokomento dito, wag ka na lang din magcomment.

Hindi pag sinabing pinoy eh tagalog na agad. Maraming dialects sa pinas at minsan english ang gamitin para magkaintindihan kayo ng kausap mo na kapwa pinoy pero sa ibang region lumaki at hindi marunong magtagalog.
pwede ba natin kunan nang speed reading record and lahat nang congressman para malaman kung naiintindihan nila ang pinermahan nila.
Kung totoo hindi nila nabasa ang pinermahan nila dapat masuspende sila.
or pwede ba na mag present sila ng summary nang binasa nila, para siguradong naiintindihan nila yung pinirmahan nila?
Ang prayer nako sa Almighty God sana ang katotohanan lang ang lalabas sa impeachment process para kang justice Corona.Kung unta diri sa Cagayan de Oro City mahitabo ang impeachment trial aron, makaapil pud mi mga taga CDO sa pagbantay sa proseso sa impeache
ment,alang -alang sa atong nasod.Dili man gud maiwasan ang atong MISTRUST sa proseso lalo na ang nag initiate sa impeachment mao man ang atong Presidente sa Pilipinas na siya ang pinaka powerful na tao sa atong nasod. kATOTOHANAN lang sana ang kalabasan ng lahat; at hindi dahil ang pinaka powerful na tao ng bayan ay nasa likod sa lahat na ito.Kung ang Presidente ng Pilipinas ay siyang manalo dito at na ma alis ang isang tao na ayaw niyang maglingkod sa Korte Suprema sa ilalim ng kanyang administrasyon, ano pa nga ang magagawa ng isang ordinaryong pilipino katulad ko na nagnanais na ang Korte Suprema natin ay binubo-o ng independent-thinker like Mr Corona.Ang gusto kasi ng Presidente na lahat na nasa Korte Suprema ay nakapanig sa kanya,kya mag lagay siya ng kanyang sariling tao na LOYAL sa kanya.Paano na lang kung sila lahat ay nakapanig sa Presidente, wala ng tinatawag na CHECK and BALANCE sa ating mga korte sa Pilipinas. Ang ako lang dili masabtan, ngano man nga ang mga abogado sa Pilipinas misugot man nga ingon ani-on sa Presidente ang korte suprema? Ang atong mga abogado man gyud ang nakasabot niini, nga unta ang Korte Suprema walay pinapanigan kahit sino man, aron ang HUSTISYA ang mogawas gayud.Ako nga dili abogado, nakasabot man kog gamay kabahin niini, unsa pa kaha ang atong mga abogado? Mga gani gitawag ni nga Supreme Court ky Supreme ang mga decision nga mogawas gikan dinhi.Unsa nalang ang mahitabo,kung ang decision ng ating Supreme Court puro na lang sa panig ng Powerful Man ng bayan,na syang presidente ng ating bayan.Sana mabasa ito ng ating mga SENADOR and Congressmen,at silang lahat ay ma guide ng kanilang mga God-given CONSCIENCE.Kami naman mga ordinaryong mamamayan,na kahit papaano ay naka pag aral ng kolehiyo, ay nakabantay kung sino sa kanila mga nasa pwesto ng Senado & Congress ay SUNOD-SUNORAN NA LAMANG sa mga tao na nasa position of POWER. Sana itong aking humble opinion ay mabasa nila at makarating sa kanila kahit papaano.Sana itong humble opinion ko, masundan pa nga marami-raming opinion sa mga Pilipino na NAKAKA INTINDI sa lakad ng panahon. patawarin ako sa aking kapwa pilipino kung masabi ko na ang, karamihan sa atin, ay susunod sa nakakarami,o yong tinatawag na BAND-WAGON MENTALITY.at tamad mag isip ng malalim kung tama ba o hindi ang mga pangyayari.Im sure, marami kaming mga silent majority na may isip na ganito. Again, ang katotohanan lang ang gusto namin mga silent majority, ang lalabas sa trial na ito.Lastly, im sorry kung taglish ang language na nagamit ko, ito lang ang pamaraan na masulat ko ang nilolo-ob ko.
Wala na ba talagang ending sa ating mga politico na MANIMALOS (revenge) sa isat-isa.Alang-alang lang sa kabutihan at katahimikan ng ating bayan,please nagmamakaawa akong sabihin sa inyo, tama na ang mga
PANIMALOS ninyo sa isat-isa. We will monitor closely the proceedings from where we are, and we like to know who among our congressmen & senators have the authentic conscience to resolve conscientiously this problem, then we will still vote for them in the coming election.
Im disgusted of this Impeachment Trial, lots of money wasted by Prosecution team to pay for their free lunches/food etc. and gas for the Prosec team and their pro bono lawyers. Imagine how many millions were now squandered by these Penoy lackeys just to convict a Cgief Justice as he is not contented of the 5 billon land value of hacienda luisita, instead wanted 10B more? where is justice? The farmers of that damned hacienda is wallowing in poverty while the conjuangcos and aquinos are billionaires/ millionaires at the expense of their tenants. I am so disgusted why people cant see the real truth behind this Impeachment. I want to take back my one vote for this Noynoying President. Oh how mad am i now, i was a fool to believe in his promises. Electricity will again increase this May, when will the sufferings of the Pilipinos end under his regime>Let’s put a STOP to this insanity now.
We also request our congressmen and senators ,please basahin ninyo with intelligent- minds and with your conscience ,before kayo mag affix ng mga signatures ninyo, kasi in your signatures nakasalalay ang katahimikan ng ating bayan. Please, sana hindi na maulit yong nangyayari na majority of these law-making offficials just write their signatures without even reading the texts. Again, huwag ninyong kalimutan na nakasalalay ang katahimikan ng ating bayan sa mga signatura ninyo. kasi, kami mga silent majority hindi papayag na gamitin lang kayo as stamping-pad individuals. Gamitin nyo naman ang galing at talino nyo,kaya nga kayo ang pinili namin na maging senador & congressmen.Manahimik lang ang taong bayan kapag you made the right& justifiable decision.Mark my words! Maraming salamat.God bless our country & its people.
ulul ka vincenzo!
Ang galing talaga ni Gloria mag create nang diversion
(crickets)
i think that went over my head…would you mind saying that again but this time with your mouth open..
Addendum Ill-gotten wealth. Declared SALN shows 40 million increase in the span of 10 years. Info can be obtained at pcojdotorg.
if the CJ has been impeached due to favoring GMA, can BS be impeached for favoring his cabinet members? case in point is llamas, puno, acosta and the rest of his KKK…we already know about puno and his bungling of the hostage situation and his knowledge of drug lords, acosta for his case at the sandiganbayan (or was it the ombudsman) and that he cannot be suspended because he is an appointee and hence the alter ego of the president which means, he says, if he gets suspended is tantamount to suspending the president, (words to that effect), and finally, llamas…enuff said
It has taken 3 weeks and a display of comical unpreparedness on the part of the prosecution to arrive at the answer that “verification” is a constitutional requirement not to be treated as a mere technicality because obviously, these last 3 weeks has incontrovertibly shown us the importance of “verification” by the complainants. By “verification” is meant that they have read the articles of impeachment, understood them, and believe them to be true. That can only come about if there was a thorough investigation of the charges and the complainant was aware of its findings. That’s what should have taken place in committee hearings, brought to sharper focus during plenary debates, and only then be voted upon and signed by complainants. That way, they would just be passing on the evidences they would have already gathered to the senate tribunal and explain to them how they arrived at their conclusion. The respondent would be given his due process by way of his defense and presumption of innocence. And that’s all. Kudos to the framers for that all important requirement. “Verification” implies that the “hard work” has been done. Non-verification means it has been railroaded. The proof of the pudding is in the eating these last 3 weeks. I rest my case.
isama narin natin dito ang SALN ni Tupas! Ipasubpoena yung alpha list, ITR ng pamilya, aso at pati narin kapitbahay nya, SEC, LRT, NBA, UAAP and buong barangay isubpoena natin magsama sila ng abnoy na presidente and let judgment come upon them as much as they put judgment on innocent CJ Corona! iimpeach na ang yellow brat pero salamat narin at nandyan siya kund si Erap na naman ang naging pangulo natin! Baka panahon na ni Binay para maging tunay na tayo na mahirap. On second thought matulog nalang tayo! hahaha
I am very willing to sign your articles of impeachment. tunay at makatotohanan ang lahat ng inilahad mo, and I have read it, verified based on my personal knowledge. Gising mga kababayan, let us impeach our this stupid president of the mobs.
Unexplained increase of wealth from 13.9M to 55M. Based on legal salaries of the congressman and senator, you can not earn 40M in just one year….
Partying and playing WOW while people were suffering from calamities.
Display of Luxury like porsche while people were still poor.
Can you add these in the articles of impeachment against the President?
Sana matuto na ang mga pinoy. Minsan kasi lahat nadadaan sa drama, Namatay si Ninoy, tumakbo si Cory- nanalo, Namatay si Cory, tumakbo si Noynoy- nanalo. Para na tayong uto-uto nyan eh. Ung abs-cbn sinisensationalize pa ang lovelife ni Noynoy sa kabila ng kahirapang nangyayari sa bansa para takpan lang ang kapalpakan nya. Nung election si Shalani, after election nagbreak. After impeachment kaya break na rin sila ni Grace Lee. Sobrang bullshit lahat ng nangyayari. Hindi ko talaga alam kung bakit yung mga tao na may pinag-aralan naman ay nagpapauto dyan kay Noynoy. Hindi ba usong gumamit ng isip dito sa Pilipinas? Natutuwa ako na may ilan na kayang gumamit ng utak at hindi nagpapadala sa drama. Please lang maawa naman kayo sa anak nyo at magiging anak nyo pa, ano na lng ang matitira sa kanila?
“Hindi ba usong gumamit ng isip dito sa Pilipinas?”
Unfortunately, no.
…meron pero sa maling paraan.
kulang yata yung articles of impeachment…how about yung pagbigay ng 5m sa milf; cuddling & tolerating behaviors of llamas
Oh crap, binasa ko muna bago ko pinirmahan, does that make a BAD statesman?!
LOL 😀
Pinoy thinks he is all good yet he is so full of crap and shenanigans! He is definitely going down.
It would be ironic if there would be another people power against PNOY
eto na naman kayong mgatuta ni arroyo at pinoy ..kayo mga tiuta ni arroyo tanggapin naninyo na tapos na si arroyo makukulong na si pinoy naman bigyan ninyo ng pagkakataon na patunayan ang mga sinabi niya noong nangangangpanya sya ..hindi sya maeempeacht dahil marami pa ang nakapila na maeempeacht ..susunod ay mga judge uli at mga tuta ni arroyo kaya busy ang mga congressman ..
Pnoy critic =/= Arroyo lapdog. Did you just tl:dr’d the article?
Uhmm…why do we keep on going back to the GMA issue? I do not get the point. Nauubusan na ba tyo ng pambato sa politically correct arguments ng mga taong concerned sa future ng Pinas. Seriously, has Pnoy been better than GM in terms of governance?
kulang nga mga articles. we could double that with more evident proof too.
but he’s right. we deserve this for allowing “such a noynoy” to become president. let this 6 years be a lesson to the country. asa pa kayong may mangyayari? LOL
pag may nanalo pa dyan sa 188 including Fariñas sa 2013, no lesson has been learned.
…agree.
…it only shows that many filipinos are still not using their minds in choosing the deserving public servants.
Let’s push this through and now we can add up more to the Articles of Impeachment of Ab-Noynoy Aquino.
Ayoko pumirma! Bakit ipitin yung pork barrel ko, baka iinvestigate ako ng BIR for tax evasion. Baka hubaran ako sa harap ng publiko! 🙁
O, pano yan? pipirma ka na ba?
Sana ay huwag namang napaka-sweeping ang mga comments at wala ding calling names at nakakainsultong salita na binibitiwan ang mga nagbibigay ng kanilang views.Kung may anti-Gloria ay may anti-Pnoy din.Hind papayag ang bawat isa na mag-patalo.Pero kung ang isang tao ay tatawagin mo ng kung anu-anong nakakainsultong pangalan dahil hindi siya sumasang-ayon sa iyo ay mabuti pang huwag ka nang sumali sa usapan.
Kay benignO@…Tutal inilatag mo na ang mga grounds para ma-impeach ang Pangulong Aquino ay umaasa ako na sa unang pagkakataon na makita mo na pwede na itong ihain sa Kongreso ay gagawin mo.
AKO? PIPIRMAHAN KO YAN,AT DI KO BABASAHIN KAHIT KAILAN! JUST LIKE WHAT THEY DID TO CJ CORONA! YEARS AFTER ABNOY VACATE THE PALACE FOR A GUILTY VERDICT, ATSAKA KO PALANG YAN BASAHIN! PWEH!
I am all for a change. Impeach that incompetent leader.
bumabaliktad na panahon ngayon marcos is the good guy aquinos are the bad 🙂
noynoy’s rule must end asap
ang issue dyan illegal or legal ang dap…. kaya may kasalanan sya dapat lang managot.
ano pasilbi ng law ng pilipinas king walang mananagot…
with these so many proofs go Abnoys culpability, let the Congress start impeachment process. What are they waiting for?
The big problem is that, there are many Yellow Zombies in the govt. who likes to kiss each others asses. How could these Yellow Zombies impeach Noynoy? Not a chance.
