About Time

The Dawn OF A Brighter Tomorrow

THE opposition yesterday said it would file administrative and criminal charges  against government officials who participated in the "fraudulent and deceptive" People’s Initiative to amend the charter.

 

Forty-two of the 43 media persons sued for libel by First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo yesterday agreed to file a suit against Atty. Arroyo for abusing his powers to file libel cases and for violating the rights of journalists.

 

   It takes a long time coming but hopefully this will be the start of redress of grievances  for people who have long persevered in having their rights and freedoms trampled upon by the fake president who claims she has the mandate of the people. The media cowed by her pretense address her PGMA – President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.  There is nothing presidential about a pretender, especially when the very first official act is to accept bribes from a foreign enterprise, IMPSA, which was turned down by her predecessor for the simple reason that it is dirty money. Pretender Arroyo got no qualms about dirty money – it is money, period.

 

   The Ombudsperson should actually be very busy pursuing cases of theft and malversation of funds, if she puts her mind to it. As it is, she is apparently asleep on the job, and if she is not, she is off to a junket to Germany, like there were nothing else  better to do. This is an odious anomaly at a great expense of the people.  The office of the Ombudsperson  is an independent entity, according to its official function.  Fact is, it is linked to malacanang by un umbellical cord. It is an insult to the intelligence of the people.
