Voting 10-5, the Supreme Court yesterday struck down a warning issued by the Department of Justice and of the National Telecommunications Commission to radio and television stations against airing the alleged wiretapped conversations between President Arroyo and former elections commissioner Virgilio Garcillano.
The high tribunal said the warning, which carried the threat of cancellation of the license of the violator, constitutes prior restraint which infringes on the constitutionally protected freedom of the press.
The warning was questioned before the SC by former solicitor general Francisco Chavez.
The 38-page decision penned by Chief Justice Reynato Puno, however, was silent on whether the controversial taped conversations between Arroyo and Garcillano were a product of illegal wiretapping, an issue not raised in the Chavez petition.
The recordings allegedly show Arroyo telling Garcillano to make sure she would have a lead of one million votes over Fernando Poe Jr. during the 2004 elections.
Arroyo, on national TV, had admitted that she talked to an election official but denied that she ordered the rigging of the poll results. She apologized to the nation for her “lapse in judgment.”
“In this jurisdiction, it is established that freedom of the press is crucial and so inextricably woven into the right to free speech and free expression, that any attempt to restrict it must be met with an examination so critical that only a danger that is clear and present would be allowed to curtail it,” the court said.
Prior restraint on speech based on content cannot be justified by hypothetical fears, the SC said.
“We rule that not every violation of a law will justify straitjacketing the exercise of freedom of speech and of the press… The totality of the injurious effects of the violation to private and public interest must be calibrated in light of the preferred status accorded by the Constitution and by related international covenants protecting freedom of speech and of the press,” the court said.
While noting the lack of legal standing of Chavez in filing the suit, the court held that it must set aside the technicalities of procedure to give way to the resolution of the case which has “transcendental importance to the public.”
Puno was joined in his ponencia by Associate Justices Leonardo Quisumbing, Consuelo Ynares-Santiago, Angelina Sandoval-Gutierrez, Antonio Carpio, Ma. Alicia Austria-Martinez, Conchita Carpio-Morales, Adolfo Azcuna, and Ruben Reyes.
The dissent was written by Associate Justice Antonio Eduardo Nachura. Concurring were Justices Renato Corona, Minita Chico-Nazario, and Teresita Leonardo-de Castro.
Associate Justice Presbiterio Velasco concurred with the majority in so far as voiding the DOTC warning but voted to uphold the NTC warning.
Justice Dante Tiñga also agreed that the DOJ warning constitutes prior restraint but found nothing wrong with the NTC position, mainly because no media practitioner came forward to support Chavez’ petition.
In her concurring opinion, Gutierrez said the issuance made by the NTC and DOJ is a form of censorship. She said the interest of the public to know the truth about the last national election and to be fully informed should take precedence over the government’s interest in maintaining public order.
Gutierrez likened the restrictions on the media to the burning by the Nazis of books written by Jewish authors, saying what was first a severe form of book censorship ended up in genocide.
In Nachura’s dissenting opinion, he said it was not improper for the NTC to warn the media that the airing of taped materials, “if subsequently shown to be false, would be a violation of law and of the terms of their certificate of authority, and could lead, after appropriate investigation, to the cancellation or revocation of their license.”
Nachura said from the time the assailed NTC statement was issued, the feared criminal prosecution and license revocation never materialized and they remained “imagined concerns, even after the contents of the tapes had been much talked about and publicized.”
Chavez, in a phone interview, said the decision strengthened the exercise of free speech and the right of the people to have access to information.
“It is heart-warming to know that the SC has decided that respondents not only committed prior restraint but also of (issuing) the threat of subsequent punishment. By declaring that, the SC has opened the door for the playing of the questioned tapes,” said Chavez.
What do we expect from Gonzales rubber stamp DOJ dept? NOTHING!
They are trying to block and STOP all our moves to have a legal battle against this Pidalismo regime. But in the meantime, if we are planning and/or doing any action against this regime, they will put the full force against us.
In other words, maging legal o illegal walang mapuntahan ang Masang Pilipino, masahol pa sa martial law ang rehiming ito.
Makatotohanan lamang na ang ginagawang pagkilos ng bawat kinauukulan eh tumpak sapagka’t wala tayong aasahan at NEVER na didinggin ang ating panambitan.
This is a tactical moves ng Supreme court to divert NBN/ZTE controversy away from Pidalismo gov’t. Dapat noon pa ito ginawaran ng hustisya pero selective ang mga Justices natin kaya WAG na LANG! Thank you.
Ayon sa balita, ayaw pa rin pumayag ng Siraulo sa DOI sa order ng Supreme Court. Pakiramdam niya na mas mataas pa siya sa Supreme Court.
Congratulations Siraulo, you just earned a new title: “Grand Inquisitor of the Kingdom of the Philippines.” As for perks, you will be given excellent medical benefits including an all expense paid brain transplant.
Glad to know that after couple of years, the SC has finally made a decision for this controversy. How I wish that people who are behind this 2004 Poll manilpulation will be punished. My sincerest thanks ang congratulations for SC’s great verdict.
Mr. Puno please utang na loob STOP issuing any favor para lamang to play that Hello Garci tape, baka tampered na yan at utang na loob pa ng Masang Pilipino.
Ngayon pa kayo nagkaisip to lift para patugtugin ito, buti pa bibili na lang kami ng MP3 music mag-enjoy pa habang nakikipagrally.
Sa inyo nalang ang Garci tape na yan at ng may soveneir kayo at baka makasuhan pa kami ni Chairman Edu kung copy lang ang mabibili namin sa bangketa.
Mr. Puno pls. tell Gonzales and the NTC heirchy na sa inyo na lang yang garci tape at ang gusto nang taong-Bayan eh yong laman niyan upang kasuhan ang lahat ng sangkon sa pandaraya n’yo last 2004 election. IS THAT CLEAR mr. Puno!
Kgg. Krunck,
Isaksak na lang nila sa baga nila ang garci tape na yan, ngayon pa at ano gusto nilang palabasin para tayong aso na sa kapirasong buto eh magaaway-away tayo.
Ano sila sinuswerte, NO no no no no………! This is a ploy and we need to be vigilant about their tactical moves to cover-up their kapalpakan sapagka’t partisan silang lahat.
Dapat turuan ng leksyon ang mga iyan ng mangatuto ng logic at arithmitic o kaya drawing.
Almost 4-years na yang garci tapes ngayon pa nila naisipang patugtugin, buti ba si Bunyeta gawin na lang niyang MP3 yan ng masiyan.
Pika na ang taong-Bayan sa Gonzales na yan Kgg. Kabayan, maikli na ang kandila niya eh ayaw pang magpakabuti at makagawa man lang ng kahit kaunting kabutihan sa bayan.
Ang salot sa lipunan eh dapat binibigyan ng leksyon sa buhay, dapat litisin yan sa people’s court ASAP.
balweg,
palagay ko ang kahalagahan nitong desisyon na puwede ng magpatugtog ay—- puwede na ding pormal na imbestigahan ito at gawing basehan sa anumang imbestigasyon.
sangayon ako sa paalala mong maari itong isang diversion sa isang tingin, pero may tulis din ito sa kabila; dagdag ito sa mga maraming pananagutan na ihaharap sa pekeng pamunuan ng mga Pidal.
Balweg;
Huli man daw at magaling maihahabol din. At least my chance tayo na malaman ang ‘unfinished business’ sa Hello Garci na yan ( dina-download ko nga from http://www.abante.com.ph kaso ang tagal)
I agree with you Zen2.
Raul Goonzales is the worst DOJ Sec the country ever had. He is even questioning the decision of the Supreme Court. How dare he says the Garci tape is illegal when the Highest Court already gave a favorable decision in its airing. Dapat ma-disbarred na itong si matandang mabahong asong Ilonggo.
Isa sa mga dahilan kung bakit natigil ang imbestigasyon sa Senado dahil diyan sa issue na ‘yan. Laging sinasabi ng mga administration senators na illegal daw ang pagpapatugtug ng tape. If we are still interested to get to the bottom of this issue, the Supreme Court ruling will be a lot of help.
Balita ko meron daw bagong witness si Sen. Biazon, kung very material at credible di pa natin alam at least ang ruling na ito ng Supreme Court ay makakatulong sa pag-usad ng imbestigasyon.
Hindi po “tanga ang taumbayan”!
Bakit sa gitna ng mainit na kontrobersya sa ma-anomalyang ZTE ay kagyat na nagbaba ng atas ang Korte Suprema, na maari pa lang ma-i-ere ang “Hello Garci Tapes”? I-pikit ko man ang aking mata at bibig ay mayroong halong patibong sa nasabing kapasyahan ng Korte Suprema!
Ito’y paghamon ni Gloria sa sektor ng media? Kaya’t panawagan sa ABSCBN at GMA7, i-taya ninyo na ang inyong komersyalisadong-interes para sa pagsasa-ere ng “Hello Garci Tapes” at kayo’y manindigan para sa totoong malayang pamamahayag, para sa katotohanan at “Para sa Bayan”! (nangsaganun ay mawala na sa nilagom-isip ni Ka DJBRIZALIST na ang mga malayang pamamahayag ay bahagi ng komersyo’t pansariling-interes ng iilang ganid na taong taga-media). Mabuti pa ang abante online, mayroon nang serye ng attachment na “Hello Garci Tapes” na puwedeng nang mapakinggan.
Hindi po inililigaw ni gloria ang taumbayan, ito’y pinag-aalab niya/nila ang damdamin ng taumbayan na mag-alsa, at lumikha ng isang senaryong patungong digmaang sibil (tulad ng asasinasyon, bombahan, at iba pa…) na sila rin ang awtor at direktor, nangsanganun ay daglian silang makapag-deklara ng Martial Law! nang dahil sa “Hello Garci Tapes”.
Yung mga taong nasa Hello Garci lang naman ang pwedeng magpahinto ng pag-play nun. Yan ay kung aaminin silang sila yung nasa recordings. At iyan ang mahirap nilang gawin dahil they will implicate themselves to the crime. Hehehe!
SA totoo lang, sa lahat ng mga nakakaintindi sa mga ginagawang pambabastos at garapalang pagsisinungaling, pagnanakaw, at pambobomba, siguro naman ay nakakainsulto na rin ang lahat ng ito, lalo na doon sa katalinuhan ng mga Mahistrado.
Magmumukhang retarded na sila kung pagbibigyan pa nila ang kasuwapangan ng mga nasa Palasyo.
Lahat ‘ata ng mga sektor sa ating Lipunan ay sinusubukan sa panahon na ‘to.
Ano ba ang mas matibay: ang Kasamaan o ang Kagaguhan?
Re: BB’s – Raul Goonzales is the worst DOJ Sec the country ever had. Not only that, Unano is the worsts President (even if she is not legitimate to call that way) and her clan and subordinates: A-Post-tool, At-10-Sha, Buni, Ass-Pweron, A22-Boo, Barias, Hambalos, & et.al.
Krunck:
Off topic but how is the Arroyo support group doing there. A year or two ago, I actually had spied on the said group that was about to be split into several fragments because of rivalry for recognition and financing by the dorobos. Who won the contest, do you know?
The last info I got was that better group to “sipsip” was the chosen one for registration with the SEC in the Philippines. Actually, this is how this regime has tried to use the OFWs likewise for its selfish schemes.
Said rival groups were in the KSA, Krunck, your territory.
10-5 ang iskor, ibig sabihin en banc ang desisyon—-lahat ng kagawad ng SC ay sumali sa deliberasyon ng kaso.
at ang SC Chief mismo sumulat ng ponencia (desisyon) ! isang paraan ba ito ng pagparamdam ni Mr. Puno na nagkamali siya duon sa kwestiyonableng ‘constructive resignation’ bumabalot ng EDSA 2 ?
anupaman ang dahilan, nararapat lamang ang desisyong ito, isang klasikal na isyu ng malayang pamamahayag.
at salamat sa abugadong dumulog sa Korte, na siya ring abugado ni Maj Gen Renato Miranda isa sa mga Kgg. na sundalong kinulong ni ‘Pweron.
salamat, Frank Chavez.
Before singing alleluyahs to the Supreme Court.
Read their decision again. Napagusapan na ang desisyon
kaya alam na ni Gonzales ang susunod niyan gagawin. Take note: The warning is illegal. But it did not say airing the
tape is okay. The supreme court is conspiratorially
playing it safe. As usual ginawang gago tayong mga Pinoy.
Luz,
Iyan din ang nasa isip ko. Kung sinong puputak, siyang nanganak. Okey, sige una-unahan na kayo sa EK na i-ban uli ito. hahah!
Zen,
Thank you sa paala-ala na si Atty. Chavez nga pala ang nagdulog sa korte ng kasong ito. Sa tagal ay nalimutan ko na.
Thanks to Atty. Chavez.
In fairness to the Supreme Court, kung ano lang ang petition, yun lang ang kanilang gagawan ng desisyon. They cannot second-guess the petitioner at aminado naman si Chavez na limitado lang ‘yong petition na inihain niya and to quote him;
Chavez said that media agencies that might be charged for playing the “Hello, Garci” tapes based on RA 4200 can raise the issue again with the Supreme Court using the high tribunal’s own decision in their defense.
Kgg. Krunck pasakelye lang yan ng Supreme Court para magkagulo uli sa legalidad ng pagpapatugtog ng garci tape, kita mo di pa nauumpisahan to play eh kontra agad si Gonzales at humihirit din ang NTC. Ibig sabihin butas-butas ang batas natin at bungal ang ngipin, mga intelehente naman sana yong nagcomposed ng mga iyan pero walang dunong at palpak.
Hanggang sa umabot tayo ng 2010 eh pinagtatalunan pa yan, buying time di ba! Wise ang Pidalismo regime, dinadali tayo sa kanila kunong katangahan pero switik ang mga iyan dahil pang-ubos ng oras.
We need to find the best strategy at wag tayong padala sa diskarte nila, mga wise yan! Mauubos ang ating oras to take back itong Malacanang sa rightful servant.
Di ba around 11Million ang Pinoy sa abroad + yong pamilya natin sa pinas tig 10 each na lang tayo aba eh ang dami natin folks.
For me, since 2001 ko pa sinimulang ang aking pamilya and neighbors so ang mga kababaryo ko at ang aming bayan eh oppositionist sa tutuo lang kaya di naman nanalo sa aming probinsiya si GMA eh.
Manunumbalik ang tiwala ng taong-Bayan sa Korte Suprema Kgg. Ace kung itutuwid nila ang kanilang malaking kasalanan not only kay Pres. Erap but sa 11 Million voters na legal na nagluklok sa kanya sa Malacanang.
Yang 11M na yan eh registered voters not flying voters + yong mga kapamilya nila na di nakaboto dahil nawala ang name sa voters list + yong mga non-register voters, pagsinuma mo yan eh ang laki ng bilang di ba.
Ngayon, papaano maipapaliwanag ni Davide Jr. at Puno ang damdamin ng mga Pinoy na kanilang dinusta at inapakan ang karangalan pati na yong karapatan.
Di basta madaling isang tabi ang ginawa nilang kasalanan sa bayan kaya it will take time to heal and they need to probe na nagsisisi na sila sa kanilang mga kasalanan.
Doon pa lang tayo mag move-on….
Take note: The warning is illegal. But it did not say airing the tape is okay.
******************
One at a time. The petition filed by Frank Chavez only questioned the warnings. That is all the Court could pass judgment on. The Court could not rule on the legality of playing the tapes because there was no government action on it. The Court only decides actual disputes, not hypothetical ones i.e. “eh kung i-play namin, bawal ba?”
The legality of an arrest based on RA 4200 will be put to test once the government seeks to arrest anybody. Although the law enjoys presumptive validity, its constitutionality can be raised in court.
My view is that the prohibition on playing is unconstitutional, because it punishes speech and not action. True, there is action when one plays the tape, but as the Supreme Court of the US brushed this aside when it said,
“It is true that the delivery of a tape recording might be regarded as conduct, but given that the purpose of such a delivery is to provide the recipient with the text of recorded statements, it is like the delivery of a handbill or a pamphlet, and as such, it is the kind of “speech” that the First Amendment protects.”
Also, the contents of the tapes are matters of public interest, which trumps privacy rights, as held in the case of Manong Johnny himself – Ayer Productions v. Hon. Ignacio Capulong and Juan Ponce Enrile. This case was about the airing of the EDSA movie produced by the Aussies.
I had written some thoughts about this earlier, found in the Ping Lacson website. It follows the text of the privilege speech of Senator Lacson in the thread “Reopening Garci”
Nawa eh maraming tulad mo Kgg. Jay cynikho ang lubos na nakakauwa sa kalapastangang ginawa ng Pidalismo regime sa pagyurak sa ating Constitution, sapagka’t ito ang aklat ng kasarinlan ng Masang Pilipino.
Ang Supreme Court ang malaki ang pananagutan sa taong-Bayan sapagka’t sila ang nagpanumpa kay GMA not once but twice.
Kung itong mga justices natin eh ginamit ang utak at di ang damdamin, di tayo aabot sa ganitong sitwasyon at sure na tahimik tayong mga Pinoy.
Wala akong bilib sa kanila sa panahong ito, at posibleng magbago ang aking pananaw kung ang susunod na henerasyon ang silang maluluklok sa timbangan ng katarungan.
Di ba nalathala noon sa mga pahayagan na tinagurian silang goons in robes?
Balweg,
Nauunawaan ko ang iyong damdamin patungkol sa nangyari kay ERAP, maganda siguro alamin na lang natin ang kanyang saloobin sa mga pangyayaring ito. Ito ang balita kanina sa GMA news (as of 02/16/2008/05:25 PM)
“Estrada said he believes that these groups are now gradually realizing their mistake. He said that he is ready to join force with the people who demonized him for the common objective of fighting corruption. He said he had forgiven the people who did him wrong.”
So, ang maganda siguro nating gawin ay samahan na lang ang mga nakararaming kababayan natin na labanan ang corruption.
Take note: The warning is illegal. But it did not say airing the tape is okay. -Atty
Ang butas na ito ay papasukan na naman ni Gunggong for sure. Kung ganyan ay baka sampolan ni Gunggong ang demanda sa Abante for being the first to air ([pwede pang i-download) ang Hello Garci tapes.
Nauna ang Abante sa pagpaparinig ng tapes sa publiko, Congrats! Matapang talaga ang publisher (anak ni Jake Macasaet) ng tabloid na ito.
Take note: The warning is illegal. But it did not say airing the tape is okay.
**********************
chi: Si jay cynikho ang naka-observe niyan
Gusto niyong talu-talo na? Sa mass sa La Salles, magdala ng boombox, at ipatugtog kay Guingona. Tingnan natin kung aarestuhin siya. Have lawyers ready to assist him. Of course, he is a lawyer himself, pero mabuti yung dumagsa ang IBP sa court.
They will try to arrest without a warrant, dahil the police can arrest while the crime is in progress. But since it is a minuscule crime, and the perpetrator is a former VP, tiyak na bail on recognizance lang yan. This will provide cause to bring the issue to the Supreme Court to have the law, as applied to tapes of public interest declared unconstitutional.
Note the entire law cannot be declared unconstitutional, but only its application to matters of public interest. Kung may malisyoso halimbawang nag-tape sa inyong mag-asawa o mag-nobyo na doing something nice, ala Macoy and Dovie Beams, I’m sure you will not consider the airing of the tapes as covered by freedom of speech.
Mga Kasama,
Look at today’s “Harapan” hosted by Korina Sanchez and Ricky Carandang wherein Jun Lozada faced the full force of Malacanang’s propaganda machine like ASEC Formoso, ASEC Golez, resigned Comelec Abalos and his lawyer and the almost pika at pikon na si Avelino Razon and you must be the judge. 91.3% texted they believed Lozada to be telling the truth while only 8.7% said otherwise. This only shows, mga kasama, matalino na ang mga taongbayan. Sa inyo mga manlilinlang sa gobyernong ito, tama na ang kasinungalingan ninyo. Kung mayroon man lamang kayo kahit kaunting integrity sa buhay ninyo, magsipag-resign na po kayo. Masama kung taong bayan ang magpapa-alis sa inyo. Hindi kayo mapapatawad!!!
Chi: Nauna ang Abante sa pagpaparinig ng tapes sa publiko, Congrats! Matapang talaga ang publisher (anak ni Jake Macasaet) ng tabloid na ito.

Tabloid kasi kaya puede. Over in UK, kahit Royal family ng UK hindi mademanda ang mga tabloids for their outrageous articles on the members of the royal family. Nire-request na lang na i-low down ang kanilang tone.
Pero sa Pilipinas, tinatakot with libel suits na nakahain pa doon sa mesa ng mga appointee at kaibigan ng mga dorobo kaya malakas ang loob halimbawa noong Tabatsoy na magsampa ng kaso.
Hopefully, mababago na iyan. It is not too late in fact to kick her out contrary to what the dorobo’s lackeys say now na pabayaan na lang daw kasi 2 years na lang election na naman, and that she will not run. Oh yeah? Kaya nga gusto niyang mag-Chacha na. Two years is surely unbearably long for those who suffer. Please huwag na nilang pahabain pa.
Ang ginawa ni Gloria Dorobo is a crime. She should be disqualified and sent to jail for it—Hello, Garci! Rinnnnnng. Rinnnnnng!
..Ngayon naman ang sabi ng Death of Justice Secretary siraulo, alisin daw sa trabajo and mga cabinet members na dumalo sa misa sa Sunday sa La Salle.. ang sabi niya na hindi daw magandang tingnan na sinuporta ng mga cabinet members ang isang lumalaban kay GMA.. ang mga tanong ko:
1) Jun Lozada told all he knows about ZTE and mentioned the names of Abalos, Neri and FG..bakit laban kay GMA ang pinahiiwatig ni siraulo? Alam natin na maykinalaman si GMA, napinatunayan ngayon si siraulo…ay talagang siraulo nga..broken head..
2) Susunod kaya ang mga cabinet members? tingnan natin kung sino sa mga ito ang wala sa misa..and it will prove to us na they agree to the siraulo’s mandate..magkakanyang razon na ang mga ito..it would be wonderful indeed if they show their support..but do we really need their support? Boss nila si GMA hindi ang Dios..the decision is theirs..
Do we really need their support?
Although the SC has declared the government warnings to media from airing the tapes unconstitutional, the Secretary of Justice is still threatening to charge anyone who will play the tapes with violating the Anti-Wiretapping Law. Media can play the tapes at their own risk. Atty. Chavez’s petition was too limited in scope.
Rose,
You bet, binisto ni SiRaulo ang mga amo niya, for if Gloria dorobo is not guilty, she should allow this investigatigation to take its course. Sabi nga sa Ilocano, “Ti agkuták, isú’t nagitlóg. (lit. “He who cackles laid the egg,” or “iyong guilty, siyang unang pumuputak.”
In short, bobo talaga! Dumura sa mukha niya.
The Ilocanos have this saying: Ti agkuták, isú’t nagitlóg.
He who cackles laid the egg (he who talks first is the guilty party)
With regard to the Garci tapes..we all know the contents of the tapes .narinig na..pero mas maganda kung maririnig again and again. Maganda ang suggestion ni atty..
after the mass during a salo salo if there is a fellowship..at sa paglabas ng mga tao..after the priests say
“the mass is over go in peace..” et te misa est (I forgot the Latin words) play the tape..would former VP Guingona do it? Please sir do! I hope too that Bishop Labayen, and the other priests who were in the Nov. 29 incident will be concelebrant at the mass…Huwag si Cardinal Rosales, Bishop Villegas, at yong mga iba pa na kasali sa GMA group..we will be united with you at that mass..we will be in union with you in our prayers..at salamat sa lahat na sasama for being there for us who are not able to physically attend…and thanks to the Christian brothers for giving support to the Lozada family..thanks too Mrs. Aquino..for organizing this mass…thanks too to the media who will be there to give us the real account..and Mr. Lozada be not afraid..we are all behind you and God will guide you and through the intercession of the Blessed Mother you and your family will be safe..She will cover and protect you..”Be Not Afraid..what ‘er may be God will take care of you!” Peace to all!
Let Gloria Arroyo and Virgilio Garcillano file a complaint for violation of anti-wiretapping law against radio/TV stations airing Hello Garci tapes. Gloria Arroyo had already admitted talk to an election official to protect her votes in 2004 fraudulent presidential election. How many times Raul Gonzalez did howl empty threats to the media? May nangayari ba?
JayC,
Sori sa pagkakamali ko ng attribution.
chi
okay and no problem there.
one at a time ang petition.
so what is there to be happy about?
hindi tayo ginago dahil tayo ang gago?
the supreme court is true Filipino type
lahat laking utang na loob kay gloria.
Thanks but no thanks to the Supreme Court! Two years in the making yang inyong action on the playing of the Garci Tapes ang limited and vague pa ang decision. Biruin mo malalaman lang natin ang interpretation ng kanilang decision kung mayroong magpapatugtog at kakasuhan! Sige nga Vice President Guingona, over 70 yrs old na kayo pati at labas masok na kayo sa detention cells ni DOROBO. Please push the envelope one more time para malaman natin kung ano talaga ang ibig palabasin ng Supreme Court na ito (the recently appointed justices ay mga alipores ni DOROBO- Nachura was the one pushing for the CHA CHA and the other eh “GIFT” niya yung appointment niya for finding Erap guilty). How can we ever trust a Supreme Court na napasukan na rin ng mga trapos-alipores ni DOROBONG NUMERO UNONG TRAPO!
Ito mga kasama ang nakikita ko after the fall of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo:
1. GMA and FG – Delicadong maging another Nicolai Ceausescu sila, bibitayin ng taongbayan.
2. Mikey, Dado and Luli – posibleng ma-bartolina sa ISAFP stockade.
3. Ronnie Puno, Eduardo Ermita, Sergio Apostol – exiled to Ben Evardonne’s kingdom in Eastern Samar.
4. Raul Gonzales – Hindi ito patatawarin ng bayan. Bibitayin din ito.
5. Avelino Razon,Jr. – Ikukulong ito ng mga tao sa kanyang kasinungalingan.
6. Lito Atienza – Exiled to Philippine forest in Mindoro dahil din sa kasinungalingan niya.
7. Ignacio Bunyi, Dr. Anthony Golez at Atty. Manny Gaite – mangungumpisal mga ito at patatawarin ng tao.
8. Gen. Atutubo, Col. Mascarinas, Gen. Hilomen – Gugulpihin mga ito ng Magdalo dahil sa panglilinlang. Si Atutubo gugupitan ng husto para makita ang mukha.
9. Sen. Meriam Santiago – hihiwalayan ni Jun Santiago.
10. Joker Arroyo – magtatago ito at uuwi na lang sa Bicol.
11. Benjamin Abalos – Sisibakin ito ng Wack Wack at most likely, mag aabroad na lang ito.
12. Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim – magiging Chief of Staff ito, papalit kay Esperon.
13. Sen. Antonio Trillanes 111 – makakaupo rin ito bilang senador ng bayan.
14. Nini Cacho Olivares – Information minister ito ng papalit na gobyerno.
15. Jun Lozada and Joey de Venecia – mahahalal sila mga senador ng bayan.
16. Speaker Prospero Nograles – hahabulin ito noong asawa na kinatalo niya. Magtatago ito.
17. Atty. Antonio Bautista – mawawalan ng cliente ito.
Correct me if I am wrong. Itutuloy . . .
Eddfajardo, sana nga tama ang mga predictions mo. The only thing is, I want to see more of these DOROBO men to be in jail para naman matikman nila ang pinalalasap nila sa mga tao ngayon!
Kung si Gen Lim ang magiging Chief of Staff, maraming projects ang military na matutuloy. This man does not have any corruption record whatsoever. Magdilang anghel ka sana!
And Lozada and the young de Venicia will be good additions to the Senate. The young de Venicia will more than compensate for the father’s indiscretions.
PSB:
Pabayaan natin silang magkusa. Maaga pa para hikayatin silang tumakbo. Kung nauukol, bubukol sabi nga. Kaya ako mas gusto ko iyong attitude ni Susan na tumangging isulong siya sa politika na sabi naman niya ibang mundo. Kaya nga iyong anak hindi in-encourage na isulong ng partidong ipinangalan kay FPJ. Sa totoo lang naman, kahit hindi politiko puede namang magsilbi sa bayan. Ipaubaya na lang doon sa talagang may mga kakayahan ang pamumuno ng bansa at suportahan na lang sila hindi iyong pati may sira sa ulo nakakaupo sa puwesto gaya ni Gloria Dorobo o iyong Secretary of InJustice! Saklap talaga!
As a barbershop atty, I cant even say anything about this supreme court equivocal ruling. What my patron wants to hear is if they can play the tapes or listen to it over the radio for their therapeutics at least to sooth the administration madness driven into their hearts and minds all these years. How about the senate inquiry, can it listen to the tapes?
Tama ka Yuko, not everyone is cut out to be a politician!
Sinabi mo pa, PSB. I have since become an admirer and supporter for truth of Mr. Lozada. Iyan ang tunay na kagalang-galang, but I would not be one of those wanting to see him get into the pig’s pen, which is what Philippine politics is all about, until they clean it and change it into something else that will not smell of shit.
Sabi nga ng isang kaibigan ko, anybody who gets into Philippines politics, parang pumasok sa babuyan at kahit na hindi humawak sa baboy (pork barrels and all), paglabas amoy kundi mukhang baboy na rin! 😛
Have you read his prayers that he read during the mass, very touching. If only all Filipinos who love their country will hear and follow this very simple prayer, the Philippines will be great again.
Para sa siRAULong c gonzalez ng Dept Of inJustice “MAGBAGO KA NA ALANG ALANG SA BAYAN”, bago ka man lang kuhanin ni LORD sa mundong ito may magawa kang mabuti sa bayan. At sa mabunying senadora MIRIAM DEFENSOR sayang ang paghanga ko sa iyo. isa ka ring DAKILANG BALIMBING, SALOT KA NA RIN SA BAYAN.
pangalawang araw pa lang ni GMA may mga nananakot nang patalsikin siya….
so ano na ang nagawa? napatalsik ba? i dont think so. 2003 pa ang mga predictions na “malapit na”, “andyan na”….but nasaan nga ba?
the bark is worse than the bite i presume
mas bilib kami sa eleksyon
Tuwang-tuwa ka naman at hindi nga napapatalsik ang amo mong mabahong bansot. You know what? The bigger reason is the protection being given by Uncle Sam. Pumalag lang si GMA ngayon sa kagustuhan ng mga Kano…bukas na bukas talsik na siya. She can start disobeying and displeasing Amerika by asking those GIs in the south to leave immediately. Let’s see how Uncle Sam would react.
Natumbok mo Brownberry ang US lamang punot dulo ng problema ng ating Bayan. Subalit ang dikta ng kasaysayan ang umiikot lamang kung sobra ang ang kabulukan ng liderato ang US mismo ang magbabagsak sa iyo. Umaalingasaw sa kabulukan si Ate Glow.
Amoy na amoy na ng Bayan ang kanyang paglagapak….pak..pak..
ang punot dulo ng problema ng bayan natin ay tayo din.
huwag tayong mag bulag-bulagan.
basahing mabuti ang noli me tangere at el filibusterismo
marami kayong mapupulot na aral doon.
Salamat sa payo binasa ko ang Noli at Fili, maliwanag pa sa sikat ng araw ang kaanimalan ng Gobyerno na ipinatutupad ng mga tarantadong prayle. Tugma sa liderato ni Ate Glow, si FG ang prayle at ginagahasa si Maria Clara.
Nabundat na sila sa kadayukdukan, habang ang mga Katipunero ay dinudukot, tinototyur at pinapatay ng mga guwardiya sibil ni Espweron at Palpakparan. SUGOD MGA KAPATID.

kung ipagpitaganan mo ang mga paghihirap ng iyong mga katipunero sa kaliwa e talagang aping api sila, na kailangan nila ng bawat protection ng commission of human rights (kahit makakaliwa or leftists sila he he he)….
ngunit nasaan ang iyong pagngangalit pag SUNDALO ang pinahirapan at napatay ng mga NPA? ng MNLF? ng ABU SAYYAF?
nasaan ang commission on human rights pag SUNDALO ang napahirapan at napatay ng bandidong rebelde?
communism is a bankrupt ideology.
kahit USSR at TSINA na sentro ng idelohiyang ito e tinanggap na din na hindi sustainable ang communism. kaya nga gumuho ang USSR.
kung talagang hardline kang komunista- punta ka sa cuba.
Balik tayo sa isyu, ang magnakaw ng kaban ng gutom na Bayan ay masahol pa sa komunismo. Ang pag gahasa sa sagradong balota ay masahol pa sa komunismo. Ang pa awa epek sa harap ng camera “I am sorry” ay masahol pa sa komunismo. Ang pag kurakot sa Fertilizer fund para sa abang magsasaka masahol pa sa komunismo. Nasa Malacanang ang gahaman, tulisan, garapal, makapal, hayok, dayukdok ang siyang tunay na kalaban ng Bayan.
Basahin ang Fili at Noli matuto at mamulat.
