Despite a hectic schedule, I thought I had an obligation to observe the debates last Tuesday at the House Committee on Justice over the merits of the second impeachment complaint against the President. I presumed it might be educational for a professional observer of Filipino politics.


I presumed wrongly. The whole thing was a waste of time.


The opposition had a year to prepare a tight impeachment complaint. They came up with a lousy one – a complaint dazzling only because it had so many leaps in logic.

                    [Summary] => When you read in the newspapers that the Senate has no more time to debate constitutional reform, don’t believe it. Go to the Senate on Roxas Boulevard and see for yourself to know what they mean there is no more time. If  the senators were more serious about their work they would put the issue ahead of all else. We would not need a miracle to get it done. All it needs is the will to do so.
