Supreme Court's Decision on Neri

The senators are up in arms with the latest decision of the supreme court about the issue of executive previlege envoked by Neri during the Senate investigation on NBN-ZTE Deal Scandal. The Supreme Court voted 9 - 6 in favor of Secretary Neri. Can these senators do something to compel Neri to take the witness stand again?

This can be considered a great victory of MalacaƱang against its political opponents. At least the President can take a rest and probably stop worrying for a moment. This would at least stop the pressure on his cabinet secratary in divulging to the senate inquiry what he really knows about the ZTE-NBN Deal.

And of course Sec. Neri is lucky to have the Supreme Court's decision to favor him. We just hope that the supreme court justices dicided based on law not based on affiliation. Like for example the newly appointed justice who favored with the decision.
