President GMA is Eyeing A Position in Pampanga

With the frequent visit of President Gloria to her hometown in Pampanga, many believes that it is in preparation for her plans to run as a Congresswoman in the province after her terms ends.

Although her spokesperson already denied indirectly her plans of running again for any position but what they assure the public is President Gloria Arroyo will step down as President next year. She is not planning to extend her term. However, there are allies of the President who are also confirming that she will be running for a position in Pampanga on 2010 national election just like the former DOJ Secretary Gonzalez.

In an interview with the Speaker of the House Congressman Prospero Nograles, he said that he is not in favor for the President to run for another position. He said the President already reached its peak of political career for becoming the President of the Philippines.

But one thing is clear right now,,, the congress (lower house) is railroading the approval of Con-Ass. Once this happens, it is now easy to change provisions in the Constitution especially the form of government. We all know that they want to have a Parliament. So, If President Gloria wins a spot in Pampanga, and became a Congresswoman, it would be easy for her to become the next Prime Minister. In this way she would be extending her term the legal way.

That's is why the people were not buying the idea of these congressmen that they are after Con-Ass to just change the economic provisions of the constitution

Chief Justice Reynato Puno on Hot Seat

The political issues in the Philippines is unending. You can hear and see in the news various issues not just from our trapos or traditonal politicians but even in other branches of government specially the judiciary.

The Highest Court is again tested for its credibility and impartiality. It started with the allegations of a businessman named Biraogo who accused the Chief Justice of meddling in a election related case. The man said that Chief Justice Reynato Puno ignored a previous decision of the justices about the "Limkaichong Case". The decision states that Rep. Limkaichong is not a filipino citizen, a chinese therefore is not entitled to hold a public position.

Others would say that it is not about the Limkaichong Case but they are after the ouster of the Chief Justice. This is in connection with the alledge extension of the term of the President. If the Chief Justice would be out of the Highest Court of the land, it would be easier for the GMA allies to put a puppet in the Supreme Court.

It would be easier for them to manipulate the supreme court which is also against any move to amend the Constitution and the extension of the term of the current President.

In connection with these issues, the Chief Justice calls on the administration and the religious leaders to take an active role in "redirecting the destiny" of the country as it as suffering from moral decadence. Malacañang and CBCP welcomed this call by the Chief Justice.

Ping Lacson, who is also eyeing for the Presidency next election urges the Chief Justice to run for the Presidency. Lacson told reporters that he is willing to sacrifice his bid for the Top Position if Puno would be interested to run as President. This would help the country unite and achieve the necessary changes needed by the country.

As of this moment we still don't know what will be the ending of this story, would it be for the person who is for the truth or those people who are trying to ruin the justice system of the Philippines.
