Walkout

[BoyFerrari]

so what happens to the truth if they can't get the 79 signatures and the impeachment will not push through?

The 79-signature requirement is there to make sure that there are enough people who believe that the allegations are valid and have substance worthy enough to spend millions of pesos and derail many pending bills in congress just to hold an impeachment trial.

if GMA really wanted to prove her innocense, and she's always saying she will only answer all the allegations in the proper forum which is the impeachment, then why won't she just tell her allies in the congress to just sign the impeachment complaint para matapos na ang lahat?

GMA already said that she did not cheat, so in a way, she has answered the allegations already. But despite that answer from GMA, the opposition does not believe her because they only want to hear what they want to hear. And they will not stop and be satisfied until she says so.

And finally, remember that impeachment will cost the government millions of pesos, not to mention many bills in congress will be derailed as a result. That is why they are trying to avoid an impeachment if the numbers are not there. That's exactly the reason why the consititution requires a certain number to be reached before an impeachment can take place. You have to follow what the law requires. It's not just a simple "tell-us-the-truth" questioning.

one more thing Mr. BoyFerrari, if all these things against GMA are only "allegations", then i guess she really should not be there in the presidency as everything that her allies said about erap were also all just "allegations".

Arroyo became president when Erap resigned, as validated by the Supreme Court.

Why did Erap resigned? Because he was pressured by the allegations against him and because his cabinet, police, and military abandoned him.

That's EXACTLY THE SAME tactic the opposition is doing to GMA now: throw all allegations, make the cabinet resign (a.k.a. Hyatt 10), stage a dramatic walkout (make sure you throw papers in the air while walking out), incite people to rally in the streets.

GMA says she will not resign. The thing with Erap: he resigned. That's the difference.
