Impeachment against CJ Corona..

[Monseratto]

Alam ng lawyers na you should keep your mouth shut and keep your temper in check if you're inside a court room. You are trying to win the vote of the Judges. It's like you're inside a classroom and you despise the teacher, you still need to get on her good side to pass the subject. I don't think what aguirre did made the prosecution look good to the OTHER senator judges... It's their vote that count, not the public. Brenda won't change her attitude.

Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. jested that Aguirre should be confined inside a room and compelled to watch video footage of Santiago lambasting the prosecution.

“The appropriate punishment would be to bring him inside a holding room with one television watching Sen. Santiago na minumura ang (cursing the) prosecution,” Marcos said.

I am amazed that people are still surprised when it comes to Miriam.

First, the prosecution panel are really bad in terms of presenting their case. Add to that the poorly crafted impeachment complaint and Miriam and this is what we get.

Second, we must remember only the prosecution has presented its case to the court so naturally they will get all the attention -good or bad- from Miriam, the other judges and rest of us following this trial.

Now, Miriam may have gone overboard with her lectures and use of words. But as they say, she is a judge and Aguirre is a counsel so the latter has to act according to what is expected from these lawyers.

ANC (Karen Davila) kept asking how will the senator judges who have gone "overboard" in their actions pay for their indiscretions? Probably there is an ethics committee in the senate who can handle that but I am pretty sure nothing will come out of it. But in addition, just as Enrile said before, is the voters who will judge them or who will decide if they remain a senator.

So anyone is free to campaign against any of the senators in the next election. The problem is that among the candidates we have before, we have very few who deserves a seat in the senate.

Yung mga nagrereklamo kay miriam ibig sabihin hindi nyo na sya iboboto next election? Boto nyo si trillanes, lito lapid, bong revilla.....Tapos pag nagkaimpeachment ulit wala ng salita-salita botohan na agad. hahahahahaha

[baker123]

with what aguirre did. i think the the trial will be more professional next. everyone will be checking their lines next time.

heres hoping sen mirriam or any of the judges, doesnt go on an attack mode to the prosec. which would be the reverse of what i just said.

[chua_riwap]

let's wait & see if brenda would do that also to the defense team.......

Brenda: Hoy mga gageyoh na mga prosecutors hindi pwedeng tangapin bilang evidence yang mga bank docs na yan.

Brenda: O defense ok na.

Don't count brenda out. She's even saying that the private prosec is mentally retarded in one of her interviews. Imagine that... comming from a brenda.

I'm afraid sky is the limit as far as sen judges indiscretions is concern. Wala namang pwedeng mag check sa kanila, if you're betting on senate's ethics committee... moro moro lang yan.

Practically brenda is on the loose and she can do anything she wants.

[Devastator]

I wonder if she'll her "fire and brimstone" act to the I.C.C.? I hope not.

[niky]

As Enrile says... they're the highest court in the land. Beyond reproach. This isn't the first time Miriam has used the Senate court as a soapbox from which to hurl lightning bolts at people without fear of retribution.

Don't count brenda out. She's even saying that the private prosec is mentally retarded in one of her interviews. Imagine that... comming from a brenda.

She just piles on the laughs. I think I even heard some of the reporters chuckle on camera at that one.

[niwde11]

hehhee i dont know why some people take brenda too seriously.
inaamin nya naman e na sya lang ang pwede mag grandstanding hehehehhe.

[Retz]

dapat sinemplehan na lang ni Atty. Aguirre at naglagay ng earplugs para hindi obvious.

[shadow]

Grandstanding din naman talaga ginagawa ni Mirriam eh, she's the judge Kung palpak ang prosecutors eh di mag vote siya to acquit, Ano bang pakialam niya sa mga kapalpakan ng prosecutors eh katangahan ng
Prosecutors kung ma acquit Si corona Sa kapalpakan nila...

Ewan ko kung Bakit siya masyado affected sa kapalpakan ng prosecution...

at least she doesnt deny it(grandstanding) .:D
self proclaimed papansin. :D

maybe galit lang sya sa palpak. :D or she knows a "palpak" when she see's one. :D

[CoDer]

hehhee i dont know why some people take brenda too seriously.

Well judge sya. And in the end boboto sya, pero ngayon palang target na ang prosec sa kanya. Worst is vocal sya against sa PSBank docs, pano ba yan. And I though people says Drilon was the worst senate judge.

Her tirades in the court this afternoon is unbecoming of a judge. Abay idamay ba ang mga kabataan sa UP na express lang ang opinion nila, keso magaling daw sya keso may award daw sya. Then tatawagin nya na mga gago ang mga prosec but demand that they respect her.

Nabawasan ata ang dosage ng gamot ni Brenda.

That's the point, if palpak ang prosecution Wala na siya pakialam doon, she's free to vote for an acquital...Diba?

At least for the first time meron nag in your face kay Mirriam, second Lang pala Ito first Si mommy dionisia. "malaswa!" hehehe

[kinyo]

^ mga estudyante nya kasi yung ibang prosecutors ... hindi nya matanggap palpak pagturo nya

Sabi nga ni koko pimentel regarding sa angal ni brenda, pia, at chiz... Tangapin na kasi nila na sui generis ang impeachment court.

Bat away sila ng away sa mga na withdraw na articles? Eh di acquit nila si corona sa mga article na yun. Gusto lang talagang bumanat eh.

Maraming swing votes na senators weren't impressed at aguirre's stunt...

MANILA, Philippines - Senator-judge Alan Peter Cayetano on Wednesday suggested a unique penalty for private prosecutor Vitaliano Aguirre Jr. after he was cited in contempt by Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile.

Cayetano said that for covering up his ears during a lecture by Sen. Miriam Defensor Santiago, Aguirre should be "locked up in the Senate for 1 day and forced to watch Santiago's lectures nonstop for 24 hours."

The lawmaker said he took a picture of Aguirre closing his ears during Santiago's lecture and then showed it to fellow senators.

Sen. Jinggoy Estrada then asked Aguirre to explain himself.

Cayetano said that instead of apologizing, Aguirre seemed to be taunting the court when he expressed resentment towards Santiago.

"Even if he felt that way, it's no excuse to do that before the court...He was really defiant. He couldn't see na hindi siya pina-punish about how he felt but his gestures niya and dating niya," he said.

"Maybe the best punishment for him is 24 hours pakinggan si Senator Miriam," he added.

What do you expect from them, they practically let brenda's on the lose.
