now that there are a lot of news regarding "GMA RESIGN", what's your opinion?

Don't forget to vote sa poll!

Ako I want the judicial process which is impeachment.

Kasi pag nag-resign si GMA, ang papalit si "KABAYAD"!!

Kaso, kung idaraan naman sa impeachment, majority sa Kongreso kaalyado niya. No choice tayo. Resign na lang siya.

Numbers are not an excuse not to push through with impeachment. During the Estrada administration, there were only 27 opposition congressmen in the Lower House. Yet they were able to successfuly file the impeachment complaint against Erap, paving the way for the Senate to convene itself as an impeachment court.

it was because of then House Speaker Manny Villar who railroaded the proceedings

Tama!

Initially, i don't want her to resign. but with today's collapse of her cabinet, the mounting calls from the MBC,the Liberal Party, and that of Cory's. I believe she has lost the ability to govern, her initiatives would continually be challenged. So looking at the bigger picture, which is the welfare of the nation, she must resign. Either that or declare martial law (I hope not)

To Villar's credit, he also hastened the process for Erap to defend himself via an impeachment court, when the Estrada allies in Congress were dead-set on stalling the proceedings. Hindi lang nga dapat nag-walk out yung prosecution team sa Senado; we would have found out if impeachment was indeed a viable option to remove an incumbent president. Now, Erap's allies are repeating the same delaying tactics at the Sandiganbayan.

To reiterate, Erap should consider himself extremely lucky that he got as far as the impeachment court, a legal opportunity to defend himself. Which is more than can be said for the present opposition that wants not only to railroad, but bypass the entire legal process altogether. And they don't even have a common consensus as to what happens next in case GMA is out of office.
