From Dean Jorge Bocobo: Ombudsman Junks Supreme Court Decision
ABSCBN 10:00 News reports that Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez has cleared Chairman Ben Abalos and the rest of the Commission on Elections of all liability in the matter addressed by the following January, 2004 Supreme Court Decision, which she has in effect JUNKED (along with their own previous Resolution):
.....
From the sounds of the Ombudsman's 52 page decision, she's now lawyering for the very people the Supreme Court condemned in the above -- by repeating the very arguments rejected by the Court in its original decision. How can it be that the Supreme Court has voided a contract for the nation's automated elections system, charging the Comelec with grave abuse of discretion and other crimes and misdemeanors, and yet the Ombudsman declines to prosecute any of the principal accused?
All I can say is...We must withdraw consent to be so misgoverned, or bear our chains in abashed silence!
Yes, tarantadong desisyon ito.
OTOH, the US government, Arroyo's benefactor, seems to like what it sees in Arroyo's Ombudsman that it even provided millions of dollars in financial aid (thru the MCA) just recently to help Arroyo "fight corruption" daw.
Merceditas gutierrez going after the corrupt big fish within the administration? What a laugh.
You might as well give that money to Raul Gonzalez's DOJ, Ms Kenney and pray to god it doesn't get "Bolante'd" in their anti-opposition este... anti-corruption campaign.
