Noynoy wants 3-strike rule vs Cabinet appointments

From the Malaya:

SEN. Benigno Aquino III has filed a bill that would stop the president from re-appointing cabinet members bypassed thrice by the Commission on Appointments, saying it frustrates the constitutional mandate of the appointments body.

"The act of the President in successively re-appointing by-passed nominees is a clear mockery of the mechanism enshrined in our fundamental law," Aquino said.

He added: "The intent of the framers of the Constitution in creating the Commission on Appointments was to provide an effective check and balance mechanism between the executive and legislative branch of the government."

I think what the Arroyo administration is doing is illegal. Appointing officials to cabinet positions that fail to get confirmed, like Raul Gonzales and Angelo Reyes.

Doesn't Arroyo get the message? If her boys don't get confirmed, don't bother re-sending them back to the CA. This three-strike rule is not necessary. Kung marunong lang sumunod sa Rule of Law ang administration na ito...
