Tatad wants Senate to stop ‘Plan B’ if CJ acquitted
By Charlie V. Manalo 01/26/2012Former Sen. Francisco “Kit” Tatad yesterday said the Senate must do something to stop the plan of the 188 congressmen to bring the impeachment trial to the grassroots in the guise of an information drive saying this could be part of the Aquino administration’s “Plan B” should Supreme Court Chief Justice (CJ) Renato Corona is acquitted.

"“What smoke and mirrors tricks are they talking about? Ano naman ang magiging laban ng defense team sa kanila in terms of information or disinformation eh nasa kanila na ang mainstream media,” Tatad said.
Lawyer Tranquil Salvador, spokesman for Corona’s defense counsel, said the plan of the 188 lawmakers to bring the weeklong Senate trial “directly to the countryside by kicking-off a grassroots campaign to explain all eight impeachment charges” is a direct violation of the rights of the Chief Justice.
"“The Chief Justice is entitled to a fair trial, not a trial by publicity,” Salvador said. “With their planned action, which is contemptuous, they are now indirectly admitting they have a weak case against the CJ. They don’t know how to present the case, nor to package the charges,” Salvador said."
Plan B, B.. as in.. Bading.
