Double victory MR. EXPOSE Amb. Ernesto Maceda 01/21/2010 The Comelec decision dismissing three petitions to disqualify President Estrada and the Supreme Court decision throwing out The Vanguard petition also to disqualify him should now debunk the black propaganda of the Nacionalista and Liberal camps that Erap will be disqualified or will withdraw from the 2010 presidential race. I am optimistic that with these two decisions, Erap’s survey ratings will now increase by 8 to12 percentage points. Note that the Senate committee of the whole report is inflicting damage on Manny Villar and the votes that he will lose will most probably transfer to Erap.....

Church faulted for prior restraint BLURBAL THRUSTS Louie Logarta 01/21/2010 In legal parlance, the term “prior restraint” is used to encapsulize a situation wherein the state employs its vast powers to prevent communications (usually in the newspapers or stories written in media) from reaching their intended audience, which is the public. In short, it’s what’s known as censorship. It was coined many, many years ago in the United States to describe recurring incidents where the government stepped in, citing some excuse or another, to stop the publication of a story which was based on a specific document or the document itself.....

Legal but immoral By Ronald Roy COMMENT 01/21/2010

Legal but immoral By Ronald Roy COMMENT 01/21/2010 It is shocking that no less than the Philippine Constitution Association (Philconsa) has given its imprimatur to Malacañang henchmen’s damnable position that their benefactress Gloria Arroyo has the power to appoint — without a recommendation from the Judicial Bar Council — the Chief Justice (CJ) of the Supreme Court (SC) in the last 90 days of her term.
