Solons dare De Lima: File 'pork' cases, don't resort to media blitz House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte, Jr. on Saturday cautioned Justice Secretary Leila de Lima not to resort to a media blitz and just file the case against the "next two batches" of lawmakers implicated in the P10-billion pork barrel scandal.

PHILSTAR: ATTY JOSE SISON - SHAM CRUSADE

In fact, one of Aquino's propagandists has practically admitted and realized what is happening in our country now. In a recent press interview, he blurted out that Aquino did not promise the people, a "rose garden" when he took over the reins of government. Apparently, this is another ploy to delude the people into believing that Aquino has not been remiss in complying with his promise.

MORE SINS OF AQUINO:
- Multi-billion pesos anomalous deals and transactions in the Department of Agriculture (DA)
- Rice smuggling under the nose of the DA-questionable awards of multi-billion projects in the DOTC and the increase in the volume of smuggling of imported goods in the Bureau of Customs.
- DOTC shady deal about the MRT trains exposed by no less than the Ambassador of the Czech Republic that has sporadically landed in the front pages of the newspapers, the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee has kept its hands off it like a hot potato.
- Aquino himself used  that pork to convince and hold sway over the Legislative Branch of our government in carrying out his wishes.

INQUIRER: NEAL CRUZ - Gloria Arroyo should be granted bail, says former law dean

Three of her alleged co-conspirators, all director of the PCSO-Manuel Morato, Rey Roquero and Jose Taruc-have been granted bail. So why can't GMA be allowed to post bail just like her alleged co-conspirators? Dean Abad asked the journalists at a press forum at Annabel's Restaurant last Saturday. That is not equal protection of the laws.

INQUIRER: NEAL CRUZ - Gloria Arroyo should be granted bail, says former law dean

In plunder, Dean Abad continued, it is not enough that the amount malversed is P50 million or more. An accused must be proven to have also benefited from the loot. What was GMA's participation in the PCSO scam? "she merely wrote 'OK' on the margin of the document proposing the intelligence fund, that's all," Dean Abad explained. Did she benefit from  the loot?
Abad: "There is no evidence, much less proof, that she did."

INQUIRER: NEAL CRUZ - Gloria Arroyo should b e granted bail, says former law dean

Here's why, according to Dean Abad: GMA is charged with plunder, which is non-bailable. But she is alleged to have conspired with officials of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) in misusing the intelligence fund of the government corporation. In a conspiracy, the guilt of all. All the conspirators must be treated equally. That is guaranteed by the Constitution-the right of all citizens to equal protection of the laws and due process.
