STANDARD - EMIL JURADO - THIS COULD BE THE TIPPING POINT
Does President Benigno Aquino III realize that the Corona impeachment trial could be the tipping point of his presidency" And what if Corona is acquitted - right now likely, because 16 out of the 23 senators are needed to convict him? Malacañang has placed all its eggs in one basket by going against Corona. The flawed logic is based on the premise that if the Supreme Court is no longer controlled by Arroyo appointees, the Executive and all its lapdogs in Congress can do whatever they please. That is, assuming that Mr. Aquino remains as popular as he is right now.

Mahirap bang paniwalaan na ang isang nagtapos sa ateneo/harvard at nagtrabaho bilang abogado sa Dev't Bank of the Phil. Bise Presidente ng Commercial Bank of Manila at mataas na opisyal sa sikat na kumpanya na SGV ng 20 taon bago pumasok sa pamahalaan ay makakabili ng ari-arian tulad ng condo? At sa presyong hulugan? Isa pa, paano naman kung asawa ay mayroon ding ari-arian at mainam na trabaho bago pa nahirang sa isang gocc. Ito ang kasong pinupukol kay  CORONA. Naunahan na ng paninira sa media. Hwag tayong paloloko. Maging mapanuri.

INQUIRER - Senate Majority Leader Vicente Sotto III said Tupas' disclosure showed that "he is already violating the rules of the impeachment court. "But Sotto would not say wither Tupas could be penalized for his action. Senator Francis Escudero also said that under the impeachment rules, senator-judges were not the only ones required to refrain from making comments. "This also applies to the complainant, the respondent, lawyers and witnesses," he said in a phone interview.

INQUIRER - On Radio Veritas, some Catholic bishops said Corona was facing a "political trial." "If [the prosecutors] have a case against Corona, they must prove it, they must continue to investigate. But the public must learn to be critical and not be quick to judge because nothing has been proven yet," said Novaliches Bishop Emeritus Teodoro Bacani. Bacani reminded the public that someone who was being investigated was not necessarily guilty. Sorsogon Bishop Arturo Bastes aired a similar reminder. He said the presentation of documents suggesting that Corona had amassed illegal wealth was "a strategy" to ensure a successful impeachment.

INQUIRER - "They are really trying to demonize the Chief Justice," said cuevas, 83, a retired Supreme Court justice. "I hope I'm wrong. But there could be no motive whatsoever, except [to sway] public opinion and to portray Corona as a violator of the law and a tax evader," he said. Asked if the House prosecutors' action was tantamount to a trial by publicity, Cuevas said: "There's no question about that. Do you still question that? But it's not the general public that will decide [Corona's fate]. It's the impeachment court."

INQUIRER: senate slams house panel - "Masyado silang atat (They are took for him, to interview him. For all the "voluminous" documents of the prosecutors. "Why, would it be the media who would decide Corona's fate? So they have documents proving that Corona owned all these condo units? Present those to the Senate! The problem is that some parties seem to have a mind-conditioning agenda," Estrada added.
