Five hours! That was all it took a hundred-eighty-eight congressmen to impeach Chief Justice Renato Corona. It wasn't exactly a-blink-of-an-eye thing, but the rapidness of the the whole process has left many including myself dumbfounded. Congressmen have been known to drag it's feet when acting on noble matters. The Articles of Impeachment was transmitted to the Senate early yesterday morning. Very impressive!
Impeachment is a political proceeding. I've always believed that one should tread carefully before invoking it. Several individuals have abused it in the past. I'm glad Congress moved swiftly and beat that clown, Salvador Panelo to the draw. If you can remember, Panelo filed sham impeachment cases against former President Gloria Arroyo in the past. The cases he filed were really meant to shield Arroyo from being impeached. I'm hoping Mr. Panelo's absence becomes more permanent.
The camp associated with Arroyo and Corona reacted with antagonism; and understandably so. The concept of decency is alien to them. After years of getting their way everytime, they find themselves on the receiving end this time around; and rightly so. The same tricks they used in the past to promote their wicked ways are allegedly being used against them now. Karma? Poetic justice? Congress has always been a domicile for the most wretched fiends. A handful who signed the articles were miserable Arroyo buttlickers a few years ago. I still view most of their actions with a lot of skepticism. This recent one, I'll take it as a blessing; hopefully it won't be the last. Righteousness does have it's own infectious effects.
The Truth and Justice Express has left the first station. Anyone who stands in it's way, with the intent of impeding it's progress is roadkill. Three rats have been ran-over so far and hopefully more will follow. All aboard!
