JUSTICE FOR THE FILIPINO PEOPLE

American President Nixon’s Watergate Scandal is just a molehill if compared to
Gloriagate Scandal in the Philippines which is a mountain. Nixon resigned when he was threatened to be impeached for covering-up an illegal break-in ordered by his campaign staff into his political opponents’ headquarters at Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C. back in the early 70s. He did it for the sake of dignity and he did win the esteem of the American people.

Gloria refused to resign and chose to stick like a leech to her position as president which is not hers despite the preponderance of evidence and testimonies of her closest aides and cabinet members proving that she cheated in the 2004 presidential elections. What is undeniably evil is that she used the Filipino people’s money earmarked for the farmers and the poor to rig the vote.

There is no need to wait for the people’s outrage and to launch another “people power” revolt. Such will be another symbol of political immaturity.

Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her criminal gangsters should be fully charged of the crimes they committed against the Filipino people in a court of law as soon as possible to prevent bloodshed. But if such legal move could be completely suppressed by the culprits, then let “fire and brimstone” from above rain on the ungodly sooner rather than later.

Remember, there is no holiday excuse for justice to win.
