gma owns this specific SC.. what kind of law are you people talking about?

[tylerdurden]

So even with senators backing this current Decision, the SC is still wrong based on past mistakes?

Even Lacson said GMA can leave. You know, the Senator na kontra kaayu ni Lacson. So lets see whose words we can believe... some hatorade drinking anonymous whiner or some senator that hates GMA as much but still has a clear head on the matter?

oh yeah, right, like there's no quid pro quo going on between Lacson and the royal-PITA-couple of RP. they have the dirt on Lacson which is why Lacson fled. they're probably blackmailing him with it.

hmmm... maybe you ought to slow down on the i-kiss-ass juice yourself.

are you being sarcastic or just plain stupid?

The SC brought it on themselves. Nobody respects this court anymore. This is what happens when you say "final" doesn't really mean final in another case.

It will take the SC a long time to claw its way back out of the trash it's in. Final motions for reconsideration not being truly final, wholesale plagiarism, flipping jurisprudence, lack of respect for its own rules of court, is anyone surprised they have lost so much moral authority that the executive can now defy their orders without consequence?

The SC justices brought this on themselves. If they had conducted themselves with integrity then the people will be on their side and follow their moral compass, but people are getting sick and tired of the kangaroo decisions and games of the court. Is this a court of the land or some kind of jester's court? Don't these justices know they are being laughed at around the world? The plagiarism case alone did so much damage to the reputation of our justice system, they are already calling it the court joke of the century in other jurisdictions...

Even ang SC sa US can correct its mistake "Does it mean nga ang US SC should not be respected ?" ... and it so happen in many countries in the world not just the Philippines .....

You need to read between the lines. Lacson supporting this is a simple exercise in logic, he's covering for his own ass too, just in case he'll need the support of the PGMA-friendly Supreme Court to grant him a TRO to get out of the country again, just like he did in the past. The fact that he defied the justice system of this country by running away before he could be arrested, means his opinions regarding our justice system shouldn't be taken seriously.

And lay off the personal insults, hatorade? What the f*.. how old are you? You need to read carefully. Whether the SC is right or wrong isn't the issue I was trying to raise. What I asked is, how can the SC expect its decisions to be respected when the court itself doesn't follow its own rules nor that of the English language? Like I said, if final doesn't really mean final in another case, according to the SC itself, how can they insist that final really means final in this case? It boils down to moral authority. An institutional body that conducts itself with integrity and avoids controversy has more power than a body that has made a mockery of justice and become the butt of jokes in our region. Kasabot ka? It's about the lack of moral authority of the SC. I'm not excusing what noynoy gov is doing, I think a constitutional crisis is bad for the country but the thing is both noynoy and the SC are responsible for this.

Noynoy for defying the SC, and the SC for losing moral authority to the point that it can be defied without consequence. That's the problem.. people no longer respect the SC because they have lost the people's respect.
