Open Letter to PNoy

Dear Ab-Noy,

Please listen carefully.  This is a reaction to your most recent press conference.  I will dumb things down for you because I am somewhat of a genius when it comes to Political Law. I plan to someday write a book called "Political Law for Dummies" at ibabato ko sa ulo mo ang autographed copy mo. I won't even need to cite a boring provision of the Constitution to explain why you're wrong on so many levels.

This is me, a school boy, schooling the President of this joke of a country. You should really hire me, you know. I'll save you from the embarrassment that happens everytime you open your mouth.

Beyond the not so complicated Constitutional provision that you can't seem to grasp are the underlying reasons why what you insist is 'right' is actually wrong:

1. The Constitution is the fundamental law of the land. 

It was established under the premise that its rules are for the good of the people. Yes, your bosses who you don't seem to listen to. Therefore, anything that goes against it will lose. Say bye bye to your Admin Code defense, even if your mother created that back she had legislative powers as the President during the Freedom Constitution. That's like an ex-girlfriend, wag mo nang ipilit yan.

 2. The country is called a "Republic" for a reason. Hence, the following characteristics:

A. A characteristic of being a Republic is that "We are a government of law, and not of men." Ano ba ibig sabihin niyan? It means it does not matter who you are or how good your intentions may be, you follow the damn law. No person is above the law. The law gave you the powers, and you cannot act beyond it.

Why is this important? It's to prevent those in power from acting arbitrarily and for personal reasons, no matter how noble the intentions are. If you don't see the danger of allowing laws to be bent for what you feel is "right", how can you tell where you will draw the line? The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Your daang matuwid is starting to look like hell.

B. Another characteristic is called "Separation of Powers", which is intended to prevent a concentration of authority in one person or group of persons. Yes you, I'm talking to you. Napapanot ka na sa tigas ng ulo mo, ayaw mo parin makinig.

Under the Doctrine of "Separation of Powers", there's a principle called "Check and Balance" as well. This is to prevent you, from encroaching on the jobs of Congressmen, and the Courts, your co-equal bodies. Somehow you manage to usurp the "Power of the Purse" of Congress, and are now attempting to do the job of the Supreme Court in interpreting the law.

Congress is like your wife, it asks you to bring home the bacon through taxes, and tells you how it should be spent. That's why it's called "Power of the Purse". Why would you take your wife's purse? Bakla ka ba? Di yan bagay sayo.

C. A third characteristic you've violated is the principle of "Accountability". In a nutshell, it means that public office is a public trust. Hence, every person working in the government shall be liable for their wrong doings. As the President, you are impeachable. How can you now be impeachable when you hold the Senate(the people who have the power to impeach you) by their balls?

Due to your DAP, you were able to oust the Chief Justice by secretly bribing the Senate. Now you can't be impeached because the very people who have that power were paid by the same money. In summary, you managed to violate the "Separation of Powers" by stealing your wife's purse and have thrown away "Accountability" because you bribed those who can punish you. Nasabihan ka ng mali yun, ayaw mo pa makinig. Sir, that is pride sir. Deadly sin yan. Magagalit si baby Jesus.

Now whether or not your acts are actually grounds for impeachment is something we can argue about another day. But just a personal opinion, yes, you culpably violated the Constitution(heller, nagfile ka ng bill to prevent GMA from doing what you're doing now, so obviously you know it's not allowed),bribed Congressmen, promoted graft and corruption, and betrayal of public trust(favoritism towards Abad, tyrannical abuse of authority). You Napoles-coddling-minion-looking President, you.

If you were an actor, you'd be Robin Padilla. #medyobadboy

Gets mo na bakit bawal? I didn't even need to cite that provision of the Constitution that you blatantly violated. Repeat after me: "DAP is bad. It is not good" Yaaaay! Bigyan ng jacket... Straight jacket.
