Resign? Impeach? People Power?

These are the thoughts that have come to me in face of the current political crisis.

Erap (as expected) said that Cory's call not to resort to people power was the height of political hypocrisy since she herself was catapulted to power through people power.

• Response: Resorting to people power again is one too many. It leads to political instability, which is bad for the economy. And who suffers most? The poor of the land. Cory was right.

If Gloria resigns, who will take over? Noli? Omigosh! Erap? Heaven forbid! Who? To me Gloria is the lesser of the two evils. But they respond: "Is it possible that among the 85 million Filipinos there is no one capable of being president?

• Response: Give me a name...if you can.

Did Gloria steal the elections? One bishop said that after the 2004 elections the CBCP had a meeting and they were asked if in their diocese the cheating was so bad that the will of the people was subverted. The answer was that this happened only in Cotabato and Basilan.

On July 8 the priests of the Archdiocese of Manila will come together with Archbishop Rosales in order to discuss the current political crises. Next week the CBCP will meet also on the same issue. I will wait so that I will be guided by these two meetings.
