Not only for the DISGUSTING ILL-PREPARATION they admitted to in the second day of the trial, but more importantly for the ARROGANCE they showed.
As you probably saw or heard for yourselves, ladies and gentlemen:
The prosecution disregarded their OWN RANKING of the articles of impeachment by asking to present proof for article no. 2, the alleged ill gotten wealth of Chief Justice Renato Corona, instead of no 1, his supposed partiality to former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo in Supreme Court decisions.
The prosecution SHAMELESSLY and directly admitted they’re NOT READY for article no 1.
MORE THAN A MONTH after hurriedly transmitting the articles of impeachment to the Senate for trial, here they are saying THEY’RE NOT READY!
If this is not PATHETIC INCOMPETENCE – going to a trial without your evidence for the issue to be tackled -- then the prosecution probably thought they could do anything and get away with it.
And to add insult to injury, the prosecution only had COMPUTER-GENERATED, but supposedly authentic, titles and other similar documents as proof of the alleged-ill gotten wealth of Corona
No one was with them to authenticate the documents.
They had planned to tackle the titles first but nobody had the COMMON SENSE to bring along the witnesses, even though they ADMITTED that they knew the documents had to be authenticated.
The prosecution even had the nerve to put the blame on the issuance of subpoenas to their witnesses, which was done only earlier that morning.
And yet, in their briefing to reporters after the trial, the prosecution still boasted that they had over 100 authentic documents which they could have presented had the authenticity not been questioned.
Meaning, since they themselves said these are authentic, the impeachment court should have taken their word for it. As if saying, their word is Gospel-truth.
Even without the authenticating officers.
If this is isn’t arrogance, somebody supply me with a more appropriate word and explanation.
If this is the caliber of the prosecution, we may be heading for a monumental waste of the Senate’s precious time and resources (our taxes) in the Corona

ALAN CAYETANO IS FOR IMPEACHMENT PROSECUTION
TOM’S CUTE DAW
It is not surprising why Cayetano would like to be one of the lawyers of the prosecution. He wants to be reelected in 2013.
It is quite clear that he is so good in grandstanding as free publicity for his own interest.

Hintayin na lang natin ang results ng impeachment. Let the people talk. After all, the power of government wrests in them, not on a piece of paper which is the Constitution. Let us not be legalistic about the process. It’s the same law that the criminal and the judge will use.

Obviously, my friend!

It’s too obvious. Lucky siya, wala si Sen. Miriam!
YURI MEDIAVILLO
Naging ninong ng prosecution si Cayetano!
ALEX VERSOZA of Quezon City
Can he be trusted?

Halata nga, sir.

He’s for the pork at any cause!

Kilala ang mga Cayetano dito sa Taguig na supporters ng yellow admin.

Siguro playing safe ang magkapatid. One is for the defense, the other for the prosecution.
EXPECT UNFAIR REPORTING FROM ABS-CBN
OPHELIA GALORPORT of Malaybalay, Bukidnon
Matagal na akong boycott sa ABS-CBN!
VELZKI FRAULINZ
ABS-CBN, nagpapakita ng partiality. Nakakagalit ang report ni Linda Jumilla. Let us boycott Abs-CBN!
WORLD BANK DISOWNS ANTI-CORONA REPORT
VIOLY MORATO of San Mateo
I believe that justice and truth shall prevail. Nangyari lang ito dahil siguro sa vengeance sa decision ng SC na ipamahagi sa farmers ang Hacienda Luisita.

The question we must ask in order to determine whether or not Renato Corona should remain as Chief Justice is this: Is he a midnight appointee or not? We must expect that his answer is in complete conformity with the Constitution. Then we need no longer worry about the biases of ABS-CBN, GMA, PDI, and the rest of media.

Magpakita ka ng dangal sa sarili mo. Pakita mong magaling ka sa pamamagitan ng patas na laban. Hawak mo na ang pinaka-mataas na posisyon ng bansa, hawak mo na kongreso, media at sinasabi mong kaming masa, bakit pati ang hudikatura ay gusto mong hawakan? Siguro, pati anino mo ay pinagdududahan mong hindi kampi sa iyo.

Someone stole the report means that report exists and was unofficially released. What we are after is the truth, and the truth will set us free. Forget about technicalities, because that will prevent the truth from coming out. 30
