i’ve read the Contractors: Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago Privilege Speech”.

i do agree with her. She is serving the most corrupt goverment all over the globe. perhaps, others laugh at her beacuse they doesnt understand what she says; but we need Miriam Defensor Santiago in our community.She is such a good lawyer and i do believe that she knows every corner of her speech.
But it is not good for the Senate to have a problem like that. Supposedly, they should have be reunited specially our economy faces global crisis.

It has become hard to believe now that – mere and pure denials from the First Gentleman – will have any purpose.

By implication, it is easier to believe that PGMA is very much into corruption however hard she impresses upon us, she was trying to give it a solution.

Corruption at the highest levels is immunity.

Miriam, having a victim of the culture of corruption in this country is not afraid to state the fact that she is serving a corrupt government.

Good thing though, despite her association with the Administration, her crusade against corruption continues leaving comments that goes to the bone of politicians.

She is to good to be true. If only something will really come out of this investigation after her committee’s recommendations, which of course, as expected, will only end up nowhere.

If only she could prosecute at the same time, perhaps we have already restored our Government.

If only she could have been president!

Miriam, in her signature oratory, knows from where she speaks.

It is hard to think whether or not Sen. Pangilinan, young that he is, could ask for some apology for the breach of elementary decency.

In the Senate, I always believe that we need a person like Miriam whose knowledge of law is somehow beyond parallel.

It is a sad day for Senate to have to hear one of their colleague complain against the act of one of their kind.

Miriam made a lot of sense.
