The impeachment complaint that was filed in the house of representative a moth ago by a private lawyer was overwhelmingly defeated in the justice committee by a vote of 15-1 early this morning. The congressional allies of the president prevented the impeachment complaint from getting into the next round for possible deliberation and debate that would cause too much politicking, bickering and threatened the seat of power of President Gloria Arroyo. The congressmen who voted and put to rest the impeachment complaint argued that the said complaint was insufficient in form or substance. According to the committee chair- who is a staunch supporter of the president- the three pages impeachment complaint lack the necessary information or basis to accuse the president of any wrongdoing but clearly it was all hearsay. Again the president was saved by her allies and the one year ban of filing impeachment against the president is now in effect, totally protecting the president from another scary and disturbing impeachment complaint. Maybe the oppositions and the people in general will have to endure the remaining years of Mrs. Arroyo and wait for her exit come 2010.
