Respect for Arroyo Court? | Inquirer Opinion

Respect for Arroyo Court?

/ 11:03 PM January 10, 2012

The critics of President Aquino, the Integrated Bar of the Philippines and the constitutional “experts” who decried P-Noy’s “lack of respect” for the Supreme Court should read the Inquirer’s Dec. 8 editorial, specifically, its last paragraph: “Credibility, high public esteem and respect are not conferred by law. Neither do they automatically come with appointment to high office. If the justices want them, they should earn them.”

How can we the people respect this Supreme Court when it cannot even tell what “final and executory” means? When these Supreme Court justices have abandoned the interests of the state to protect the one person who appointed them to their high office?
