COMELEC BEST PROOF OF HYPOCRISY, LAWLESSNESS

Summing it all up, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) has just proven itself as the BEST PROOF OF HYPOCRISY AND LAWLESSNESS of the PNoy Government.

Totally ignoring legal questions on its PREMATURE PROCLAMATIONS, the Comelec declared the final three winners in the senatorial elections.

Even though the canvass of the votes cast has NOT BEEN COMPLETED, as CLEARLY MANDATED by the Supreme Court and Section 20 of Republic Act No. 9369, or the Amended Automated Election System Law of 2007.

LAWLESSNESS because as I had cited in a previous blog, renowned election lawyer Romulo Macalintal noted that in the case of Mutuc vs Comelec, the Supreme Court decided that an incomplete canvass is illegal and cannot be the basis of a subsequent proclamation,

And that “without including the (uncounted) votes in the proclamation is disrespectful of the returns and in effect disenfranchise the voters.”

The election watchdog Legal Network for Truthful Elections (Lente) poll pointed out that Section 20 provides that the certificate of canvass, which is to be considered as official election results and which will be used as the basis for the proclamation of a winning candidate, should only be produced upon completion of the canvass.

Comelec Chairman Sixto Brillantes and his boys DID NOT, AND HAVE NOT BOTHERED, to answer these issues. Nor have they cited any LEGAL JUSTIFICATION for their action up to now.

The Comelec issued a resolution on May 16 allowing the use of grouped canvass reports for its premature proclamation of wining senators.

But Macalintal under the law, Comelec resolutions take effect only seven days after their publication. And it’s been only three days since that resolution was issued.

LUBUSANG BINALE-WALA ni Brillantes at ng Comelec ang BATAS. KUNG ANO ANG GUSTO NILA (o ng kung sinumang panginoon nila), GINAWA NILA.

If this isn’t LAWLESSNESS, I would welcome any DETAILED rebuttal.

And I say HYPOCRISY because PNoy, and his mouthpieces in Malacanang, HAVE NOT QUESTIONED the premature proclamations of the winning senators.

BIGLANG NAGING BULAG AT BINGI si PNoy, ang spokesman niyang si Edwin Lacierda at alalay nitong si Abigail Valte, si Ricky Carandang at lahat ng kanilang mga katribo.

LANTARANG PAGBALE-WALA na sa batas ang ginawa ng Comelec.

Pero kapag kalaban, LAHAT SILA, PATI NA MGA KAKAMPI NILANG SENADOR AT CONGRESSMAN, ay may KANIYA-KANIYANG SINASABI.

Invoking PNoy’s totally abused ‘tuwid na daan’ cliché to the max.

‘Tuwid na daan’ my ass. KAPAL NG MUKHA TO THE MAX, and I mean every letter \of it.

God have mercy on our country.  30
