DOUBLE STANDARD, DE LIMA STYLE

Dec. 11, 2016
DOUBLE STANDARD, DE LIMA STYLE

These are excerpts from a reaction by former First Gentleman Atty.  Mike Arroyo on the trip of Leila de Lima to the US and Germany. The story is in tribune.net.ph. Since Atty. Arroyo said it all in very clear but very simple terms, I won’t be adding my own thoughts. Read carefully, guys, then judge for yourselves if you should still trust De Lima.

“Sen de Lima, when you were Secretary of Injustice, you had a hold departure order (HDO) against PGMA (then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo) even though no case was filed against her. So PGMA went to the SC (Supreme Court), which granted her a TRO (temporary restraining order) against your capricious and unlawful order.

“Now you want to leave for the US and Germany amid a lookout bulletin and your statement that there is no need for a lookout bulletin against you since you do not intend to leave. Are you planning to escape??

Mr. Arroyo added De Lima cannot simply ignore the lookout order as cases have been filed against her, unlike in the situation the former president went through.

The floor is yours, people.30
