“Too Much Drama” by ARK


I wonder if it was scripted- the whole Chief Justice Corona walkout thing. I bet it was. And I blame it on bad timing, and poorly-rehearsed scenes.

Just yesterday, during the impeachment trial, the Chief Justice himself apparently walked out of the session hall, and reappeared later on a wheelchair. This act offended certain people, particularly the senate president Juan Ponce Enrile. The senate president felt disrespected by the way Chief Justice Corona excused himself from the trial.

Corona’s lawyers claimed that the Chief Justice experienced hypoglycemia (abnormal drop in blood sugar), caused by the fact that he had skipped his lunch.

Now the question is, is it true? Was it really hypoglycemia? Or was it staged so that the trial will be postponed until later? Well, that’s what happened anyway. The impeachment trial will resume later at 2 pm, as declared by the senate president.

I personally don’t buy it though. I believe the Chief Justice intentionally walked out and was told to fake the illness to excuse him. And that’s not good publicity- which was his original target.

He mentioned that he wanted to clear his name for all the accusations faced to him by the prosecution. Had he not walked out, his emotional appeal plan could have worked. Hey, who knows? Maybe it did work on some people… But I’m not one of them.

*sigh* Too much drama is going on right now. Too less justice is being achieved.
