Impeachment of Corona
The impeachment of Chief Justice is not undermining the judiciary.
Separation of powers of three branches of government does not mean (any branch is) untouchable. The impeachment of Renato Corona as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court – is a move by Congress within the framework of the Philippine Constitution. This is an exercise of democracy calling for accountability of public trust.
Chief Justice Renato Corona was put on trial for interfering in the prosecution of former President and now Pampanga Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Corona silence is now over and he is playing into political rhetoric by accusing President Benigno Aquino III as a dictator during his privilege hour on Wednesday, December 14, 2011 at a gathering of Supreme Court employees and sympathizers.
