It is
the moment of the greatest emotional variance when Sen. Poe had the audacity to
order a Senate Hearing vis-à-vis the renewal of abs-cbn franchise. The issue
draws toxic criticism in an attempt to thwart the said hearing on the ground of
conflict of interest on her part.
Nevertheless,
the abs-cbn could have poured some honey in her ear because Sen. Poe derisively
ignored all warnings as if telling the world she is one who runs to a wall for
the abs-cbn; that she’s not gonna be a wallflower; and that I’m the first to
have your back through it all.
Truly,
a treasure trove of evidence showed that Sen. Poe’s mother Susan Roces, is
working with the abs-cbn and it is such a gravamen of indecorum for her to
order the subject hearing.
Certainly,
Sen. Poe could be charged with conflict of interest. Her arrogance of mind has
had an insidious effect, for, in time, policymakers begin to believe their own
misplaced brilliance. The deception designed for the public, in the end,
becomes self-deception. They had begun to believe their own arrogant mind’s
"options," and "scenarios"; for them, reality had become
the reflection in the fun-house mirror.
Kindly
look at this; in the case of RP vs. J. C. Tuvera, et al. G.R. No. 148246.
February 16, 2007, the Supreme Court ruled as follows:
“Delicadeza
is not merely a stentorian (of a person's voice) loud and powerful.) term
evincing a bygone ethic. It is a legal principle as embodied by certain
provisions of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act. Section 3 of R.A. No.
3019 states in part:
Sec. 3.
Corrupt practices of public officers.—In addition to acts or omissions of
public officers already penalized by existing law, the following shall
constitute corrupt practices of any public officer and are hereby declared to
be unlawful:
(h)
Directly or indirectly having a financial or pecuniary interest in any
business, contract or transaction in connection with which he intervenes or
takes part in his official capacity, or in which he is prohibited by the
Constitution or by any law from having any interest.”
In sum,
the brazen relevant damning circumstances indicate the impudent abuse of power
and the detestable misuse of influence that homologously made the prohibited
Senate hearing by Sen. Poe into a reality. The law of unintended consequences
is surely in play.
