While I agree that the Quad Comm has abused its contempt powers, hindi ko pa rin mapigilan matawa sa mga DDS fanatics na biglang naging champions of human rights ngayon. From “kill, kill, kill” to human rights defenders real quick! Karma is real!!!
Members of the House should stop using parliamentary courtesy as reason to be less critical on the OP and OVP. Just admit that you don't want to offend the powers-that-be to protect your "pork barrel"! NAKAKASUKA!!!
