Array ( [results] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [ArticleID] => 289112 [Title] => Principles are for people who can afford it [Summary] => The late sugar-baron Don Alfredo "Peding" Montelibano once told us, "Principles are for people who can afford it." What that could actually mean is people in the lower classes of society just want to make a decent living. They dont really care much about abstractions such as politics and constitutional changes. As an example a friends driver told him he couldnt care less about impeachment or resignation because what was important is to earn a living so he could afford to feed, clothe, and educate his five children.

Many don?t even want to talk about the legality of the impeachment case filed against Chief Justice Hilario Davide. Both sides may have their own points. But the timing totally stinks. I was told there are plans to convene another parliament of the streets, but this time the hotheads of People Power II will go against the hotheads of People Power III.
