VP NOLI’S STATEMENT RE ISSUE OF IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS AND RALLIES (Released on September 6, 2005):
Let me reiterate my support for the search for the truth through peaceful, legal & constitutional means. With the present communications technology, the people have actually become witnesses to a constitutional proceeding to determine the truth. As the ultimate repository of the nation’s sovereign will, the people will themselves be the final judges if the cause of truth has been justly served.
I call for sobriety & prayerful discernment as the people exercise their democratic rights. I believe that the free and proper exercise of one’s constitutional rights will only serve to strengthen our democracy.

Sitting on the fence? Giving signals to anyone? For a sophomore, the VP sure acts like a tradpol – keeping his options open.
Funny he is very meek. For de Venecia to say that GMA is still the best option (in your dreams, Yoda) is an INSULT to the VP. Turn the other cheek? You bet!
JDV’s position is a valid question that everyone is asking. Who’s best to replace her? But I think that is not the right question.
