Kaban ni D_BystandeR: NAGPADAYON ANG SARSUYLA SA SENADO

You seem to suggest that you are seriously following how the SBRC inquiry was conducted by its operators: Trillanes, Cayetano and Koko Pimentel. But what surprises me is how in the world was it able to escape your keen observation the manner in which the SBRC operators, if it is their own witness presented like former Vice Mayor Ernesto Mercado, it looks like he was given a red carpet treatment to go on with his accusation even if there was no strong evidence to support his claim while the witnesses who appeared in behalf of the Binays, they are treated like criminals and were obviously harassed and given questions which are beyond the normal and courteous way not to demonize the witness. Do you think VP Binay is so dumb to submit himself to the kind of SBRC operators out to insult and harass him?  When Senate President Franklin Drilon attended the Blue Ribbon Committee inquiry to clarify a question about an overpriced big construction project in Iloilo City, all the Liberal Party allies were there and they seemed to express "alleluia" in chorus whenever Drilon says something to prove his point. And he was given all the courtesy expected from people conducting the inquiry. It is a far cry from what Trillanes and Cayetano used to do to insult and harass those witnesses appearing in behalf of Binay. And as a matter of fact only one opposition senator was there, Senator Nancy Binay, perhaps to project a decent kind of inquiry where even the question of a neophyte senator cannot overcome the odds that was there where everybody was very friendly and courteous to Drilon. If VP Binay was there in that situation,  do you think he will come out alive when the majority of those present were from  the ruling party? I cannot blame Binay for not showing anything to glorify the SBRC inquiry. It was all a sham!
