Prelate to Palace: Read the people's judgment

Lingayen-Dagupan Archbishop Oscar Cruz has urged Malacañang to look at how the public expressed outrage over the alleged corruption and abuse in the government's $329.48-million National Broadband Network project with China's ZTE Corp.
"The Court of Public Opinion has already formed a judgment. They require no documentary evidence which can be in fact manufactured. The general public highly appreciates credible individuals and simply uses common sense in firmly deciding who are truthful and who are liars,
who are upright and who are corrupt 'to the bones,'" Cruz said.
He claimed the national leadership was already "beyond redemption" from its moral bankruptcy.
"The hour of final decision has come—a decision which the key government official with the conspirators devoid of conscience have to make or will be made by the people for them," he said.
Cruz said that except for certain Malacañang favorites, beneficiaries, and some individuals "wallowing in dirty money", there was a continuously growing number of people "who were neither amused much less patiently receptive of one big and dismaying government scandal
after another."
"Long and deeply buried in a huge pile or rotten and rotting garbage, the ruling administration has become one big living infection already immune to remedial sanitation," he said.
According to Cruz, many young and old people alike are already fed up with the "behavioral brazenness" of the ruling government.
"There are groups of individuals among the professionals and business people, in the academe and work force, among the employees and laborers, who are appalled at the gross misdeeds eventually appended to the incumbent national leadership," he said.
"Add hereto practically all the members of the Fourth Estate who know only too well about the many flagrant socio-moral liabilities of the de facto sitting Chief Executive—and the over-all scenario becomes morally suffocating," he added. - GMANews.TV
