We have different history, culture and outlook. Now, if you say that US amended their constitution 22 times already, tayo hindi lang sa amendment. You are well verse of the US constitution, you should also know how many times the Philippines change its constitution. <br /><br />Ito ang isa pa coming from the late Max Soliven: <br /><br />"Once more, however, I think he’s (Speaker JDV) run out of time. There is no quick-fix for what ails us. There is no magic leap from Presidential to Parliamentary within the calendar set by Malacanang and Speaker Joe themselves. If I had my druthers, we’d go through the process of amending or redoing our admittedly defective 1987 Constitution through the difficult but more valid method of electing a Constitutional Convention. The old way’s the proven way".<br /><br />It's very clear that you're only after the the abolition of the senate because we can't afford P200 million pork barrel alloted to each of them. So be it. But in the right manner as suggested by the late Max Soliven. No quarrel with that. Everything should be settled as rationale men should do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34770159.post-8342795972823000582006-12-12T11:41:00.000+08:002006-12-12T11:41:00.000+08:00From another Anonymous:

Pero ito ang punto at katotohanan and there are many who share the same sentiments: <br /><br />CBCP spokesman Msgr. Pedro Quitorio: "These people (administration) do not get the point. The point is people do not trust them.
