The biblical exhortation to be watchful and awake is so much more relevant and urgent today. @ CD, thanks very much. This will help greatly in looking into the deeper details of the debate. And thank you also for pointing me to your site. I hope to learn more about the CFC controversy, being a lapsed member although we were active for quite a number of years. @ Jessica, I agree.

Wisdom is certainly needed at this juncture by all the parties involved, and specially by the investigating committee. @ Bobbie Sabio, I'm sorry if I gave offense. I might very well be wrong and will readily admit to it. In fact, my first impression was that the good Justice was the victim of a demolition job by the administration. But it is certainly odd to have revealed the attempts to influence him over the case, which is the crux of the entire investigation, and overlook the fact that there was another attempt, this one closer to home. If it had been brought up at the time the De Borja incident was mentioned, it would have made his position all the more stronger. But you are right, I should have been there to better understand the circumstances. In any case, my opinion hardly matters to anyone and I regret any umbrage I may have caused. @ The Equalizer, so his name means wise man in Spanish ?

The PDI downright misreports every hearing. I was there. Besides, PDI could be cited in contempt for making conclusions when the panel told the media not to do so. Be that as it may, you are entitled to your wrong opinion.
