MEANWHILE, THE loudspeaker of the House let loose a verbal diarrhea that reeked of the stink of tyranny.
Alvarez said he would push for the removal of term limits of elected officials under the federal constitution.
Unreasoned he over DZMM: “Ganito ‘yan, kung maalala ninyo, ‘yung political dynasty na ‘yan, nangyari ‘yan nung binigyan nilang term limit ‘yung mga politiko. Nung araw, wala pang term limit, walang political dynasty. Ang naalala ko nung araw, isang politiko lang sa isang pamilya.”
In another instance, Alvarez batted for the postponement of the mid-term elections in May next year “to give time for the House to tackle the changes in the Constitution.”
At one time, Alvarez raised the zero budget bogey to local government units that would dare oppose federalism.
Alvarez makes one good reason to reject any attempt to change the Constitution now or at any other time.
