President Aquino’s belligerent stand against the Supreme Court’s decision declaring his pet initiative, the Disbursement Acceleration Program, unconstitutional was not at all surprising considering his defense of Budget Secretary Florencio Abad, Jr. last Friday.
Reading and listening to his speech was not only appalling. It was disturbing.
It showed the lethal combination of ignorance and arrogance.
The issue is his usurpation of Congress’ power of the purse which is a violation of the Constitution and he talked about parking zones!
