Retired Chief Justice Hilario Davide is moving heaven and earth to assume the post of permanent representative to the United Nations.
Like what he did on Jan. 20, 2001, when he trampled upon the Constitution to install power grabber Gloria Arroyo into the presidency, he is trashing again the law again just to be able to live it up in New York.
Last Sunday, in the margins of the East Asia summit in Cebu, Davide took his oath as Philippine permanent representative to the UN even if his nomination has not yet been confirmed by the Commission on Appointments.
