impeaching mercy

i don’t get why senators pangilinan and guingona are urging the ombudswoman to resign rather than be impeached and go to trial.   “to spare the country of this conflict” daw.   more like, to spare us the truth?   the facts?   of the cases against her?   but why?   masyado bang maraming madadamay?   but why spare them?

or is there a chance na mapapahiya lang sila, whether the lower or upper house, because they don’t have the numbers pala?

and this recommendation of senators to impeach her for the plea-bargain agreement with garcia, when there is already an impeachment process going on in the lower house for other cases — ano ‘yon?   obvious naman that that would have to wait until next year, should the ongoing one fail.   besides, merceditas says it’s for the sandiganbayanto decide the plea-bargain complaint against her, not the senate.

what’s going on, honorable senators?
