Finally found the full footage from the Estrada impeachment proceeding when Senator Raul Roco reminding Senator Miriam Santiago of the quote by Dean George Malcolm himself about the business of law, which resulted in a fit from Sen. Santiago. (c) GMA News

The only realization I had with this clip is that how the fuck did we get here? Senators back then were highly respected and admired due to their grit and wisdom. What we have now are just a bunch of clowns. Nakakaputangina

People gave MDS way too much credit. Some of her Senate peers were better than her. She loved grandstanding, and that's what captured people's attention.

"The business of a law school is not sufficiently described when you merely say that it is to teach law or to make lawyers. It is to teach law in the grand manner, and to make great lawyers."

Erratum: Not a quote from Dean Malcolm, but the words engraved along Malcolm Hall

So much respect for the senators way back then. Unlike ngayon, puro murahan,ang daming tumatayong senators pag umiinit na ulo, kinacut ang mga nagsasalita. Naghahamunan ng kung ano ano. Puro drama wala namang mga alam sa batas. Nakakainis. Kawawa tayong Pilipino. 😭

Nabara ni Roco si Miriam. Sa inis ni Miriam binaling nya ang kanyang inis sa audience.. May their souls rest in peace.

Senators back then are educated, and we'll-versed. Di gaya ngayon puros payaso. Sinayang din ng tao yang si Raul Rocco.

I used to be a fan of MDS, but the moment she chose BBM as VP during the 2016 elections—boom, instant cringe. From pedestal to basement in record time. eeew eeew ka!

back when the senate still had an ounce of dignity and professionalism

never voted for miriam.pikon pro erap and pro bbm

I remember this scene clearly and I was so satisfied that I have consistently voted for Raul Roco for whatever position he ran for. I remember MDS to be a Marcos enabler.

NAPIKON ng bongga si madam kasi nasupalpal🤭

Napahiya si MDS sa sinabi ni Sen. Roco. And she handled it by redirecting her ire to those poor 3 people in the audience. Pinagdiskitahan ba. Goes to show that MDS isn't wise and mature as many Filipinos thought her to be. Damimg nabudol na Pinoy sa bombastic grandstanding nya.

Salbahe dito şi Miriam Santiago but Senator Roco put her in her place.

It’s funny. So this is how she would rant when her ego was hurt. Lol. She used her intelligence to bully those people instead of responding to sen roco. I would love to see a debate

Nakkamiss yung ganitong senate dati!!! D tulad ngyon parang circus, bungol yung iba at dugyot!!! Eme

Miriam is trapo just like everyone else. Di ko bet nung pinaalis nya sa gallery during Estrada impeachment trial sina Dante Jimenez of VACC with 2 other women. Wala namang ginagawa yung 3. She was just power tripping.

I respected miriam until she paved the way for a marcos return. I dont believe any politician is clean now. Its just a show really. At the expense of the filipinos.

In terms of brain, she def has it. But her morals are questionable.

Mukhang pera din itong ilongga na ito. Marcos enabler.

Supported her because of her brains, I’d rather have her intellect than the likes o f the present senators any day.

I wonder if this is the same session where miriam went ballistic because Sen Roco was 'winking' at her? Lol... I really don't get how miriam fooled so many people that she was anti-corruption when she aligned herself with erap, gma, then bbm

Tapos ngayon 3/4 mga bobo na senador.

nakakamiss ang panahong hindi mga ugok ang mga senador.

Santiago was also a tuta of Estrada. She is not what she portrayed herself to be!!

Back when MDS was an enabler of corruption

Amazing former Senators Raul Roco and Miriam Santiago. 💯👏👏👍👍💪💪 Sadly, we don't have Senators like them now! 🙄😏🤬 We only have a Senate that is a circus, full of puppies and clowns!! 🎯💯🙄😏🤬👿🐊🤑💪💪🤬

Oh how I miss Roco,

Nakakamiss yung ganitong senate. Yung may alam sa batas Yung mga senador

Miriam with all due respect is full of bullshit and you laud her for? She sounds “matalino” but in here papansing tunay na may “alam” sa batas…

Rowena Guanzon is a protege of MDS. Parehas sila nabuwang nung hindi nakuha yung inaasam na posisyon. Deja vu.

Santiago was among those who voted to exclude evidence that would allegedly prove that the President Estrada owned several secret bank accounts that were used to launder protection money collected from gambling lords.

nung matatalino pa mga Senador

Nabara kaya binalingan ang audience 😅😅😅

I remember voting for Senator Roco for president. He could have done a brilliant job leading this country.
