Has "The Cat" used up all of her 9 lives?

GMA has survived scandal after scandal and also several impeachment complaints. She's the ultimate cat woman with nine lives, me thinks. But could she have used up all of her 9 lives by now? Could her excellency still survive this scandal?

As gruesome as the ZTE-NBN scandal is, the fact that it is the people around GMA and not exactly the President herself who were directly implicated in the scandal could be buffer to her fall. But I think there is another scandal that must be noted here, which is the way that Lozada was "hidden" by the administration and the claims that the military were involved in his being hidden. The allegations of interception of radio/text correspondence, kidnapping, coercion, threats etc., all with the conspiracy of the military, of which GMA is the commander-in-chief--these directly implicate her in the fiasco.

I was particularly alarmed at J-Lo's narration that his "escorts" could hear the Senate people's correspondence and in fact had intercepted J-Lo's SOS text to his brother. This strikes at the very core of the people's privacy and security, matters we had gambled and lost during the Marcos' Martial Law era and which we dare not lose again. Perhaps these could be the pits on which she shall stumble.

But the success of a potential impeachment complaint is still quite dim. Slippery scumbags are hard to catch, and this cat may have just one more life left--enough to keep her alive until 2010.
