	Juan N. Babauta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Babauta was a member of the Class of 1972's National Honors Society, and he was the student body president during his senior year.
		Juan Babauta's public service career began with his election to a four-year term as Senator, serving in the fifth and Sixth Northern Marianas Commonwealth Legislature.

		Babauta either just ignored all these facts, or he blatantly kept going knowing full well that he was destroying the CNMI in the process.
		The thought of Juan Babauta ever running for any office again is just completely absurd to me. His crimes have been completely exposed now, and we all know what a terrible financial manager and Governor he was.
		If you're like me, you may have been wondering what ever happened to the newspaper that Juan Babauta said he was going to start after leaving office, or you may have gone to the college to sign up for the course that he said he was going to be teaching.

		Babauta also pointed out that the WRO is not part of the three branches of the CNMI government and is thus not governed by any of the three branches.
		Babauta said some people are making an issue out of the management letter, saying that "they are digging out dirt on Juan Babauta" since the issue first surfaced in 2000.
		Babauta's statements come on the heels of the OPA management letter, which had cited him for allegedly violating several statutes, including exceeding his budget appropriation, during his term as CNMI Resident Representative to Washington D. in 1998 and 1999.
