Excited ngayon ang mga Amerikano para sa inauguration ni Barack Obama bilang 44th na presidente ng United States of America.
Live mamayang hatinggabi o baka abutin na ng ala-una ng umaga ang Obama inauguration.Makasaysayan ang pagka-presidente ni Obama. Siya ang unang itim na presidente ng America kung saan maraming dekada ang nakaraan, hindi makaboto ang mga itim. Hindi nga sila makakain sa restaurant na kinakainan ng mga puti. Kahit sa pag-ihi, hindi sila maaring gumamit ng palikuran na gamit rin ng mga puti.
Kung isipin mo ang sitwasyon ng mga itim noong unang panahon, talagang hindi kapani-paniwala na ang manunumpa ngayon ay isang batang itim na presidente. Talagang makasaysayan ang araw na ito para sa Amerika.
Ang pagka-panalo ni Obama bilang presidente ay nagpapakita kung gaano kahanga-hanga ang Amerika bilang bansa. Ito rin ay nagpapakita na buhay na buhay ang demokrasya sa kanila.
Hindi lamang mga milyun-milyung Amerikano ang natutuk sa kanilang TV para manood sa panunumpa ni Obama. Bilyun-bilyun na taon sa buong mundo.
Inaabangan ng lahat nag pag-upo ni Obama dahil sa krisis pang-ekonomiya na dinaranas ngayon ng Amerika na kumalat na rin sa ibang parte ng mundo. Sinasabi na ni Obama na malaking trabaho ang nahaharap sa kanila at hinahamon niya ang mamamayang Amerikano na samahan siya sa paghanap ng lunas ng kanilang problema.
‘Yan ang maganda ngayon sa kanila. May lider sila na kanilang pinagkakatiwalaan at nakaka-inspire o nakabigay-buhay.
Malaking bagay ang pagka-panalo ni Obama ang maraming kapalpakan sa administrasyon ni George W. Bush. Ang paglusob sa Iraq gamit ang kasinungalingan na weapons of mass destruction daw. Wala naman silang nakita. Natanggal nga niya si Saddam Hussein, hanggang ngayon naman giyera pa rin sa Iraq.
Malaking bagay ang ehemplo na mapakita ni Obama. Kung mataas ang moralidad ng isang lider ng mundo, makaka-inspire siya sa ibang bansa.
Sa administrasyo ni Obama , inaasahan ng marami na papahalagahan ang katotohanan at magkakaroon ng respeto sa bawat banasa, hindi katulad ng kayabangan na pina-iral ni Bush.
Hindi lang nakaka-inspire. Pwede niyang gamitin ang mataas nilang standard sa moralidad para sa pakikipag-ibigan sa ibang bansa.
Sa relasyon ng Pilipinas at Amerika, hindi tayo umaasa na mayroong malaking pagkaka-iba. Siyempre gagawin ng Amerika ang nakakabuti sa kanila.
Kaya tayong Pilipino, dapat ipa-alam natin sa administrasyon ni Obama na hindi nakakabuti para sa Amerika na ang Pilipinas ay nasa ilalim ng peke na presidente.
Unfortunately for Obama, he has inherited a mountain of trash and problems from Bush. The next RP President would face the same problems and even worse when the Evil Bitch steps down (if she does). There are so many similarities between Bush and the Evil Bitch. Both are son and daughter of former Presidents. Both were the most unpopular Presidents of their respective countries. Both were reelected under a clout of suspicion (Bush’s not confirmed while the Evil Bitch has so many evidences against her). Bush was so much hated that shoes were thrown at him. The Evil Bitch was as much if not more hated; but we’re still waiting for someone to throw shoes at her.
Obama’s victory and inauguration give hope to Filipinos. Yes, change they can…but can we? I won’t be surprised if one of the presidential candidates would imitate Obama’s style and slogan. But the next candidate from the opposition doesn’t have to be an Obama. If the election is fair and clean, any candidate will defeat the one anointed by Malacanang. That’s for sure. The question we should be concerned right now is not who would win in 2010, but if there would be an election.
By the way, there’s an Obama City in Japan. That’s why Makati Mayor Jojo Binay plans to change Makati’s name to Jobama City.
Inggit sigurado si Bansot! Excited ang tao na sipain siya.
After the inauguration Obama’s hair will start falling from too much head scratching.America is facing a devastating economy,the worst scenario maybe millions of tax payer won’t received a check refund on their mail- box.If maybe the check arrived it says “IOU”.
Most americans are depending on tax refund to pay the mortgage.The housing crisis and too much credit has created a credit crisis that undermines the actual value of American currency.Americans have too many mortgages, too many credit cards and too much national debt. They rely on foreign imports from China and other nations and their own economy has become too service oriented and lacks manufacturing.
The result is that that the American dollar isn’t actually worth much when you think about it. It is just paper after all. For decades its value has been boosted by strong demand overseas as banks used it as backup currency because it was stable and strong, with George W. Bush asleep at the wheel, economic prosperity has been given a backseat and basically totally ignored while the White House focuses on international terrorism.Hope Obama can be a good driver and he won’t sleep on the wheel too.
Commodity prices are skyrocketing, which means America’s GDP is going up because prices are going up due to inflation. But if you adjust the GDP to make up for the loss of currency value you realize what has really happened. The USA is now in a recession and americans just hasn’t realize it because the GDP numbers still look up, but they haven’t clued in that the GDP’s value has actually gone down.
The price of grain, food, oil, gold, and many other basic commodities are all triple in value, much higher than the actual rate of interest.
Imagine you have $10,000 in the bank and the yearly compound interest rate is 5%. Over a year you would get $500 in interest. But imagine for a moment if the value of food, gasoline and all commodities doubled in price in one year. Your $10,500 isn’t really worth the same as it used to be, it is now worth approx. $5,250 in terms of actual purchasing power.
Americans now are speaking mandarin, English is becoming less important as an international business language. Mandarin Chinese is becoming more important.
US universities aren’t creating enough graduates to compete on the global market. Tuition is too expensive and there isn’t enough university professors.Most Fil-Am students are now taking up nursing course because in medical field is the stable job in America right now.
Automobile companies keep laying off unionized workers and moving their factories to China. The only car company building new plants and hiring workers in North America is Japanese car-maker Toyota which only hires non-union workers.
Adult American taxpayers have an average of $48,000 in debt due to credit cards, mortgages, university debts, etc. Now that the economy has gone sour many are losing their houses or declaring bankruptcy.People in America are now dying with liver cancer,They could not afford to pay $100 more an hour for a psychological evaluation.Jim Beam and Johnie Walker cost less at Korean store.
Now some scumbag lawyers are urging the homeowners to sue the lenders and the bank.
Welcome back Cocoy. Are you back in time for Obama’s inauguration? Convince dandaw to join you in switching to Democrats.
Malakas pa rin ang putang pekeng presidente ng Pinas Gloria sa Barack Administration sigurado. Ano ang ginagawa ni Bill Clinton, Gloria’s bff? The bitch has contributed millions of Pinoy’s money to Clinton’s Global Initiative. I just hope Hillary would give Gloria hell of a time, pero nandyan nga si Billy boy e.
Truth is nothing can be expected from Obama’s presidency as to Pinas case. And the pinoys shouldn’t expect anything from it. Pinoy tayo, tayo ang magpatalsik kay Gloria at umayos ng ating bansa.
This is not only funny but insulting…Malacanang promises RP’s support for Obama. Ha, ha, ha. It should be Obama who should say that to Malacanang.
Cocoy,
Mukhang una mo na pinasyalan ang Ellenville kesa sa bahay mo a.

I lost my password and my memory is not functioning well maybe,I need soup number 5 to remember.Being in America i have a tremendous pressure of responsibilities to my children and to the state where I lived.
The power of American democratic society has been kept in the hand of the citizens of the United States: Citizens have the responsibility to place their vote on issues and representatives of the government in a Ballot Box. Citizens assigned to a trial are to sit in a “Jury Box”.Well,if you ask me,what is the defendant doing in the courtroom.He won’t be in the courtroom in the first place if he didn’t do the crime.
Of course I’m talking about serving on jury duty, which is not only my chance to exercise my civic responsibility by helping power the wheels of justice.The news that I’d won a chance to sit in a jury box and pray that the eleven people sitting beside me weren’t actually my peers but enough to catch my attention. It informed me that on that particular day I should be prepared to administer jurisprudence. Luckily I didn’t have to be able to spell it. The only ways I could be excused from sitting in judgment were to be medically incapable (“Please submit a letter from a physician”), on vacation (“Please send the court a picture postcard”), or dead (“Include a copy of my death certificate with my signature notarized”).
While most of us would have gladly performed this civic duty for nothing, they graciously agreed to pay us next to nothing:$15 a day.They cull my name from voter registration rolls, the Department of Motor Vehicles, and the Victoria’s Secret catalog mailing list of my daughter. After carefully feeding all the names into a computer, they pop open a six-pack and watch reruns of Manny Pacquiao and Oscar Dela Hoya fight while the computer spits out a list of people and the jury selection person must hate me. I must have really done something nasty to the computer during its prior life as a calculator since this was the fourth time in 6 years it chose me, a fact even more amazing when I consider that during the same time I couldn’t even win even 3 numbers plus a mega in the lottery.My wife keep on dreaming someday she’ll hit the jackpot.The good thing in California there is no thunder,I wish there is: that might strike her and I will marry Luningning.Hehehe!
bitchevil,
The American people have spoken.They choose Obama.Hope he’ll do a great job for American people for bringing a job to America.Send me a double amount of retirement check that would be nice.Hehehe!
Chi,
Si Gloria, girlfriend ni Bill Clinton? Volunteer taga-sipsip siguro—literally speaking!!! Kasingtaas niya ang beywang ni Bill. Puedeng isubsob niya ang mukha niya doon sa gitna!!! 😛
In short, malandi talaga! Tapos, ngayon umaarte doon sa bagong presidente na di naman siya pansin lalo na kung susulat ang milyong pilipino na magnanakaw si Gloria Mandarambong Macapalgal!
Thanks Cocoy. After Obama’s inauguration, Obama is switching to Republican Party so that when he runs for reelection in 2012, his running mate would be Sarah Palin.
Actually, some Republicans are complaining because they say that Obama stole their president Lincoln, the first Republican president. Wala kasing lumalabas sa bibig ni Obama kundi puro Lincoln e. Identity thief daw, hehehe.
I voted for McCain. However, Obama is now my President and I will support him and respect the will of the majority. That does not mean, though, that I will not question his forthcoming policies that I may not agree with. His period of talking is finished. He is now about to really “DO” things.
After tomorrow’s frenzy, he will constantly be under the proverbial microscope. Ngayon pa nga, his cabinet appointees are under fire, i.e. Treasury Secretary nominee Timothy Geithner (whose department oversees the IRS), who “forgot” to pay back taxes, Attorney General nominee, Eric Holder, who was instrumental in the Clinton pardon of fugitive, Marc Rich, CIA Director nominee, Leon Panetta, who has no prior intelligence experience. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson was smart enough to withdraw, he knew that he is in for very tough questions in the confirmation hearings.
Obama is a real and ‘legitimate’ president. Again, he is now my president.
Hindi kagaya ng ibang questionable na “presidente daw” diyan. Can you say “Hello.. Garci?” I can not forget her paawa effect with matching puppy eyes when she came and addressed the nation with her “I am sorry speech”… I am sorry too, very, very sorry. Was she also sorry for the ZTE and the fertilizer fund scams, among others?
There’s enough honeymoon period with Obama, I’m giving him that period, like others. Saka na lang ako pupuri o babanat depende sa kanyang serbisyo and policies, not so much of his so many promises dahil parte lang yan ng kampanya.
He is the duly elected president of the US, so please tama na yang pangangantyaw sa mga bumoto kay McCain and Palin, that so over already. Let’s just wish Barack good luck.
Obama will soon face the problem of beginning to disappoint. The first disappointments, there are thousands of people hoping for appointments, some to Cabinet positions, others to the White House, others to federal agencies. Many will get something, but few will get as much as they hoped for. Some will feel betrayed and become bitter. During the transition process, the disappointed office seeker — an institution in American politics will start leaking on background to whatever reporters are available.
Obama will be sworn in.I think he will give a memorable, perhaps historic speech at his inauguration. There will be great expectations about him in the country and around the world. He will enjoy the traditional presidential honeymoon, during which all but his bitterest enemies will give him the benefit of the doubt. The press initially will adore him, but will begin writing stories about all the positions he hasn’t filled, the mistakes he made in the vetting process and so on. And then, things will get interesting.Iran and a U.S. Withdrawal From Iraq.
Obama has promised on his campaign to withdraw U.S. forces from Iraq, where he does not intend to leave any residual force. If he follows that course, he will open the door for the Iranians. Iran’s primary national security interest is containing or dominating Iraq, with which Iran fought a long war. If the United States remains in Iraq, the Iranians will be forced to accept a neutral government in Iraq. A U.S. withdrawal will pave the way for the Iranians to use Iraqi proxies to create, at a minimum, an Iraqi government more heavily influenced by Iran.
Obama will then be forced to make a decision. He can withdraw from Iraq and suffer the geopolitical consequences while coming under fire from the substantial political right in the United States that he needs at least in part to bring into his coalition. Or, he can retain some force in Iraq, thereby disappointing his supporters. If he is clumsy, he could wind up under attack from the right for negotiating with the Iranians and from his own supporters for not withdrawing all U.S. forces from Iraq. His skills in foreign policy and domestic politics will be tested on this core question, and he undoubtedly will disappoint many.
Next problem Obama will be facing with horrendous pressure is a phone call from Malacanang.”Hello Barrack!Remember me,This is Gloria!”–” “Gloria Who?” -“Yes Barrack! Gloria Arroyo. The president of the Republic of the Philippines” “Madame President.You must dial the wrong number,Bill Clinton don’t live here anymore, You want to speak to Hillary?”Hehehe!
We all expect Obama to be burdened with tons of problems he inherited from Bush. The problems most of which are very serious cannot be solved overnight. Adding to Obama’s predicament is the close guarding of Republican losers watching his every move. Every time he farts, he would be blamed.
bitchevil,
Obama will have many options on domestic policy given his majorities in Congress. But his Achilles’ heel, as it was for Bush and for many presidents, will be foreign policy. He has made what appear to be three guarantees. First, he will withdraw from Iraq. Second, he will focus on Afghanistan. Third, he will oppose Russian expansionism. To deliver on the first promise, he must deal with the Iranians. To deliver on the second, he must deal with the Taliban. To deliver on the third, he must deal with the Europeans.To deliver the fourth promise,he must not be tempted to invite Gloria Arroyo on State dinner.If he can do all of this he can be a great president.
Cocoy, what you mentioned were all true. Obama did not mention much about China. His half-brother is married to a Chinese and both are residents of China.
Anyway, please read this. Could you request Obama to respond to Malacanang, Cocoy?
Malacañang congratulated United States president-elect Barack Obama ahead of his inauguration Tuesday, as it expressed confidence the change in leadership would not affect its strong ties with Washington.
At the same time, deputy presidential spokesperson Lorelei Fajardo took exception Monday at a report on the Philippine Daily Inquirer, which said that ties between the Philippines and the US were shaky, calling it an “unfounded” scenario.
Soon the American people will find out if Obama understands the exercise of political power as well as he understands the pursuit of that power. Americans really can’t know that until after the fact. There is no reason to think he can’t finesse these problems. Doing so will take cunning, trickery and the ability to make his supporters forget the promises he made while keeping their support. It will also require the ability to make some of his opponents embrace him despite the path he will have to take. In other words, he will have to be cunning and ruthless without appearing to be cunning and ruthless. That’s what successful presidents do.In the meantime, he should enjoy the transition. It’s frequently the best part of a presidency.
One thing we should realize is that Obama has put up a powerful and competent team. Obama is also the type who listens and consults all parties even his political foes. That’s one trade mark of a good leader.
Iyong mother ko, dye in the wool Republican talaga. Di daw siya manonood ng inauguration ni Obama. Wala daw siyang panahon. Sabi ko sa kaniya, starting 7 pm, Japan time, I’ll watch the inauguration on CNN and BBC.
I was thinking of attending the inauguration with some people from Obama City in Japan (I was going to volunteer as guide and interpreter for the group) pero na-busy ako sa trabaho. I’ll probably just try to get an appointment and introduce myself as one of his volunteers in Japan during the election. Magdadala ako ng mga anti-Czarina Gloria leaflets when that happens.
At least, even those who did not vote for Obama is now willing to cooperate with him tackle the difficult task of righting the wrongs done by Dubya Bush, the worse president in US history. Ang kapal din ng mukha sa totoo lang.
corr. even those….are now willing… Taragis na ingles na iyan, ang dami pa kasing conjugation….! 😛
The Filipinos who voted and campaigned for Obama…can now ask him “you are our hope.. do give us glory” and he might just give them gloria the “putot”. Promises! Promises! was it not a broadway play which was made into a movie?..now it is a new Promises! Promises starring Barack..just as Cocoy said he is now our President.
folks! did you hear the slip of the tongue of Mrs. Biden in
Oprah’s show? When I heard it, I thought it was “To Tell the Truth Show.” saan nahuhuli ang isrda? ang tanong nga!
grizzy: re Gloria and Bill…was it not Monica?..kung sabagay with putot she does not have to go under the table!
rose,
Those Filipinos who campaigned for Obama are on roller coaster of fantasies than reality.Obama faces one of the greatest set of crises to ever face a new President.The new President been forced to come to terms with such a heavy load of national and international issues.
The entire world is sliding into a recession. Nations small and large are experiencing massive numbers of their citizens clamoring for a chance to make enough to eat and feed their families. The number of Americans looking for a job is approaching to a highest peak of the workforce, and may actually exceed that number, considering the numbers who have become shut out and shut off from unemployment benefits, and are no longer part of the official statistics.Banks and other financial institutions are failing all over the world. An entire nation teeters on the brink of bankruptcy,frantically seeking a way to bolster its currency from total collapse. And the banks are, once again, to blame for their own demise, by taking on reckless lending habits and engaging in securitizing debt obligations. Instead of the collapse of the stock market, their practices have led to the collapse of the real estate market, throwing hundred of thousand onto the streets as they rapaciously foreclose on millions of homes.Obama will have to show bold leadership and rouse the American people to recognize that we have a clear and present danger that must be dealt with.
What America needs now are jobs,jobs and more jobs.
Side note:The biggest obstacle for Obama after his inauguration is his citizenship.A legal challenge that alleges Barack Obama isn’t a “natural born” citizen and therefore constitutionally ineligible to be president of the United States will follow the Democrat into the Oval Office, with a U.S. Supreme Court conference on the dispute set after the Jan. 20 inauguration.
The case on the issue will be reviewed by justices Jan. 23.The case raised by attorney Philip Berg.
Cocoy, please stop acting like a poor loser. Go and kiss Obama’s hand.
bitchevil,
Stop being naive.I am not acting as a poor loser,I have nothing to gain or lose whoever the president of america,my monthly check come on time.I am not the one who raise the citizenship issue of Obama.You can ask atty:Philip Berg and I don’t even know who is this lawyer.I am just posting what I read.Legally if it’s proven that Obama is not a “natural born” citizen therefore constitutionally ineligible to be the president of the United States.The burden of proof is on Obama to prove himself that he is a “natural born” citizen.That’s the job of the justices of U.S. Supreme Court and the will decide on the trier of facts.
In the US the elected president is respected dahil he is legitimately elected. In a matter of hours, the election returns are tallied and a real winner is chosen. In the Philippines, hinihilot pa yung results. It takes even a week before the results are known. May ballot switching, snatching etc. May kasama pang patayan kung minsan, bayaran etc… Si Bansot ang epitome ng mandurugas na lider. Nagnakaw na, nagsinungaling pa and she continues to pay all her partners in crime with high positions and money. Downright dirty!
With Obama, the fresh mandate will encourage new ideas. This alone will hopefully turn the bad economy around. Obama can not please everyone but at least he can bridge the gap. But let us see how he performs way beyond the “honeymoon” period. With wars left and right, recession and an empty treasury, his job is tough!
I voted for McCain but I welcome Obama’s victory. Obama deserves to be given a helping hand afterall if he fails the country fails as well.
On the contrary, with the tiyanak, it was a failure from day one. There was not even a honeymoon period because the people hated her from day one! Makapal lang talaga ang mukha niya and the opposition is really very weak. Kanya kanyang lakad. I will not be surprised if this bitch will reign forever and ever unless the opposition will band together and oust her collectively.
From Narciso Ner:
The Moral Values have really gone down the drain. The only way to save our nation and the next generation is to force out Gloria Arroyo whose immoral acts have triggered a chain reaction which is aggravating every second, every minute, every hour, every day that she’s in that powerful office and to form a civilian caretaker government composed of CJ Puno, and representatives from the academe, business, religious, military sectors. A national election can follow after a total revamp of the Comelec, AFP and PNP.
sino si hobama sa bu’ay nating mga pinoy?
wala lang.
siya ‘yung presidente ng yu hes hop hey. ‘inalal ng sambayanang hamerkano bilang kahunahuna’ang hafro-hamerican president. ‘indi katulad nohong nakahupo sa malakanyang na nagpipilit mamuno sa pilipinas ka’it ‘indi tunay na ‘inalal ng tahongbayan.
‘aaaaaay bu’aaaayyyy!
On day one, President Obama’s first thing to do is to apologize for what G. Bush have done to the world.
cocoy,
Barack won’t have a tough time in international policies, that’s the very reason why he chose Bill, er…Hillary pala as State Secretary. Just recently, it was Hillary who announced her, the US and Obama’s position on Gaza conflict, siding with Israel, which O was silent when asked in interviews.
My guess is that Barack will concentrate on the US economy. I talked to a lot of unemployed Americans (yun bang mga natsupi dahil sa econ meltdown) and they were one in saying that if only Barack could create jobs and bring them back to being productive and earning citizens…he’d be great. As for me, I would rather that he concentrate on the domestic problems, e mas malaki pa ito kesa sa gera sa labas. Imagine, the US as a ghost country…..
I think that Americans and people around the globe put too much expectations on Barack and he is feeding them with words very difficult to put to realization in just four years especially with the recycled Clinton’s staff. As of now, he is still in euphoria but let him enjoy every moment before reality kicks in.
Sorry Cocoy for my comment; but why keep raising Obama’s citizenship? The fact that Obama was born to an American mother makes him an American. Obama was born in the US and then spent some few years of childhood in Indonesia by attending school. He grew up in Hawaii. Well, people just want to use all tricks to stop popular leaders from leading the country. It was done to FPJ. It’s being done to Erap because of his plan to run again. It’s been done to Congresswoman Limkaichong. It was done to former Manila Congressman Harry Angping.
Of course Erap’s issue is not his citizenship but the legality of his running again as President.
No matter what, let’s give Obama a break. America and the whole world are in his hands. He needs all of the people’s support to succeed. His success would benefit not only Americans but also us. Success is not a destination…it’s a journey. For Obama, it’s a very tough journey.
On day one, President Obama’s first thing to do is to apologize for what G. Bush have done to the world.
Tilamsik, one thing an American President will not do is to embarrass the outgoing President as he will never want the next President to do it to him. President George W. maybe leaving a legacy of that is still to be judge by history and the prognosis doesn’t look good as the Economy and the War in Iraq are both testimonies to his failures, but as far as Obama is concern that is another administration and his is now and the Challenge is enormous to create a drift among his Fellow Americans.
I agree, Vic. Obama even praised McCain. But not in the Philippines…the next RP President must curse the Evil Bitch.
BE, But is She a President legally? I think we have to put a stop to this cycle somewhere sometimes, can’t tell when, but time will come, that the country will mature to the point that everyone will work toward the common goal, regardless of party, belief, religion..but first we have to minimize if not eliminate the Evil that resides in most of our Politicians and Leaders and public servants and those that were not cleansed yet…and there are many.
Vic: Obama says “Change We Can”. The Evil Bitch says “Change We Can’t”.
Chi: As for me, I would rather that he concentrate on the domestic problems, e mas malaki pa ito kesa sa gera sa labas.
*****
Sinabi mo pa. It’s the best thing that he can do for his country. God must be punishing America for Bush’s wars even on innocent people he hated and ordered massacred. Funny how all the countries that joined his wars now suffer, too.
Vic: But is She a President legally?
*****
Wrong! She stole the position not just once but twice. So, she cannot be legal!
She is able to stay only because she has managed to put her people in positions where she can be protected to stay forever and Filipinos allow her to do so instead of following the law to send criminals like her to prison.
corr.: …instead of sending criminals like her to prison in accordance with the law that prescribes cheater like her to be arrested and imprisoned for life. Aside from cheating in the election, she has continued to plunder the treasury together with her husband, and fellow robbers and thieves, etc.
“…one thing an American President will not do is to embarrass the outgoing President as he will never want the next President to do it to him.”
Vic, very nice response. That set’s him apart from the likes of Gloria Arroyo!
In fact, first business of the day for incoming president Barack was coffee and chit-chat with outgoing president Bush.
For people partcularly US and Phil…change we MUST..nasa atin individually ang pagasa ng mundo… and together we can change the world and change we must…majority of us believe in God…and God gave Moses 10 (sampu like sampung mga daliri) commandments…He created man and woman..Adam and Eve (bakit mayroong in between…saan nanggaling ang gay? ok ba ang mag encourage ng in between, ang alanganin?
Ang sa akin..hindi kasi labag sa utos ng Dios…maybe I am not an intellectual..kaya hindi ko maintindihan…oh well. different strokes for different folks…
Sori, peke nga pala si Gloria!
Cocoy: sa palagay mo how long will this “honeymoon” of Obama with the people last? Maraming unemployed dito ngayon..he promised jobs…he promised a lot of things..Must… he has to create jobs..many blamed Bush..but corruption has been before Bush’ time..history will judge…let us wait if Barack can keep his promises…mayroon na siyang hindi tinutupad ngayon..ano pa kaya ang susunod na hindi matutupad? The great expectations of him..oh well he was voted ang sabi nga we deserve what we voted…that is demo crazy..
Rose,
The open gay pastor at Obama-rama, well that is a very Democrat’s liberal attitude of looking at the world, most gray areas are acceptable, kaya ang Hollywood ay in na in ngayon. Okay lang yan sa akin as long as they remain ‘humans’ with a good ‘thing’ in between, hehehe!
Tama si Narciso….”morality has gone down the drain”..and more so here in the States…bawal ang magsabi ng pangalan ng Dios sa public schools..pero sa pera hindi pa nabura ang “In God we Trust”..para sa akin and I hope I am wrong..in public schools they are not allowed to pause for a minute to invoke the name of God..pero sa pera His name is invoked..I am not surprised at all why the CEOs of many companies have proven that greed is the name of the game..
grizzy, my question if is she the president legally is answerable by Yes or No and the answer should have been NO.
By the Way, President Obama just had delivered one directly to the likes of GMA which is may not be the exact word as I quoted by it was something like this ” to those country reek with corrupt leaders, we will extend our hands if you are willing to unclenched your hands” (look for the exact text later)
It was indeed an inspirational speech and a very wonderful rendition of “a simple gift” by a quartet of great musicians, befitting a Great Moment in History…
U.S. President Obama has a message to those world leaders’ ruled by corruption and deceits are in the wrong side of history. This is particularly addressed to Gloria. Everybody knows that Gloria Arroyo is an illegitimate and the most corrupt president in Philippine history. Huwag ng patagalin, patalsikin na si Gloria.
Is this the “change” Americans voted for? To have the same rhetoric recited back to us? I was disappointed by his speech,forget the past, most of us would like to hear what Obama would tell the American people, his vision and what priorities are.
The new president is half-black/half-white. Why is everybody especially the black race claiming him to be just pure black? Just like Tiger Woods, they always claim him to be black? So, now that Micheal Jackson is in his “koko” years, they’re saying he’s white? That’s hyprocritical and funny but also a little bit ridiculous. 🙂
Good point. I think Obama should not be called African-American since he’s half white. He may look more black than white, but the fact is he has a 50% white blood.
If Obama can help us condemn that megalomaniac evil-bitch in malacanang for all her wrong doings, he will defnitely get my vote for his second-term.
He should be called American not as hyphenated American. There’s no such thing as white or black blood. Maybe you are referring to the color of the skin.
I just correct my black friends whenever they mention that he’s black to “HALF”.
I use to get intelligence briefings about the Philippines, it seems like the U.S. don’t know crap what is really happening in the Phils. Things we already know which is old news to us. I don’t know who gets our intel, but, whoever it is must be busy partying. Heck! I can get better intel just reading Phil. newspapers. If you’re curious, NO, there’s nothing about that bogus president gloria… lol! 🙂
“To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.”President Barack Obama
Why don’t people call the Evil Bitch “Filipina-Aeta”?
Because Aeta will be so demeaning to the native tribe to connect such an evil-megalomaniac bogus president. That would be a big insult to them… But I’m sure Hitler/Saddam/Saddam would like to connected to her… 🙂
People call him black because he is. It would be ridiculous to call him “white” or Nicole Kidman “black” for the obvious reasons. Why is that difficult to understand?
Because he is really half. He’s mom is white, he’s dad is black. As simple as that… I’m not sure if you really spend some years in the U.S., you’ll understand our point of view if you did…
I don’t who’s stupid but seriously, does anybody call kinky-haired dark-skinned people “half”? My dog Sniper’s mom is a Shepherd but the stud is a mongrel. He looks like a mongrel, therefore he is. No such thing as a half mongrel.
Obama acknowledges he is black, it’s not for you to change it, duh! No point in arguing this further.
