War on Error: Pinoy Version

War on Terror: Pinoy version
(I wrote this 3 days ago but I lost the fr***ing signal again with my Broadband... So here goes. Better late than never)

Reactions:

1. This is not religion we're fighting about here, is it? Because if it is, then, Marx was right. Religion is the opium of the people. Instead of uniting peoples, it divides them more.

2. We were having peace-talks with these people, right? If the raids in Lanao were the replies from their side, why talk peace with them? Let us show them the force of law. If not, we will look like a pie of dung. According to some accounts, some of them were laughing while firing. Madness.

3. This is a declaration of war. If we won't respond with force, our people will all the more realize the cowardice and inefficiency of the government, who said in its constitution that the welfare of the people is its prime objective. Crush them! Crush the rebellion now! Agression must be met firmly.

4. We have been talking peace with these people for a hundred years. I say we seek the statement of the Organization of Islamic Conference. Certainly these murderers will not get their support. Let them condemn these atrocities not only against Christians but also against Muslims, and on Muslim soil.

5. If MILF could not monitor its own ranks, why the fucking hell should we talk to them? This is an insult to the government of the Philippines and the peace process.

6. Sometimes, there is no peace without war. My mother used to tell me this. After watching Apocalypto last night, I realized that indeed, men have always fought with one another since the start of time. There is no peace without the readiness to go to war. We must try to avoid war because of the cost it brings us, but a prolonged situation of not-being-in-war but being-almost-in-war is worse than war itself. I say, we declare war on these bastards for the sake of peace and security, especially for the people in Mindanao.

7. As Woodrow Wilson said, asking for the declaration of war, "The world must be safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon trusted foundations of political liberty." What happened in Mindanao is definitely not a convincing argument on our trusted foundations of political liberty. This is the time to reprove it. Let it be through a massive show of force. Else, we become the laughing stock of our enemies.

US Basketball slithers past EspaƱoles stalwarts to regain the Gold


Bryant here reacts to the crowd after making the basket. Spain gave them a hard time until the final minutes of the fourth quarter, getting as close as 2 points. The shooting spree ended with the Americans above the rest of the world. Final score: US 118, Spain 107. Nothing to be ashamed of. Hey, these two countries battled in Manila Bay in May 1898. Just coincidence.

Mabuti na lang at patay na ang tatay ko....

... dahil kung hindi, binato niya ang TV namin sa pagkatalo ng boksingero nating legend daw. 6-3. No match. Ang kalaban? Taga-Ghana. Ha? Ano daw? Ghana. Country ba yun? Oo. Hindi Russia. Hindi Thailand. Or Korea. Or Cuba. Unang laban pa lang. Tanamor lost. Wala na ang medalya.

Tama ang hula ko kaninang umaga. Ang pagkakamali ko? Nanood pa ako. T**g-i**a nakakahiya.

Di ba sinabihan itong si Harry na dapat ang gloves tatama ang at least 80% nung white color ng flat sa kahit anong parte ng katawan ng kalaban n'ya? Eh puro pa-side ang suntok niya eh. Bad trip!

Facts and Opinions on the Beijing Olympics



Fact: This guy is JB Walsh.

Opinion: He looks victorious.

Fact: He is representing the country in Swimming.

Opinion: His name sounds Fil-Am to me.

Fact: Last August 10, 2008, he swam for Heat 2 of the 200m Butterfly. He clocked 1:59.39.

Opinion: That's way off Olympic standards.

Fact: Last 2004, the following were the winners.

GOLD Michael Phelps, USA 01:54.0
SILVER Takashi Yamamoto, JPN 01:54.6
BRONZE Stephen Parry, GBR 01:55.5

Opinion: 4 seconds for 200m swimming is forever.

Fact: This guy placed 29th overall in this heat.

Opinion: Look at my opinion on the time.

Fact: There are members of Team Philippines who did not represent the country in any prior sports event in the last 4 years.

Opinion: Some of them were dropouts of US Team. They did not make the cut there, and ended up representing the country who has no money to send their athletes, no money to feed their athletes, and no money to train their athletes, but enough money to send politicians and scumbags in China.

Fact: We don't have a medal until this day.Opinion:

Our only hope is our boxing athlete.

Fact: We DON'T have a MEDAL until this day.

Opinion: We should stop sending participants in the Olympics if we know they won't win anyway. Sure, we can use the "exposure" excuse. But, fact is, 80% of our population is near poverty or below poverty line. We should cater to our lower needs first (Motivation-Hygiene Theory). The stomach of the nation is grumbling. The body of the nation is malnourished. And we are going to the Olympics to entertain ourselves.

Fact: Olympics represents unity. Russia is on a warpath with Georgia. Both are in the Olympic Games now.

Opinion: The first marathon represents a war cry, not triumph in sports.

Fact: In 1936, Berlin hosted the Olympics. Derr Fuhrer stood proudly for the Aryan race. Three years later, they invaded Austria and Poland to start the Second World War.


In Munich 1972, members of Israeli Team were hostaged by terrorists. They killed 11 Israeli athletes and coaches, and one German police officer, before being killed.

Opinion: None. It's pretty obvious.

I say we train athletes. Support sports. But leave the politicians. I still believe there are many untapped warriors in our provinces, but due to poverty and politicking, they don't get discovered. I believe that it is better to pursue with the Palarong Pambansa of the Keon days. Discover talents. And send only those who can beat the Asian records at least. And stop sending the Fil-Ams who first tried out as Americans.

Fast forward to 2012. I tell you.
