MERGED: Do You Want U.S. Statehood For the Philippines?

[Isotope]

---

Kita mga pinoy nagdahum ug nanghinaot moasenso...sigig ampo sa mga Amerikano.

Sila mga 'kano nagnita ug mga paagi sa pagpanghimulos nato...ngita ug barato nga sweldo unya kita pay sad-an kay ato kuno sila gi-ilogan sa trabaho.

Sa-on!

Ah, kana dako sad na issue labi na sa mga Latin Americans ug Asians na naa didto sa USA. Pero diverse man kaayo sila didto ug political influence mao nang naa mga community na pro or con anang foreign job issue.

We have been Americas dog ever since they invaded our country. "Liberating" us from the Spaniards and again liberating us from the Japanese. The later was the real liberation.

Today, when America says jump - we say - how high? (morag Cebu City councilors ba) Pirmi ta naa sa iyang kiliran kada panung niya ug gubat. Loyal kaayo gyud ta niya = dog loyal gyud.

Ang nakaparat lang pamalandungon ba kay ang uban nasod iyang tabangan sa ila national debt. Ang iyang South American allies kay gi-condone gyud. Apan kita sigig pabayad.

Kita ang apil sa pinakaubos nga gitgaan ug "aide". Naa man lagi military aide apan puro outmoded, flying coffins. Samtang ang South Korea, Taiwan, Israel gitagaan sa pinakamodernong armas panggubat.

I like America. I love Americans. Maayo unta ila pud tang tagaan sa husto nga pagtratar nga kita usa sa pinaka-loyal nga amigo nila... kaligo-an unta ta nila ug daghang tinoud nga gasa. Pakanon unta ta nila ug lami nga debt-payment scheme.

Hinaot nga mausab na ilang pagtan-aw sa Pilipinas, nga unta dili nata iro niya kung dili usa ta ka tunay nga tao nga amigo.

Nakabantay siguro sila na korakot kaayo ta. Hahaha. Aw klaro sad hinuon kaayo. Even our budget for AFP modernization we buy the 60's era machinery. Naka affect gyud to na gitangtang nato ilang base sa Subic and to think that we are their closest nation here in Asia as early and before the 20th Century. We fought side by side against the Japanese and during the Korean War against the Communists and in Vietnam as foreign aid. This is just an observation, that South Korea and Taiwan has a US base. I really don't mind having an American base here. For fear factor plays part in would-be invading countries that might threaten us(like the Spratley case). This is one reason why Taiwan is confidently flexing its military muscle knowing they have the 'world police' by their side.

we can speak english... and we still can be filipinos... americans stole english from the british and their still americans... if we can't change our country now for the better (preferably starting with ourselves), then who will take up this cup?

A little correction lang:
Americans did not steal the english language from the Brits. America was the garbage dump of the Brits. America before it was America (Australia, likewise) was a place where criminals were banished. Europeans colonized "America". They massacared the original settlers - The American Indians - and made them third class citizens. Tragic!

Long Live America!
