Does he have anyone left, other than ObamaPhone users?

[humblegunner]

So about thirty of ‘em, who went to a mental health workshop...

Man, I don’t know if this is really the best-of-all endorsements.

My daughter’s boyfriend is Filipino, and rabid for Romney.

One of my buds in my circle is a hard core, right-wing Filipino, and my brother is married to one too. Too bad the weekly Fil community newspapers are knee-deep in obama drool.

Man, I like you, but if nit-picking were an Olympic sport, your living room would sparkle like an Aztec treasure cave.

NOMINATION: Post of the week!!

(bump!)

Don’t cry at me about it.

You come up with a couple dozen Filipino mental patients
and I’m supposed to holler “hell yeah” at ‘em?

You can do better, I’ve seen you do it.

I have not heard much comment from the natives over here, but the majority of American expats are for Romney.

It’s a trend, man, just like this:

I served with Philipino cooks in the Navy on subs. They knew what a dictatorial govt was under Marcos. That;s why they are against Obummer.

They also smoked nothing but menthol cigs. Plus they were pretty hot blooded.

[humblegunner]

Well and weller.
Fact is, citing mental patients lacks gravitas.

At least in the way you want the the citation to go.

I mean.. comedy aside, citing a couple dozen Filipino mental patients is kind of weak.

Or have you an argument prepared about how a couple dozen Filipino mental patients are indicative of American voting trends?

And would that REALLY be a needful thing?

[2ndDivisionVet]

As I’m sure you know, I didn’t write the article. I’m not a blogger here for hits.

[humblegunner]

Hey, you’re the one citing foreign retards.

Me, I’m just saying the foreign retards ought not have too much a say in American politics.

Especially only 30 or so of them.

Your mileage may vary.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Are you descended from Paleo-Indians who were here since the dawn of time? If not, your ancestors were immigrants, just like the people in that room, as mine were. They are not “foreigners” if they're voting in US elections, they're obviously US citizens, as are the people in the article about the Indian-American donations. Or is this really about Mitt Romney and not these people?

I was born the the P. I. and my parents live in a huge Filipino community in Oxnard, CA. Although, usually their vote cancels out each other, this time they both have been on Obama’s case forever. I'm going to visit them next week, and I'll be selling persimmons from the family U-Pik orchard, and I'll be asking those families ( mostly Filipinos and Vietnamese) who are buying, who they will be voting for, and if they aren't for Romney, I'll do my best to switch them over.
Filipinos are fiscally and socially conservative, but along the way,the democratic party assumed they were part of the fold, so they went along. :last time, I got my parents to tell everyone to vote for McCain because he was ex-Navy ( it worked) now the argument will be, aren't you ashamed, Filipinos would rather be janitors and clean bedpans, (which we frequently do) than go on the dole. We are not freeloaders on the public dime!

[humblegunner]

If you are unable to see how citing thirty mental patients
as pro-conservative examples is questionable then I’m really unable to explain it to you.

Yay the mental patients, who don’t speak English.
Yay them, let’s have them as examples. Let’s do.
Yay.

People from the Philippines make great American citizens. We are law abiding, keep our heads down and work hard, send out kids to school, and love this country with a passion. Second generation kids are only patriotic to this country.

[humblegunner]

People from the Philippines make great American citizens.

Yeah.

But if you read closely, the article is about mental patients.

That's a bit different. Isn't it.
