President Bush met with Filipino President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo today at the White House. Arroyo was in Washington while her country tries to recover from a typhoon that devastated coastal areas and flipped a ferry carrying over 800 passengers last week. Before discussing aide for the Philippines, Bush couldn’t resist beginning the sober meeting with a quip about a Filipino member of his kitchen staff. Read part of the transcript from the meeting .
PRESIDENT BUSH: Madam President, it is a pleasure to welcome you back to the Oval Office. We have just had a very constructive dialogue. First, I want to tell you how proud I am to be the President of a nation that — in which there’s a lot of Philippine-Americans. They love America and they love their heritage. And I reminded the President that I am reminded of the great talent of the — of our Philippine-Americans when I eat dinner at the White House. (Laughter.)
PRESIDENT ARROYO: Yes.
PRESIDENT BUSH: And the chef is a great person and a really good cook, by the way, Madam President.
PRESIDENT ARROYO: Thank you.

Ang saya saya no… Si Bush malungkot ang mukha dahil sa trahedia na nangyari sa ating bansa. Iyon bisita niya naka-smile pa. Wow sarap kunan ng picture at ilagay sa kuwadro para sabihin sa mga bata… ito ang lola ninyo na mabait, maawain, at hindi iniiwanan ang bansa during crisis.
Kap, kumidlat! Sorry po mahirap talaga magsinungaling!
Arroyo and 59 plus government officials, not counting their own relatives are in America. While the Philippines was being battered by Typhoon Frank. In addition to flooding and landslides 700+ were missing from a sunken ferry. These were not good enough reasons to cancel the trip. They have good reason why this trip will never be cut short regardless what happens in the Philippines. And the reason IS – drum roll please…..PACQUIAO’S FIGHT is this coming Saturday. One question, I have – Is FG, Iggy and the two sons, included in the entourage? If they are, where do you think FG and the congressmen, senators and other government officials will be on Saturday evening, the 28th of June? If you say Mandalay Bay, you may be absolutely right!
Imagine our head of state begging in America to voluntary donate to the victims of flood, typhoon, and the capsized ferry . I heard some Americans wondered “why in a hell these leaders are in the U.S. abandoning their country and people who are in desperate stage trying to survive from hunger, death, and hopelessness? Bakit hindi sila umuwi at tumulong sa mga nasalanta?
It is a shame that the Filipinos elected a lady president who is totally devoted only to her immediate family and political friends. True to her character she flew with her family and a pocketful of congressmen to watch a boxing bout in Las Vegas. Fatsu is a boxing aficionado and he cannot afford to miss this one. Manny Pacquiao does not need her to win over Diaz but the Filipino people who she left behind for this junket needs her to find ways and means to hold down prices of prime commodities, etc. Pacquioa fight is more important to them than 80 million plus hungry soul.
Of course if Diaz knock Manny’s ass in the ring,Manny can use the tragedy as an excuse,not his gloves,not his shoes,not his malungay diet either but the ferry.
I am outraged by the fact that our tax-dollars ($30 MILLION this year US military aid to the Philippines) is being used to support a regime with the worst record of human rights violations with over 900 political killings under the command of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Bush and Arroyo should be both indicted of war crimes in Iraq and Philippines.
Ang balita ko ay hindi naintindihan ni Bush ang sinabi ni Goria sa tagalog dahil hindi na nila itrinanslate sa english.Alam daw ni Bush na puro kasinungalingan lang daw ang sasabihin niya kaya hindi na nila pinag=aksayahan ng panahon para itranslate pa.
Itong si Arroyo ay malakas na ang tama sa utak.Pag mag-speech siya sa mga mahihirap na naninirahan sa pinas ay english kaya hindi nila maintindihan.Tapos kapag nandito naman sa Amerika ay magtagalog siya.Bakit ano ang palagay niya sa mga Pinoy na nakatira dito? hindi nakakaintindi ng english.
Wala naman palang kuwenta ang pinag-usapan nila sa White House.Bakit pa sila nagpunta doon at nagbitbit pa ng isang batalyon na palakpak boys?
Ano ngayon ang sasabihin ng mga kurakot na tongressman pag-uwi nila ng Pinas?
Admit it.These corrupt politicians went to US to watch Pacquiao-Diaz fight actually. It was not for any official business but to watch the fight.If their purpose is to talk to the US president.The talk is over.They can already come home. Such gesture would go a long way in making our people feel that indeed her poster GMA cares, is true.In general US trip is now worth it.
In essence GMA is heading toward alm begging when disaster struck for it gave her the opportunity to ask for help. A presidential hat passing around on a thousand Fil-Am helping hands.There is a questions,Do WE trust these bastards morons that our hard earned dollar goes directly to the disaster victims? I think we the people in USA, much that they want to help, we would prefer to give it to the victims directly.

Nakahingi ba ng limos si Pandak kay Bush?
Wala naman pakinabang ang pagpunta niya sa America.Kinutya pa siya ni Bush at sinabi ni Bush sa kanya na magaling magluto ng adobo si Aling Cristita.
Pareng Cocoy,
May gustong makipagkaibigan sa atin.Siya ang unang nag post.
Greggy,
Pogi! Hehehehe!
Crush ko siya.Kahit ma one time lang ako niyan ay okey na sa akin ng magka anak naman ako ng mestizang kano at ipasok ko ng artista kay mother lily.
Maningning,
Ingat ka lang day! Kung gusto mo ako na lang.Hahahaha!
Greggy,
Sa totoo lang ay crush ko si Cocoy.Kaya lang dinidedma niya ako.Para lang mag-enjoy ako dito sa batugang mister ko ay siya ang ini-imagin ko.Pagbigyan ko muna si Cocoy at si Pogi bago ikaw kung sakali man na darating ang gabing iyun kung buhay ka pa.Hehehehehe!
OKS LANG! Maningning.
AAAAY Buhay ng naman,nakakita lang ng Pogi ay hindi mapigilan ang paglalandi.
Huwag mo ng kataluhin si Manong Cocoy Maningning.Hindi ka papatulan niyan.Ang hilig niyan sa pagkakaalam ko ay mahahaba ang binti at slender ang kaha.Kung 6×6 ang size mo tapos katulad ka pa na pungok na hapon ay dididmahin ka talaga.
Ikaw naman Lolo Greg ang tanda-tanda mo na ay tumitilaok ka pa.Bakit kaya mo pa ba? Hahahahahaha!
President Arroyo is the product of Philippine’s school system.She could not talk straight English.With all the seriousness of her US visit aside, I’m quite certain many Filipinos by now would be generally disappointed if after all the hype surrounding her social ineptitude and general idiocy, didnt experience some sort of brain stall in plain view for their amusement. It would be like going to a NASCAR race and not seeing at least one crash.
Arroyo’s critidc can now comfortably enjoy that big belly laugh in the Philippines, suspicions confirmed.
Arroyo was then the Vice-President to President Joseph Estrada.Then.she stole the presidency once,cheated twice in the election.Estrada is exactly known for his command of English and was prone to gaffes and other malapropisms. But then again, he wasn’t a product of the Ivy League and didn’t live in America for most of his life.
Ignorant and Insensitive – that sounds like Gloria to me. It frightens me that there are people out there that voted for this moronic woman. Oh wait – those people around her are also ignorant and insensitive – nevermind.
Iba talaga is Erap, malawak ang pangunawa at may angking katalinohan na wala sa iba.
Maningning biyenan ko ayaw mo? Pasado na siya sa physical exam. Physically fit and certified tuli.
Mang Greg kung nanghahamon ka, magpakunsulta ka muna. Mahirap nang matulad doon sa hot na hot na senior citizen na namayapa sa Roxas blvd. sa piling ng batambata pa lang ng chic niya.
Huwag sa bayagra mang Greg. Isang shot lang ng gin na may halong hilaw pang itlog na native. Dalawa hanggang tatlong balut two hours before sex. Para lalong maging effective, uminom ka rin ng dalawang bote ng cerviza negra. Kung wala, omorder ka muna ng iniinom ni sioktong. At higit sa lahat balikan mo lang iyong poste dati ni mang cocoy–iyong babaeng bubuka-buka at nagpapakita ng kanyang flower.
kutsara friend,
Huwag mo namang questionin kung tumitilaok pa ang manok ni tatay greg. Siguradong tigasin pa iyan na parang teksas na pansabong. Sagana sa himas at saka pausok.
I wish all the macho men here a happy sex week-end para buenasin si Pacman sa kanyang laban.
Malapit na palang mag 40 thousand hits itong pasadahan na Cocoy’s Delight. Kung sino ang magiging ika-40K hits, kunin ang premyo kay Mang Cocoy. Ang poging may-ari nito na hindi mahilig sa tsikas
All I can say to this morally depraved junketeering officials is this: umuwi na kayo! hindi na kayo naawa sa mga kababayan ninyong naghihirap dahil sa bagyo, samantala kayo ay nagpapasasa sa kaban ng bayan.
Mga ayop kayo lahat!
Akala ko kung anong importanting bagay na ang pag-uusapan nina Bush at Gloria.Nagsama pa ng isang katerbang miron na ginastusan ng mga Pinoy.Iyun pala ay pinag-usapan lang nila ang recipe ng nilutong adobo ng cook ni Bush na Pinay.Sana nag text na lang sila,o kaya’y bumili na lang ng phone card si Bush at tinawagan niya ng long distance call si Arroyo.$50. na phone card ay mahabang usapan at kuwentuhan na.
Hawaiian Guy,
Hindi pa uuwi ang mga hinayupak na iyan.Manonood pa ng boksing ni Pacman.Ang dapat sa mga iyan ay salubungin ng mga Pinoy sa Airport at harangin na silang lahat at huwag ng papasukin sa Pinas.Mag-exile na lang sila para naman bumuti buti na ang kalagayan ng bansa natin.
Kutsara,
sexy ako ano! Di hamak na mas maganda ako kay Ai-AI,mapapahiya siya sa beauty ko.Natural iyan at hindi nagpapa Belo.Kaya silence ka lang at diskarte ko ito.
Doc Bobonyo,ayaw ko sa lasengo.Malakas mag-inom ang biyenan mo at higit sa lahat ayaw ko ng may BO at bad breath.Saka type ko ang tall at handsome dahil kahit na patayo sa shower room ay swak na swak ng walang tinutuntunang silya.
Hi! My name is Angela and I am ty three years old. Being a mother and a woman I want to talk about Life in the Philippines; what we have and what don’t have.
I didn’t have the opportunity to continue with my studies, but I love reading. I can tell you that since Gloria Macapagal Arroyo became president life changes.More graduate from university in our country have read about democracy, freedom and freedom of expression.
We have the ability to do great things. I think after GMA usurp power, a different class system has been created. If you have money, you can afford to send your children in good school to study. But the majority of people have to work hard to get what they want and often it is a struggle.
Like everyone else , I have suffered from a number of existing social and political problems.Unemployment is another one. My youngest brother is at university and will graduate later this year but he already knows finding a job will not be an easy task. Only the rich, a very small group, can have it all. Jobs go to children of those who run the country or have good connections.
How could GMA and her corrupt neocons think about going to America and watch Pacquiao fight when they know poverty and unemployment are on top of list of problems.
We filipinos need to get our priorities right. I want the government to listen to people like me.
Angel, welcome to cocoy’s delight. You are not all alone with your sufferings, all of us 80 million Filipinos except those close to the palace. I see and feel your sentiments with the poor patients who troop to the charity ward everyday for various illnesses. In the first place they should have not been sick should they be able to afford medicines, nutritious food, and healthy environment to live. This blog is for people like you and me who want to see social change and experience social equity in this part of the globe–equal opportunity for all. Unluckily Marcos was unseated and died before he could realize this dream. But we can be one with the aspirations of this great man by working out realistic solutions for social and economic change.
Kaya tayo ay nagiingay para madinig ang ating boses at magkaisa upang tutulan at labanan ang ginagawang panaabuso sa atin ng mga nasa kapangyarihan.
By the way if you don’t mind, may I as what do you mean by ty–is it twenty of thirty–but not… well never mind. Pinatatawa lang kita. Alam ko magkaedad lang tayo, heheheh.
