(CNN)Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte called the US ambassador to his country a "gay son of a bitch" in a speech, prompting US diplomats to raise the issue with their Filipino counterparts in Washington.
Recounting Secretary of State John Kerry's visit to the country, Duterte, speaking Tagalog, said that he was feuding with US Ambassador Philip Goldberg. "I was with (incoming defense chief General) Delfin Lorenzana. We talked to Kerry, he was actually OK because I had a fight with his ambassador. I told him: 'your ambassador is a gay son of a bitch.'"

We have become Babylon...exporting our evil to the rest of the world. God is going to destroy us if we don't turn our lives around and make some right decisions on leadership.

Elizabeth Trudeau said the department had summoned the Filipino chargé d'affaires to "clarify" Duterte's remarks. "We have asked the Philippines chargé to come into the State Department to clarify those remarks," she said at a briefing.
How do you 'clarify' a statement like that?

It’s not an insult if it’s true.

Lest we forget, “...when they see the smoke of her burning, standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.”

Apparently this is the tagalog for "Your Ambassador is a gay son of a bitch". Or as close as Google will get me, anyway.
Ang iyong ambassador ay isang bakla na anak ng isang asong babae
Best first phase in a new language ever.

The US government seems not to be getting the message that the rest of the world doesn’t share the current American vogue for homosexuality.

Good for him!
What’s Japan got to say about Caroline’s ambassadorship?
By all means send homosexuals to Muslim nations along with their retinues of gay folk.

And they will love him all the MORE for giving a stiff upper lip to Mr. Obama. The world has lost its respect for the WH.

Whatever Goldberg is, Duterte is no prize. He’s an sob himself.
