They're 12 hours ahead of us
Total clip about twenty minutes
Duterte has the nick name of "The Punisher" because of his very hard stand against drugs, criminality and governmental corruption
You mind your work and I will mind mine
DUTERTE IS THE PHILIPPINES' 16TH PRESIDENT
Compare/Contrast
During his inauguration speech, he orders cabinet heads to do certain things right now
"DO them, we will walk together, do NOT do them and we will part sooner than later"
Obama better stay out of the Philippines
Rodrigo Duterte is more Janet Reno, a hard-core, anti-Christian left-wing nutjob who uses sensationalist, headline-grabbing actions to cover for utter incompetence. And who likes women.
I might have tried to articulate this before in FR, but ...
The politics of America and The Philippines reminds me of when a like minded group of men happened to born in the same time frame and gathered together to fight tyranny
Remember ... China is building a military outpost off the northern coast of The Philippines ... dumping sand and rock on a small atoll intill now they have a landing strip and buildings and a permanant population of military
The people want him ... warts and all ... because some people don't dwell on impossible perfection ...
They crucified Him
Until the next big TYPHOON comes along and wipes it all into the ocean......................
I'm not sure the SE to NW traditional typhoon pattern extends that far north ...
The improvement in crime is based on a poll that was “Freeped” by his supporters.

Pinging for your 2 cents worth.

Knarfster, it seems some people have a lot of opinions about the safety of Davao City, when they have never been there. I know from personal experience, that it is at least the safest city in the Philippines, if not one of the safest on earth.
It is that about 50/60 % (a guess only) of the people I've ever met, when using a superlative ( never, ever, always etc.) NEVER (correctly used because I asked them ) have even tried, tasted, been to (etc.)
And I have concluded that those people are equally liars (to themselves) about other areas in their lives
I never did that survey as a Christian, but if I should ever again, that will be one of the elements
I spent a pleasant, stoned weekend in Boston around 69 or 70 asking men and women .. "Without looking .. What does your T shirt say ?"
I concluded about 75 or 80% of the women had no idea or were fuzzy on the wording (couldn't remember if it was "I'm with stupid" or "I'm with him/her" ... but they knew they were with SOMEONE)
Men, on the other hand almost always knew what their T shirts said
Interesting, unscientific factoid I never forgot
The people making stupid statements about Duterte or Davao City are probably all white people that call all Asians gooks .... (unscientific guess)
No, an online poll was “FReeped” (Or Ron Pauled.) The nation apparently just went hard-left. Don’t praise a dictator just because he’s cool with murdering journalists.
Of course! Because ANYONE who disagrees with you HAS to be racist!
Boy, you’re really covering all the Leftist talking points today, aren’t you?
