Bush's cook

President Bush recently met with the president of the Phillipines, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, to discuss US aid for victims and damage from recent typhoon activity. http://www.reuters.com/article/latestCrisis/idUSN24477112

Let's face it, Bush doesn't know when he's being a dickhead, no matter how obvious. Bush didn't think he was doing any harm by mentioning that his cook is Filipino and most wouldn't see any harm done. Except for some Filipinos.

Every American president since McKinley has wiped their ass with the Filipinos. McKinley allowed wholesale slaughter of Filipinos who wanted their independence. Ruthless racist bastards like "Black" Jack Pershing were allowed immunity to punishment for the slaughter of thousands of Filipino women, children, elderly, and non-combatants in general. The American name for the Filipinos at the time: Niggers and also, Injuns.The only thing that stopped the slaughter was that Europe noticed how savage the US was in it's war against the Filipinos. So the US humanized them to some degree, gave them western dress and the English language, and trained them to be good subjects. The old "look at the monkey" shit. These dumb fucking peckerwoods in the American military should have realize just how "not savage" the Filipinos were by how quickly they picked up English and became tri-lingual, speaking their own dialects, Spanish, and English. The Americans spoke only English. Within time, the Imperialist Americans that decided to live in the Philippines saw the resources, for the men, the beauty of the Pinays (Filipina women), and the never ending group of people to exploit as houseboys, cooks, maids, nurses, field workers, and whatever they could replace Black Americans with. This really showed in the military. At one time it was trendy for officers to have Filipino porters in the US Navy. My father who was a Filipino born in the Philippines served in the US Navy 30 years beginning in the earl 1960s, as what else, an officer's porter. My dad was a college educated man who was in martial condition from being a decathlete and cyclist and yet he could only be an officer's porter.

Of course, adding Filipinos as porters removed Blacks from the job. For some reason the United States just can't see anyone with dark skin, black hair, slanted eyes, and a rice heavy diet as competent.

American "heroes" Teddy and Franklin Roosevelt and General MacArthur, were responsible for the loss of thousands of Filipino lives, including when MacArthur disposed of thousands to save his sorry ass. Some of the Filipinos that fought along side MacArthur have survived and are still waiting for the citizenship promised to them at the end of WWII! And now Bush has showed that in the 110 years of our meddling in the lives of Filipinos, nothing has really changed.
