It shows that the US knows no bounds in injecting their kind of putrid concerns for poor Ugandans.
- Hill Roberts
Why the Americans, all of a sudden, are showing "concern" for the Ugandans because three years ago, that African country discovered oil---billions of oil reserves are now the subject of the Americans' interest in this once-forgotten backwater.

Conoynism - the act of conning the citizens when a president pretends to work purely for photo opportunity purposes.

The US is aware of what they do to other countries and what they don't actually do for them. -

From, Ban American Military Presence in the Philippines, the newest sister site, now with 930 members and counting. Many Filipinos are beginning to realise that the American foreign policy-makers aren't what they seem.)It would be nice if the whole of Mindanao joined our pressure group since it's the place where the Americans have been bombing civilians and the mainstream media aren't reporting their activities with interest.

Sometimes, hypocrisy keeps the world from turmoil; diplomacy and hypocrisy share the same strange idealism to maintain the peace and prolong mutual understanding.

Dear Joe and fellow members,
I will be in Madrid for a week on the 27th March. We are taking the AVE (Spain's bullet train and the best in Europe). We've never tried it since the connection between Malaga and Madrid has been realised a few years' ago. See you all later! Hill

Kris Aquino can run for president for as long as her tongue is tied to her navel.

Dear Wellchecked,
I don't know what to say with what you posted. First of all, Quotable (?) Quotes are all my work. Now, if you are quoting someone's work, then you will have to find another place for it. Mine is a collection which has been going on for over three years here and other sites. What is published here in my space are all mine, meaning, your quote, because it's not even yours, is not quotable. Besides, I don't particularly like that quote you posted since I truly hate the F word. Kindly take it down or the moderator will have to do it. Find your own space please but not where my collection is found. Thank you. Hill Roberts

Greed is the very emblem of America's thirst for world domination, absolute power and integrated imperialism. America is now open to criticism now that we know better. - HR

So it's not anymore electric grid but electric greed. - HR
(On the ongoing power crisis in Mindanao where Pres Aquino promised to do it in two years. I ask, two years? My goodness, the Japanese had tsunami, earthquake, floods, nuclear power leaks, houses flattened, roads disappeared, yet they managed to do many things in 12 months!)

What are the chances of political reforms when corruption is heaving like Manila's heavy traffic?

Nationalism, for lack of a better word, must be ingrained but not literally forced into the young and younger Filipinos. Our fervent wish is to have a sound, reasonable, logical kind of nationalism where everyone enjoys to be enjoined, not forcibly accosted to join in the marathon of closeted nationalism. - HR

Hello Hill ! I'm happy you will be in return to having high spirits. I really love the jokes. Just to allow you to understand that I was actually so nervous when I study about your own "sad family memories". Hope to read more articles from you here.Catch you later on...

Hi and thank you, Isabel! Glad you like all the jokes (but with underlining seriousness), hahaha. I need to refresh my memory on "sad family memories" though since I actually don't remember ever writing something of this nature. You can of course check my writings in "My Thoughts Exactly" re Afghanistan, A Christmas Sense and of course, my Lisbon travels. Thanks, dear. Hope to see you again. Hill

The most difficult things in life is when we think that things are difficult to solve--and do nothing.

These public servants will never realise their own inaction for as long as they are reassured by their American masters that they will do the dog tricks in an ever-increasing cycle of a cuckold relationship.
- HR
(From, Ban American Military Presence in the Philippines, and why the country's leaders, past and present, will always rely on the US to do the dirty job for them, compromising our sovereignty, national pride and the prospect of needless deaths when a full scale battle ensues in Mindanao, where the Americans are settled in nicely, without Senate or House or Representatives' approval.) After 100 years, Filipino politicians remain the same in their approach to peace and security.)
