It is not often that we see politicians making statements in solidarity with the Philippine government overall (as opposed to solidarity limited along partisan lines at best).

While this is not true like all the other parody articles I’ve written, it’s one that I wish was true. Ladies and gentlemen, in observance of this year’s Philippine independence day and the oncoming approach of the 2016…
