Pine for Pine's Brilliantly Hilarious Post

After Obama won, we had heard of reports about the President's (Arroyo) attempts to get in touch with Obama. Anyway, I came across this blog entry from Pine for Pine. This blogger is brilliantly hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing after I finished reading the post.
PGMA haughtily (the presidential adjective) called Serge R (her press sec) about her "script" before calling Obama.
The notes has the following bullets:

Congratulate profusely.
Remind him of the 100-year friendship of Philippines and US.
Hawaii. Ilocanos in Hawaii.
Indonesia. Very near the Philippines.
Despite my corpulent and dumb husband and sons, I adore skinny, intelligent men.
African students in Philippines. Do not touch on drug and Nigerian scammers.
Remind him of Filipino chef and food tasters in White House.
Soul food.
Invite to Philippines
BUT do not talk about abortion and killing journalists


The note ready. She called for Serge to start calling Obama. Five minutes passed. No answer. try again. Ten minutes.
Hindi ba tayo mapapahiya diyan kagaya ng wrong number kay Gov. Baguilat?
Fifteen minutes.
Hay naku! Connect me now! Now! Now!
Five minutes. Busy.
The tension in the room can be sensed by a mosquito at nearby Pasig River.
Madame President, I think we got connected.
Haughtily, she grabbed the phone.
"Hello, President-elect. This is the Philippines President. I would like to congratulate you for being the first Black President..."
"Uh. Thank you. Salamat"
"You speak Filipino, President Obama?"
"Uh? This is Mayor Binay. Paano mo nalaman na tatakbo't manana..."
