You have to respect people who love their country

A Filipino Senator was quite upset over Alec Baldwin’s joke about getting a mail order bride from the Philippines. I of course do not support whipping up on Mr. Baldwin even if he is a liberal. What I admire is a leader who doesn’t disrespect his country and to the contrary is willing to vigorously stand for its honor. Maybe the Democrat regime in Washington could stop apologizing for a minute and learn. You see in other nations, it is not cool to dump on your own country and (gasp) you may even defend it against those who do.
Philippine Sen. Ramon Revilla said Monday that Baldwin’s comment was “insensitive and uncalled for” and an insult to millions of Filipinos.
He called the actor is “arrogant” and said he is apparently unaware that the Philippines has a law against mail-order brides.
“Let him try to come here in the Philippines and he’ll see mayhem,” Revilla said, using a local idiom that implies the speaker will personally administer a beating.
