hala, kalain ni oging no nagparegistered sa SANTIAGO ISABELA nagkonsehal sija didto, which means nag paregister cj didto nga didto sija nagpoju. di ba 1 year usa ka nga naka reside sa mismong lugar (permanenty)hen you are allowed to run for a political position. giunsa man to nj nga midagan man cj sa southern leyte at that time. labihan jud diay ka evil ang ilang intention para lang maka kuarta. mao diri if mangutana naku mga puti about the philippine politics, moingon ko ug na kasulod ka sa politics madatu ka way oras.

mao lagi nga dili na jud mo boto
sa manga mercados kay MANGINGILAD
og they are just lining their pockets.
di pa jud mo motagam.ambot lang ninju,
@non-maasinhon:
Since you started you comment with “most of you people…”, then I take that you have included me in your abusive ranting.
Your comments pretty much proved the reason why you purposefully hide your true identity – a type of a commentator who is a backboneless coward and does not take responsibility for his own actions. If you indeed claim to be a non-maasinhon, who is a non-resident and does not pay taxes, then it is absolutely none of your damned business to meddle with the affairs of the province folks who had gotten sick and tired of the ineptitude and corruption of your Mercado friends! You are the ultra moron who grossly erred in assuming that we, the “whiners”, want to level up Southern Leyte’s economic status with Manila’s. In our lifetime, that will probably never happen. But we do have the right to complain about our elected officials when we continually see the escalating economic regression of our province that they are supposed to control from going under. If it’s true that you are not a Maasinhon, then you don’t really know what you’re talking about. However, with the foulness of your mouth’s stench, I can only consider that your parents (if you ever knew them) have pathetically failed in properly rearing you up during your growing years. As such, you obviously became an immature retard.
This warzone I am currently in just challenges me with the likes of you and make me love the feeling of intimidation by the strength of the words in your comments. Said intimidation is basically synonymous with what the Mercado brothers can inflict when sheer political desperation takes its toll on them. I can specifically remember years ago when your friend Oging Mercado fired upon Odong Saludo whom I believe was and still is his uncle. He was such a pathetic blunder to his family bar none!
You flaunt that your friend, Damian Mercado, has done so much for the province. Then prove it! Talk is cheap, so prove it with your deeds. If you want to productively participate in our exchange of viewpoints here, we welcome all information (except the foul stench of your mouth) that alludes to his official achievements that we can verify for ourselves. Otherwise, all that you just blew was your own flatulence that vented the other way!
People like you is a worthless waste of this site’s space!
@non-maasinhon
what a foul mouth you have. how were you brought up by your parents.
were they absent when you were growing up. that you are sooooooo
bastus.
taga asa man ka io. tubong kanto.
@ non-maasinhon
you are a HUMAN GARBAGE.
write here again, that proves this description to you even more.
the more you will insist that your good friend Mercados are morally and intellectually upright civil servants in our province, the more we will shame them here to eternity; and thanks to you.

Great my good friend! Your website is so eye-catching that I think loads of men and women will adore it similar to me. Have you any idea Nike Shox Shoes ? Like your blog, I enjoy the Nike Shox Deliver quite definitely. For they also can easily provide me great sense. So I wish that a lot more individuals can realize the fantastic feel from New Air Jordans .
