jojobama

are you kidding me?


"Philippine Daily Inquirer, INQUIRER.net  11/12/2008

MANILA, Philippines—Jejomar “Jojo” Binay is embarking on an audacious journey from the “Republic of Makati” to the Republic of the Philippines as the country’s very own “Jojo Bama”—much like US President-elect Barack Obama...

...More than 2,000 supporters, some trucked in from the provinces, carried streamers that read “Obama of the Philippines” and “Jojo Binay for President” as they gathered at the Makati City Hall for a 7 a.m. thanksgiving Mass on Binay’s 66th birthday...

...Clad in barong, the diminutive mayor likened to Obama for his dark skin said he accepted the people’s clamor “all over the Philippines” for him to continue serving the country...

...Reacting to jokes that Binay will be the first black Pinoy chief executive, much like the US president-elect, Estrada said laughing, “Already, we call him Jojo Bama...”

We just don't get it do we?
