Obamarama claims victim

January 27, 2009

This news report cracked me up.

Now, I don’t mean to make light of the tragic end of the victim, but really, it just shows just how the global community has shrunk over the years.

Who would have thought that the new US president’s influence would creep to my city of 1.4 million people, south of Philippines? And who would have thought that two drunks could have a very intelligent conversation? Really now, Obama’s bloodline?

That’s sick right there!

It’s just sad that things took turn for the worse between two friends.


Friend stabbed dead
over Obama debate

By Guy Lorenzo Lao

An argument over United States President Barack Obama lineage led to a death of a 36-year-old farmer last Monday afternoon.

Erlinda Revisa, 49, an owner of a ‘sari-sari’ store in Marilog proper, told PO3 Rolando Mitran of Marilog Police that neighbors, Narciso Amban, 36, and alias ‘Toto’ Rondia were drinking when their topic turned towards the new US president.

The police officer said Rondia and Amban argued whether Obama had a Muslim blood. Amban allegedly insulted his friend in the middle of their argument which prompted Rondia to pull out his hunting knife and stabbed Amban in the chest.

Rondia left the scene while Revisa called help from the Marilog Police. Responding members of Central 911 declared the victim dead on the spot due to a single wound on his chest.

Mitran said they are still tracking down the suspect while Amban’s body now lies at St. Peter Funeral Parlor in Calinan.
