They love America and they love their heritage. And I reminded the President that I am reminded of the great talent of the -- of our Philippine-Americans when I eat dinner at the White House."

    I never thought anything Bush could every say again could make me cringe (I am numb to it now) but this did it. It sounds just like the type of joke McCain would make - you know "Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomba Iran" and his stupid "scum-sucking bottom feeding lawyer" jokes when being introduced by a Naval Attorney. Cringe. Cringe.
