WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – Almost one-third of Republican primary voters would support bombing the fictional kingdom of Agrabah, according to a report released by Public Policy Polling on Friday.

More than 530 Republican primary voters were polled this week on their support for Republican candidates and foreign policy issues including banning Muslims from entering the U.S., Japanese internment camps from the second world war and bombing Agrabah, the kingdom from Disney’s animated classic, Aladdin.

Of those who voted in favor of bombing the Aladdin Kingdom, 75 percent favored banning singers Lea Salonga and Brad Kane from the country (despite the fact that Kane is American) , who provided the voices behind “A Whole New World,” the theme song from Aladdin.

‘It is important not only to keep out Muslims from entering the U.S. but also to make sure that those who support them and promote their cause not be allowed in this country,’ one Republican poll respondent said.

HENERAL LUNA LOSES OSCAR BID BUT MAY STILL WIN PHILIPPINE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS

HOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Heneral Luna may have failed in its bid to win the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, but hopes are still high that Luna will be elected next president of the Philippines.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences today released the “first cut” list of foreign film submissions that still have the chance of being nominated for the Oscars, and Heneral Luna was not one of them.

But in the field of Philippine presidential politics, where all the declared candidates (Jejomar Binay, Grace Poe, Mar Roxas, Rodrigo Dueterte and Mirian Defensor-Santiago) seem to have some serious problems or baggage, the chances of Heneral Luna being elected as a write-in candidate are getting better by the day.

If elected, Heneral Luna will go down in world history as the first ever to be elected president, post-mortem.
