A...Yes, Anon, I have unfortunately seen the videos. And yes too I have spent some time trying to explain to the good Senator on how inane and offensive those views are to Americans.<br /><br />However, I now understand that these views are part of a greater skepticism of the US and are far more "mainstream" among Japanese liberals than we understand. It is representative of an internationalist view in Japan. He is right that the Bush Admin has a lot more explaining to do; but some of his conclusions are simply wrong.<br /><br />I believe the Senator is well aware of Mikey's tricks, and is maybe more prepared than we think.Armchair Asiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03467997896704963410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8951305727311205556.post-56373278947574561682009-08-03T22:27:26.590-04:002009-08-03T22:27:26.590-04:00Well, are they happy with the LDP?
I can't he...Well, are they happy with the LDP?<br /><br />I can't help thinking the bearded one is setting the DPJ up for a fall, though.

It offers no specifics. That is not to say the DPJ's manifesto is much better but I am all for some change in Japan. Aso has been worthless on the one issue I am interested in where as Hatoyama has promised some change according to a recent interview by the Japan Times Herald. Hatoyama is in favor of signing the Hague and he is also in favor of joint custody, 2 issues that are gaining momentum in Japan and abroad. So perhaps Washington's Alliance Managers should get behind the DPJ because the DJP can't do any worse than the LDP.kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17476880092242227629noreply@blogger.com
