Japan's conservative party ousted after 54 years in power.

[Kitschum]

So now do the LDP have to commit seppuku?

[Dis]

so when do they start attacking countries again?

[Sava]

9:21 am hawaiian time... tomorrow

[Drake Tungsten]

Japan started attacking the rest of the world years ago through its deviant pornography.

[Traianvs]

I've also been told that many Japanese want the American troops on Japanese soil to leave. Can't verify that since I only heard it on the radio, but maybe there is something to that resentment, anyone?

[OzzyKP]

Drake's point is still well taken. Conservative/Liberal doesn't apply at all in Japan, and as evinced, what leftist party would ever cut taxes.

Obama pledged to, and then successfully cut taxes.

Democracy in Japan.

[Dinner]

Meet the new party, same as the old party.

raping of their women didn't help things. Strategically we really need the troops there, but if they kick us out, we can't do much about it.

[Drake Tungsten]

Strategically we really need the troops there

Why?

[Dis]

North Korea

[dannubis]

Haven't you got a ****load of troops in South Korea ?

[Dis]

depends on what you consider ****loads. For us, it's alot. Compared to the North Korean army, well I'd say we'd be overrun very quickly.

Then again, to contradict my earlier statement, one wonders if the days of power projection are long gone. An archaic 20th century concept of a superpower. The new war is terrorism and perhaps in the future, cyber terrorism.

I'm not sure we're at that point yet, but the practice of having troops stationed abroad is nearing an end. Unless we think we can keep bullying nations for oil, however.

Yeah, they can rape all the Chinese women they want, but the moment our soldiers do it to them they're all "wah, wah! war crimes, war crimes!" Pussies.

Uh, he raised taxes, mate.

He repealed the Bush tax cuts.

Hey, that takes some cojones. Especially not apologizing for raping all those Chinese women and then demanding apologies from us!
