Sorry sarge you dont have a clue. Yanasey charges almost a 3rd more for the same car in the states. They have almost zero intrest in warrantying it. And what parts does japan supply to Chrysler, do you even have a clue dont go grab some postit note on your monitor. I have tore down plenty of new dodge and Chrysler cars and almost everything says made in Mexico or Canada, so do you still want to banter about something you have no clue about.
Here Ill give you an example. I used to import the US 300C and sell it wholesale for 4800000yen with plates and insurance. The same exact car from yanase was selling for 6200000yen before registration and tax. now tell me that japan isnt a closed market, you want more Motorola had to file suit to get into the japanese cell phone market. Dokomo which is owned by NTT had the only towers back then, they wouldnt let them in on their towers and the government wouldnt allow them to get a telecommunications license. Guess who is selling motorolas. You see you dont know squat about how bad the J gov manipulates trade inside its borders.
How this up until about 10 years ago you couldnt open a foreign owned business with out a japanese partner ( Keidetsu) you either needed a japanese national as the ceo which was more or less a franchise or a partnership with a company (usually your competition) to legally enter the market bigger than someone importing small quantities. Now you see how Yanase has the contract on Benz,Gm, VW, and so forth.

Thanks for cherry picking the facts of the case news people. Yes she was married by contract, but she never met the man, never went to his evil lair, or even knew she was married. Her mother found the contract, and took her from the house. Her mother filed for the divorce but that was overturned when the high court sent it back when the lower court wouldn't grant the divorce.
Likeitis. I'm glad you have your head on straight I only hope your common sence can rub off on a few here.

Well the far right the 20sum% of them didnt think he would get elected, and now dream up ways to sidetrack him from doing his job.
Shame on them for being so unpatriotic. Its sad the same people said it was unpatriotic to blindly follow the W into disaster.

Remember how some of these no talent imbeciles will take a hit song from the states write it with some crazy japanese lyrics act like its there own and then go make a million dollars on someone elses sound. I can think of a few here in japan and just one in the states, whats his name M Bolton.

Because the quite little tactics like the neko nya or nasal harmony doesn't sell. Half naked 11 year olds would get prosecuted, repetitious boy bands that all look the same would get boring, and questionable talent agencies would get hauled into court.
In a nut shell that sums up japanese pop groups.
A very very talented musician friend of mine explained it to me this way. In america you have so many influences, blues, jazz, big band, etc. We japanese only have einka as our roots everything else is imported. Its not that we cant sound or act like that its that its out of place for us. I know alot of japanese musicians and singers that can sing perfect English, play any composition, but its always a xerox of something else.

Yes and If I remember right dubya said he wasnt interested in UBL. So why torture a guy so many times?. Wasnt this the whole intention, to find UBL?. So what does that say to all of us, what its says to me is that dubyas use of the laws are different than the laws used on us.

Uh lib are you saying all the people were alqeda, you know this for fact or just these two men. How many were pulled from Iraq and treated to the same southern hospitality. Do you have some truthometer that tells you everyone of them were. How about all the secret locations, what were the techniques there. Funny how they perp walked the people from abu garab, told us all it was a few bad eggs, lied about how many times they in fact used these techniques, and then have the gall to spin it off on Obama somehow.
I wouldnt have a problem with it IF in fact it was only used on confirmed members, and with in reason. Waterboarding someone 180 some odd times is far from with in reason. IF you dont get any credible info the first couple of times what makes you think you will a few hundred.
Twisting the laws to suit your agenda, as well as persecuting the few bad apples for your dirty work is that something that me or any other american should be proud of.

Is this what dead eye dick wanted??
And sending another 4000 for cannon foder would that also be in your book, or the millions left dead, maimed, or displaced, what chapter would that be. I wouldn't have to much of a problem with all of this if dead eye dick and dubya actually took the fight to the perpetrators but instead veered off the road. You would think with all this intel someone would have had a map of the middle east.
By the way if I was treated like some of these guys I would probably say I pulled off 9/11.

So does a couple of times mean over 200. Really what legitimate information could you get from someone tortured almost 200 times. By the 5th or 6th time im sure he was singing any song they wanted to hear.
Funny a lot of the rightnuts here get all bent when a suspect is confined and confesses in japan but when dubya does it, its just fine and dandy.

I cant believe they took a Yemeni boat. All the Yemenis I have seen were packing ak47's and big curved knives in there waist. Hell even the little kids were packing. What they have to check their gear in before they embark?.

Running my mouth well you seem real tough talking nukes. Like I said in another post lace up your boots if your so tough. I never once gave pity to the pirates but you read it how you like. You sound more like a boy playing tough in the sand box.
I think I was the first to say use dummy ships and let them board. But you and your ilk seem to think blasting anything that moves is how anything should be handled.
Hows this work for you, say someone has your kid held up in a school SHOULD WE NUKE THE SCHOOL?. Yeah your logic is abundant.
By the way this didnt just start happening last week, I have been here in the ME for 2 years now, and while you and your armchair war supporters were still yelling nuke Iraq the pirates were grabbing ships. But hey your dear leader did nothing to stop it then, why all the rush now.
