Aso has no plan but scattering money. His whole life had been only wasting money from his child-hood. And he had been talking about it boastfully. Probably, he wishes to talk it to the world now.

hoserfella, you were right. LDP members were clever once. But recently, the intelligent abilities of LDP members seem to be decreasing. A considerable number of us have noticed that in spite of NHK's biased reports.
Posted in: LDP leaders are out of touch with the public and they don't even realize it. The prevalence of hereditary politicians is one reason the public is getting sick of the LDP.

Mountains, hills and forests cover over two thirds of Japan. This is a little known fact among foreigners, I suppose. Here are some primeval forests and many natural forests still now. Our ancestor had protected and respected these forests.
But...The present Government, especially ministry of land and ministry of agriculture, is destroying these forests. We must make the Japanese Government stop these wrong policies, for the interests of humanity.

I had posted same comments on JT and 2 Channel or Yahoo Japan BBS several times. Only JT had deleted my comments, sometimes partly. I considered and got answer, 2Channel and Yahoo admit aggressive comments also.

Her accounting is not exactly clear, because her computers had been stolen and account books had been burnt out last year. I wonder that the robber and the arsonist have not been arrested yet.

She is not a granddaughter of Uichi Noda. She is an adopted daughter of him. She was born as a daughter of son of Uichi Noda's lover (but her father was a child of former marriage). Then Seiko was adopted into Uichi Noda in 1984. This is not the secret.

Therefore everyone make great effort.
Tomiaki Fukuda, head of Japan's Olympic delegation, criticized baseball team(and football team) yesterday. He said it was difficult to win the games with a little practice and lack of preparation, as referring to baseball team.
I agree with him. It is not the preparations that appear on TV for chatter and run for torch relay.

Hoshino's big mouth said "We need no medal but gold". Yeah, he has performed what he said.

This is the greatest Olympics equal to Berlin Olympics in 1936. National interests were more important than human rights and welfare of individual, in both Olympics. They tried to hide oppression of peoples. They had taken houses by force from inhabitants, and constructed big cages. The director of fake performance deeply hurt little girl's feeling, for national interest.
And we could see big events. How we had been cheated easily.

pathat,
I will apologize, if my comment had obstructed your discussion. But these games are not only baseball game but also cultural matter for the Japanese, I think. Even many people who don't well know baseball are interested in these games, because media incited people. And Hoshino appeared on TV again and again, then he preached us morals that had no relationship with baseball, sometimes it's political. I want you to know these situations, but I'm sorry.

About 400 comments have been posted on Yahoo Japan BBS. 95% of them including me blamed Hoshino. Few persons blamed the players.
Yeah, we are wholesome.

TV stations can't criticize Hoshino because they had been flattering him. Hoshino appeared on talk shows and TV ads that have no relationship with baseball very often. And he had talked about morals arrogantly, and sometimes about politics. He was not director of baseball but TV personality. For TV stations, to criticize Hoshino means self-abnegation.

This shrine doesn't enshrine the soldiers of shogunate who fought for Japan in Boshin civil war. It is nonsense.
