and I thought Bush said stupid things
BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Japan's gaffe-prone politicians
Two things of note:

- I had no idea Japanese politicians said such boneheaded things
Not like our own politicians don't say stupid things ... maybe it just doesn't get publicized?
This is quite the funny read.

BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Japan killing comments spark row
Perhaps it's a bad translation, but to use the term "vigorous women" when describing a middle-school murder is just bizarre.
Japan, here I come?
