Japan: Fools Prepare To Rush In

UPDATE
Prime Minister Naoto Kan has survived a no confidence vote taken in the Diet today. While Kan's problems are far from over the morons who submitted the motion failed to understand the consequences of their actions if the vote had succeed. Japan would have been thrown into political turmoil as Kan and his ministers would have resigned en-mass or the Diet would be dissolved and a national election held while trying to help Northeast Japan recover from the earthquake, tsunami and the disaster at the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plant. Because funds are still needed to further help the recovery without a government all of this would have come to a complete halt. Yea the morons never considered any of that as power was more important.

Five Japanese opposition parties led by the Liberal Democratic Party and its collation partner New Komeito have filed a motion of no confidence against Prime Minister Naoto Kan. Even more astonishing is that failed former Prime Minister Yukio Hatayama who resigned in June of 2010 less than a year after taking office along with his mentor former Democratic Party of Japan Secretary General Ichiro Ozawa who's been indicted for excepting bribes from a construction company located in his constituency while two of his former aides are currently on trial over the same incident.

None of those involved is capable of leading anything more than a bake sale at the local elementary school. If they succeed in forcing Kan to resign allowing yet another person ascend to the office without having been elected.


The Liberal Democratic Party, New Komeito and Tachiagare Nippon (Sunrise Party of Japan) submitted a binding no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Naoto Kan on Wednesday evening, shaking the administration to the core as discontented members of the Democratic Party of Japan threatened to support it.

The move once again underlined the feud between Kan and archrival Ichiro Ozawa, the DPJ heavyweight who has held a grudge against Kan since they faced off in a party presidential election in September.

Ozawa, who is under indictment, has said he may side with the opposition force.
