Japan launches campaign urging young people to drink more booze. Domo arigato (hic) Mr. Roboto!

The Japanese government wants the nation’s youth to get drunk for their country.

Officials have launched a campaign to lure more young people into buying booze so the debt-ridden country can reap tax revenue from liquor sales, according to reports. 

The “Sake Viva!” campaign — created by the country’s tax agency — seeks business proposals from young people or groups with ideas on how to “revitalize” the nation’s booze industry, Bloomberg reported.

No one has died from radiation at Fukushima. Anti-nuclear activists hardest hit.

You may be surprised to learn that no one has died from radiation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. And that must be killing anti-nuclear activists.

You may be surprised to learn that no one has died from radiation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. And that must be killing anti-nuclear activists, because nothing would do more for their cause than nuclear radiation raining death down on thousands.

No one's died. No one's sick. Well, that's not quite true. The anti-nuke people are pretty sick about it.

The Australian, one of the largest newspapers down under, has the unexpected story:

Amazingly, despite the devastation of the site, there have been no radiation-related deaths at Fukushima so far, and only two workers have been hospitalised as a precaution.

The only people to have perished at Fukushima were a man who became trapped in the console of a crane during the earthquake and two who were swept away by the tsunami. The entire toll from the earthquake, remember, is estimated at about 25,000.

While it is not yet over, and radioactivity continues to come out of the devastated plant, the good news is that there are still precisely zero deaths attributable to the release of radiation at the plant, and on the basis of doses received, zero are expected.

No effects on health or significant contamination cases have been identified among the general public evacuated from the area, despite the fact the accident has devastated the plant, and involved fires, explosions, and releases of radioactivity. If there is a single lesson from Chernobyl for the Japanese, it’s that in the years to come misinformation is likely to be more dangerous than radiation.

So just as more people died in Teddy Kennedy’s car than at Three Mile Island, more people died in a crane at Fukushima than died of radiation.

Ouch. Japanese whalers 1, Greenpeace protesters 0

We really are torn on the Greenpeace vs. Japanese whaler issue. On one hand, there’s really seems to be no good reason to slaughter whales. On the other hand, Greenpeace opposes it, so we tend to root for the whalers.

We really are torn on the Greenpeace vs. Japanese whaler issue. On one hand, there’s really seems to be no good reason to slaughter whales. On the other hand, Greenpeace opposes it, so we tend to root for the whalers.

This video shows the Greenpeace lunatics putting their boat, the S.S. Minnow Sea Shepherd, directly in the path of a large Japanese security ship. The Japanese need the security ships, by the way, to prevent harassment from the Greenpeace lunatics during whaling operations. The security ship “shoots” the protesters with high-pressure hoses to keep it at bay. 


Naturally, the Greenpeacers now claim that they were “rammed.”

In a technical sense, it may be true since one ship did, in fact, hit the other one. But it ignores (a) the fact that the smaller boat put itself directly in the path of the larger ship, and (b) the fact that the 491-ton Shonan Maru 2 (maximum speed 12 knots) could outmaneuver Greenpeace’s nimble 13-ton, 45-knot trimaran.

Far as we’re concerned, the optimum outcome of these situations would be if the whales all got away, but the Greenpeace boats didn’t.

Anyone out there ever eat whale meat? Does it taste anything like chicken?

We swear this is our final Obama bowing to Emperor Akihito story

Based on this photo, this administration believes the only thing more powerful than the president of the United States making points to your face is the president of the United States making those same points to your chest.

Obama bows to the Japanese emperor. And bows. And bows. And bows. And bows. And bows. And bows.

The media is now reporting that President Obama bowed when meeting Japanese Emperor Akihito. But it wasn’t just one bow. It was seven bows. Fact is, he was bobbing up and down like one of those old Happy Drinking Birds.

When President Obama bowed the Saudi King the left leapt to his defense and said he was actually bending over because he was so much taller than Abudllah.

This should be fun: Japan’s first lady says she was abducted by aliens and knew Tom Cruise in a prior life

Miyuki Hatoyama, wife of Japan’s Prime Minister-elect, Yukio Hatoyama, is a lifestyle guru, a macrobiotics enthusiast, an author of cookery books, a retired actress, a divorcee, and a fearless clothes horse for garments of her own creation, including a skirt made from Hawaiian coffee sacks. But there is more, much more. She has travelled to the planet Venus. And she was once abducted by aliens.

She's the first First Lady to be abducted by aliens and he's the first Prime Minister with a mullet.

Sure, Michelle Obama has been anointed Most Stylish First Lady In History and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is undoubtedly the hottest first lady ever and Italy’s first lady is busy divorcing her playboy husband. But most of the world’s first ladies just blend into the background.

That’s about to change according to the Independent:

Miyuki Hatoyama, wife of Japan’s Prime Minister-elect, Yukio Hatoyama, is a lifestyle guru, a macrobiotics enthusiast, an author of cookery books, a retired actress, a divorcee, and a fearless clothes horse for garments of her own creation, including a skirt made from Hawaiian coffee sacks. But there is more, much more. She has travelled to the planet Venus. And she was once abducted by aliens.

The 62-year-old also knew Tom Cruise in a former incarnation – when he was Japanese – and is now looking forward to making a Hollywood movie with him. “I believe he’d get it if I said to him, ‘Long time no see’, when we meet,” she said in a recent interview. But it is her claim in a book entitled “Very Strange Things I’ve Encountered” that she was abducted by aliens while she slept one night 20 years ago, that has suddenly drawn attention following last Sunday’s poll.

Perfect. Hatoyama can remember meeting Tom Cruise in a prior life, but Michelle Obama can’t remember meeting Bill Ayers in this life.

Chavez wants Obama to apologize to Japan. And every other country while he’s at it.

Hugo Chavez urging all Venezuelan men over the age of 50 to get annual prostate exams.
Hugo Chavez urging all Venezuelan men over the age of 50 to get annual prostate exams.
President Obama thought the world would love him if he simply apologized to the Europeans and Turks for Iraq.

So much for that theory. Now it turns out that everybody and their brother wants an apology. Hugo Chavez evens wants us to apologize to the Japanese.

“It is very encouraging that the president of the United States called for the end of and the destruction of nuclear arms in the world,” Hugo Chavez told reporters in Tokyo, where he signed an investment deal with Japan.

The United States is “the planet’s number one nuclear power. It is also the only country in the world that dropped the atomic bomb,” Chavez stated. “At any rate, I think America should apologize to Japan.”

This, of course, is back to back to back with Fidel Castro demanding an apology and Iran lining up for one, too.

Let’s just apologize now. Japan, we’re sorry you attacked us and we kicked your asses in World War II. Venezuela, we’re sorry you were stupid enough to “elect” this megalomaniac. Iran, we’re sorry you’re governed by a group of 13th century lunatics. Cuba, we’re sorry Fidel Castro is still alive. And as an added bonus, United Nations, we’re sorry we ever rented you space in New York city.

Anyone else want an apology? Get in line.

Bill Maher takes potshots at military. Decorated former Staff Sergeant fires back.

Is there anyone on television more distasteful than Bill Maher?

The liberal HBO talk show host has done it again, this time insulting the U.S. military

Here’s what the so-called comedian had to say on his March 27 HBO show:

“Forget about bringing the troops home Iraq – we need to get the troops home from World War II,” Maher said. “Can anybody tell me why in 2009, we still have more than 50,000 troops in Germany and 30,000 in Japan? At some point these people are going to have to learn to rape themselves.”

The insults continued, but let’s get to the response from former Army Staff Sergeant David Bellavia, author of “House to House.” He’s already won a Silver Star and a Bronze Star and has been recommended for the Medal of Honor.

“While Democrats want to accuse the right in America of being hijacked by the talking points of Rush Limbaugh and talk radio,” Bellavia noted, “it is more than a little odd to me that the greatest minds on the left today are community organizers, washed up former sports commentators and stand up comedians. It’s insensitive and hurtful.”

“The fact is that the German people would be the first to protest our leaving their country,” Bellavia continued. “Areas like Vilseck would have no economy without American business and young foolish soldiers emptying their bank accounts on the German local scene.”

The Fallujah veteran said he wasn’t surprised by Maher remarks and explained many on the left like Maher don’t understand the concept of military service.

“Maher’s comments are nothing surprising to me,” Bellavia said. “Newsflash – the left doesn’t get the military. They don’t understand how a person can see something bigger then themselves. And the vast majority of liberals have zero idea of what we face overseas and moreover, cannot understand any situation that could possibly involve taking the life at war. They never have. And they never will.”

Funny thing is, there’s probably some Taliban with a satellite dish outside his cave in Waziristan keeping track of which western “comedians” will be the first to be eliminated when they take over.

Maher’s only hope is that he’s so completely unfunny that the Taliban never figure out he’s a supposed to be a comedian.
