Number's up for Aso & Co.



Look, Our Man was only messing around when he suggested the Dark Side were ready to ditch Our Dear Leader T. Aso. But, now that looks like that could come to pass. Seems Aso's cabinet's "popularity" has sunk again to 17.5 percent, which watchers of auspicious numbers will appreciate, was the VAT (sales tax) rate in the UK before the shit hit the financial fan. The same poll found that 47.8 percent of voters were plumping for the opposition (coincidentally the same percentage of Japanese who committed suicide in 2004 who were unemployed), while the Dark Side can only muster 18.7 percent backing (coincidentally almost the exact same percentage of residents of Our Man's household who pee standing up).

Dang, gotta get rid of this bracelet thing, it's playing havoc with Our Man's logic. (And that's a picture of Legs and Co., lifted from here, not Aso and Co. - Editor. Oh and while we're at it, how many links do you need in one post, who do you think you are Observing Japan or something?)
