Heh heh, glad to make you smile! Unfortunately, what my government is doing is 100% not comedy.

Is it the nuclear exposure?

Nothing this government has done under Bush is funny. Just sad. And it seems after your other post that Japan has the same problem with getting out the vote. It is sad to see so many disaffected and uninterested people, who have the privilege of living in democracy, let it all slip away. And we do this while telling others how they should become more like us? Yeah, we are bestest roll models ever! (imagine Carlos Mencia saying that line)
