The Japanese justice minister had to resign after saying that his job is easy because he has 2 phrases that work whenever he's stuck for an answer.

The phrases are:
  1. "'I will not comment on specific cases."
  2. "We are dealing with the matter in line with the law and evidence."
Can you imagine an American politician even getting in much trouble for a wiseass remark like that?

The Phila Eagles had a head coach who answered the first question at every postgame press conference with the phrase "Like I said".

Lacking the ethnic and racial diversity to feed upon (as opposed to.. say the US) political correctness takes sillier and sillier twists.

Exactly. Deal with any bureaucracy anywhere in the world and it is immediately brought home to you that the purpose of said bureaucracy is to thwart you. And yet given the choice most people in most countries vote for an ever growing bureaucracy. Go figger.

Isn't that a required response that they teach to you at Congressional Orientation Class?

Only a niggardly sense of proportion would allow these things to happen in America!

When will Obama resign because he relys on

"Let me be clear ..."

"..., but ..."

and

repeatedly reminding people of whatever (google it)

Their representatives do. That's different. Representatives promise to make life cushy for Constiuents, but then turn around and establish a bureaucracy.

Can you imagine an American politician with the self-awareness to realize that he has an easy job and the honesty to admit it?
