Not downs syndrome. Fucking genius. No wonder you're a loser. I'm glad you think you're superior than the Japanese(you're not). You're just a loser who couldn't deal with the harsh realities of the Western world, and consequently has to belittle the Japanese because of your inferiority complex. <br /><br />Go ahead Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7420606.post-49340564032358856442011-01-20T09:08:34.281+09:002011-01-20T09:08:34.281+09:00I agree - the Internet and the dominance of a 24-h...I agree - the Internet and the dominance of a 24-hour news cycle, a beast that must be fed, certainly widens and intensifies the situation. <br />But I don't think it is at all partisan to insist that this climate really didn't exist prior to the second Clinton administration and the rise of Fox News.
