Looks like I might finally have a chance. Not only is he a bonafide super hero (G-8), and world-famous politician, but the man's a PLAYA. Hot damn, look out. How the hell do you say "Sugar Daddy" in Japanese? Anyone?
Koizumi is a family politician. And that family hails from the Zaibatsu who profitted and financed Japan's share of WWII. The LDP is the Zaibatsu party, which means they are right of the US Republicans. And finally, the Zaibatsu themselves employed slave labor from Korea for the first half of the 20th century, as well as using POWs as slave labor through out WWII. This man is no saint. In his father's diary, there was a letter for his son, explaining how his father had guaranteed his son would have control of the LDP in the future. And there he is. But if you need to have a Sugar Daddy, Koizumi could really tuck you in at night. In Japanese, Sugar Daddy is said, パトロン which is pronounced PA TOE ROE N (that's right -- Japan uses a Japanized version of patron).
I just know you were one of those children that took distinct pleasure in pointing out to his classmates that neither Santa Claus nor the Tooth Fairy actually existed.
And now a dose of sobering truth....

Even the Easter Bunny continues to hop along the Bunny Trail in my house.
But when I found out Superman wasn't real, I nearly cried. It also brought Batman, Aquaman and the Flash into question....
