Can You Really Blame This Guy?

Japanese Finance Minister Shoichi Nakagawa resigned amid accusations he was drunk at a Group of Seven press conference.

Can you blame him, though? Japan's economy is shrinking by over 12% a year. If you were in charge of trying to turn that around, wouldn't you want to get hammered every day and as early as possible?

Rachel Maddow had a clip of him speaking on her show last night. Honestly, it was quite something.

Perhaps Nakagawa-sama was engaging in the fine Japanese tradition of speaking one's mine with a little wine and then blaming the wine for anything offensive. Gomen nasai! O-sake ga imashita!
