Orszag and now Romer. Anyone care to bet they wanted some distance from the bankster-hugging debacle of Obourbon's great cat food restoration? Reputations are commodities too, and even the most shameless technocrats get edgy when the scape goat trickle-up starts looking good in the throne room.

That's very unfair to Japan. Japan only tried to conquer the Pacific -- at most. It was the US that wanted to conquer the world, and is still working on it.
