At least with Lee Seung-yeon, I can use the opportunity to post titty-pics, but with the recent collapse of the Grand National Party in general, and the personal disgrace of Choe Byeong-nyeol in particular, no similar option are available to the blogger. Yesterday, we watched the rather sad spectacle of GNP party head Choe Byeong-nyeol trying as best he could to shift blame for his party’s shite state of affairs onto former party head and presidential candidate Lee Hoi-chang. Today, junior GNP lawmakers called for Choe’s scalp, and even the Chosun Ilbo — the Chosun Ilbo — has not only turned its back on its former editor (Choe), but suggested that the party simply be left to die:
To many people around the country, the GNP looks like a deserted old home, frequented by no one, and it has to realize that it is gradually becoming a haunted house that no one even wants to look at. If it can’t show the country some blueprints for revival, then it might a well declare that it’s going to choose total self-destruction. That way, someone else would at least be able to build a foundation on the destruction, and construct something new.
And for Choe, it gets worse — apparently, the GNP’s nomination committee advised him not to run for election today. Also today, the extraordinarily busy Supreme Public Prosecutors’ Office announced that it would summon 11 GNP lawmakers who are suspected of joining the party after receiving W200 million each.
And not a titty picture to be posted in connection with this entire story.
