The Republican senator from Arizona and rival of President Barack Obama during the 2008 elections met with Prime Minister Taro Aso and Foreign Minister Hirofumi Nakasone late Thursday, officials said.

In the closed-door talks they discussed issues including North Korea's rocket launch last weekend and climate change, the foreign ministry said without giving further details.

He looks happy. Hopefully he’s found a vacation spot. Permanently.

I’m not sure happy is the right word. More like demented and just plain nuts.

I suppose we are paying for this vacation. It kills me that politicians can just pick up and go traipsing across the World whenever they get the itch. Both sides do this crap.

It would be one thing if any good could come out of McCain’s traipsing all over the world, but most of the people he meets with have no respect for him.He has proved time and again he is nothing but a big bag of B/S. Why doesn’t he go home to Arizona and take a nap.

You know, though, he might be an improvement on what we’ve got going on over here.
