The photo is symbolic : Hatoyama is as lackluster and ineffectual as is the Japan Soccer Team .

Probably even HE doesn't want it.

I think his looking for Ronaldo,s or Messi,s signature, but suddenly realizes he,s holding the blue samurai jersey...

Well, they both are good at failing!

Maybe he can give it to Hillary as an omiyage.

Number 10 is definitely the wrong number for Hatoyama.
I don't know who's more of a space cadet, Hatoyama or Okada...

The team nickname is SAMURAI BLUE, marcels. Not the blue samurai.

You know he was scheduled to go there "thinking" they were going to win.

So the "spaceman" and his wife are going to play for Japan? Wonders will never cease.

Okada is smiling like the cat who ate the mouse because he knows that there is at least one person in japan who is more useless than himself.

Hatoyama: "Why did you wreck the shirt by getting all these amateur players to sign it?" Okada: "Uh...thats out First 11, PM."

Hatoyama may be interested in participating in the Japanese football team in World Cup
