By During the second presidential debate, while debating Candidate Ri Jeonghee, netizens alleged that President Elect Park Geunhye used an I-Pad embedded in her red hand bag to “cheat” when answering Ri’s questions about things like the exact minimum wage.
Translation:
“Park GeunHye Cheating?”
Now she’s bringing out her lowest of the low notebook [to cheat] It’s quite shameful…
Just think about what someone like her would do as president.
[Park is called the "Princess with notebook" by her opponents because she often is seen consulting her notes.]
Later, during a rally in Daegu then Candidate Park pulled out her bag to demonstrate that the rumors were false:
(Start from 1:37)
If Park is willing to just call out rumors by directly proving them false with visual evidence, the implication may be that she will also deal with rumors by MBC or Chinboistas in a similar direct manner, rather than just letting them run with it.

So what if she cheated? She “adapted and overcame”, if you know what I mean-lol.

Q: When will the lazy-ass South Korean media and public figures ever learn that Nutizen commentary is not “news”?
A: When Korean elevators no longer smell like a thousand-pound garlic bomb just exploded inside.

This was the same dilemma Obama faced with the birthers. Does he have to disprove every claim from the nutizens? Will he let them parade him around with every new conspiracy du jour?

# 2,
Buses are much worse as are the subways from time to time no doubt.
Elevators

It ain’t the elevators, etc. that smell like that… It’s the “tirim” effect (trying to be polite) from folks who indulge in bad food, too much tobacco, too much alcohol, and not enough sleep…
I got onto an elevator in one of the LG Twin Buildings in the basement with some elegantly-dressed, middle-aged, woman executive (looked like real designer stuff). Just before she left the elevator on the 8th floor, she let loose. Well before the 17th, where I was bound, I was ready to “blow chunks”, “hurl”, or “spew”–i.e., not ready for the client sales meeting I was to lead.
After that, I always kept some chewable “pepto” handy…

Gotta be a single guy, most probably a virgin too, who came up with the iPad conspiracy theory. To me, it’s obvious in the picture that opening or closing the latch on her purse.
Besides, who uses their thumb on a touch screen?

Lol, some of my liberal friends in South Korea are not very happy. Just got this email:
“Can you find a place to live in China for me?
I want to leave this country!”
And she’s fairly moderate, a subscriber the print edition of the Chosun Ilbo.
I can only imagine how South Korea’s hard-core leftists are feeling right now. And what about Tubby?
No doubt, there will be plenty of drama in 2013!

Even if she did, so what? What’s wrong with having accurate information? Better than the usual politician shooting from the lip.
But at least she didn’t let the rumors grow out of control. Obama’s BC looks exactly like my kids’ do, and it was all they needed for their passports. Obama could have released his Long Form well in advance of the rumors growing legs. Sometime you want to stand above nonsense, sometime you want to address it so it just goes away, and your detractors look foolish.

Hey everybody! Thanks for responding to my first article on ROKDROP. Please look forward to more as I find interesting stories from the Korean language internet.

“No doubt, there will be plenty of drama in 2013!”
I’m not so sure. The North Korean fifth column is kinda screwed since South Koreans really like Barack Obama.

Good point, Teadrinker. Then again, Gwangju happened when Carter was in the White House. Certainly a number of different factors need to align in order to create a perfect shit storm across the Peninsula.
And you can be sure the “jinboistas” will be doing their best to make sure it happens.

I just have to say is watch out for retribution to all those who protested and railed against her father. This will be worth watching.

12- Don’t forget about that Leftist land-stealing committee that had its reign of error.
