Most papers call on the politicians to put their squabbles behind them as quickly as possible and get on with the job of governing the country. |
The Korea Times points out that the moves to impeach Mr Roh are unprecedented in the country's recent history. |
"This is the first time that an incumbent head of state has been threatened with being ousted since the foundation of the Republic in 1948," the paper notes. |
Both the president and the opposition should think seriously before taking their final steps and find a compromise |
JoongAng Ilbo |
The paper says that now is a particularly bad time to indulge in political in-fighting, and advises all concerned to turn their attention to more important matters. |
"We believe that this is not the time for a political feud to grip the nation when the middle part of the country has been hit hard by the recent snow storms, adding to the economic slump. |
"With little more than one month left till the general elections, the political parties should immediately stop fighting over the fate of President Roh and battle with policies." |
"War of nerves" |
Dong-A Ilbo also deplores the refusal of either side in the dispute to back down. |
"With the economy being clouded by the recession, the do-or-die political standoff over the impeachment against President Roh Moo-hyun is arousing a sense of crisis in which the entire country may slide into an irreversible quagmire." |
Noting that opinion polls showed the majority of the South Korea people were opposed to the impeachment moves, but felt Mr Roh should still apologise for his breach of election rules, the paper calls on the president and his opponents to reach a compromise. |
Wildly wielding the sword of impeachment while holding the country and the people hostage is a move too far |
"The solution is out there, only to be ignored by the presidential office and politicians." |
The JoongAng Ilbo echoes this view, warning that if the dispute is allowed to smoulder on, it could have an adverse effect on the conduct of next month's general election. |
"If the governing and opposition parties continue this war of nerves, it is not hard to predict the outcome... If voting does take place, chaos will reign," an editorial headlined "Political stupidity" declares. |
"Both the president and the opposition should think seriously before taking their final steps and find a compromise." |
Calls to back down |
The centre-left daily Hangyore accuses those pushing for impeachment of being motivated mainly by political opportunism. |
"The judgment of many around the country is that... wildly wielding the sword of impeachment while holding the country and the people hostage is a move that goes too far." |
The paper calls on the opposition to "withdraw the bill to impeach the president. They must fear history and the people. If they force a vote out of reasons of partisan strategy, the axe is going to fall on their own feet." |
The nationalistic Chosun Ilbo, on the other hand, calls on Mr Roh to back down and apologise. |
"While more than half of the people are opposed to impeachment, at the very same time, an overwhelming number of people think he should apologise. He needs to realise that depending on the form and content of an apology, the situation could be turned round completely." |

Bottom Shelf Beer: Blue Moon Winter Abbey Ale |
Somewhere on this site I've told the story of how I courageously saved a full-grown television from certain destruction after its previous owners had abandoned it on the sidewalk. It wasn't tied to a lamppost, so it was free to run away, but it instinctively knew to just wait patiently until the right savior happened b... |
I was privileged to be this 120-pound black beauty's knight in shining sweatpants, and I will never regret lugging him the half-block home. We had a good six month run, but then one particularly hazy morning after a Christmas party gone wrong, Emily came into the bedroom to announce that our rescue TV had leaked all ov... |
After such a long stretch without any accidents, we'd assumed the TV was housebroken; I wondered if maybe it had leaked on purpose to protest our staying out too late. But it was something much more serious than petulance. It wouldn't turn on no matter how many buttons I mashed. I never learned what that fluid was, but... |
We weren't sure if we should replace the television. On one hand, we like to watch TV. On the other hand, TVs from the profit-mongering electronics mills aren't free. Plus we feared that if we ran out to buy a new TV, we'd really just be running from the pain, for I had gouged the shit out of my forearm fighting the ol... |
After 30 seconds of debate and reflection, we decided to get a new television, because it's important to move on, and it's important to watch sports, and it's important not to kill each other when trapped inside our dark little apartment all winter. |
This winter has been mild by New England standards, but it's still dark and unwarm all the damn time, so the lack of snow hasn't been enough to quell my self-diagnosed Act Like a Jerk Because Boo-Hoo Poor Baby Misses the Summer Disorder. I'm not a lot of fun to be around in the winter, so our home is better off with a ... |
If this barbaric season had one redeeming quality—and it doesn't—it might be winter beers. I'm not into seasonal beers the rest of the year, because I'm not overly fond of wheat, citrus, or nutmeg, but I've found that a nice winter beer can make my hateful words taste better as they leave my mouth. Though Blue Moon is ... |
Great news, gang: Another thing to complain about from now till spring! This isn't a terrible beer—I don't hate it as much as the Beer Advocate guys do—but it's certainly not worth $10 a six-pack. Emily has terrible taste in beer, which is to say taste dissimilar to my own, so she thought it was pretty good, which mean... |
It pours a deep, almost opaque brown, like a glass of Coke with one ice cube melted into it. The predominant smell is what I think of as generic BEER: slightly stale, slightly bitter malt. The flavor isn't awful but neither is it very interesting, with the BEER augmented by bits of brown sugar and spice. Winter Abbey d... |
I realize that Blue Moon was born and bred in the Coors lab and therefore lacks the true craft beer heritage of a Goose Island, which started off honest before getting Anheuser-Busched last year. But it's still positioned as the premium offering of one of the country's largest brewers, and I find the flagship bottling ... |
