actually minute. Roh promised he would yield much of his power and might even resign from office if a grand coalition was successfully launched.
Roh's proposal for the grand coalition stirred yet another national controversy. Many called his plan reckless and completely ignorant of the sentiments of people still ailing from repeated political controversies and economic hardships. Many of the Uri Party's supporters who confess as liberals were enraged at Roh holding that his party was not really different from the conservative opposition. The Grand National Party, enjoying relatively strong approval rate but still bent on revenge for the party's defeat in major elections, repeatedly declined to initiate a negotiation for the coalition. While the Uri Party grudgingly supported the President's proposal, a lawmaker defected from the party in protest of Roh's plan, and the loss of popularity was felt when the party suffered another complete defeat in the by-election on October 26, 2005, this time including one of the party's stronghold electoral districts. Roh's plan was scrapped, having failed to garner support from either political faction. However, Roh has announced that another proposal is on the way, scheduled to be issued in early 2006, to resolve "national problems" which includes plans for "his course."

Roh was perceived as an anti-American before the presidential race, which was not a handicap during the campaign. Public antipathy with the United States was prevalent in 2002, which was evoked by an insufficient response by the U.S. Army in a maneuver accident that cost the lives of two Korean schoolgirls, and President Bush's hard-line policy towards North Korea. Roh once remarked "is going anti-American a big deal?" before he won the presidency, which worked in Roh's favor and led many to believe he will lead an independent line in terms of relation with the U.S.
Roh's remark, however, has become a liability after he started out as the President. Conservatives in Korea and the U.S. regarded Roh with suspicion, and opposition Grand National Party routinely criticized Roh as a left-winger. Roh clumsily attempted to make up for this negative image, when he made his first visit to the U.S. and said he would have been in a (communist) concentration camp had there not been support from the United States. Roh's comment was ill-received by many Koreans, who felt the comment was too self-deprecating and insulting to national pride. Roh's revelation was all the more alarming because his obedient attitude seemed to be in discord with a comment he had made during the presidential campaign stating that he would not visit the United States only to do some photo-ops.
Many Koreans felt betrayed when Roh decided to deploy troops to Iraq in support of the U.S.-led military campaign. Although Roh excused the deployment as only a peacekeeping mission and claimed that such commitment was required to b上一页 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] 下一页
