Slow news day

The only thing making a big splash was the statement, made on Formosa TV last night by VP Annette Lu, that Premier Su Chen-chang threatened to resign if Chen didn't at the height of the Shih Ming-te business. She further said if it hadn't been for herself and Yu Shyi-kun, Chen probably would have resigned.

Su laughed it off, asking how resigning would have helped him; Yu said Lu's statement was "very close to the reality;" Frank Hsieh seemed to have been smart enough not to say anything.

Chen Shui-bian came out himself and said Su had made no such threat, but has offered a resignation on four occasions.

So other than this molehill that looked like a mountain from a distance, not much.
