Shizuka's amiable sayings
Shizuka is very popular among Japanese politicians and even Japanese people. His speech is full of humor. Jimin tou ga Sinseito to kumu koto ha 500 % nai.
 * Example

(The LDP is absolutely different from Japan Renewal Party . I dislike Ichiro Ozawa !
 * However Sizuka's sayings was heard in 1994, the coalition between LDP and Liberal Party (1998) had come true in 1998 . Sometimes Sizuka is not reliable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by The DQN,macbeth (talk • contribs) 02:48, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * In Japanese language, we have the proverb as follows , " Iya yo Iya yo mo suki no uti " . (We often show the hesitation or hatred appearances against what we are admiring in heart. )The DQN,macbeth 03:28, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Links to the Yakuza
Nothing in here about his alleged links to the yakuza ? I am afraid I have no serious source right now, but it is quite famous.

There is even a story about him recognizing he got 40,000,000 yen in donations from a Yakuza, Ikeda Yasuji　(池田保次), who was running Cosmopolitan, a Yamaguchi-gumi front company

This is also discussed in Jake Adelstein's book Tokyo Vice
