Pretty crazy until you read the last line of the [cnn.com](http://cnn.com) article.

"Thailand has seen dozens of government coups since the end of World War II. "

So yeah, sounds like this isn’t exactly breaking new ground in their political process.

I’m so fuckin sick of hearing about bush did this, bush did that. If you think that one person really has that much power on his own, your an idiot. This country is run by many fucked up polititions that only care about re-election, and will burn babies to do it. Every thing happens with lots of help from many of these political fuck faces, but when it goes wrong, only one person is blamed.
