Chaiwat would be transferred if found guilty

...presumably to another park? That will show him!

CAPO Chief Adviser Surapong Tovichak-chaikul has spoken on his organization’s behalf, saying that the CAPO only intended to let Thai society move forward

...yes khun Chief Advisor, Thai society is absolutely thrilled by your permission to let it move forward, even though it's only half a centimeter, the society is very grateful: "Thank you, thank you Mr. Surapong, for not making us move sideways or backwards again. Half a centimeter in he right direction is something we haven't seen in ages! Three cheers for Surapong, a true Thai benefactor!"

We will never get to know who launched the grenade. The Sheeple will say that it was The Red Shirts. which is what was required.

better to be a sheeple, than a nincompoop

But perhaps the latter is sometimes better renumerated ?

Possibly, but being a nitwit means also not knowing the difference...

R.I.P., my man.

The rally would be peaceful and weapons-free, she said.

...ok, but will there be poop, ready to be slung about by the red-shirted feces brigade?

Thailand could do with a lot less lip service and a bit more genuine caring from it's populace. Like the "I love Thailand" guy who smothers his beloved country in litter and junk on the side of the road.

A good thing, hats off to the BiB.

threw rotten fishes, eggs and even human excreta

The Red Brigade collects feces for ammunition every morning. Wonder who in the red leadership contributes the most kaka on a daily basis. Maybe they have a competition:

1 pound of steaming dung from Jatuporn, vs. a semiliquid cup of yesterdays extra hot somtam squirts from Thida - who would want to be the judge of that? Only red shit slingers...

neither Mr. Jatupon nor Mr. Nattawut attended; lawyers representing both activists said they were ill.

...must have caught the same social disease from each other...

Why do Thais shilly-shally all the time and never actually get on and DO something?

Because the simple fact is that they hate confrontation in whatever form.

that's not quite true, they are very enthusiastic at the 10 vs.1 fight...

If it is ok for Red Shirts to bully and intimidate venue owners in Chiang Mai into cancelling events and concerts of known anti-government artists, then not renewing an annual contract seems a much more civilized and legal way, wouldn't you agree, Ms. Suda, lecturer of arts?

you mean the same way the Yellow Thugs bullied and intimidated VOTERS? and election workers??

don't pick on reds - CONDEMN bullying, intimidation and violence on BOTH sides

I like to pick on reds, because they make such juicy targets, yellows are too dry and don't have much flavor...

If anyone has learned anything from this, it would be:

1. don't trust the Thai government to fulfill present terms, promises or contracts

then follows:

2. don't believe the Thai government to fulfill future terms, promises or contracts

then follows:

3. sit back and watch the Thai government squirm in all directions

International Parliamentary Union?

Another 3 letter word I never heard about before...

MPs have Union now? Representing them against who? The people? The government? Say, what??!!?? Absurdity cubed!

Thai MPs, are they members in good standing? Most of all, have they paid their dues?

Despair Strikes UDD

Long faces and abject disappointment were evident as the Red Shirt leadership addressed their audience today: a toothless grannie and a soi dog was the whole turn out...

...

8. The CAPO calls on it's liquor supplier to urgently deliver more alcohol, since Mr. Chalerm is running on empty and needs a top off.

Nikom believes the attempt to hastily hold a Senate session is to axe him

is it? Ok, then...

I believe many more politicians should be axed...

Ah, ca ira, ca ira, ca ira...

Police officers at Mueang Police Station said the case is pending a decision by the police commanders whether to launch an official investigation.

...if you don't have any work to do, then you go and generate some...very creative, proactive and progressive way of thinking, congratulations, the BiB, you are on the right track!

"I believe this rally will attract an overwhelming number of demonstrators, because the Redshirts will not want to lose face and surrender to Suthep Thaugsuban," Mr. Jatupon

Ah, the end of the rope - he is playing the "face" card, nobody who is Thai can trump that, it is the ultimate weapon of last resort...it also shows he is cornered and desperate.

National Police chief Pol General Adul Saengsingkaew yesterday called for police operations to become more proactive as well as emphasise human rights, justice and equality.

Attending the meeting:

Officer Somchai: "Hey k. Wiwat, he is using big words again, I don't understand at all..."

Officer Wiwat: "Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..."

On the move by a group of people to propose the invocation of Article 7 of the Constitution to appoint a interim prime minister, Mr Noppadon said the proposal was beyond the scope of the Constitution and there was no justification for its invocation.

Article 7 is part of the Constitution, but proposing to invoke it is beyond the scope of the Constitution? So why does Article 7 exist?

Gotta be a lawyer to make sense of that statement...

He invalidated Mr. Chaikasem’s claim that the court would overstep its authority should it rule the caretaker Prime Minister is guilty of corruption charges, causing her to lose legitimacy to stay in the post and also a political vacuum.

Mr. Chaikasem shouldn't be afraid of the vacuum. Thailand has lived with the vacuum for quite a while now, it's just that the "Big Empty" would move from hiding between a set of shapely ears to the outside for all to see.

And since we are discussing cosmic issues, don't let me get started on allegories of Black Holes, Big Bangs and Alternative Realities (some politicos live in)...

Isn't this the third or fourth time the police asked the man to surrender himself?

I understand the Royal Thai Police, this way is so much easier and still let's them appear as if they are doing some work. I suggest for them to adopt this strategy for a much bigger platform:

1. Will all people who have committed a crime please report to your nearest police station, and don't forget the crime processing fee.

2. Will all people who haven't yet committed a crime, but definitely plan on doing so in the future, please also report to your nearest police station for up-to-date knowhow and advice, and don't forget the how-to-successfully-commit-a-crime consulting fee.

3. Will all the rest of you who do not fit in 1. or 2. start doing 1. or 2. already, and then follow the applicable procedures, you lazy bums!

Do you see yourself the way others see you?

No, no I see myself inverted in the mirror...
