webfact Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Democrats at fault for trying to usurp power: Anusorn The Nation BANGKOK: -- The Democrat Party refused to accept the Pheu Thai election victory and tried to usurp power, government deputy spokesman Anusorn Eiamsaard said on Wednesday. "The prevailing situation is like all opponents are colluding to trample and overthrow the elected governement despite its landslide mandate," he said. Anusorn alleged that the Democrats were working in concerted efforts with the anti-government movement in order to grab power. The latest incident which the Election Commission had disqualifed Pheu Thai MP Karun Hosakul was proof of an on-going offensive against the government, he said. The other incidents included the judicial decision to strip Jatuporn Promphan of his Pheu Thai MP status, the judicial intervention to launch an inquiry into charter change and the surprice decision on the long-forgetten Alpine scandal paving way to prosecute Deputy Prime Minister Yongyuth Wichaidit, he said. He also voiced suspicion about the timing of public prosecutors to try former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in connection with the Krung Thai Bank's Bt9 billion lending transactions. "I believe we are witnessing a game of toppling the government," he said, arguing that the opposition's eventual target was to dislodge the prime minister. He called for the ruling party and government to map out a joint strategy for counter-attack. -- The Nation 2012-06-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratcatcher Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I have a sneaky feeling that The Pheu Thai Party would be doing exactly the same, and maybe more, if they were in opposition. It's called dirty politics and is S.O.P. However, it does appear that the Dems are scraping the barrel, but apparently said barrel needs scraping.

MunterHunter Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Anusorn alleged that the Democrats were working in concerted efforts with the anti-government movement in order to grab power. Replace the word "Democrats" with the word "PTP" and it accurately describes the few years leading upto the last general election... If the Democrats were not doing what they are being accused of, i would claim 'double standards' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nickymaster Posted June 20, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) Good old PT. Always victims. Let's see: The latest incident which the Election Commission had disqualifed Pheu Thai MP Karun Hosakul was proof of an on-going offensive against the government, he said. Wasn't he the guy that physically assaulted another MP? The other incidents included the judicial decision to strip Jatuporn Promphan of his Pheu Thai MP status Because he couldn't vote because he was in jail for inciting unrest? the judicial intervention to launch an inquiry into charter change Isn't this the case were PT called an urgent vote on an un-urgent bill to whitewash Thaksin? the surprice decision on the long-forgetten Alpine scandal paving way to prosecute Deputy Prime Minister Yongyuth Wichaidit, he said. I believe the suprise was bigger when the case was dropped/put on hold when this major abuse of power happened. He also voiced suspicion about the timing of public prosecutors to try former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in connection with the Krung Thai Bank's Bt9 billion lending transactions. Isn't this the case where Thaksin was charged with malfeasance involving Krung Thai Bank's Bt9.9 billion in non-performing loans provided to three subsidiaries of the debt-ridden Krisada Mahanakorn real estate company? Later KTB had to write of these amount as NPLs. (I hope TV readers understand this game) Thanks for reminding us Anusorn.

It's picking off the low hanging fruit. What did they expect when they elected all these criminals? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonclark Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Change the record please this talk of toppling governments is getting old. The is a difference between holding people accountable for their actions and a power grab. What amazes me is the despite knowing full well that being MPs they are constantly going to be under scrutiny , the MPS on both sides of the political divide make rash decisions of gargantuan proportions and they start complaining when asked to explain themselves. Perhaps PTP should be more strict in its qualifications for party membership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrod711 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 PTP is determined to push for thaksins return, the opposition is just as determined that it not happen. I wonder if we would be seeing this if Thaksin would back off, let the government do the job they were elected to do, and possibly win the next election. Never going to happen though.

slapout Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 When you consider the apparent lack of credentials, experience, and moral fiber of a goodly number of the ruling government, why would you expect a long service time. Dishornorable discharges for some, General for most, with a few Honorable would be a start to cleaning up the stench associated with this group.

Thaddeus Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I've got a tip for Anusorn. Stop members of your party doing naughty things and they won't get fingers pointed at them...... simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Moruya Posted June 20, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted June 20, 2012 Anusorn. There are so many crooks and villains there will be no one left to turn the lights out.

animatic Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) Spin meister for the PM, or Government deputy spokesman or Mouth piece for the political party. Or 'all three at once'. Never mind that this is 100% about party politics, and not the government,the official "Government deputy spokesman" still gets to blur the lines of separation. Does Nopadom write his scripts for him? Successfully working in opposition is suddenly Usurping Power. This is spin of a low and wobbly sort.

"Anusorn alleged that the Democrats were working in concerted efforts with the anti-government movement in order to grab power." You are right the PT would be doing every thing they could to stop the Dem's from trying to improve Thailand. Look back to what they did in 2010 with their military arm dressed in red and black shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubl Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 "Anusorn alleged that the Democrats were working in concerted efforts with the anti-government movement in order to grab power. To be fair, k.

thaigold Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) I certainly can't speak for Thailand, but this is the way it works in the U.S.A. The US politicians dress up their deals in the language of the law or policy - but they are really dispensing tax revenue. What keeps these guys in office isn't their oratory skills but their skill at doling out the spoils of office to their friends, patrons, and lastly, their constituents. They push the buttons and pull the levers like so many gamblers in a slot machine casino. Edited June 21, 2012 by thaigold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomross46 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 The PTP did not say anything about the former government, they has the RED SHIRTS. OH! how sturpid of me the RED SHIRTS are part of the PTP. Is this the same as the BROWN SHIRTS in Natzi Germany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MunterHunter Posted June 21, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2012 How do you the black shirts belong to the red shirts!. How do you know that the black shirts aren't proxy of the military to do damage. Because the Black Shirts were often seen mingling with the Red Shirts inside of their camp... also i personally was stopped at gun point and searched by 3 of them when i tried to get to the office one morning... Therefore i know the Black Shirts to be aligned with the Red Shirts as a point of fact 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
