Popular Post mrtoad Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 She shouldn't worry, nothing much enters her brain anyway. Surpised she's not changed the venue to Dubai, after all the Government is run from there. These whistles must be scary for PTP. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GentlemanJim Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 Well, better to be ambushed by whistles than by reds throwing grenades and bearing RPG's. In fact if I recall right, didn't the reds ambush Abhisit and destroy his car while he was in it, he was lucky to get out unhurt. Give me a good whistling any day, but clearly for the sensitive souls on the PTP cabinet, Sticks and stones may break my bones but whistles will destroy me! Now who was it the other day saying that the Dems doing the whistling would be the laughing stock in the western media. Here we have a PM changing venues for fear of whistling. Leadership ain't what it used to be!! 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post siampolee Posted November 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 15, 2013 Now Madam Prime Minister can you now see and now understand why your brother likes to hide behind a woman's skirt ? Seems like all those all those people expelling wind forcefully through pursed lips to producing a whistling sound have succeeded in ''putting the wind up you.'' One dreads to think what may have been the consequences to you if all those protesters were flatulent never mind we won't follow that scenario through though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainarong Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I Think it is time someone put the Prime Minister on notice that not everyone in Thailand likes her , nor her brother or the PTP, that's democracy , like it or not Prime Minister , the kitchen might become much hotter in the near future, if you can't take the heat, get out.

What a surprise to read they are talking about people blowing whistles. Go figure. I am sure that, being an American, you are smart enough to see that is exactly what these people are doing. They are literally blowing the whistle on all the scams, cover-ups, thefts, connivance and lies, among other things, that this sham of a government is responsible for over the last two years. But, then, you knew that didn't you? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the fact the Thread title for once actually includes the term "reportedly" went over yours and the usual einsteins, head/s. And once again the mass falls for a story completely based on un-named "sources" because it's what you want to hear and you can bray away to each other on your own internet forum.
