Yeah, sure. They weren't aware of the local circus before, that's for sure. Unless they're avid TVF followers.

Somehow this reminds me of the Ali G movie and the Thai lady in it.

   Why is it that Thai people always have to seek approval from their American master. What has America got to do with the problems in Thailand?

   In Thailand, when you have a problem, even if it is all your own making, you go to your patron and ask him to sort it out. Society structure = patronage system.

   Bloody Leo Heads, the US has no horse in this race and hasn't since the 1970's. Time to get your head out of the bottle!

   For whatever reason Thais love/hate foreign media - check out Greta on Fox News sending them in a tizzy with a spot on comment about their incompetence regarding the Lost flight. If the Yellows win and appoint an "unelected goverment" do not expect the NY Times, CNN, Fox to send them flowers, in fact they will dump on them,

   That either sides expects Obama to do anything besides cancel trips is a laugh. Starting with Thaksin post 9/11 and continuing on with the Dems charades ... as in NASA/CIA climate studies and will you help us get our nutters out of a cambo clink the US does not really much care to involve itself.

   Let the Euros work on it, after they sort out the jet ski problem their citizens get entangled in down Phuket way
