When the boat people started to make their way across the Gulf, there was a flurry of activity a little farther south out of Bang Saray.God, the panic within the Dems, MSM, and left must be horrifying...realizing that Joe is really the best they've got.

I moved to Pattaya in early 2006, a few months before the first coup. I suppose you could describe them as the good old days of Thailand- it had the highest GDP growth rate in Asean, booming FDI, strong average income growth, and Thailands democratically elected government had both served a full term for the first time ever, and been re-elected for first time ever by the first ever democratic absolute majority! Things looked rosy, indeed. Of course then the coup, and things have only been downhill from there. Way downhill, actually.

And later that year and into 2007 we suffered the Asian Financial Crisis.
Happy-ending dates were plentiful though...God, the panic within the Dems, MSM, and left must be horrifying...realizing that Joe is really the best they've got.
