		<description>Awzar Thi, haha a new US ambassador appointed by Bush to ASEAN for drilling a hole in an otherwise stable regional plank. The hole in the plank is to prevent ASEAN crossing the bridge of colonial paranoia to Japan, Korea and China and securing pathways to economic parity.  Economic parity! Oh no! What would be the point of borders if everyone was equally wealthy? You guessed it! Crazy fundamentalist ideologies and grudges harbored by well fed people. Or maybe they just want to speed up drilling all that Chevron oil off Sihanoukville? &lt;i&gt;&quot;Auguring for utopia: The Nation since 1971&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

LSS, definitely.</description>

Hey, thanks for introducing me to Regurgitator! Is it just me or do they sound, at times, like a more sane version of &lt;a&gt;the Polysics&lt;/a&gt;?</description>

		<description>Maybe, because Thai politics is a multi-team game these days that needs good sportsmanship not to cause a serious upheaval amongst players, referees (or those who have appointed themselves to these positions), and the spectators? Maybe, we will see rival groups of fans battling it out? The fun that is Thai political sports these days.</description>

		<description>The Nation is just plain screwy these days. Hopefully in its death throes, to be replaced by something approaching a newspaper.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;politics is sport
come gather round the court
come see Surayud become all privy
as you cheer and down a tiger beer
you think they&#039;re looking like they could be back in form this year;
they&#039;re sporting all the same smear rorts,

they lost the shoulder-smacking military-backing
after the lights were ablaring things were happening
you see the media sacarin glistening on their tongues
they&#039;ll be climbing up the rungs to the top of the industry echelons

keep it going on cos they didn&#039;t just come to play they came to win
pros like them know losing is a sin
and when it comes down to handling their balls
these privy boys&#039;ll give it their all from hand to eye
down the line super fine electoral control
along with some underhanded power plays
they&#039;ll be leaving all the opposition in a stunned daze
you find they always have the last laugh
as the crowd roar 
for yellow some more

now the crowd goes wild for sufficiency skills
so Samak teaches lessons in regression 
but it sure doesn&#039;t pay the bills
what the hell we hitting for?
royal companies keeping score;

don&#039;t ya see Thaksin&#039;s suffered one too many knocks
trying to get those financial statements from the office desk
before the military whacked him for six
then they started pumping out the oh so innocent hits to feed the media blitz
now watch the swollen champs blow the champers on bikini clad 
tank straddling chicks

high five and then we pray to our living god;
before we play to the throbbing mob
so if you&#039;re ever on the sideline or sweating in the court
just remember my friends

politics is sport!&lt;/i&gt;
