This Actually Happened

The Thai Prime Minister was forced to resign because he violated the Constitution for...

...starting a war based on lies? No.

...violating international conventions against torture? Uh-uh.

...indefinite detentions, suspension of habeas corpus, illegal wiretapping, misusing intelligence, outing a covert operative, untold instances of corruption....

No, no, no, no, no, no.

He took money to appear on a cooking show.

And they forced him to resign for that.

And yet we're the shining beacon of democracy in the world, where no man is above the law.
