Here. Below is an excerpt:
… By fall, the compromises grew more serious. When tanks rolled through Bangkok in a military coup overthrowing Thailand‘s elected prime minister, Bush was at the United Nations delivering a speech on democracy. But Bush mustered no outrage on behalf of the ousted Thai leader and left town without seeing him, even though he was also at the United Nations. The National Security Council pushed for a stronger response, but the State Department and the office of the vice president resisted. “OVP has this little-girl crush on strongmen,” said an official on the losing side.
And of course the liberal doods are loving it. Because what better way to insult a man you despise, right?
