suds00: they can't override a president's veto.
Obama using silver bullet to destroy jobs along with the rest of us over the next two years just asking for a GOP president . Be a few Domo's playing with slide rules today , their fat little fingers up in the wind to see which ways winds blowing . Nothing like the though of future unemployment to sharpen their minds .

RayfromUSA: American politics reminds me of a scene from the Odd Couple.

The two parties are the sandwiches.



One votes blindly for the other party not because there's any reason to hope it will be any better, but out of total disgust for the party that's been in power.



I agree with you and that's happening in many places, the province of Québec being one.

Thanks to all of you ladies and gents for your sharp political comments, and for those of you who have concerns about the proper usages (as you know it to mean) of the phrase coup d'etat, here's something you may find interesting.

A coup d'état(/?ku?de?'t??/; French: blow of state; plural: coups d'état), also known as a coup, a putsch, or an overthrow, is the sudden and illegal seizure of a government, usually instigated by a small group of the existing state establishment to depose the established government and replace it with a new ruling body. A coup d'état is considered successful when the usurpers establish their dominance. When the coup either fails or doesn't entirely succeed, a civil war is a possible consequence.

A coup d'état typically uses the extant government's power to assume political control of the country. In Coup d'État: A Practical Handbook[page needed], military historian Edward Luttwak states that " coup consists of the infiltration of a small, but critical, segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder." The armed forces, whether military or paramilitary, can be a defining factor of a coup d'état.



Usage of the phrase Coup D'etat
Politically, a coup d'état is a usually violent method of political engineering, which affects who rules in the government, without radical changes in the form of the government, the political system.

Tactically, a coup d'état involves control, by an active minority of usurpers, who block the remaining (non-participant) defenders of the state's possible defence of the attacked government, by either capturing or expelling the politico-military leaders, and seizing physical control of the country's key government offices, communications media, and infrastructure. It is to be noted that in the latest years there has been a broad use of the phrase in mass media, which may contradict the legal definition of "coup d'état". In looser usage (as in intelligence coup, boardroom coup) the term simply refers to gaining a sudden advantage on a rival.

A lot of robberies in NZ of stores selling smokes . Some armed with a few deaths over the years . Priced out of the reach of poor smokers deliberately by taxes designed to make them stop smoking .

I see no Coup d'Etat there, only Democratic Elections, fortunately for You Americans.
Coup d'Etat is only about the Military (as Juntas did in South America) taking the Power by Force.
