Thai protesters shut down airport

How come we couldn't/didn't do this in protest to Bush and his terrible administration? to the war in Iraq?

Excerpts-
"Flights from Thailand's international airport have been suspended after hundreds of anti-government protesters stormed the building outside Bangkok."

"We will stay until the government steps down. This government is not legitimate," retired university lecturer Sunthorn Kaewlai told the Reuters news agency."

We certainly have changed, as a people, since the founding days of our country -
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure. - Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)


Where was I in the run up to the war? Well, I attended one protest. Maybe I should ask how come I couldn't/didn't do that?
