I think the operative word was *had* supporters. He’s fled, hiding out in some bunker.
Governing against the people has a way of losing their support, if you catch my drift. But when he ordered his Berkut to start shooting people? -That’s when he lost everyone. Think about this: the Ukrainian Parliament voted unanimously; 328-0 to impeach Yanukovich. Would that ever happen in this country?

That would be amazing if the Ukrainian’s added a second amendment, wouldn’t it? Liberals in this country would be besides themselves. :-)

Doesn't sound like the Ukrainians are in a very forgiving mood with the entire Yanukovich administration:

He was referring to the picture of the Lenin statue head.
