Who was it that recently pronounced coup (as in de tat) as 'coop'? I'm guessing it was a politician. Then again it might be from a West Wing episode or something...

It is supposed to be more or less pronounced as the coop in Cooper (though without the p) - so.. everyone :p ?
If you mean as co-op.. no idea.

Bah, I was going to find an image of a chicken escaping a coop or a broken coop and call it a failed coup. But I can't. I failed. :(
