Video: The coup in Honduras was illegal, says Obama
Hot Air ^ | June 28, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

The country’s supreme court disagrees, but oh well. The One hath spoken. Regarding the lip service he pays here to “democratic traditions,” does the fact that Honduras’s congress blessed Zelaya’s ouster and installed Micheletti as president factor at all into the calculus about how democratic this was? What about the fact that Zelaya was organizing his referendum towards anti-democratic ends, as a first step towards installing himself as a Chavez-esque strongman? And since Obama’s so worried about setting “terrible precedents,” how about the precedent of piping up in support of a Chavez stooge instead of simply staying out of this? He goes so far here as to say that Zelaya’s still the president of Honduras, which risks forcing an impossible situation where he’s returned to power despite all other arms of the government — military, legislature, and judiciary — being openly hostile to him. What could go wrong?

What’s this I hear about meddling?

Obama joins his BFFs Fidel,Chavez,and Achmahdinijad.

Always on the wrong side of history.

This was close to home. I wonder if Obama isn’t just a tiny bit worried.

Obama is scared stiff, as well he should be, because his name is next on the list. He cant pull off his charade without the military and the military will not answer to him other than to go get his worthless ass and throw it on a plane back to Kenya.

The press better nail him on this.

People are spitting mad. Zero is in trouble. I won’t hold my breath for media to nail him on it though.

I honestly believe 0bama and Chavez have been working together on this - and I honestly believe 0bama is going to try the same thing here. I never thought I’d actually say that. But I believe it.

2nd amendment here thank God.

He may be prepping the sheep for sending American troops to prop up the dictator.

White is black. Black is white.

So sayeth The One.

What a tool. The ousting of the Honduran President was absolutely lagel, and directed by their Supreme Court.

But the closet Muslim just couldn’t completely veil his sympathy for the exiled Marxist Chavez wannabe.

But what made me almost spit was his affected pronounciation of “Honduras”.

I wonder if TOTUS gave him that tip.

Obama is a moron and he’s declaring it illegal under OAS guidelines. The problem is that Honduras is a sovereign nation and was acting 100% within their sovereign laws.

Maybe Obama was extra unnerved because Joe Biden was walking around, daydreaming, with a big grin on his face.

On the job training? Or sympathetic concern for a fellow dictator? Or both?

Has he read ‘their’ constitution?
I would be surprised to know that he has even read ‘ours’?
