Honduras -- Riding Tigers

American Spectator ^ | 7/8/09

A warning to President Obama from John F. Kennedy.

President Obama has denounced the actions taken by the Honduran Congress, Supreme Court and military, all actions taken under the rule of law -- Honduran law -- in the nonviolent arrest and removal from office of strongman (caudillo) Manuel Zelaya. President Obama's denunciation was based, using Jay D. Homnick's apt phrase, on "standard collegiate peacenik rhetoric."

Joining in this shame are the UN General Assembly that approved a resolution by consensus without a formal vote on June 30 (p

The General Secretary of the OAS is José Miguel Insulza. He is a Chilean lawyer who obtained an M.A. in political science from the University of Michigan. He was a part of the Marxist Allende government and was exiled from Chile from 1973 to 1988.

In his Inaugural Address, President Kennedy issued a warning to former colonies who sought to model themselves after the Soviet Union. He warned them to defend their own freedoms and not seek power by riding the back of the Soviet tiger lest they end up inside. Today, his words serve as a warning to President Obama. Instead of supporting the Hondurans who are defending their freedom, he is riding the tigers of international socialists like Zelaya, Chavez, d'Escoto and Insulza. He will end up inside.

The president of the United Nations General Assembly is Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann. From 1979 to 1990 he was the Foreign Minister of the Marxist, Sandinista, Nicaraguan government. His official biography on the United Nations website, presumably one approved by d'Escoto, repeatedly states that he is a Catholic priest. The biography ignores the fact that the Vatican suspended his priestly faculties, and those of two other Sandinista priests, Ernesto and Fernando Cardenal, in the 1980s, more than 20 years ago.

Soetoro has his own rule book, plagiarized by Ayers from Alinski's Rules For Radicals.

It's funny to see the expression "riding tigers" as this was an image that came to my mind only yesterday when I considered how could the wealthy (and the very wealthy) support a socialist/marxist candidate for president?"

My conclusion was they vainly imagined they could "ride the tiger" and in the aftermath profit from the chaos created.

Catholicism is just a puppet mask to get these monsters or favor with the people.

Daniel Ortega, famous Sandinista leader, converted to be elected President the second time in Nicaragua, in 2006. He has been implicated in sexual abuse of his stepdaughter, has supported abortion rights in the past, holds firm Marxist beliefs incompatible with Christian charity. He really had to "tone it down" to win, even selecting a Contra VP. He is one to keep an eye on given the domino-like nature of these events.

We have one arrogant, thug dictator-wanna-be supporting another. This is democrat party politics, not news.

[watusa1775]

Yes, this is true, I am in Choluteca! As I saw that you quote a sign here, we have no oil, we have not money, we have balls...we thought Hillary help us since she have them too.

Vamos a ver que pasa....

Obama mis speak, toss hot potato to Hillary, she toss potato to Arias. Poor Arias.

Zelaya provoke demonstration. If he care about Honduras, not his wallet, he say yes, you got me on video, I’m guilty, I resign, I go to jail. And then everything normal.

Chavez and Zelaya made all factory close since 7/2 because he want put people on street stress out make them worry. Mitcheleit say they pay all days, people go back to work today after big march go well, massive.

Still, no picture of massive march on you call MSM.

If OAS can violate charter to meddle, as you say, then can Hondurans SUE MSM for slanderous reporting and misinformation (I have my diccionario aqui!). If Chavez and Zelaya are guilty of extortion, bribery, then is media also guilty for lying and making facts look one way only to get stupid people who believe anthying to riot?

Honduras want to sue CNN. Can we do this? STN, ABC, BBC, NBC, CBS also and some FOX. We not beleive, but we google and best report from here, Canada Free Press. Telemundo y Univision slant much also. HLN did good report. They only one, many times show both sides.

We have video phone here and one person tape TV or web or youtube and send everybody.

Listen Hillary, Hondruas may have some poor places, but US also, but we make ninos stay in school. They take civics, world history, some US history, and learn about CONSTITUTIONS and typos de gubernidad. We are not dumb and this not Banana Republic (always make me laugh to see $98 tag on $5 shirt). Remember the republic part, and banana make you strong.

US on wrong side with China, Russia, Iran. How stupid this new Obama? Famous Amos you sell out your friends of 35 years here in Honduras, so Obama, you go to hell with Chavez. We have stong principles, you do not, you need figure out what you believe and what not. 80% of Hondurans are fans of democracy, big, crazy mess but work very well for us, we do very well. I read that you do social medicine? Bad idea. We have this, but you still save money to go to PRIVATE doctor, because public doctor AWFUL. They kill you.

[Rome2000]

so Obama, you go to hell with Chavez.

And all of the assholes who voted for the both of them go to hell too!

I am moved to tears by what you have written. All I can do (at least at the present time) is to wish you well, pray for you, those you love and your country, and assure you that a many, many Norteamericanos (the number is growing daily) realize the truth of what is happening in Honduras.

It is not too much to say that ALL on Freerepublic admire your steadfast defense of LAW and FREEDOM. “Que Dios los acompañe.”
