Almost two weeks ago Thaddeus McCotter sent a letter to the white house asking about who knew what about Zelaya’s drug ties. The media apparently missed that one and I’m guessing McCotter didn’t get an answer.

Honduras needs to give Obama a face saving way out of this, and he will gladly take it. Perhaps if there is evidence of drug money, which they claim there is, they can publish the evidence, and Obama can be shocked, shocked, that he good buddy was doing something wrong, and they’ll drop the whole thing.

How can they back away from him? He violated his nation’s constitution. His actions required him to be removed from office. He was removed from office.

How can you not defend him in the face of this? /s

While the Hondurans made a big mistake in forcibly exiling Zelaya, they had ample reason to arrest him and try him for several violations of their constitution. It’s entirely possible to criticize the manner of Zelaya’s removal while still recognizing the necessity of protecting the nation from a dictatorship in its nascent stages.

Actually it wasn't a big mistake and there isn't much ground to stand on to criticize Zelaya's exile. He lost his citizenship by violationg Article 42 paragraph 5.

ARTICLE 42 .- The quality of citizen is lost:

1. 1. Por prestar servicios en tiempo de guerra a enemigos de Honduras o de sus aliados; For service in wartime enemies of Honduras or its allies;

2. 2. Por prestar ayuda en contra del Estado de Honduras, a un extranjero oa un gobierno extranjero en cualquier reclamación diplomática o ante un tribunal internacional; For assistance with the State of Honduras, an alien or a foreign government in any diplomatic claim or before an international tribunal;

3. 3. Por desempeñar en el país, sin licencia del Congreso Nacional, empleo de nación extranjera, del ramo militar o de carácter político; To play in the country, without license from the National Congress, employment of foreign nation, or military branch of a political nature;

4. 4. Por coartar la libertad de sufragio, adulterar documentos electorales o emplear medios fraudulentos para burlar la voluntad popular; For the freedom to vote, electoral documents adulterate or use fraudulent means to circumvent the popular will;

5. 5. Por incitar, promover o apoyar el continuismo o la reelección del Presidente de la República; y, Incite, encourage or support the continuity or re-election of President of the Republic, and

6. 6. Por residir los hondureños naturalizados, por más de dos años consecutivos, en el extranjero sin previa autorización del Poder Ejecutivo. Naturalized Honduran resident for more than two consecutive years abroad without prior approval of the Executive.

En los casos a que se refieren los numerales 1) y 2), la declaración de la pérdida de la ciudadanía la hará el Congreso Nacional mediante expediente circunstanciado que se forme al efecto. In the cases referred to in paragraphs 1) and 2) the declaration of loss of citizenship will file the National Congress through circumstances that formed for the purpose. Para los casos de los numerales 3) y 6), dicha declaración la hará el Poder Ejecutivo mediante acuerdo gubernativo; y para los casos de los incisos 4) y 5) también por acuerdo gubernativo, previa sentencia condenatoria dictada por los tribunales competentes. For the cases of paragraphs 3) and 6) That the statement made by the Executive Government Agreement, and for the cases of subparagraphs 4) and 5) also by governmental agreement, after the sentence handed down by courts.

It is easier to read at the link.

What the Dems couldn't comprehend was the fact that virtually everything the Honduran Legislature, Attorney General, Supreme Court and Army did was specifically authorized by the “rule book” (read: Constitution). That is a total anathema to liberals who feel that after the stadium empties, the lights are turned off, and the scoreboard shows a result they don't like, their solution is to write a new rule book which would guarantee the outcome they wanted. This is essentially the tactic they tried after the 2000 election in Florida went against them. Kathleen Harris merely read the regulation in place and enforced it. For that she has been vilified in the same manner the libs are doing to Sarah Palin today.

That renowned socialist beekeeper, Hugo Chavez, had a bit of a problem trying to herd his ‘Swarm Of Bees’. Better luck next time, Hugo. You fricken’ commie asshat.

A colossal foreign policy blunder by 0bama, yet the MSM won’t go near it.

Well Congress is starting to read newspapers. Maybe that’s the first step in a long journey toward reading the bills that they pass.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration didn’t bother to get the facts before racing to the conclusion that Zelaya was a victimized democrat, whose main political allies in the region include such luminary defenders of liberty and democracy as Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, and the Castro brothers.
Sorry, HotAir, but I can't go along with you there.

They had the facts.

They knew the facts.

We all knew the facts.

The Keystone Kops (Obama incompetents)just can't ever seem to get it right the first time.

‘Unfortunately, the Obama administration didn’t bother to get the facts before racing to the conclusion that Zelaya was a victimized democrat, whose main political allies in the region include such luminary defenders of liberty and democracy as Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, and the Castro brothers. They ignored the lawful promulgation of the arrest warrant and the legitimate defense of the rule of law undertaken almost unanimously by the legislature and the Supreme Court. Obama helped Chavez and Raul Castro isolate the poverty-stricken nation of Honduras for defending its own constitution.”

Our Congress appears to be totally content to ignore the most basic and elementary requirement that our President must be a natural born citizen. They are determined to continue to ignore the simple question—where is the birth certificate? This is the polar opposite of the Hondurans who were determined to see to it that their constitution was followed to the letter of the law.

Engel has belatedly awoken to the news that the Hondurans have a case. For that, we can thank Republicans in Congress who have insisted on explaining that case, working around the White House and the State Department to do so.

Sorry Ed, we have the internet to thank for informing the people of the true nature of this so-called "military coup" that the MSM and the white house kept pushing. Those in the WH, the State Department and Congress would have to know what was really happening (or if they didn't, then they don't belong there). Seems that the only criticism I'm seeing now is that they didn't just arrest him for his crimes against their constitution instead of deporting him out of the country. I'm open to a discussion on why they chose this option.

Nice to see the possibility of Hussein and his communist buddies being defeated on this front.

The new Honduran government needs to watch its back though--Hugo Chavez and his allies Raul Castro and Hussein Obama will certainly do their best to foment dissent from within.

Micheletti needs our support from conservatives in America. We can do that by contacting our Republican politicians in Congressfor their support to the new government.This will counter any MSM propaganda or Democratic attacks. We can use You Tube, Twitter and Facebook to promote the new Honduran government.
