Ousted Honduras Leader in Washington Tuesday
VOA ^ | August 31, 2009

A senior U.S. State Department official says ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya will meet in Washington Tuesday with members of the Organization of American States.

The State Department says the Obama administration still intends to make a formal determination that Mr. Zelaya's overthrow was a coup. Such action means that a suspension of most U.S. aid to the Central American country would become permanent. The determination was to have been made last week.

The official said talks with the two sides in the dispute is a factor in the delay. The official said this is an inter-agency decision "that everybody has to be comfortable with."

Another lefty comes begging the Obama administration for re-appointment by the National Socilaist King of the USA.

( The Lefty President of Honduras in Exile, "US refuses to diplomatically recognize the Honduras government" will be coming, as the Obama Islolationist Policies continue.)

Every lefty leader in the World should come to Washington to supplicate Resident Obama.)

I would have thought that Zelaya displayed such a series lack of cojones when he played cha cha cha on the Nicaraguan Honduran border that he would have slithered back under whatever rock he came from and accepted the state of affairs. I was obviously wrong. I would have thought in the Latin culture to be seen as such a p@ssy would be to lose all credibility.

Puta big time. He wants Obama to send in the IS Marines to take back his seat.

What a laugh. These lefties sure do like to cling to power, and he was deposed for policies that the people DID NOT want.

I havent read about serious riots in Honduras, They seem to have made a decision to chuck this turd and be done with him. They appear to be peacefully doing just fine without him, Why should we stick our nose in their business so they can put this would-be dictator in power.

Honduras made the mistake of trying to be nice. They should have made this guy dissappear.

That's what's up with the the "formal determination" designation. This is pathetic. Honduras has offered to have a third person, their SC leader, to take the presidency until the new elections. Why they are insisting on having Zelaya back as the president is beyond me.

Until January 2013 (if not sooner), when everything Obama and his administration have done is rolled back.

The main lesson for us here is that the State Dept. is controlled by anti-American communist sympathizers.
