Honduras is much closer to home than Iran, and I also Totally Mistrust the U.S. Media.

The Demonstration pictures are of Pro Constitution demonstrators, not those wanting the ousted Pres. back.

Let me remind you what is going on in this country.

Missouri National Guard Train to Kill “Militia Insurgents” in Exercise

The Missouri National Guard is training to engage in combat with “militia” groups, according to the News Tribune.

“During the battalion’s annual training exercise, eight members of the Jefferson City-based unit, acting as a fictitious militant group, attempted to disrupt the battalion’s operations through attacks and harassment. The battalion’s other two units, the Kansas City-based 205th Area Support Medical Company, and the Springfieldbased 206th Area Support Medical Company, fended off the attacks while performing their medical duties,” the newspaper reported on June 30.

National Guard training in Missouri and South Dakota prepares soldiers to confront and kill “insurgent” Americans.

The article was written by Silas Allen, a journalist with the Pentagon. In 2006, the Pentagon officially announced it would declare psychological warfare on the American people by planting propaganda in the corporate media and the Allen article is a less than covert part of this process.

An earlier article written by Silas Allen, also posted on the News Tribune website, details a Missouri National Guard unit practicing basic convoy operations during a training exercise in the Black Hills of South Dakota on June 14. During the exercise, an “insurgent group” with “a reputation for harassing convoys with ambushes and improvised explosive devices,” attacks the Guard convoy. “The unit was also told to look out for civilians trying to approach the convoy on the battlefield. The civilians could be working with the insurgent group or could simply have a legitimate complaint,” Allen writes.

The two exercises serve as prime examples of an orchestrated attempt by the government to train soldiers to militarily confront domestic “militia” groups.

In April, a leaked DHS report on “rightwing extremism” said “right-wing militias” will recruit veterans returning from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. “DHS/I&A assesses that rightwing extremists will attempt to recruit and radicalize returning veterans in order to exploit their skills and knowledge derived from military training and combat,” the report claims. “These skills and knowledge have the potential to boost the capabilities of extremists — including lone wolves or small terrorist cells — to carry out violence.”

The corporate media hyped the supposed threat posed by “lone wolves” after white supremacist and probable government operative James von Brunn allegedly attacked the Holocaust museum in Washington. “The lone wolf is what concerns the Washington field office, what concerns the FBI the most,” John Perren, head of the counterterrorism branch at the FBI’s Washington field office, told the Associated Press.

After Von Brunn’s brutal attack, the corporate media shill and government disinfo operative Glenn Beck attempted to link 9/11 truth activists to the deranged accused killer. The corporate media has attempted to link truth activists and patriots to the Von Brunn incident and an earlier one in Pittsburgh.

A report produced by the Missouri State Police, entitled “The Modern Militia Movement,” specifically characterizes constitutionalists and Ron Paul supporters as domestic terrorists. “Red flags outlined in the document include political bumper stickers such as those for U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, talk of conspiracy theories such as the plan for a mega-highway from Canada to Mexico and possession of subversive literature,” the Missouri Information Analysis Center report states.

That explanation is pretty much what I understood from the get-go.

IMO, this is mainly about cocaine trafficking.

Honduras is a narcoeconomy.

Obama is a Marxist dirtbag thug, dressed up in a phony, glib veneer designed to fool the ignorant.

Obama and his marxist posse don’t have much time to install this guy and change the Honduran constitution. Zelaya was up for election in November and it all has to be done before then if they hope to have any success.

Here is a wonderful chance for the GOP to start throwing up roadblocks.

“And if they removed Obama from office, would they be destroying the Constitution or preserving it?”

Since he can’t prove he’s a US citizen without a legitimate birth certificate, by kicking obozo’s a** to kingdom come the intent of the US Constitution, an idea that many have died to preserve, would remain intact, and the rule of law would prevail.

President Obama can’t speak out in support of Iranian protestors fighting for democracy, but can speak out against Hondurans defending their democracy.

Iran is a big, nasty country with lots of oil and terrorists to export, and protectors like Russia and China. Honduras has no oil, no terrorists, and no big, nasty countries to protect her. In addition, Honduras has ticked off Venezuela, which has lots of oil and alliances and/or substantial trade agreements with Iran, Russia, and China.

So if you're a pusillanimous thug from Chicago, whom would you choose to pick on?

Why do I feel that Honduras is our wakeup call? Bloggers know the real story there, but the MSM is following the Statist attitude.

I need to find some Honduras products to buy on the way home tonight.

“Imagine that Barack Obama announced that he was going to hold a referendum on legalizing a third term for himself. Imagine that even his attorney general, Eric Holder, advised him that it was illegal. Imagine that the Supreme Court ruled that holding the referendum was unconstitutional. In spite of that, let’s imagine that Obama coerced the FEC into holding the referendum anyway. Then – let’s further imagine — we found out that Venezuelan strongman Chávez (who has pulled off a similar power grab in his own country) was financing the referendum. What should the Joint Chiefs do in such a case? And if they removed Obama from office, would they be destroying the Constitution or preserving it?”

The "American Thinker" isn't. The Joint Chiefs would have no constitutional or legal authority to do ANYTHING.

In the end, it would be up to Congress to defend the constitution by impeaching the President.

Or possibly, the FBI to arrest him. There is no way in our system of government for the military to have anything to do with it.

In four (or eight) years we won't have to 'imagine.'

What should the Joint Chiefs do in such a case?


They’d have no choice but Declare Martial Law, establish a curfew and arrest all Republicans and Independents. The press would not be a problem and would be needed to process and distribute information to the unjailed populace. /s

Well stated, although the Joint Chiefs are advisors to the POTUS but not in the actual chain of command.

It would be up to the SecDef to mobilize the military and remove the POTUS (after the VP and the cabinet declared the POTUS unfit to continue, and acting on the authority of the VP).

Well, at least that's roughly what happened on '24'.
