(These newspaper people are not doing their homework. He is in Costa Rica.)

TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - Honduran President Manuel Zelaya, who was arrested by soldiers earlier on Sunday, is in Costa Rica and has asked for asylum, CNN’s Spanish-language channel reported, citing the Costa Rican government.

Zelaya, an ally of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, had provoked a political crisis after seeking to hold a consultative vote on constitutional reforms that a court ruled was illegal.

It’s too bad our commander in chief doesn’t fall under the UCMJ. The folks that tried that on Clinton ended up retiring that day or being charged with mutiny. Nothing like a good junta to liven up the weekend news.
