hhhhmmmm...
seems eerily similar to a post I just read.
Yo, you've had Castro in the hemisphere for 50 years! A return to barbarism?
Good job, nicely written...
The nations' envoys soon will take up their former posts. The move, analysts say, reflects Obama's desire for better Latin American relations and President Hugo Chavez's need to improve his image.

Reporting from Bogota, Colombia, and Washington -- In a potentially significant step toward repairing their tattered relationship, the United States and Venezuela have formally agreed to resume full diplomatic relations, the State Department announced Thursday.
Department spokesman Ian Kelly said the two nations exchanged notes that in effect formalized pledges that President Obama and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez made at the Summit of the Americas in April to reinstall ambassadors who were expelled in September.
U.S. Ambassador Patrick Duddy and his Venezuelan counterpart, Bernardo Alvarez, soon will resume their former posts in Caracas and Washington, respectively, Kelly said. Each country's embassy had remained open and formal relations were never fully cut.
And the muzzie marxist in chief does this at the same time that fat red SOB Chavez is threatening to close down the last TV station that still has the balls to criticize him.
Clearly Hussein is sending a message of approval to the communist thug, and putting news networks in the US on notice that this can and will happen here too if they don't toe the party line.
Baraka Hussein is completely out of control.
CARACAS, Venezuela — President Hugo Chavez threatened to close down an opposition-sided news network, saying the defiant Globovision channel's days on the airwaves will be numbered if its directors don't stand down.
Chavez on Thursday urged executives at Globovision "to reflect" upon the TV channel's tough anti-government stance — or else the station "won't be on the airwaves much longer."
The socialist leader has threatened Globovision before, demanding sanctions against the channel for its alleged violation of broadcast regulations. Chavez told a crowd of his supporters on Thursday that he "doesn't care" if such a decision were to draw international criticism.
Chavez recently called for sanctions against Globovision, and within a week Venezuela's tax agency slapped the network with a $2.3 million fine, prosecutors charged its president in a probe into alleged fraud and lawmakers began investigating the channel for purportedly joining an anti-government conspiracy.
Broadcast regulators also are investigating Globovision for inciting "panic and anxiety" during its coverage of a minor earthquake last month, when station director Alberto Federico Ravell criticized state television for failing to quickly inform its viewers about the severity of the quake.
Like CHAVEZ OSSABAMA only approves libtard coups
It’s disgusting that not even the Washington Times mentions that the Supreme Court ordered the “coup” — actually, a restoration of democracy.
And it’s depressing that the Honduras military doesn’t put out a statement to that effect, a repeated statement, that forces the world’s commie press to at least report that they said it.
If this was a coup, surely someone can tell me the name of the general who now controls the country, right?
Best explanation I have heard John!
Hey Hugo,
Hey Fidel,
You boys a little nervous? You both should be.
Well your days are numbered and short chumps.
Not taking our calls...it's going to be a long four years.

2 Leftist leaders supporting another.
Reckon Hugo & Bozo would go peacefully?
Like Chavez, Zelaya doesn't think much of term limits and his country's constitution.
On another note, The Messiah should be worried about a coup of his own. He might one day be praying for exile.
If there were any doubts as to the leaning of our president, they are clear now...
Obama siding with Castro and Chavez against the ouster of a potential dictator who as trying to circumvent his nation’s constitution says it all...
We have a wanna-be dictator occupying the White House...
The military removing an illegitimate, fascist, leftist thug.
Why would that concern Hussein?
At least two of the Latin American countries have constitutional presidential term limits. I suspect this resulted from dealing with past tyrants. Paraguay also has term limits, however, every time Strausser's term was up, a constitutional amendment was passed to allow an additional term. Thus he was "President for Life" although it was illegal. It appears that Honduras wrote their constitution to preclude such an eventuality there.
