Obama says Honduras coup illegal

President Obama: ''Honduras coup was not legal''

US President Barack Obama has described the removal of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya as illegal.

His remarks came after left-wing Latin American leaders declared their support for the deposed leader, who was expelled by the military on Sunday.

In Honduras, pro-Zelaya protestors have been demonstrating in the country's capital, Tegucigalpa.

Mr Zelaya's removal followed a power struggle over his plans for constitutional change.

The BBC's Stephen Gibbs in Tegucigalpa says all day hundreds of pro-Zelaya protesters have been taunting the thousands of soldiers deployed around the presidential residence, accusing them of taking part in a "criminal coup

Chavez Vows To 'Stand By Iran'
After Oil Talks In Tehran, Venezuelan Leader Called 'Brother' By Ahmedinejad

"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other. Chavez is a source of a progressive and revolutionary current in South America and his stance in restricting imperialism is tangible.'":

Obama is an idiot.

He's something a lot worse than that.

[The Magical Mischief Tour]

Does it scare anyone when looking back on history you begin to think that maybe Carter wasn’t so bad after all... when compared to this idiot?

“Mr Zelaya’s removal followed a power struggle over his plans for constitutional change”

ObaMugabe plans on ignoring our Constitution to remain in power.

I hope when the military is sent to remove him...

[Jeff Head]

Here is the telling thing about what happened in Honduras. EVERY Marxist in the Western Hemisphere is against it, including the Marxist Obama who is arm-and-arm with his marxist friends, Chavez and Castro on this.

That tells you that what the Honduras military did at the request of its Supreme Court and w/support from its legislature was correct, and avoided a move by Marxists to circumvent the Honduran constitution and entrench marxism in Honduras.

Bravo for them...shame on Obama, and down with his marxist dogma and ideology!

Obama calls it illegal in honduras, not iran- maybe he just hates the jews?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8125292.stm

President Obama: “Honduras coup was not legal”

Someone remind me when coups were once “legal”. Even slow persons have been given so much to work with by this inept pretender, it has to come down to sheer delusion that people haven’t turned on Obama.

[4rcane]

Maybe Obama wants his 3rd term and unilaterally change the constitution from the executive branch

[okie01]

Does he have any idea who he is siding with!?!??!?!

He knows exactly who he is siding with.

This administration won't stand up to Islamic dictatorial thugs.

And, now, they stand in favor of Latin American dictatorial thugs.

It couldn't be more clear...

[Man from Oz]

and, also an asswipe! Hard to believe we have this imbecile at the helm of this great country. God save us.

[manapua]

Serious question: what nation is the voice of the free world these days?

[ryan71]

The media are finally getting want they want in America.

Communism.

[eclecticEel]

No, Zero, the Honduras Supreme Court has already ruled that the removal of their President was in fact legal. Incidentally, I don’t know of anything particularly illegal about Iran either.

[FreeSouthernAmerican]

This was not a coup, was it? I thought all this was legal based on their country’s laws and constitution. Barry is a DUmby.
