BOGOTA – The regime that ousted Manuel Zelaya in Honduras claimed Tuesday that the deposed president allowed tons of cocaine to be flown into the Central American country on its way to the United States.

"Every night, three or four Venezuelan-registered planes land without the permission of appropriate authorities and bring thousands of pounds ... and packages of money that are the fruit of drug trafficking," its foreign minister, Enrique Ortez, told CNN en Espanol.

"We have proof of all of this. Neighboring governments have it. The DEA has it," he added.

U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration spokesman Rusty Payne in Washington said he could neither confirm nor deny a DEA investigation.

Zelaya was traveling from New York to Washington and could not immediately be reached to respond to the allegations.

Better use the back door Zelaya. Zero might not anyone see you.

[Nachum]

Now to connect this to the White House....

[Rebelbase]

If true, validates Chavez’s conniption fit.

[TheClintons-STILLAnti-American]

Fantastic graphic.

Thanks

[Uncle Chip]

the plot thickens

Indeed it does. Your move, Obama.

[True Republican Patriot]

Chavez purposely throws cow dung in Obozo’s face, the Fat Boy from North Korea treats him like Bozo the Clown, and Castro laughs in Obozo’s face while Obozo Kisses the soles of the Saudi King’s shoes and Obozo’s wife gets Plastered in Public during an Outrageous MultiMillion Dollar Dinner Date in NYC!
Remember how Rodney Dangerfield keep screaming about HOW HE got No Respect!!
OBOZO is rapidly setting New Records for Dispicable Behavior that is Earning the Ridicule of the World!

[HotLead61]

Venezuelan planes, you say?

Helps explain Hugo's "intense interest", no?

[True Republican Patriot]

Obozo may not want Zilaya, but Zilaya may have a deal Obozo cant refuse!

[penelopesire]

“Zelaya was traveling from New York to Washington and could not immediately be reached to respond to the allegations.

Arrest the B@$+@rd!”

He was probably meeting with quite a few democrats on capitol hill today...possibly even Obama himself or one of his representatives.

[saganite]

This is undoubtedly true and will be characterized as character assasination. The country will be returned to the Marxist and all eyes will turn away while he enslaves his country. Thanks to Soetero and the UN.

[paulycy]

It would be great for the Honduras govt to air the dirty drug laundry of their ex prez and chavez and whoever else might connect to the US.

Then watch zer0 run for cover.

[aynrandfreak]

It's going to be tough for Obama to ignore this. Also from the article...

In its most recent report on the illicit narcotics trade, the U.S. State Department said in February of Honduras that "official corruption continues to be an impediment to effective law enforcement and there are press reports of drug trafficking and associated criminal activity among current and former government and military officials."

[HotLead61]

Thanks to Soetero and the UN.

If it indeed happens that way, then the UN will be fully exposed as being the malevolent force that it is...to those “fair-minded” souls who have hesitated, so far, to acknowledge the facts. The moonbats won’t bat an eye, though.

[Lexinom]

Even more appropriate, since the Macaw is Honduras’ national bird.

“The drugs arrive in Honduras on non-commercial aircraft from Venezuela”

Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.

Helps explain Hugo's "intense interest", no?

His main interest is in spreading communist dictatorships in Latin America, with Russia's eager help of course.
