The Honduran military surrounded the Presidential Palace in Tegucigalpa on Sunday morning, kidnapped President Manuel Zelaya in his pajamas and packed him off to Costa Rica in a plane.

There is no hope for those people.
The Lefties in Santa Cruz I mean.
Oh Mama’s grade: Is there something lower than “F?”
“Zactly.
Ya know, at Fort Benning the Honduran military comes to to receive training at the WHINSEC (Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation).
Now I’m thinking they need to come and teach us classes in Constitutional Preservation.
Excuse me, Mr. Intellectual, but isn't this sentence a contradiction? Let me see if I understand you correctly. Obambi should end interventionist policies by, ummmmmmmmm, intervening? I guess that only makes sense at Berkley.
Actually they need to teach Congress about Constitutional Preservation.
Everytime I hear this update on Honduras....I keep wanting to ask the reporter on TV the magic question...so how do you change the constitution?
This entire Honduras episode revolves around an idiot who grew up there and finally grasped the fundamentals of the constitution. If you disagree with any part of it...there were established procedures to change things. Sadly, going to the public with a bunch of ballots published in Venezuela...for a public vote...isn’t one of the procedures to change the constitution (note, it’s not the US method either).
The curious thing is that the dimwit there wanted to make this happen in a hurry....and needed the support of the military to get these ballots out to the public. The military, the political backers of the president and the Honduran Supreme court....all said that this was wrong and violated the constitution (note: you won’t hear any member of CNN mention the word “constitution” either).
As for any punishment that folks want to dish on Honduras...here is the joke. The original term of the guy kicked out...was to end in December. A new election was already scheduled because he was finishing up his four years. So a new guy will be elected in Honduras and standing by January of 2010. The idiots in the White House and various other media groups....have no choice but accept that guy.
This is the best script for a Woody Allen movie ever....”Banana Republic meets the Constitutional Republic”.
Who in the world can write a sentence like that with a straight face?
FAIL
The same old Leftist answer: "It must be the Will of the People!" Prepare yourself, Obama WILL pull this s*** if he gets elected a second term. He will NOT follow the US Constitution. He will scream what Al Gore screamed in 2000, "Count every vote! Follow the Will of the People!" And the idiots will follow it and the MSM will trumpet it. You'd be amazed at how many "educated" people I meet who talk about following the "Will of the People". They're totally brain-dead about the law or the process of the law. Just like their spiritual daddy, Obama.
