Ousted Honduran President Expected In Washington (Hillary met w/Zelaya today)

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton plans to meet with deposed Honduran President Manuel Zelaya this week as the Obama administration weighs responses to his ouster.

The talks planned for Tuesday would be the administration's highest-level contact with Zelaya since he was overthrown in a coup eight days ago, coming two days after his failed attempt to return to Honduras deepened the country's political crisis.

Zelaya met with two senior U.S. diplomats in Washington on Sunday after the Organization of American States suspended Honduras for its role in the coup and before the deposed president tried to return to Honduras by plane. Zelaya got as close as several hundred feet above the Tegucigalpa airport but had to turn away because of obstacles placed on the runway on orders of the interim government.

Clashes between police and soldiers and Zelaya supporters left at least one fatality at the airport on Sunday and thousands of supporters have been marching to protest his overthrow. About 2,000 demonstrated peacefully Monday near the presidential palace.

Zelaya was in Nicaragua on Monday after a late Sunday news conference in El Salvador in which he urged world leaders to step up efforts to return him to power.

Diplomats with the United Nations, the OAS, the United States and European countries worked behind the scenes Monday to seek common ground with interim President Roberto Micheletti, who heads the government that replaced Zelaya. But Micheletti has vowed not to negotiate until "things return to normal."

One option under consideration is trying to forge a compromise between Zelaya, Micheletti and the Honduran military under which the ousted president would be allowed to return and serve out his remaining six months in office with limited and clearly defined powers, according to a senior U.S. official.

Marxist President for Life Thug, who FAILED IN HIS COUP ATTEMPT IN HONDURAS, greeted warmly by the occupying enemy (Obama) administration.

[Sunshine Sister]

It’s my understanding (not a real good one because the MSM hare obsessed with MJ) that this man was term limited out and he tried to usurp the constitution of Honduras. Am I wrong?

[FormerACLUmember]

Obama is clearly a Marxist (yes, Marxist) Manchurian Candidate hell bent on the intentional, malicious destruction of the United States and its democratic tradition.

It's not a freaking coup when upholding the rule of law by removing someone who refuses to abide the Constitution!

"Obama is clearly a Marxist (yes, Marxist) Manchurian Candidate hell bent on the intentional, malicious destruction of the United States and its democratic tradition."

All true of course, but the two legged cockroaches who put him in office are even more lowdown, and a greater enemy of our founding principles. Those who still care about our country had better pay attention to what goes on in places like Honduras, because we're well on our way to becoming a bananna republic. More than half the 'elected' members of the United States government are determined to make it so. Put another way...the fate of our republic is in the hands of people like Al Franken, Barney Frank and Henry Waxman.

I don't want to wear everybody out posting it so I'll just give you a link. Read at least one of the first two articles. The one by Hans Bader or the one by Oliver North. You'll have over 90% of the story then.

Skip the State Run Media. Find your own news.

[popdonnelly]

Why is our government so anxious to install a Marxist dictator?

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Hillary never met a red she didn’t like.

[khnyny]

Thanks for your post.

[khnyny]

I’m not so sure about that...could be damage control.

While 0’s away Hill will play?

[Osage Orange]

Just forget the ( Yes Marxist ) carp.....

Obama IS a SocialistMarxistDemocratLiberalCommie...lying POS.

[khnyny]

Why is our government so anxious to install a Marxist dictator?

Not all of our government, only some - remember, blanket statements don't reflect total reality.

But seriously, that's a damn good question....

[Sunshine Sister]

Thank you. I thought that I might be wrong, but alas not this time! Hehehehehehe. The MSM didn’t fool me!

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Hillary’s record of working with and/or admiring communists/marxists goes back to Saul Alinksy, the Black Panther-New Haven torture/murder case (CP lawyers, Charles R. Gary, Robert Treuhaft and his red wife, Jessica Mitford, law partners Burnstein and Walker, etc.) She was also a big supporter of Castro agent of influence Johnnetta Cole, now the head of the Smithsonian’s Afro-American Museum, and former member of Hillary’s transition team in 1992, and potential Secy of Education.

There are other reds in her closet, along with a lot of Mafiosos.
