Secretary of State Hillary Clinton moved to terminate aid to Honduras today in response to a June 28 coup that deposed its elected President Jose Manuel Zelaya. The U.S. also decided to revoke visas for officials in the de facto government and supporters of Zelaya's overthrow.
"Today's, you know, action sends a clear message to the de facto regime that the status quo is unacceptable and that their strategy, to try to run out the clock on President Zelaya's term of office, you know, is unacceptable. And the time has come for all the parties to sign the San Jose accords," State Department spokesman PJ Crowley told reporters.

We knew this was coming. Unfortunately for Obama and Hillary, 150 million in aid is going there anyway.
The silence from the our republicans “leaders” on this is deafening!!
What the hell is it with these libs, they always back the wrong guys?????
Freakin’ mooooooorrrroons
Hang in there Hondurans, eventually the commies will be routed out of D.C. and hopefully some common sense and honesty will return.
“This is incredible, just as HillBilly Clinton supported the invading mooslims in Bosnia...”
Let’s not forget about the Haitian dictator that the Clintoons welcomed to these shores and then helped reinstate!
bttt
could somebody post a translation of the Honduras Constitution’s relevant passages? We’ve got to start hammering the media and our Comradesmen hard, day after day, with the truth, because:
NO ONE ELSE WILL DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
Zeyala did what the left accused Bush of doing, but now they defend it.
It wasn’t a ^%&^$^$&() &*(^^^* “coup”, you worthless lying disneyfied MORONS!!!!
And the Left accuses conservatives of stealing food from the poor! Hondurus is the second poorest nation in the Americas (only Haiti is poorer).
You're right! Sarah should step up and lead on this. No other Republican has the guts to do it.
And where are the 3 conservative talkers, Rush, Beck, and Levin?
On top of everything else, now Hillary is channeling Caroline Kennedy.
DAMN IT, it never stops with these freakin’ libs
Today from NAFBPO from Honduran news:
– Hermosillo, Sonora – 09/02/09
Micheletti will participate in an international march against Hugo Chavez
The de facto president of Honduras, Roberto Micheletti, announced that he will join an international protest march against the president of Venezuela, accompanied by Honduran civic organizations. He said that he will participate and asked the Honduran populace to participate because “we don’t want dictators of any kind.”
Micheletti, who was elected by the Parliament after Manuel Zelaya was deposed, gave no details about his participation. The anti-Chavez march was convened by a Colombian civic platform via Facebook, and has received positive responses on that social network from users in Colombia, Venezuela, United States, Israel, Canada, Peru, Ecuador, Spain and France. Micheletti”s government broke diplomatic relations with Venezuela last July because of “threats” of military action by Chavez, who is an ally of Zelaya, who was overthrown by the Armed Forces on June 28. The organizations Democratic Civic Union (UCD) and Honduras es Nuestra (Honduras is Ours) have organized marches and had demonstrations and rallys in rejection of Zelaya and Chavez.

BUMP
Jefferson said that Liberty and freedom come from God almighty, not from the potentate...They threw the usurper out of Honduras, which is what all freedom loving people must do...Who are these dictators who are so self-important that they should make the crazy new rules?
Where is the Republican defense of the rule of law? Spineless weasels!
This is clearly another example of Obama favoring a marxist leaning system over a democartic leaning system. He needs to go ahead and snuggle up with Chavez and Castro and Ortega. It would be the Obamicommiepalooza.
