Surely no one with the ability to reason still expects Obama to keep any promise he has made.
Did you vote for that creep?Why not third party?
Yes, just like they did in Haiti... {{{crickets chirping}}}
Obama fears what happened in Honduras will happen to him.
And he is right to be afraid. Americans are furious.
Clinton supported Fidel Castro in the Elian dispute. He used the military on behalf of Muslims against the Serbs. With the Left what is up is down and what is down is up. What is evil is good and what is good is evil.
I would not put anything past the Left. But if he did attack, he would be real sorry because politically, that would enrage the country. So I don’t think this is true.
Yes unfortunately I did vote for him.
immigration..my mistake...and believing he might really mean what he says since he was young..but I was wrong..he is a better expert at lying than the rest.
Palmerola and Soto Cano but lately things have been stopped because all military exercises and cooperation are at a stand still which brings into question why the planes if they have called it a coup? That is basically forbidden according to the Foreign Securities Act. That is what worries me.
Yeah but ours have Honduran flags...US equipment has American flags..an F 22 is something we just don´t have...
My son is a soldier in the US military...I hope he isn´t included because I don´t want to see him have to refuse to obey but I cannot envison him going along with invading the country his mother and step father and brother live in.
U.S. equipment is given by the Department of Defense through the U.S. Army to the Honduran Defensive ministry. The M-16 rifle is a standard issue rifle for the Honduran Army.The M151 military vehicle is an American issued light vehicle given to the Honduran Army.

I do not think the equipment received by the Honduran Army has any flag. They are usually coming from straight from the manufacturer.
If there’s to be an invasion of Honduras, there will be a build up of hostilities, first. When it gets to the stage where they start showing some threat to some Americans, then there will be a probability of action.
Honduras poses NO threat to America or America’s interests. Honduras poses a threat to Obama’s interests. He can order an incursion without anyone’s prior approval and the troops have to go. Obama is the CIC.
There are protocols in place to slow that down. While true that the Cinc can order, it is also true that there are legal ties slowing things down. For one thing, there must be some demonstrated threat.
