Yet Washington has pulled the Visas of the acting Honduran President although he acted in accordance with the Honduran Constitution, Article 239 which reads "No citizen who has already served as head of the executive branch can be president or vice president. Whoever violates this law or proposes its reform, as well as those who support such violation directly or indirectly, will immediately cease in its functions and will be unable to hold any public office for a period of 10 years." The Honduran Legislature voted almost unanimously (except for the 8 members of the Honduran Communist Party, go figure) as well as their Supreme Court to remove President Manuel Zelaya IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR CONSTITUTION. Am I missing something here? We welcome Gaddafi and Ahmadinejad but refuse a representative that stood up for his country's law? Why is Obama and Clinton so upset about the actions of the Honduran Legislature?

Obama’s Amerika, including the SCOTUS, hates Constitutions,
and hates all Democracies, like England, France, Israel,
Poland. Instead, they only support terrorists like
in Iran, Venezuela, Libya, and NK.

Elections have consequences.
In this case, America has changed sides.

This should be a classic. As the Generals report on the Afgan Crisis was leaked by the Pentagon because Obama was trying to bury it until after ramming down healthcare. The man cares less about our troops dying than getting his socialized medicine hoax. What a mess.
