*Bump*

Senator DeMint just layed the smack down on the administration. It’s no wonder they didn’t want him to go: they knew he’d come back and write a piece like this.

He’s the best senator (or maybe congressman as well) that we have right now.

This is interesting:

why the U.S. government insists on labeling what appears to the entire country to be the constitutional removal of Mr. Zelaya a "coup," he urged me to read the legal opinion drafted by the State Department's top lawyer, Harold Koh. As it happens, I have asked to see Mr. Koh's report before and since my trip, but all requests to publicly disclose it have been denied.

State Department will not show congressmen its legal opinion

DeMint's closing comments...

"America's Founding Fathers—like the framers of Honduras's own constitution—believed strong institutions were necessary to defend freedom and democracy from the ambitions of would-be tyrants and dictators. Faced by Mr. Zelaya's attempted usurpations, the institutions of Honduran democracy performed as designed, and as our own Founding Fathers would have hoped."

"Hondurans are therefore left scratching their heads. They know why Hugo Chávez, Daniel Ortega and the Castro brothers oppose free elections and the removal of would-be dictators, but they can't understand why the Obama administration does."

"They're not the only ones."

from the article: “Hondurans are therefore left scratching their heads. They know why Hugo Chávez, Daniel Ortega and the Castro brothers oppose free elections and the removal of would-be dictators, but they can’t understand why the Obama administration does.”

Why must we play pin the tail on the donkey? We know why the black radical Marxist in the White House is siding with Castro, Chavez, and Ortega and why he is harming the US and our allies as best he can.

The guy attended the god damn america church for twenty years, he is beholden to the American communist domestic enemy and has filled the white house with trashey radical czars, he does all he can to empower election fraud through ACORN street thugs just like Chavez, Ortega, and the Catros. He is aiding and abetting all of our enemies and harming all of our allies as best he can. He is trying to bring jihadists captured in battle to the streets of the US.

It is perfectly clear why Obama and his minions are harming Honduros and aiding and abetting an comrade.
