"Zelaya can say whatever he wants, but the deal is that the Honduran Congress and Supreme Court would decide his fate. The Supreme Court will say that he cannot be returned to power, and Congress will agree. The decision will probably come after the Nov. 29 elections, and Zelaya won?t be able to do a damn thing when the Honduran institutions announce that the law is clear and Zelaya is constitutionally forbidden from returning to power."

I really hope you are correct, but I suspect that all sorts of pressure and inducements have been brought to bear against the members of the legislature to assure a favorable vote to return Zelaya to power. Then there will be constitutional changes and Zelaya will stay in power. The US MSM will turn away and Michiletti and other troublesome individuals will be imprisoned or killed. Obama will chalk up the accomplishment.

Is he even going to be allowed to run for re election? That alone is contrary to the Honduran constitution and if he runs and gets re elected the courts and the legislature in Honduras won’t be able to do a damn thing about it since all this stupidity on the part of our govt will start all over again.

If Zelaya returns he will return for ‘life’ and the recriminations and list of the ‘disappeared’ will surpass even El Salvador. But, as long as Zelaya is Hugo Chavez’ and Obama’s butt-boy it will be all sweetness and light with another ‘peoples’ dictatorship.

Same here. For the first time in my life I am ashamed to be an American.

I think I was just becoming a freeper about that time and just getting into politics. I wasn't sure which side was right, but our republican brothers in the Senate supported Clinton on it, and I'm always behind our military (see my alias). My son's squadron commander was an F16 pilot during that war.

I would hope that a proud member of the Honduran Military would take the proper action and solve the problem!

I know some Hondurans and they are telling me that if the legislature goes along with this they will be out of office in the next go around.

I think this is a compromise that will be honored to the letter and will result in Mel not taking office.

Hussein and the Hildebeast are not friends of freedom. Power hungry thugs that need to be contained, period.

The Chinese could threaten to cut off our line of credit and the Russians will probably threaten to nuke us (and cut off the oil supply and end our credit) if we vote Obama out.

No, he can’t run for reelection, and Zelaya did not demand that he be allowed to run; he’s asking to be reinstated until the term ends in January. But he won’t even get that.

That's one of the problems with thinking in terms of republican instead of conservative - pubbies-in-office are most often only a faction of the same mob that is in charge today.

That's also why 'bipartisan' has such a bad name - it always seems to be an agreement to do things the way the left wants them done. (Or in 1999, the way Germany, France and their allies wanted it done)

I've met guys who flew over Hanoi and would be interested in hearing them compare their experience with flying bomb runs over Belgrade.

There were some pretty heated discussions in FR during the '99 happenings.

The nephew of the interim President of Honduras Roberto Micheletti has been found dead in what the police are calling an execution-style killing.

Keep in mind this was 2 or 3 days before the US delegation arrived.
