Unbelievable. The Obama Administration knew that Manuel Zelaya was an anti-democratic anti-Semitic pig whose goal was to become ruler for life like his buddy Hugo Chavez. But, Team Obama decided to support him for the greater good of Latin American relations. Barack Obama even cut off aid to Honduras in order to appease tyrant Hugo Chavez.

Obama AND Hillary totally ignored constitutional government in Honduras.
According to Article 239 of the Honduran constitutional, it is unconstitutional for any sitting Honduran president to do anything to encourage changing the constitution to allow for a second Presidential term, under penalty of immediate removal from office.. Zelaya ignored this and pushed for a referendum (he already had the ballots printed upby Chavez, no less).
The Supreme Court of Honduras voted unanimously that he had to step down, as did the unicameral Honduran National Assembly by an overwhelming margin, even his own party voted that he had violated the Constitution and had to step down.
It was AFTER he refused to step down, that the military was asked by the Judicial and Legislative branches to remove Zelaya. This was NOT a military coup by any serious definition.
Neither Obama nor Clinton appear to possess the slightest understanding of the concept of Constitutional Government. Maybe they are just racists and think they know better than the brown people of Honduras what Honduras needs.

So, help me out here. Does Chavez give our fearless leader, Obammy, the same leg tingle that Chris Matthews gets? Because it seems as though whatever Hugo wants, Hugo gets.
Of COURSE it was known by the White House! Was there ever ANY doubt about this??????????
Obama did the same thing in Iran! This isn’t ‘realpolitik’...it’s creeping marxism and Obama is in on the plan.
Obama will always support the leftist dictator, the Marxist,
as he will be so like Obama himself ...
Read what he told Dr John C Drew at Occidental
19 yrs old and already a fully developed Marxist revolutionary.
And bragging about it.
Can you remember the names of other others on the list?
This was already well known, at least here on FR.
When are they going to say that Barack Obama was born in Kenya?
Obviously, so.
I just have not been able to get over this, and when I saw the Wikileaks confirmation of the administrations frankly EVIL role in this, I just wanted to barf.
Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to find an American reporter who ACTUALLY cares about the importance of constitutional government.
Not sure I get your question.
Impeachment is too good

Yes, but nowhere else. The MSM were afraid to touch it for fear of disturbing their Royal Godling in the White House.

Oh, I was a bit vague. We had a Honduras Ping List during the crisis. I could only remember two other members on the list ... was hoping I’d remember the others so that they could be pinged to this thread. :)
Obama is a Socialist Pig - so why wouldn’t he back someone like him?
It was the common belief here at FR.
