The Pentagon says it has put cooperation with the Honduran military on hold. Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman says the United States has "postponed" joint operations in light of last weekend's military coup against that country's president.

Nevermind that it wasn’t a coup.
I would not put it past Rahmbo to cite altercations between US troops and Honduran forces. Rally the troops, blacklist “unpatriotic” types, yadadyadada
Guess the fact that we want the drug running little dictator in power is out in the open now.
Why do they keep reporting it as a Military Coup? They were following their Constitution. The Guy they arrested was attempting the Coup.
That slimey Manuel Ortega of Sandanista fame in Nicaragua must be readying the troops.
I was thinking, by doing this Honduras might turn to China for aid. Thus giving China a greater foothold in the Americas.
When I read that I said to myself," You mean some of OUR generals and admirals have reread their oath?"
My wife is down in South America running a meeting with several hundred LA participants, including from Honduras. She says the large majority are in favor of what the Honduran Supreme Court, Electoral College, Legislature, and military did. The only quibble seems to be that the Legislature should have voted to impeach (in the middle of the night, I guess), then arrested him. But the Legislature had apparently already voted unanimously to deny him his effort to subvert their constitution.
They may have acted faster because they were afraid of “outside agitators” (read, Chavez) overthrowing them. Remember that their now ex-president had just led a rather violent gang of thugs into a military base to grab and distribute the fraudulent ballots for the illegal referendum on allowing him another term that CHAVEZ had sent him from Venezuela.
The difference between what happened and what I hear our media and administration presenting as having happened is beyond belief.
(Remember also that Insulza (OAS), who has given the Hondurans three days to take him back (I predict they will not) is the guy who wanted to bring Cuba back into the OAS).
These people just keep ignoring the facts.
Thre was no coup.
So, Honduras is on their own if Venezuela actually acts as Chavez has threatened.
Reinstalling a marxist dictator, who subverted the Honduran constitution as well as the will of the people, is more important than preventing Venezuelan expansion by force, apparently.
Those narcostates must pay very well.
Very well indeed.
Once you realize that the media routinely pedals fiction as fact, a whole new awareness of the world opens up. The reporting on Honduras is one of MANY misrepresentations.
And then, consider the number of newsworthy events that are not reported at all! The public's world view is a complete fiction. This is not new with the Obama administration. This has been going on since approximately the advent of radio, and certainly with the advent of television.
So following Obama’s logic, Nixon suffered a coup.
There are reasons and very good reasons why your don’t just exile tyrants, they can come back to haunt you.
Hope “other” American Countries like Norte, see the implications Hondurous may suffer because they tried to be civil in dealing with a traitorous dictator wannabe.
0bama is looking more and more like Mao every day. How long before he’s encouraging uprisings here to cleanse the U.S. of evil rule of law supporting conservatives?
I believe that Obama is planning to do something simular in the future possibly as early as 2010 ( Congressional elections )if things don’t go his way the problem is which way will Federal law enforcement side with the Constitution or the politicians that promise them all the power they ever dreamed of. Keep your powder dry & your weapons cleaned & oiled.
And my tongue sharp! ;-)
