Where is the outrage at our administration for trying to obstruct the legal actions of the Honduran Government?

We should commend the government of Honduras for preserving their constitutional democracy by removing their president as they did. It shows a rule of law and not of men as the supreme court there with the support of 85% of the legislature carried out this action. The press misreport this by calling it a "coupe", when if fact what they did is their constitutional obligation. They prevented a constitutional crises by not allowing their president to carry out an illegal attempt to amend an unchangeable part of their constitution which would have permitted him to be re-elected a la Chavez style.

    Well, there was no outrage when Bush overthrew Chavez for less than 24 hours a few years ago. The news didnt even mention it. We installed a dictator and the people rose up demanding Chavez be freed from prison. In less than 24 hours, our CIA was kicked out and Chavez back in power.

    If nobody cared when bush did it, obama - the prince - will get a clean pass for sure.

    Obama is afraid that the same thing will happen to him.
