I thought Obama and the Democrats promised to be less "bullying" in the world and to end the appearance of the US as heavy-handed. I thought they were going to end the "alienating" of US allies. Yet the Obamanistas are trampling on relations with Israel, the UK, Germany, France and Honduras among others as they blow kisses to America's enemies instead. If only Obama had been this tough on Iran's Mullahs as they were massacring their own people in the streets last summer and fall. But then Iran isn't an ally.

Can you imagine if Bush had engaged in this kind of bald faced intimidation and interference in a Latin American nation to get a right wing tin pot restored to power? The Democrats and their organ grinder monkeys in the media would never let up on the hue and cry they'd create over it.

It's easy to see that the common denominator involving those countries that the Obama administration supports, versus those that it opposes, is whether or not there is an embrace of capitalism.

Zelaya wanted to socialize the now relatively free Guatemalan economy, thus he was supported. Israel? An island of capitalism in a sea of managed economies must be cut down to size.

Chavez and Castro are coddled while England and Germany are treated rudely. It will be interesting to see what negative measures accrue to Chile now that they've elected a conservative President.
