“. It also seemed that a number of Government and Police Vehicles had bit hit by the Communist Reds in the streets in support of Ex-Presidente.”

More blodshed. Obama is a party to this, one way or another.

So now we are trying to impose a socialist dictator on a Central American country? Isn’t this similar to what the Left accused previous Administrations of doing? Let like things be considered the same way.

"Honduras is following their constitution and we need to stay out of it."

Actually, I would like Palin to fly to Tegucegalpa and give a needed speech ( to Americans) on the subject of

"A Short Refressher Course on the Meaning of Constitutional Democracy."

We definitely need a refresher.

“We are a little country among the community of nations but our nation’s larger mission is to
protect human rights, democracy, the Constitution and the rule of law. “

Well, that rules out Obama.

“What’s with Brazil? I mean I would understand if Zelaya were holed up in our embassy under the protection of our Dear Leader. But Brazil? Why are they giving aid and comfort to this guy?”

Because Obama just gave billions of American taxpayer dollars to Brazil. Brazil apparently will do whatever Obama requests as long as our money flows in.

"Honduras needs to send in one of their elite units to take out this little commie/socialist scmick."

Actually, for the US, it would be better if this remains a standoff for awhile, so attention will be drawn to the FACT that Obama and Hillary are enemies of the very idea of a "Constitution."

President Lula of Brazil is a leftist and racist who has made frequent statements blaming the problems of the world on "white people." A regular Obama soulmate.

I'm sure he also appreciates Obama's diverting of billions (with a "B") of US taxpayer dollars to Brazil's Petrobras to drill for oil in the Atlantic.

Side note: The biggest stockholder in Petrobras is the Brazilian government. The second biggest is George Soros.

According to this source, it was published in Honduran newspapers on August 24.

The source includes a link to a PDF version of the official release.

I've posted this several times already on FR, but here it is again for those who haven'yet t seen it and aren't aware of this bizarre sidebar to the Zelaya affair:

Rich Man, Poor Plan (Venal hippie millionaire manipulated 2005 Honduras election)

Allen Andersson Made a Bundle, Then Made Things Happen -- for a While -- in Honduras

By Manuel Roig-Franzia Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, July 14, 2009

Allen Andersson made a fortune. Three times.

Richer each time, and ever less interested in being rich.

[snip]

And then, there's one of his all-time favorite multimillion-dollar gambits, the time he played presidential kingmaker in Honduras . . . and won. Barely noticed outside Tegucigalpa, Andersson assumed a key -- many say decisive -- offstage role in the 2005 election of Manuel "Mel" Zelaya, the recently deposed president of Honduras.

... Andersson spoke for the first time about what he proudly describes as the "shenanigans" he orchestrated in the final days of the 2005 upset. It is a saga sprinkled with heaps of cash, private detectives, sting operations, attack ads, internecine squabbles and Andersson's epic grudge against Zelaya's wealthy, dashing opponent, Porfirio "Pepe" Lobo, whose last name means "wolf" in Spanish.

[snip]

By the time the ballots were counted, Andersson estimates he had spent $2 million trying to influence the outcome.

[snip]

Then came the hard part. Zelaya struggled as president, alienating his base by cultivating leftist allies, such as Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Evo Morales of Bolivia. With Honduras ever mired in poverty and crime, Zelaya tried to circumvent the nation's supreme court and pushed for a referendum on whether the constitution should be changed to allow him to serve a second term. He was ousted on June 28.

His American sponsor offered no sympathy. "The guy who won," Andersson says of Zelaya, "has been such a lazy, ineffective and clownish jerk that I almost regret it sometimes."

Please consider what is being asked of our country:
Break the Constitution. Ignore the rule of law.

We would never ask another nation to ignore its Constitution and trample on the rule of law much less urposely violate its Constitution ...

No need to ask -- the USA did it willingly and apparently Americans do not have the intestinal fortitude of the Hondurans.

God speed Honduras!

Honduras

Thanks for posting. I had not seen this.

Andersson estimates he had spent $2 million trying to influence the outcome

So, Honduras had their own Soros, albeit he had to spend a LOT less than old George.
