Pic of the Day: Hondurans Ask Obama to Help Them Defend Their ConstitutionZelaya's court-ordered, congressionally-approved replacement says the only way Zelaya returns to power is at the head of an invading foreign army. Which isn't out of the question, which sort of suggests that maybe Honduras was right to depose this guy. TNR has a good article scolding Obama for fetishizing the trappings of democracy while undermining the reality of it. Interesting reading: unday's coup in Honduras has been portrayed as a throwback to the bad old days when Latin American armies got drafted in as the ultimate umpires of political conflict. But in arresting president Manuel Zelaya in his pajamas and putting him on the first plane out of the country, Honduras's generals were acting out of fear of a genuine and growing threat to Latin Democracy: the looming prospect of unchecked, hyper-empowered executive power held for life by a single, charismatic individual. The Honduran constitution, then, expressly forbids any attempt by a president to change the constitution to seek additional terms -- for good reason, of course, given the tendency of Latin American "democracies" to endure for precisely as long as a current president wishes to allow elections. It further deputizes the Supreme Court in guaranteeing this one-term-only-no-exceptions clause, and further strips the citizenship from anyone attempting any shenanigans. Naturally, then, Obama's on Zelaya's side. [W]alzer was hardly the only liberal making bleak excuses for Obama's zealous refusal to show any zeal. We shall not be moved, indeed. But Walzer got it exactly backward.... I don't think it's just about being an "un-ugly American." We have twice now seen Obama ally with tyrants, actual or would-be, over democrats, simply because those tyrants were historically the sorts supported by the anti-American left. Meanwhile he continues to deliberately snub Britain, a former colonial power despised by the anti-American left. As Goldfinger said, "Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence. The third time it's enemy action." UN Ambassador Rice Refuses to Call Iran's Government "Illegitimate;" Justifies "Meddling" In Honduras, Though: Odd that some coups are worth pointing out and others are not. I disagree with this: Like it or not, The One’s going to end up having to pick a side here and siding with the regime simply isn’t viable politically. The only question is when he’ll throw in with Mousavi. Tick tock. I hate to say it but it seems the revolution is crushed. A bit of gasoline thrown on the fire at a key moment could have engulfed the country, but Obama instead threw sand on it. Obama won't have to choose because, with his tacit permission, the regime is going to kill everyone it can get away with killing and arrest and beat those it can't. Then Obama gets his way, gets his thuggish pals back in power and has overseas pen pals to exchange love letters with, and can bask in the praise of the tyranny-loving left. Just Curious: If I'm right and Obama has engineered, to the extent he can, the continued power of the mullahs, will anyone in the media question him on "losing Iran"? Hmmmm... Putting lie to Spaceballs' claim that evil will always prevail, because good is dumb. Or at east providing some nuance -- evil is dumb, too. The ballots Ahmadinejad is displaying on TV, to prove he "won," appear completely fake, all with the same signature and all crisp and unfolded. Like they were all just run off a printer, which of course they were. | Recent Comments
