Obama Continues To Undermine Democracy And The Rule Of Law In Honduras In New And Exciting Ways

As I say to my liberal friends, "I told you if we elected Obama we'd be getting a hard left ideologue. And I was right!".

One idea the administration is considering...not recognizing the results of the upcoming elections if their ideological comrade Zelaya isn't returned to power.

Obama is also about to cut off all aid to Honduras.

U.S. State Department staff have recommended that the ouster of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya be declared a "military coup," a U.S. official said on Thursday, a step that could cut off tens of millions of dollars in U.S. funding to the impoverished Central American nation.

The official, who spoke on condition he not be named, said State Department staff had made such a recommendation to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who was expected to make a decision on the matter soon.

Contrast this with his "See no evil, speak no evil" policy on the sham Iranian elections.

It's despicable that our government is behaving this way and that it's getting so little attention.

You should check out Dave in Texas' post on Honduras from the other night if you haven't seen it already. It's filled with snarky goodness.
