Wonder if Zelaya also imported professional demonstrators from Venezuela, along with the illegal ballots?
But looking at the pics, the ol’ saying comes to mind… “which one would your rather have a beer with?” LOL
@MataHarley: I wouldn’t be too surprised if there weren’t some ACORN organizers in that pro-Zelaya crowd.
OUCH! The Martin Luther King signs should leave a sting for President “Zero.”
Assuming of course that he “can connect” with the works of MLK. Or maybe his socialist ways will override that.
LOL @ Mike’s America.
I wouldn’t be surprised if BHO flew them there.
So, how is this playing with Hispanic Americans? Will O’Bungler be wrongly perceived as a hero for interfering with a Latin American country to “restore democracy,” or will he rightly be seen as an enemy of freedom? That could affect the next election, considerably. I just hope the Latino Americans aren’t Chavez/Che supporting fools. If they aren’t against those monsters, but are more like the Arabs who run away from their slums to find freedom here, only to demand the type of governance that leads to repression, then we’re all screwed.
So, have we come to high crimes and misdemeanors yet? I’ll answer my own question…not with this congress.
Don’t forget there are Honduran immigrants here in the States. They know the truth and they know the U.S. media is not reporting it. I’m sure they will be happy to enlighten the other members of the U.S. Hispanic/Latino community. It will be interesting to follow the Hispanic vote during the mid-term elections now that BO is cozying up to dictators like Castro, Chavez and Morales while ignoring allies like Honduras and Columbia.
Although I’ve been in the United States to celebrate Independence Day with my family, I live in Central America (Costa Rica) and I can state that the other news outlets are echoing the MSM. None of the individual administrations are considering the supposed coup is actually a legal procedure provided for in the Honduran Constitution. There is a very good English on line news site that states the positions of the government fairly well at http://hondurasnews.com/ and a specific article http://hondurasnews.com/2009/07/02/what-happened-according-to-the-constitution/ that I believe has already been linked to here. There is also interesting news concerning Zelaya’s funds and his and the fact that they recovered thousands of dollars in garbage bags and drawers in his house after he was deported athttp://hondurasnews.com/2009/07/04/government-removes-zelayas-perks/
A note of interest is that most of the expatriates living in Central America are liberal so to find a news site that doesn’t promote the liberal agenda is extremely rare.
Expect the normal amount of trolls in the comments!

Mata Note: This is a different Larry W than our usual Larry Weisenthal, in case you didn’t pick that up
@Larry W: Thanks for that perspective from someone who actually LIVES in the region. It sure beats the opinions we get from the arm chair generals living in the U.S. who only know what to think after it is explained to them on CNN or MSNBC.
