Honduras has recently been in the news due to the ouster of its President, Mel Zelaya. It seems that Zelaya was attempting to force a new policy on the people in an unconstitutional manner. He wanted to be President for life, like his associate Hugo Chavez. The people rejected his strong arm efforts. The military, having sworn loyalty to the Constitution, removed him from office since what he was doing was in violation of that Constitution. The military did what it was supposed to in a free nation governed by law. The military and new President Roberto Micheletti report that their action is supported by 80-90% of the people as well.

Is it any surprise that Cuba, Chavez, the UN and Hillary Clinton are crying “foul!”. It was not a coup, but rather an ouster of a politician who was not playing by the rules. The proper legal steps were taken to remove him from power. No wonder the Hussein regime is upset. Much like the various kingdoms were threatened by the American Revolution and what it meant, many despots around the world are concerned with events in Honduras. How dare the people set up a government “of the people, by the people and for the people”.  It is ironic how with leftist double-speak, Chavez and other leftist leaders talk about their support for “democratic” government in Honduras, but do not like the idea of the military and the people ousting someone who is not one of theirs. They want “democracy” , NOT a nation where the people are ruled by law or select their leaders. The socialist refer to the situation as a “coup”, whereas others refer to it as an “ouster”. Is it any wonder that the democratic underground trouble makers are already planning protests in front of the Honduran embassy to reinstate the despot Zalaya.

The Honduran ouster raises other questions as well. Where else does one find a political leader cramming policy in an unconstitutional manner down the peoples throats? Where else does one find a political leader who is in fear of his position due to his bypassing Constitutional requirements? Hmmmm…

It is shameful that the people and military of Honduras respect the law more than the United States government does. Even Zalaya praised Obama on his election, but within weeks warned the empire not to interfere in Honduran matters. Zalaya was addressing the need for non-intervention as late as the first part of June. Ironic how now he wants the Hussein administration to “do something”. If the United States had the military that Honduras has, the usurper would be out of office by now.

Liberty for Texas and the South.

PS. Things just keep gittin’ better and better. In the latest, the Honduran government claims that Zelaya has been a mover and shaker in smuggling cocaine into the united States . Hmmm.. How does the administration deal with this? Cracking down on guns, claiming they are going across the border to Mexico and then pressuring Honduras to take the drug trafficking leader back. Although the Hussein regime is avoiding high level meetings with the deposed leader, they are exerting pressure. Here is there chance to STOP cocaine trafficking, and instead, they want to harrass the public with harsh laws and complain about a symptom of the problem while supporting the high level drug lord. It does not matter that thousands are marching in support of the new leadership, the empire wants the old corrupt leader respected and empowered.
