Obama on wrong side

Thu., July 9, 2009

The Spokesman-Review

It is no surprise that Obama is very upset at the so-called coup in Honduras. It is very clear that the attempted coup was attempted by Zelaya himself.

Just to get this straight, our president doesn’t want to get involved in the voting fraud and subsequent murders in Iran.

Now Honduras exercises its constitutional powers by throwing out a wannabe dictator attempting to throw an election and appoint himself for life and our leader condemns this along with his buddies Hugo Chavez and the Castro brothers? Speaks volumes.

Hopefully this isn’t indicative of our own future. Should what is happening in Honduras ever happen in our country, I would hope that our own Supreme Court would act the same. We need only to look at the other leaders with whom our president aligns himself.
