Default A fading Obama screw-up

The Hondouran government removed its President according to the Honduran
Constitution when the Honduran President tried to hold an extra

the Honduran Supreme Court was judge and the Honduran military was the

I won't deny Zelaya overstepped his bounds, but I'll also guarantee his
removal was extra-constitutional. Over the years, Honduras has had far
too many coups, to encase them in their Constitution.




Castro, Chavez and Obama didn't like what happened because they saw it
as a puny little Central American country enforcing Constitutional law
thereby preventing the chief of state from staying in office beyond his
constitutional limited term in office setting a bad precedent, according
to them.
