Lefist tried to circumvent constitution; military throws him out
BHO is deeply concerned
Other leftist leaders voice protest; call for reinstatement of other leftist
EU stands ready to talk (go figure)
Chavez alerts military (does that a lot huh?)
"Leaders from across the Western Hemisphere and beyond called for return to power of Zelaya, who arrested on Sunday morning by soldiers who stormed his residence and forced him into exile. The country now has another president appointed by its Congress, Roberto Micheletti, who insisted that Zelaya was legally removed by the courts and Congress for violating Honduras' constitution and attempting to extend his own rule."

Against my better judgment I went to see Transformers yesterday on a whim. In the, not that great, movie Obama was deeply concerned and wanted to find a diplomatic solution with Megatron...I sh#t you not.

...well kind of a swift stand anyway. :rofl
Dealing with the first Latin American crisis of his presidency, Barack Obama sought a swift, clear response that would not be interpreted as U.S. interventionism in a region that loathes it.
So he condemned a coup in Honduras by turning to the most reliable of friends: democracy.
"We stand on the side of democracy, sovereignty and self-determination," Obama said when asked Monday about the forced exile of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya, a takeover that has drawn international criticism and unnerved a part of the world that has worked to shed itself of strong-arm tactics.

Something strange going on here. Everything legal was done to throw this Dictator out. Why would BO side with him and his co-horts. I hope the American people are paying attention to this as it shows BO's true colors. he was very quick to side with Chavez and Castro. What,s really bad is the people of Hondurus have a Demacratic form of Government and we will stand by and let Chavez and Castro install a Dictator for life on these people. Just ain't right. I can't believe how low the U.S. has sunk. I could'nt hold my head up if i had voted for that P.O.S. Well TT and G man i hope you guys are gettin what you wanted. I hope a dollar in your union pocket is worth throwing our country down the shitter.

the president himself called on all "political and social actors in Honduras to respect democratic norms."
what the fuck does he mean by this?

It's his way of avoiding taking a solid position; he issues a broad and general statement that can be interpretted in multiple ways so that in the end he can spin it to curry favor with whomever ends up in office. That'd be my take on it anyway.
Zelaya was apparently attempting to undermine the constitution so that he could remain in office beyond the established term limits; if so then he was not within the democratic norms. Micheletti apparently acted within the allowances of their constitution when he threw Zelaya out and the Congress supported Micheletti on it; so it would seem Micheletti and Congress acted within the existing democratic norms.

Now this is what I call taking a stand! Only way ousted leader can reclaim the presidency is through a foreign invasion. Course could be just some hard talk banking on the notion that no one will want to invade given the current world climate towards those sort of things.
"Honduras' interim leader warned that the only way his predecessor will return to office is through a foreign invasion — though a potential showdown with the ousted president was delayed due to action Wednesday by the Organization of American States.
A defiant Roberto Micheletti said in an interview with The Associated Press late Tuesday that "no one can make me resign," defying the United Nations, the OAS, the Obama administration and other leaders that have condemned the military coup that overthrew President Manuel Zelaya."

How Can Obama Ask Them To Return Power To A Man Who Was Violating The Law? How Is It That In The World Now These Leader's Think They Can Do What They Want?
Does No One Remeber Hitler Came To Power Legally? He Strong Armed People But Became The Dictator Legally
I ordered a coup but I ordered extra bloodshed and I don't see any of that with this one. :)

So Zelaya actually had his referendum ballots printed in Venezuela! Wonder why he would do that?...maybe cause he knew what he was attempting to do was unconstitutional and was attempting to circumvent the established laws.
"The president of Honduras, Jose Manuel Zelaya, a protege of Hugo Chavez, decided that he wanted to be able to be president for more than his one term that ends this coming January -- perhaps for life. However, because the histories of Honduras and Latin America are replete with authoritarians and dictators, Honduras's constitution absolutely forbids anyone from governing that country for more than one term.
So, Zelaya decided to follow Chavez's example and find a way to change his country's constitution. He decided to do this on his own through a referendum, without the congressional authorization demanded by Honduras's constitution. He even had the ballots printed in Venezuela."

Roberto Micheletti, the acting President of Honduras after the Supreme Court and Congress kicked out former President Manuel Zelaya, wrote up an article explaining how and why the coup took place. Points out several times that the coup was not a military led action but a civilian government, majority vote, constitutionally legal action that the media and other pro-left governments are ignoring.
"In recent days, the rhetoric from allies of former President Manuel Zelaya has also dominated media reporting in the U.S. The worst distortion is the repetition of the false statement that Mr. Zelaya was removed from office by the military and for being a “reformer.” The truth is that he was removed by a democratically elected civilian government because the independent judicial and legislative branches of our government found that he had violated our laws and constitution."

Another report on the matter...
"Disheartened supporters of deposed Honduran President Manuel Zelaya trickled home from the Nicaraguan border on Sunday, weakening protests backing his bid to return to power after a coup last month.
Honduran troops manning checkpoints have prevented several thousand demonstrators from staging a show of support at the border for the leftist leader, now exiled in Nicaragua.
Six miles from the border, 100 weary protesters milled around the coffee town of El Paraiso, a far cry from the massive outpouring of public backing Zelaya had called for."
