Yes, Zelaya tried to extend his term as President in violation of the Honduran constitution. But, you have to remember Obama's point of view on Constitutions: They are LIVING DOCUMENTS meant to be REINTERPRETED in view of changed situations, and (sarcasm) this was OBVIOUSLY a changed situation.<br /><br />It's a complete ignorance of history or definition of the term "Constitution" on Obama's part, but what can we expect from a "Constitutional Law Lecturer" and not a professor.<br /><br />P.S.- I'm eagerly awaiting the upcoming Presidential race, for that key moment when the Republican candidate says to President Obama:<br /><br />"Well, you never wrote any articles as a 'Harvard Law Review Editor,' you were never a professor as Chicago Law, you were merely a lecturer, and you got that only because of your political connections. What gives you any more authority to tell us how the Constitution should be interpreted than anybody else with a Juris Doctor Degree?" <br /><br />It will be CLASSIC.Chuck Skinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00614837739100826719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-19238966762013564742011-05-30T22:11:51.195-04:002011-05-30T22:11:51.195-04:00I'm sure the White House is going to love this...I'm sure the White House is going to love this article today in The Independent:<br /><br />http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/fisk/who-cares-in-the-middle-east-what-obama-says-2290761.html<br /><br />One-man global catastrophe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-23681353565454877052011-05-30T18:14:26.283-04:002011-05-30T18:14:26.283-04:00This seems to have drawn little attention and it s...This seems to have drawn little attention and it should draw a great deal. An entirely constitutional procedure deals with someone who overtly wanted to run Honduras on a Chavez-like basis--and the president of the United States presses Honduras to let him stay in office and then let him back in.<br /><br />If he's not genuinely sympathetic to left-wing thugs and dictators, there should be another explanation. Any ideas?chiefsnarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09800371343956832451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-21232248902128946442011-05-30T17:39:09.542-04:002011-05-30T17:39:09.542-04:00A truly disgusting development and another Obama d...A truly disgusting development and another Obama dagger in the heart of constitutional democratic allies. If Obama is not a commie symp, you certainly could fool alot of people given his undermining of our allies and the support of our enemies.showbiz111https://www.blogger.com/profile/09244712411680124158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-14647579215577405842011-05-30T17:28:54.728-04:002011-05-30T17:28:54.728-04:00Is there no end to the dishonor we share by the cr...Is there no end to the dishonor we share by the craven actions of our President?Milwaukeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14830345164697669429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-47881002008662450332011-05-30T17:27:50.147-04:002011-05-30T17:27:50.147-04:00As an Argentine immigrant, it has frustrated me to...As an Argentine immigrant, it has frustrated me to see this administration put no pressure on quasi-totalitarian leftist regimes in Latin America. Instead, it is appeasing to incredibly foolish anti-Western sentiments in places like my home country. Long gone are the days when we pushed free trade and democracy. It seems like this administration's policy toward Latin America is, inexplicably, to assure them that they are, rather than part of the Western world, at odds with Western interests.Esteban Hernandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701297474935586931noreply@blogger.com
