One can always tell a lot about a person by which side of the line in the sand he stands when it is drawn.
“Aawwwwck! Restore the dictator in Honduras! Birds of a feather. Castro. Chavez. Ortega. Obama.”

Best summation at Flopping Aces, on why President Barack Obama worked feverishly behind the scenes to prevent Honduran officials from ousting President Manuel Zelaya from office, after he was intent on subverting the government into pushing a referendum to allow an extension on his fixed term in office and toss that country’s constitution out.
…I’d say that many of us understand the dangers posed by such friendships and alliances with the Chavez’s and Castro’s of the world. It’s the leftist patsy occupying the Oval Office that simply doesn’t “get it”, were I to give him the benefit of the doubt of wanting what is best for America as we have known it to be since it’s inception. Perhaps, a more accurate assessment is that Obama *does* get it, and openly lends his support to such leadership and dangerous allies because of his “empathies” that lie strongly with similar governing ideology. Perhaps, with his popularity with citizenry that seem unconcerned with the US’s march towards the far left, he feels this is his personal mandate in “remaking America”.
Is America meddling in foregn affairs?
