Two Republican Congressmen have returned from their trip to investigate the supposed coup in Honduras and their estimation of the situation differs, unsurprisingly, from the Administration according to The Hill<\/a>;<\/p>\n

“The majority of folks think Zelaya should come back to the country, but to stand trial,” Rep. Connie Mack (R-Fla.) said.<\/p>\n

Mack told The Hill that he found Hondurans to be in “disbelief” at the Obama administration’s reaction to the ouster of Zelaya.<\/p>\n

“Whether or not [Hondurans] agree on how he was removed all of them agree that he broke the constitution, broke the law,” Mack said. “A large majority believe he should not return to Honduras and to power.”<\/p>\n

Bilbray said the U.S. can’t put itself in a position of supporting a president over a country’s constitution and the rule of law. “That’s a scary place for us to find ourselves, especially considering our history,” he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, it’s not that hard to figure out, actually. The Obama places a higher value on the friendship of Chavez, Ortega, Morales, Correa and Zelaya than he does on the friendship of the Honduran people. I’d like to know the name of the Obama advisor who read the Honduran Constitution and then gave Obama the advice to support the unconditional return of Zelaya to his office. <\/p>\n

While the Honduran Army has vowed that it won’t fire on Honduran people<\/a>, Zelaya is urging Obama to place sanctions on his country. Interim president Micheletti has promised to step down to keep the peace, while Zelaya has threatened “blood in the streets”. So who is thinking of the Honduran people and who is thinking of their own political survival?<\/p>\n
