More on Honduras

President Obama again today reiterated his belief that the ouster of Honduran President Zelaya was illegal.

Following Obama's logic, apparently once you've been elected, there's no possible legal way to be removed from office prior to the end of your term.

President Nixon is probably kicking himself as he rolls in his grave.

Obama also apparently under the impression that the military is still in charge in that country, ignoring the fact that the nation is under civilian control, and has been since almost immediately after Zelaya was ousted. This isn't a case of a military junta taking over the government and installing a general as the leader. They removed Zelaya at the behest of the supreme court and with the nearly unanimous approval of the legislature.

When you've got Hugo Chavez and the Castro brothers on your side, you're on the wrong side.
