There was no coup. This was a case of legal removal from office by the supreme court of that land. The remedy for Zelaya's infraction was laid out in the constitution. Why does The Nation allow such propaganda ? When did this magazine stop reporting true facts? If Zelaya was not a leftist, this magazine would have not used the term "coup."

Zelaya is nothing but a dictator whose "proposed" reforms were part of a Chavist march toward totalitarianism.

Chavism, of course, is nothing but Mein Kampf Lite, purporting to democratize a people while systematically gutting all vestiges of democracy. I challenge you to explain to me how any of Zelaya's proposed "reforms" would have done anything to foster democracy.

Why don't you just come right out and say that you hate democracy, that democracy is inherently anathema to what you believe and that your ultimate goal is to impose one-party totalitarianism on all of us, everywhere?

And, please, don't tell me Zelaya was "elected" and that gave him the right to violate the Honduran constitution. Hitler was elected once, too. That means nothing.

Can your readers really be that gullible?

Zelaya's life is certainly at risk if he returns to Honduras, but he will be difficult to replace in the next election. We need to support the OAS and sanctions against Honduras. We also need to get our troops out of Honduras and Columbia.
