About Obama siding with Chavez and Castro

and throwing his lot with Zelaya who tried to ignore the Honduras's institutions(court, congress, his own party) for his own personal political gain. The question is why?

With the defiant support of other Central American nations and Venezuela's Hugo Chávez, Zelaya steadfastly maintains that he is the only president of Honduras -- and President Barack Obama agrees. ''We don't want to go back to a dark past,'' Obama said Monday. ``The United States has not always stood as it should with some of these fledgling democracies. But over the last several years, I think both Republicans and Democrats in the United States have recognized that we always want to stand with democracy, even if the results don't always mean that the leaders of those countries are favorable toward the United States.'' He added: ``We believe that the coup was not legal, and that president Zelaya remains the president of Honduras.''

Fine, stand with democracy but overlooking Zelaya role in this complicated event is naive and makes Obama look desperate to prove what a differnt American President he is from the rest. Say a short terse statement not agreeing with the overthrow but at least be fair to both sides instead of taking the side of a Chavez lapdog. As AP on HotAir points out what the hell is the end game? There is little if anything to gain acting like Jimmy Carter.
