In the early hours of the morning on June 28 this year, soldiers of the Honduran Army, bearing an order from the Honduran Supreme Court, arrested and then exiled Honduran President Zelaya.
The order from the Supreme Court, with the approval of the duly elected Congress of Honduras, came after Zelaya had disobeyed a direct order from the Court and was proceeding with a referendum that had been found to be unconstitutional.
A member of Zelaya's own party was appointed by Congress and sworn in as temporary President until an election could be held on November 29.
The hue and cry from the Marxist/Communist/Socialist dictators from south of our border was instant and loud.
The esteemed Hugo Chavez vowed to reverse the situation. The socialist government of Ecuador announced they would not recognize the new government.
The Castros of Cuba were outraged and demanded sanctions.
The old Sandinista from Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, joined the other extreme leftists.
And then came Barack Obama. He stepped into it with both feet.
Eventually the Organization of American states demanded that Zelaya be restored, and called for sanctions.
The United States immediately suspended military aid, and has since revoked the visas of four diplomats representing the new government.
So let us get this straight.
We have a guy in Honduras, Zelaya, who is trying to establish a dictatorship, a la Chavez in Venezuela, who is legally removed for having violated the Constitution of Honduras, and the President of the United States is helping him, and trying to get him restored to power.
Somehow, that just seems un-American for some reason. There are thousands of reasons we might have to avoid having another Chavez, or Castro, or Ortega in Central America, but I cannot think of a single, solitary reason why the interests of the United States could be served by having another Marxist/Communist/Socialist dictator down there.
So why would Obama take that position? Could it be that he is birds of a feather with Castro, Chavez, Ortega and the others?
My Mom always told me that birds of a feather flock together.
Perhaps his associations with Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dorhn, Rev. Wright and the other radicals that hate the United States were not so benign after all.

Resuming, once again
It seems like every time I post here it has been a long time since the last one. When I started this, I had no intention of doing it daily. I just didn't want to be tied down to it. I still don't.
From the beginning, I have been operating under the strictures of the judicial code of ethics which limits us in commenting upon political candidates. As a result. most of my posts about politics were restrained, to say the least.
This year there are no candidates, so I can be less restrained, and that is a huge relief. There will be a lot to post about.
Last year I pointed out the strange relationships that now President Obama had with some really unsavory characters. The first three that come to mind are Reverend Wright, whose church Obama attended for around 20 years; Saul Alinsky, a radical community organizer whom Obama did not know, but whose philosophy and methods Obama faithfully follows; and the terrorist, Bill Ayers, who should still be in prison, but instead holds a prestigious job at a university in Chicago.
What do these three have in common? They are all radicals wanting to greatly change America. But is it the change we want?
Alinsky worked closely with Communists in much of his organizing. He says he was not one, but he certainly empowered them within the labor movements of the 1920s and 1930s.
Reverend Wright, of course, follows the Black Liberation Theology introduced by James Cone. It, in turn, is based upon the Liberation Theology that originated in Central America which clearly had Marxist roots. He and his followers clearly hate our America.
Ayers? Well, Bill Ayers was a terrorist. People died as a result of his efforts. He has no regrets.
Strange bedfellows? Of course. And the list doesn't include his pals in the Chicago and Illinois political machines, some (or many?) of whom are headed to prison.
Are you now still wondering who Obama is? If so, just look at what he has tried to do just since the inauguration.
He is exactly who he said he was if you had listened and heard what he really was saying. He is a Marxist/Socialist redistributionist who will destroy our free economy in search of equality of outcomes. Just like Marx preached.
The gloves are off.
