The Obama administration wants a leftist leader with no respect for his country's constitution to be saved from the rule of law. Gee I wonder why. Honduran President Mel Zelaya's efforts to move his country away from its constitutional government and toward a fascist state with Zelaya as chief fascist were blocked when the Honduran Supreme Court, Attorney General and military all did their constitutional duty.

(source) Stage a fraudulent election, ban any semblance of a free press, violently quash a political protest by beating, imprisoning and murdering your own people and the Obama administration will invite you to tea.
