It’s rare when I want to see the U.S. fail abroad but the expenditure of our national clout to demean an ostensible ally that followed the law in removing a Chavista acolyte who sought to undermine their constitution brings Hope and Change ™ to my cold, black heart:

The US voiced disappointment Thursday at the failure of a seven-nation mission to persuade coup leaders in Honduras to accept a settlement and renewed its support for ousted president Manuel Zelaya.“We are disappointed by this inability to move forward,” the State Department said in a statement to AFP.

Umm, no.  We aren’t.  The Communists installed at the reliably liberal State Department under Obonga are terribly disappointed that the Rule of Law has prevailed in Honduras.  The rest of us are thrilled that you are giving this president a black eye.  In fact, you should speak up more against our Meddling President.  He just loves to Meddle!

“The United States supports the peaceful restoration of democratic and constitutional order in Honduras with President Zelaya’s return as president to finish his term,” it said.

The rest of us wish our Supreme Court would exhibit similarly proportioned testes against the unconstitutional power grabs of our own dumbo-eared dictator.  Really guys – when do you step up to the plate?  When he starts wearing a beret and puts a parrot on his shoulder?

President Barack Obama’s administration has firmly condemned the coup, despite Zelaya’s leftist leanings and alliance with Venezuela’s firebrand President Hugo Chavez.

Just remember, what Ahmadinejad did wasn’t a coup.  Rigging the election and gunning down the protesters in the streets wasn’t a coup.  Chavez shutting down all dissenting opinions, prosecuting his opposition and funding FARC terrorists is okay.

Obonga doesn’t have a problem with coups or dictatorships.  He’s joyfully said that he will work with either without any conditions.

He has a problem with democracies and sides against them whenever possible.  If you haven’t learned that yet you would be well-served to recognize that fact in the coming years.

I am truly ashamed of what our country is right now.
