#2 Uh, dude? Did you just call for murder???

Here's a free English lesson: to, too, and two are different words, even though they sound the same! Here's a free quiz to help your uneducated ass to sort it out. Seriously, click through and take it until you understand. I know barely literate Chinese people who have a better grasp of our language than you do.

#3 Um...aside from the nonsensical comments, the article exposes a reality check on the part of State (and possibly the administration), given that they supported the deposed President in the wake of the coup, rather than supporting the constitutional action of their governement.

Hillary finally bought a clue ...

Subtle, Steve, but apparently not clear enough for some.

#4 Hillary finally bought a clue ...

Nah, it's just reopolitik. The administraion failed to score brownie points with the Latin American Left by backing Zeyala. They've damaged relations with previously friendly countries like Colombia. The current Honduran government is isn't going away. Might as well try to salvage some sort of relationship.

#5 The current Honduran government is isn't going away.

Nor should it, it was democratically elected and has the support of the people.

#6 So basically they found out leftists are assholes and if you have to work with someone, it might as well be someone who will work with you.

I could have told them that.

So could their psychoanalyst.

#9 Everything achieved by Ronald Reagan and Elliot Abrams has been squandered by the last 3 US administrations.

#10 Nor should it, it was democratically elected and has the support of the people.

And it took months for the administration to either realize that little fact, or realize that the socialistas weren't going to go for a group-hug with the President.

Considering events like Brazil's antics with regards to Iran, methinks it's likely the latter.
