Honduran lawmakers say 'no' to restoring Zelaya
2009-12-03
Get used to the cot in the Brazilian embassy scumbag.
Honduras' Congress ended hopes of reversing a constitutionally mandated sanction coup that has isolated one of the poorest countries in the Americas, voting against reinstating ousted President Manuel Zelaya despite intense international pressure to do so.

The vote Wednesday was part of a U.S.-brokered deal to end Honduras' crisis that left it up to Congress to decide if Zelaya should be restored to office for the final two months of his term -- and lawmakers voted against the idea by a resounding 111-14 margin.
With those numbers, it could been a vote against the Global Warming scam.
Zelaya, who listened to the proceedings from his refuge in the Brazilian Embassy, said even before the vote that he wouldn't return for a token two months if asked. He said he should have been reinstated before Sunday's presidential election and urged governments not to restore ties with the incoming administration of Porfirio Lobo.

Honduran Parliament to Obama: Pound sand

^5 to the Congress of Honduras for responding to our president's bullying by demonstrating integrity and leadership (both principles seem to be alien to Obama's character). From Honduras to Iran, the people of the world are slowly waking up to the fact that the US now has a president who is either indifferent or hostile to democracy and the rule of law.
