Hondurans celebrate new government

South East Asia News.Net
Wednesday 1st July, 2009

Thousands of Hondurans have marched through the capital of Tegucigalpa as a show of support for the new government that replaced President Manuel Zelaya earlier this week.

Mr Zelaya has been accused by the interim president, Roberto Micheletti, of a series of offences from when he was in power.

Roberto Micheletti, who is also the head of the nation's armed forces, spoke at the rally and called on supporters to support the nation's armed forces.

Earlier, the attorney general under the new government released details about a criminal investigation into the ousted leader, who he said is accused of 18 offences, including treason and abuse of power.

He also said Mr Zelaya had been involved in trafficking drugs from South America through the country and would be arrested on the spot if he were to return.

Mr Zelaya meanwhile has spoken at the United Nations in New York, pledging to return to Honduras to reclaim the presidency.

Drugs, deathsquads, coups, lying donkey governments, paid assassines, arming nation against nation for 'profits', all the while with words of 'freedom and democracy' for the Poor!

Legacy or stench??

More nonsense from girlyjihad.

The Honduran Army followed the Honduran Constitution. The Congress and Supreme Court followed the Honduran Constitution. The President did NOT. He violated the Honduran Constitution, therefore he was removed in accordance with the Honduran Constitution.

All correctly legal and proper under the Honduran Constitution which is dated 11 January 1982 and effective on 20 January 1982.

Try again with your pathic girly whine, girlyjihad.

That is NOT the issue, girlyjihad, and you know it.

You started the whine about the removal of the President by the military, made unwarranted claims, and I showed you were wrong.

Everything was done according to the Honduran Constitution, according to Honduran law. It matters not a whit when the Constitution was written as long as it was before the action, which it was.

I proved you wrong, proved you lie, and you still whine like a girlyjihad.

Try again, mental midget.

Can you explain why the very far leftist government of Mexico has some of the most impoverished people in this hemisphere and yet per capita has the most Millionaires and Billionaires?
Mexico is a socialist state of the most henious kind!
There is no middle class just a filthy poor and a filthy rich class.
America is now becoming Mexico North with the same problems and outlook.
Like it or not controlled Free market economies work far better then the economy squashing thieving Socialist government we have now.
Reported unemployment is now topping 10% that excludes under employed and off the unemployment insurance.
All the TARP and omnibus money has been stolen and squandered none of it was used to shore up economies and now all the compnaies that took the money are giving out record bonuses.
Or is this more of Ronald Wilson Reagans fault?
You obviously don’t have a clue.

Quote:
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children what it was once like in the United States when men were free.



Would appear the extinction Old Ronny was talking about is here.

Galljdaj is an idiot. He is not an expert of nothing but of course he is free to express himself. He is always negative and most likely he is a communist, the old farth. He claimed he believed in democracy but he do not.

Too bad your not expert enough...

... , your non issue is of course a copout, or incompetence as an expert. You would have gotten the relevency had you answered the questions for us poor non experts.

However, we can test your expertise on your terms also;

Who wrote the Constitution you so proudly defend? Where were the first five drafts written(city, state and country)? Then we can get around to the effects and rule of the Constitution.

Do you realise that you always must appear to be right even when everyone can see you are very clearly wrong.
Just admit it, you don’t know it all and thats great life would be boring if you already had all the answers.
The question you posed is very quickly found in a simple internet search answering the question proves nothing on knowledge or a lack of knowledge.
Bill clearly posted a well thought out post and your circular question just makes you look like a complete ass.

Again, you avoid the issue. You still try to create straw men to avoid the fact that you have been proven to be wrong.

Your proven lack of intellect clearly shows once again.

Why will the US let these people suffer?

The hypocrisy of the American foreign relations response to the situation in Honduras is astounding!
Today, as we Americans celebrate 233 years as an independent nation, we must remember that we were born in revolution, throwing off the chains of oppression, and creating laws which guaranteed the rights of the individual.
It is not a secret, the elephant is in the room, all Hondurans know that Zelaya, aligned with Chavez, intended to take the country left, toward socialism.
The Honduran military, acting on the advice, with support, and on orders from the legitimate, Supreme Court of their country, moved to defend the constitution of their country, and to preserve their democracy.
The populace seem surprisingly calm that tomorrow may bring civil war but, this does not seem to weaken their resolve!

The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States of America:

In Congress, July 4, 1776 the unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. — That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
