1. Our wealthy elites meeting with the Honduran wealthy elites
Our common enemy in America meeting with our common enemy in Honduras.

The lines are as clearly drawn in Honduras as they were during the Spanish Civil War.

3. I expect a laptop to be discovered with incriminating evidence
that Zelaya is pals with Osama bin Laden.

20. They already did that. They "found" I think 40 laptops in Zelaya's presidential offices
and replaced them with laptops from Donald Rumsfeld's "Office of Special Plans-in-Exile," er, hurried them off to "analysts." The "analysts" already found lots and lots and lots of corruption by that communist and his comrades. Lots and lots. To be gradually leaked out over the next ten years.

5. Yep, Connie Mack of Florida (R)


and a couple of others (R) whose names have not been published.

Florida Gov. Crist (R) also supposed to be there.

Hugo LLorens (Cubano-Gusano) received them in addition to Goriletti.

Btw, late last night heard on Telesur news that CNN (Rick Sanchez program) had pirated the Telesur signal yesterday. Why am I not surprised?

8. Ambassador Llorens was appointed by Bush. Why is Obama keeping this RWer?
There are Cuban-Americans that reject the dogmatism of the first wave of exiles that came to our shores after the Batista dictatorship was overthrown, but Llorens shows little evidence that he is any different from the people with Alpha66. Llorens has been involved in US counter-insurgency programs in the Philippines and elsewhere before he was appointed as Ambassador to Honduras by Bush.

14. I had to look them up after seeing your post.
Brian Bilbray, California Congressman. Could he look more overfocused and constipated? My God.

Let's see how many rats will come out in support of Jeb Bush.

21. FLA Congressman (Connie Mack) first to visit Coup Govt in Honduras
Notice how the GOP Talking Points on Honduras are a exact match to those used by pro-coup DUers. What an amazing coincidence!

Mack to Lead Congressional Trip to Honduras This Weekend


WASHINGTON – Congressman Connie Mack (FL-14), the Ranking Republican of the House Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, will travel to Honduras on Saturday and Sunday to meet with key leaders and officials and discuss the ongoing crisis in the country.

Mack said:

“I am looking forward to getting on the ground in Honduras to hear directly from members of the Honduran government about the political situation in the country, as well as the progress of the ongoing talks in Costa Rica.

“It’s important to remember that Manuel Zelaya’s removal was not a military coup. The Honduran Supreme Court, attorney general, Congress and the Honduran people were right to confront Zelaya as he usurped the law and gutted their constitution.

“During this time of upheaval, the people of Honduras deserve to know that the United States and other freedom-loving nations across the globe stand with them and support a peaceful and legal resolution. I look forward to reaching out to them during this trip.”

Mack is the first Member of Congress to travel to Honduras since Zelaya’s removal.
