Congratulations to the Little Country That Could,” by Rick Richman – Commentary Magazine
Throughout the Honduran “crisis” — the removal of the Honduran president by order of a unanimous Honduran Supreme Court, supported by the virtually unanimous approval of the Honduran Congress — many noted there was an easy remedy for the alleged “coup”: hold the already scheduled election between the already selected candidates and install an undeniably democratic government. ** Instead, President Obama labeled what had happened a “military coup,” cut off aid to one of the poorest states in the hemisphere, revoked the visas of the entire Honduran Supreme Court, and resisted for months the obvious solution to the “crisis.” ** On Friday, the State Department finally endorsed the election…more than 61.5 percent of registered Hondurans went to the polls, a historic record turnout
It’s worth noting that the vote of the people also represents a black eye to Marxist leaders who spoke out in support of the ousted president in a bid to spread their brand of tyranny.
