Honduras

Not that I'm a big advocate for intervention in foreign affairs, I feel there is enough problems facing our country that to meddle in every dispute worldwide would be foolish. That does not mean that I think we should be isolationists, or hide or head in the sand at every event going on in the world. The United States of America, I believe, has the right to intervene in any situation, anywhere in the world, in the interest of the protection of the American way of life. There are enemies out there that wish to destroy America and everything that we stand for and others that are destined to destroy the capitalist society and the free markets. With that in mind, to not look out for the country's best interest would be as foolish. Communist regimes defying United Nations sanctions and testing long range ballistic missiles and developing nuclear weapons. Weapons that could reach Seattle, Washington in less than 45 minutes. Radical Islamic regimes in the middle east developing nuclear weapons, denies the holocaust (claims it was a political myth) ever occurred and has repeatedly said he wants to wipe Israel off the map. Several other Countries in the region are believed to harbor current terrorist (can't call them that) organizations. One country in Northern Africa even had a hero's welcome for a convicted terrorist bomber released in the United Kingdom. South America seems to be full of leftist dictators, we all know about Castro in Cuba and are learning about Chavez in Venezuela and now with Honduras even more about the region.

The situation in Honduras, we cut off aid to the country because the Honduran Supreme Court deemed the power play to eliminate Presidential term limits was unconstitutional. The popularly elected Congress installed a new acting President and through Zeyala out of the country. Like most events in South America, it didn't end there, Zeyala is back and there are people on both sides and for both canidates. I don't know much about the situation or the conditions down there. US politicians on both sides of the aisle have weighed in on both sides as well. My thought is if the Honduran Congress and Supreme Court both want Zeyala out and Cuba, Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia all want Zeyala back in, I side with with keeping him out. Not so much because I support the Honduran government as much as I distrust Cuba and the Communist regime that runs it. I also don't trust Chavez in Venezuela. He is exporting oil to Iran, yes the same radical Islamic regime mentioned above, and is outspoken about his hatred for the United States. Chavez is turning out to be a very left wing leader and has taken control of the media, the oil industry, the steel industry and is even indoctrinating children in the schools. The White House sides with Castro and Chavez and wants the left wing dictator Zeyala back in power in Honduras. Also from the White House, if Israel should attempt to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities, that the United States should confront the incoming attack in Iran's defense!

It really makes me wonder about the direction of the country, when the Leader of the Free World sides with dictators and communists over the democratic government and the decision of the Congress and Supreme Court in that country. With all the manufactured crisis that are popping up, health care crisis (where was the outrage last year), the economic crisis (gov't created) and the environmental crisis (all the tests and data are outdated and misleading). I afraid that all the fat, dumb and happy Americans will follow the state controlled media over the socialist edge. Cap and Trade and Single Payer Health Care are more ways for the government to control our lives. Controlling energy, controlling health care, controlling banks, controlling manufacturing, disarming the military, building a "civilian" military and redistribution of wealth, loss of the Bill of Rights. If you look at some of the left wing radical thoughts on overthrowing true democracy for the installation of a statist regime they are a few different ways, that appear to be happening now in America. Deflect any criticism from the issue with a smear campaign, attack every possible flaw because, like humans, government is imperfect in it's best form. Promote class distinction and racial tensions. Create a generation of entitlement, make the less fortunate feel they were wronged and the government must take care of them. Make the weight of the system collapse upon itself. If you keep taking the producers out of the society and pushing them into the entitlement generation you end up with more taking out than putting in and that in the simplest terms is unsustainable. The collapse is another way to point the blame at the system instead of the real cause. The entitlement programs and the leftists that installed them. Where is the 1st Amendment when a assembly is determined unlawful for not having a permit? I understand the logic behind the permit, but doesn't the permit in itself infringe on the 1st Amendment's right to assemble?

The things that need to be looked at, and I hate to be a conspiracy theorist, is who is directing everything. If everything is leaning so far left and all of our former enemies are now praising us and our former allies are being slighted by us. "Something is rotten is the state of Denmark"
