MORE OBAMAN CRAZINESS - AT 4:31 P.M. ET:  It is simply remarkable to see the Obama crowd, in the Honduras crisis, siding with Chavez, Ortega and Castro. 

It really is back to the sixties for the Obamans:

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) -- The United States is turning up pressure on the Honduran government installed by a coup -- and the businessmen who support it -- warning that they will face severe sanctions if ousted President Manuel Zelaya is not restored to power.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called interim President Roberto Micheletti to say there would be serious consequences if his government ignores international mediation for Zelaya's return.

Her call on Sunday came as talks mediated by Costa Rican President Oscar Arias stalled due to the refusal of Micheletti's delegates to accept demands for Zelaya's return.

COMMENT:  Nothing like a little bias in that first paragraph.  It wasn't a military coup.  The military only acted on orders from the Honduran Supreme Court.  And businessmen aren't the only ones who support the new government.  This is the journalistic left in full bloom.

Wouldn't it be something if we turned out to be tougher on this new, entirely legitimate government in Honduras, installed by constitutional means, than we are on Iran or North Korea.  But it would fit the apparent instincts of our fearless leader.
