Democrats usually like Marxist dictators, and especially those in Latin America. The Honduras army just removed the unpopular Marxist President of Honduras when he tried to get himself elected for another term even though that is illegal under Honduras law. Naturally this upsets Obama, and he wasted no time in calling for "the rule of law." Here is a comment on the situation from "Flopping Aces." Maybe Obama is worried about the bad precedent this sets before he tries for the third term he thinks he is entitled to (on the way to President for Life). I suspect Obama is trying to figure out how to blame Bush (and maybe Ollie North) for the coup.
