Zelaya: "I am not going to Washington, if Clinton and Obama Want to See Me, Let Them Travel
to the Honduras-Nicaragua border, I have no time for them". This was just reported on Univision News and Central America TV. Furthermore, Zelaya has criticized Secretary Hillary Clinton as being "uninformed" about the events that led to his ouster from the Honduran Presidency.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defying U.S. criticism, ousted President Manuel Zelaya returned for a second day to Honduras' land border to try to put pressure on the coup leaders who threw him out of the country last month.

In a move that risked alienating his most powerful ally in his bid to return to power, Zelaya also said U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is not adequately informed about Honduras' "repressive regime".

Clinton criticized Zelaya as "reckless" when he came to this town on the Honduran border with Nicaragua on Friday and took a few steps on Honduran soil as police and soldiers with orders to arrest him stood just yards away .

1. Oh, is that Honduran thing still going on? And are the Iranians still twittering?
What's the deal?

3. I am ashamed of the naughty boy speech and disapproving voice and delivery of her message.
Secrtary Clinton....

The OAS, EU, many, many organizations stand by Zelaya.

He was honestly elected.

You appear to be delaying for the purpose of regime change.

Once again, it looks like the United States is going have their way with the little people of Honduras BEACUSE OF U.S. CORPORATIONS and for U.S. Military purposes.

This is the impression - these are the signals being sent.

I assume President Obama has approved of your moves to protect Mr. Michelleti?

Is this an organized DLC move to work side by side with corporate facilitating Republicans?

IS CIA leading the way on behalf of the corporations?

When are we going to make a break with our past?

With all due anger at your anger and delay.

4. He has pals like Chavez on his side.
Obviously does not need Clinton or Obama. :sarcasm: Well, watch for his support to wane now among those who are supporting him in the US. Yours will stay permanent, I am sure of that.

5. I'm not sure how to take your remarks. I'm not sure where the sarcasm
note fits.

I support all the leaders in this hemisphere who want to and are trying to break the grip that the US France UK World Bank IMF plus corporations CIA State Depts citizens like Kissinger, Negroponte, North, Colby etc etc,had had on them. Plus our military who helped disapear thousands of citizens of various countries. All because our corporations and intrnational corporataions wanted the earth resources and believed they were entitled to them after the payout to the willing Presidents.

I am NOT pro-Chavez as much as I am pro-Venezuelans, the little people. He has done more for them than decades and centuries of sell out Presidents who are paid handsomely when they go into retirement on the Costa del Sol or Fisher Island or Capri or even Coral Gables and Palm Beach where they help with other coups.

Chavez takes too many risks with his mouth, but he came back from a highly organized, but unsustainable coup against him by us.

I will never forget what this country and France did to Aristede and the people who supported him and who were massacred after they whooshed him away. The government that replaced him were known, vicous criminals. There, as in Honduras, the World Bank and our aid group of executives had moved in to place before the lifting of Aristeded by the back of his collar.

Tell me that we haven't bought the Presidents and Military Dictators.
Tell me that our government paved the way for corporations to take.
Tell me that we didn't massacre the people there. What about dropping them in the oceans from our aircraft.
Tell me that they haven't hosted terrorists who participated with the CIA.

Sometimes we can't design the ideal leaders.

And please, tell me why you don't like Chavez.
