Replying to Honduran transfer of power

I wonder why Mr. Obama and his cabinet would support the ousted leftist leader of Honduras when his own parliament voted him out of office after Mr. Zelaya tried to pass a referendum allowing him to stay in office longer than it was allowed by their constitution. This wasn't a military coup, the military was only used to fulfill the wishes of the parliament. I hope Mr. Obama realizes that he is siding with some of the most brutal dictators and radical leftists on Earth including Hugo Chavez and Daniel Ortega.

Perhaps Mr. Obama is supporting Zelaya because there's a chance he won't want to be confined by the constitution in terms of term limits. And perhaps he doesn't want there to be a precedent of countries upholding their constitutions in that respect. They don't call him Barack Delano Obama for nothing.

And beyond all of this what business do we have to comment on the internal affairs of Honduras?

It angers me greatly that this is being called a coup by the news media, that's nothing short of a dead lie. The parliament voted him out, it would be similar to if we impeached our president, which wouldn't be such a bad idea.

Also this quote from a google news article on the matter makes it sound like Mr. Zelaya was the one trying to pull off a coup.

"Zelaya's planned referendum had been ruled illegal by the country's top court and was opposed by the military, but the president said he planned to press ahead with it anyway and ballot boxes had already been distributed."

Thoughts?
