More aid cut off from Honduras

More shortsightedness by the U.S. The U.S. has revoked the visas of Honduran President Roberto Micheletti and 14 supreme court judges as well as suspended more aid. Again, we continue to coddle our enemies and stiff-arm our allies. The U.S. would rather align itself with a thug and Chavista than support a small, beleaguered nation trying to follow its internal rule of constitutional law.

Wake up and smell the coffee U.S., and it's actually pretty good Honduran coffee. I've tried it when I've been in Tegucigalpa. Honduras is doing the right thing even if some of us can't see it. They have essentially said no to the Chavez idiocracy and in doing so prevented the spread of Chavez's cancerous stain to one small country in our Central American back yard. How do we reward them? By ostracizing them and cutting off aid. Nice.
