Wow I almost missed it saying "Barack Obama" in there. What a ridiculous story. Why not post this story from a credible news source?

Getting back on topic, congratulations to the Honduran people.

  Congratulations to Honduran people on coup d'etat and restoration of military rule???
  
  Where exactly were the people on this thing?
  
  You DO know this isn't the first military coup in Honduras? Or are you saying that THIS military coup is the will of the people as opposed to all the previous military coups there? If so I'd like to hear why. Is it on the basis of the piece of misinformation posted by the author, which is replete with lies and falsehoods?
  
  Here is an incomplete list of the falsehoods,
  
  1. Barack Obama a dictator.
  
  2. Zelaya is a dictator even though he couldn't even fire the head of Honduras's military.
  
  3. Wanting to hold a non-binding referendum on whether the voters would like to vote on a constitutional amendment voiding presidential term limits later this year is a sign of dictatorial rule even though many democracies have no term limits for their heads of state.
  
  4. When a dictator wants to implement a particular policy they conduct a referendum.
  
  5. Zelaya was taken to Venezuela despite that AP article, which is cited as source states that he was taken to Costa Rica.
  
  6. Military coup d'etat is a representation of people's will, whereas holding a popular referendum is not.
