Estrada Proves Obama Wrong on Honduras

Miguel Estrada, a Honduran native who was appointed by President Bush to a judgeship and was summarily blocked by Democrats out of fear of a potential conservative Hispanic justice, writes about the canard that Obama has been pushing that Honduras just underwent a coup.

Something clearly has gone awry with the rule of law in Honduras -- but it is not necessarily what you think. Begin with Zelaya's arrest. The Supreme Court of Honduras, as it turns out, had ordered the military to arrest Zelaya two days earlier. A second order (issued on the same day) authorized the military to enter Zelaya's home to execute the arrest. These orders were issued at the urgent request of the country's attorney general. All the relevant legal documents can be accessed (in Spanish) on the Supreme Court's website.

Seems to me pretty clear-cut that Obama was doing nothing more than supporting his Marxist friends around the world.
