Honduras from State Department Perspective

The briefing on Honduras with two officials, the names of which were not in the briefing here: http://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2009/july/125564.htm

Now, they insist that the actions in Honduras were a coup, but do not explain why there is in fact no suspension of the aid that a coup requires by the State Department. And then there is this quote:
[C]oncerns or doubts about the wisdom of his actions relating to his proposed non-binding referendum have are independent of the unconstitutional act taken against him.

Excerpt over. Lets turn to an excerpt from the Constitution of Honduras:
No citizen who has already served as head of the Executive Branch can be President or Vice-President. Whoever violates this law or proposes its reform, as well as those that support such violation directly or indirectly, will immediately cease in their functions and will be unable to hold any public office for a period of 10 years.

Excerpt over. Zelaya did not cease in his function as President, and so the Supreme Court acted. Lets go back into reality, I know its difficult to leave the safe zone in denial, to the purpose of a Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is meant to protect and ensure that the laws and actions of the country abide by the Constitution. So when Zelaya did not cease his function, it came to them to order the military to have him removed. Zelaya's proposal to change the Constitution to run for re-election was the reason he was removed from office. The official who said that was lucky his name was not in the article because I'd find his public contact information and request he resign because he certainly isn't doing his job.

Now the news missed this statement by the other official present:
The transfer of leadership was not a military action.

Excerpt over. Excuse me while I loudly proclaim in the peanut gallery: I told you so.

Next statement is a contradiction of our actions:
And again, in terms of how we attempted to address this issue, at the end of the day, this is a Honduran issue and a Honduran problem. And we and the OAS and other partners can work to try to create a context in which solutions are found, but we can’t compose those solutions.

Excerpt over. If we are not composing the solutions, why did we sign onto the OAS demand for the reinstatement of Zelaya? Does that not qualify as a solution to the coup?

The direct contradiction to the previous statement took only a question's time:
Well, again, we and all the countries of the region have called for an unconditional return – in other words, a return of President Zelaya and a restoration of the democratic and constitutional order, which means that President Zelaya is president of Honduras with all the powers and privileges that adhere to the presidency.

Excerpt over. It only needs common sense to see the contradiction.

Our money gives these people paychecks. I'm annoyed immensely.
