AS I understand it, Zelaya was trying to set himself up as President for life. It was a bloodless coup. Their problem, their solution. Obama needs to stay out of this one. Too many people already fear that he plans to destroy our Constitution and never leave office.
Honduras' Supreme Court judges took action just in time to save their sovereignty from a would be dictator. The Commanders of the military in Honduras should be commended for their swift action and unceasing determination to keep their country out of the hands of a communistic dictator. Shame on Obama and all who cut aide to this democracy! We have stumbled and fallen face first in the mud of socialism brought by this "impostor president" Obama.
Zelaya is a Marxist and was in the process of setting himself up like Chaves, no term limit and control of the media. Pretty much what Obama has in mind of us. Obama supports Zelaya and thinks bad leaders shouldn't be deposed in a coup. I can see why he might be nervous about that. I support Micheletti even though I think he is in the same political party as Zelaya.
I'm stunned at the number of people who voted that they didn't know who either of these men is.
IT IS ALLEGED THAT ZELAYA IGNORED THE COUNTRY'S CONSTITUTION --- IF THAT IS THE ACCURATE, THEN HE WAS RIGHTFULLY DEPOSED. === We can't trust Obama's position on this, that's for sure!
I commend the Honduran people for following their constitution. This is a true Democracy in Honduras. I am so happy that Fox News is covering this story. I plead with Fox to continue to report the truth because CNN certainly has twisted the alleged "coup" story. I am so proud that the Honduran people choose Democracy over Chavez oil and American $$$$$. Viva Honduras!!!
No more Chavez on Honduras Tankyou Fox Despierta Obama is not to late
Fox news should strongly oppose the Obama administation on this one. He should stay out and let the little country that USA has been friends with for decades decide.....Wasnt that his campaign promise? Let the nations decide for themselves? Didnt he critisize Bush for the entire campaign,because of this???.......OBAMA YOU LIE!
It is not too late for our President to invoke the Monroe Doctrine (if you are not familiar, look it up in your encyclopedia). If JFK had invoked it against Castro, we would not now have socialists and communists taking over South America. But Obama will not because that would deny what he is in favor of. It is disgusting that the USA is opposing freedom and democracy in Honduras.

Now if Zelaya could just be a man about it and bow out, perhaps that would create the opening the US needs to support the interim government without losing face. Then we could all move on. Honduras is doing the right thing by refusing to let Zelaya return even though it is killing the country's economy. A high price to pay for democracy. I am so proud of Honduras and deeply dismayed by the Obama administration. It makes me wonder what the USA and Zelaya had brewing on the back burner together.
Hi Greta, I have enjoyed watching you the past few years on Fox. But last spring during the pre-convention hype, you changed from reporting on crimes and following up on human interest stories to get involved with political news. Please leave the economy and politics to Beck, Hannity, and O'Reilly, and again do what you do best; have Mark Furman, your legal panel, etc, keep us up to speed with news other than Washington DC.

I am a retired nurse from Boston, living in Central America for many many years. I have seen the rise of several dictators, all initially put there by the voters who fell for endless promises, by voters who never questioned. Zelaya is just one more corrupt Chavez wanna-be, and the country of Hondruas should be congratulated for ousting him. I was shocked that Hillary and Obama are vehemently supporting Zelaya. The only ones who could support Zelaya are those who maybe want to do the same thing. Watch out! Could the USA become so socialist that such a coup would become possible. Just ask the people of Venezuela--they thought it could not happen to them either. I have seen much in my years here.
