Honduran President Manuel Zelaya tried to play the Chavez gambit, even though the Honduran Supreme Court had already unequivocally declared the Referendum (for the President to be able to run indefinitely!) as unconstitutional. The Honduran National Congress, where the majority of its members belong to the ousted president’s own party, voted to remove him in a procedure fully in accordance with the Honduran Constitution. The Honduran Army by detaining and exiling Zelaya was only following the directive of its Congress.

Venezuela’s malodorous piece of Devil’s excreta, Hugo Chavez, and Cuba’s Castro felt this action was akin to a coup and immediately protested their ally’s removal from office. Such reaction from those two was expected, what is surprising is how fast Obama reacted and who he chose to align himself with…

The Honduran Congress, in accordance with its constitutionally given powers, chose Roberto Micheletti Bain (from Zelaya’s own Liberal Party!) as the country’s Acting President.

“The decision was adopted by unanimity in the Congress. That means all of the political parties. It has been endorsed by sectors that represent a wide array of Hondurans — the Episcopal Church, the Catholic Church. And well, of course, the armed forces,” he said.

The alacrity and the tone with which Obama reacted in this case contrast greatly with the lame tone and reluctant but mild pronouncements he’s made on Iran’s situation.

The horrible events in Iran, the bloody repression of peaceful protests will only strengthen the grip of the hardliners because of the absence of strong condemnation by the West and especially by our own Obama. It is not truly known who won the Iranian elections but the speed with which Ahmedinejad was declared the winner looks very suspicious, at best. Moussavi is not as acerbic as the putrid little maggot. At the same time he sounds more concerned with the plight of the average Iranian as opposed to Ahmadinejad’s foreign adventures in Lebanon, Iraq and Gaza.

As Iran’s last Prime Minister from October 31, 1981 until the post was abolished on August 3, 1989 he led a government that showed little tolerance for dissent. For 20 years he stayed out of politics, refusing to run for President in 1997. Although he was the leading reformist candidate he declined again to run for the presidency in 2005. In 2009, taking advantage of the huge discontent with Ahmadinejad’s foreign adventures, idiotic pronouncements and collapsing economy – in spite of Iran’s oil riches – Moussavi decided to run stating:

that his main goals were: to institutionalize social justice, equality and fairness, freedom of expression, to root out corruption and to speed up Iran’s stagnant process of privatization and thus move Iran away from what he calls “an alms-based economy”. Moussavi criticized the current conservative President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for his alleged economic mismanagement, asking, when Iran “was making profits from the high prices of oil, did he (Ahmadinejad) envisage a situation when the prices would fall?”

What was his electoral platform?

Goals for presidential term

Mousaavi has on numerous occasions indicated his wish to change the constitution in order to remove the existing ban on the private ownership of television stations (currently all Iranian television stations are state-owned), as well as transfer the control of the law-enforcement forces to the President (so that they represent the people, since the people directly elect the President through popular vote) from the Supreme Leader. He has said that “the issue of non-compliance with the Iranian rules and regulations is the biggest problem that the country is currently faced with” and that he wishes to put in place ways to enforce the laws further, and that it is also important to bring an end to keeping people in the dark about government matters.

Outcome of Election

“Previously, he was revolutionary, because everyone inside the system was a revolutionary. But now he’s a reformer. Now he knows Gandhi – before he knew only Che Guevara. If we gain power through aggression we would have to keep it through aggression. That is why we’re having a green revolution, defined by peace and democracy.”
— Mohsen Makhmalbaf, Mousavi’s spokesman, June 19 2009

The election was held on June 12, 2009. The official results show Ahmadinejad winning by a landslide, though Mousavi and many others refuse to believe it, suggesting that the Interior Minister, Sadegh Mahsouli, an ally of Ahmadinejad, interfered with the election and distorted the votes to keep Ahmadinejad in power.

In spite of all the video evidence of the Ayatollahs’ brutal crackdown on the protesters, in spite of mounting evidence that some of the forces engaged in the crackdown belonged to Lebanon’s Hizbullah and Gaza’s Hamas, not only did US President Obama take his time before protesting but his words against the Ayatollahs showed less concern for the Iranians than his defense of Zelaya. Yet, in spite, of the blood on the paws of Ahmedinejad and his attack dogs, in spite of the heartfelt pleas for a strong statement against the Iranian regime… Obama could not bring himself to utter words of strong warnings against the Ayatollahs… it just wasn’t important enough!

Of course, if we look at what the President is doing on the home front, there is a lot to be desired as well. As of Friday past, Nancy Pelosi’s website still declared that a minimum of 24 hours would must pass before any piece of legislation could be voted on by Congress so that Representatives would have time to read it. Yet the despicable piece of legislation that was approved on Friday evening by 219 to212 was not readied until after 3:00am, less than 24 hours prior to the vote! I seem to remember President Bush was fiercely attacked as deviating from the rules for much less, or… is my memory playing tricks on me?

When will the mainstream media face up to their obligations to report the news, to truly report all the news “that’s fit to print?!?!?!” Why does the popularly elected President feel compelled to ram through the American throats far reaching legislation which not only will impact us and future generations, without responsible debate? Is his standing up in defense of dictators around the world a portent of his own future plans?!?!? Is dictatorship his real priority? Is that why he finds it necessary to first irreparably ruin our country?!?!? “Tell me who friends are and I’ll tell who you are,” says an old dictum… I’m worried, gentle reader, I’m worried…

One Response to “A Case of Dangerous Priorities”

Mr. Obama is so deeply aware of international politics that he is forced to travel a lot. He has very little time to comment on small things like an attempted revolution in Iran. In fact he was so busy, he said, “I have campaigned in all 57 states.”
Also, let’s not forget the powerful words Mr. Obama said about our country, “America is–is no longer, uh, what it–it, uh, could be, uh, what it was once was…uh, and I say to myself, ‘uh, I don’t want that future, uh, uh for my children.”
Wow!
Do we dare forget the holy and awesome words of Mr. Obama’s vice president, “The next person that tells me I’m not religious, I’m going to shove my rosary beads up their a**.”
That reminds me of Nancy Pelosi who speaks words of great wisdom. She said, “You don’t need God anymore, you have us Democrats.”
And finally, in the words of John Wayne, who knew what America was coming to, in the forms of Biden, Obama and Pelosi, “Life’s tough, but it’s even tougher if you’re stupid.”
