It is hard work to spend every day picking fruit from trees that produce it, and scotch-taping that fruit to the trees that would have none otherwise-- so that the orchard will appear to be a more “fair” place. But Mr. Obama took a break from his self-important toil just long enough to show us his true sympathies in world affairs.
In Iran, Obama stayed mum while a brutal dictator slaughtered his own people in the streets. Obama explained the dullness, dimness, and lateness of his criticism by pointing out a need to “see how the situation would unfold”.
A week later, with Honduras, when former President Zelaya made an anti-constitutional move to extend his term beyond the legal limit; and when the Legislative, Judiciary, and Military branches of government moved together to prevent him from becoming a Socialist Dictator, then Obama waited for nothing to “unfold” before emptying his whole sack of negative rhetoric upon the law-abiding branches of the Honduran government. In this, Obama essentially demanded that President Zelaya be allowed to resume his illegal efforts to become a dictator.
Take note people.
Money grows on certain trees, but Socialist Dictators grow on all the rest.
