Tegucigalpa - Honduras' interim government says it has ordered the military to prevent ousted President Manuel Zelaya from landing in the country. Soldiers outnumbered travelers at the nation's main airport and commercial flights have been canceled. Zelaya has called on his supporters to mass at the airport for a showdown with the country's current leaders.

The news comes as Exiled Honduran president announced this afternoon his imminent departure from Washington for Honduras to reclaim his post.

Exactly. Anyone Castro and Chavez support should be regarded as a communist and an enemy of the USA; it's disgraceful that Obama is supporting him.

What is the surprise. By now everyone with a brain can see that Obama is
Communist socialist. He is bending over backwards to befriend every known
dictator and thug out there - this is no secret. This dangerous fool will go down in history as having caused the most damage to America in the shortest amount of time. It will take decades to recover if ever.

How does it work? if Obama supports Zelaya then Castro & Chavez join Obama? or the other way around, if Castro & Chavez support Zelaya then Obama follows in same direction? we all see that they are all on the same page, the question is who follows whom?
