When a Constitution Gets Trampled.......

Manuel Zelaya had no respect for his nation's constitution. When the leader of a nation violates the constitution of his nation he should be removed from office by constitutional means.

The Honduran constitution provides for no impeachment in the American way but does provide for the military to remove the offender from office by order of the supreme court thereby upholding their constitution.

If you take an oath of office to defend the constitution and then you do not defend it or support it or live by it, you are a traitor and must be removed from office according to the laws of your nation. In Honduras that is by military. Here, it is by impeachment. We need to use that impeachment more often.

Our military also takes an oath to defend the Constitution. That should be remembered. That means they need to know and understand that body of law. This video describes what happened in Honduras and why it was necessary for the military to take part.

Those of our home bred snobbish elite are complaining about the Honduran rule of law. They shouldn't but they do because they are ignorant about the truth. They aren't ignorant about the latest Hollywood gossip or the latest fad and fancy. Since the educational system has been dumbed down there is quite a lot of ignorance going on. There was a time when civics classes were required in high school education. Even home educators need to include lessons on civics and the Constitution. It is something so many young people don't know anything about. Most people have seen the man on the street interviews asking who is vice president, who is the premier of this nation or that and what was the American Revolution about. There are far too many who don't know and too many who live in some kind of fairytale world based on air head ideas of right and wrong.

Since the Bush administration we have watched the presidency abuse the power of executive orders to bypass Congress and the will of the people....who are the government... in order to make some kind of dictatorship. We have watched undeclared wars being fought with thousands of our military giving their lives for wars that Congress has not declared. This is unconstitutional and should not be. The military is sworn to uphold the constitution so why are they fighting in unconstitutional wars?

President Obama is now making private treaties with Russia and by passing Congressional ratification of them. That is unconstitutional but people are becoming so unknowledgable, so passive that they are not saying much about this. This is the road to fascism and dictatorship, not liberty or freedom.

The following video explains why Honduras did what was right in removing Zelaya from office.
