I made no such point, and if that's what you read into it then your reading skills are deficient.

The mainstream press is almost entirely leftist. There are a few exceptions, Fox News being perhaps the best known of them. But for the most part our press has been in the left's pocket for generations.

That's not to say that some individual reporters don't still have some journalistic integrity - even a committed leftist can (if he allows himself to think critically) see the truth of a situation. It's just a question of whether he is honest enough (or brave enough) to report it accurately. I don't know much about Jake Tapper (the man I quoted above), but I'd be shocked if he was anything but a registered, loyal and enthusiastic Democrat given his position at ABC news. But apparently he has enough sense and enough journalistic integrity to report the basic fact I quoted accurately even though they are inconvenient to a President he very likely supported and still supports.


If the military had acted on its own initiative and placed one of its own generals in charge, I would agree with you. That truly WOULD be a putsch. But in this case, the military acted UNDER ORDERS from the Honduran congress and supreme court. They did not act on their own, nor did they place one of their own in charge.

I'm only aware of one, single government that Reagan overthrew, and that was Grenada. And if you are at all familiar with the historical facts of that situation (which I doubt) you would not complain that he had done so. The people of Granada were certainly glad and remain so to this day.

Overthrowing governments is not something the US does on a regular basis. It doesn't happen that often. But then, leftists seem to have this paranoid idea that the CIA is hiding under every rock, so I'm not surprised at your ignorance.

You aren't just talking apples and oranges here, you are talking apples and bowling balls. About the only similarity is that both are more or less round.

Aside from the cultural differences (Northwest US vs. Central America), city governments have vastly less impact on society as a whole and operate on a completely different level than national governments. National governments for instance are generally not too concerned about trash pickup on 13th Street. City government laws are generally far easier to change than national government constitutions. And generally - at least in the US - on those rare occasions when troops move into a city it's usually in response to a disaster of some sort and the survivors are generally very glad to see them.
