A Honduran legislative committee voted not to convene a special session of Congress to consider returning the country's ousted leader, in a move likely to dash chances of Manuel Zelaya's returning to power even temporarily under a deal brokered last week by the U.S. On Tuesday, a committee of 13 legislators voted to not convene the special session, opting instead to wait until Congress receives nonbinding legal opinions

Obama in this case is being the Ugly American he has criticized around the world, only much worse. This has been his most arrogant, ill advised, over reaching failure yet.

I love the way this administration brags about the deals they make when actually they have no deal, never had a deal, and are never going to. No one in their right mind would take them up on one of their insane "deals".

''...Honduran politicians appear in no mood to change their vote from June 28, when they overwhelmingly voted to replace the president.'' Isn't that strange?

Looks like a bit*h slap to the face of Zero and the PIAPS.

Gee, could Zelaya actually be ... unpopular? Could Hondurans themselves not want him back? Will this mess up the best-laid plans of the Obama team, so anxious to claim it is impartially supporting democracy? Why did just 50 people show up to 'celebrate' Zelaya's deal? Why is every politician in Honduras terrified of the wrath of Honduran voters if they reseat this drug-dealing Cowboy Hat thief? Why? Was there something the ace State Department team didn't take into account here?
