Oh yeah, real democratic

Well, the reflexive sub-geniuses of the right have spoken and declared Honduras’ coup just democracy with a spicy Latin kick. You just know Cliff May and Rich Lowry came to this conclusion over deep-fried jalepeno poppers down at Chilis.

But if having the military toss a President out of the Country, invade a few homes, arrest a few leftists, that’s close enough for the handful of people who made their bones during the age of Bush.

But somehow that Honduran democracy seems more like a Rich Lowry wet-dream…I hope Sarah Palin isn’t in this one:

The Honduran Legislature approved earlier this afternoon a decree that suspends five of the rights of citizens in Honduras: the inviolable right of home, the freedom of association, a person can be held more than 24 hours without a charge and freedom of movement in the country.

Freedom on the march — in fine American-made boots. Just the kind they fantasize about.
