We the people of Honduras support the change of power thru Constitutional ways as it was done. Most of hondurans support the respect to our constitution, here about 90% of the population are in favor of the change. Everything was done according to our laws. Zelaya is the most corrupt person we had had in the last years. He was so corrupt that sold himself to other countries, he did not work for the people of Honduras but only to extend himself in power. There was never more than a few hundred people protesting in the streets. Except than in a couple of places, there have not been clashes here.We are happy and in peace. I am a person who lives from his paycheck and we support the new government. Everyone should respect our autonomy and our laws. Zelaya is a thief, if he comes back he will be charged right away. He should be in prison already.

Honduras is happy without Mel, he is not a hero...he is a thief and a bandit. We don't want him back on power. Almost all the people from Honduras are happy...

Zelaya's record as president is mediocre. He disobeyed court rulings, went against congress and refused to dialogue. His ambition was to remain in power. We are glad he is gone. Nobody is above the law.

Capitaline and Xatrach represent those who overthrew Zelaya because he threatened to upset the priveledged position of Honduras ruling class, ie the political and business elites. They don't represet the majority of the Honduran people, and have no right to speak for the unrepresented masses. 80% of Hondurans live below the poverty line and have no access to computers, twitter, black-berrys or the like. It is these people that Zelaya was attempting to help, and among whom he could call on for electoral support. If Zelaya was as unpopular as these amateur propagandists claim, his referendum would have been defeated and that would have been the end of it. Instead, the military intervened illegally to prevent the publics will from being voiced. The pro-coup apologists blather about Zelaya trying to sieze power and impose "Chavez-style dictatorship". What a farce. How can a democracy possibly consider a non-binding citizen referendum as an illegal act? Letting the majority speak and hearing their preferences is somehow against the law? Regardless of the hypocracy of the court rulings, a Constitution cannot be set in stone but must be flexible enough to be adjusted to meet the publics need and expectations, and not considered a tool to prevent reform and allow a corrupt and greedy ruling elite to maintain a permanent stranglehold on power. It will be interesting to see how Obama reacts to this. US platitudes about democracy are traditionally worthless in this part of the world, and though Obama may call the militaries actions illegal, he will most likely not call it a coup as he does not want to have to introduce the sanctions required by US law. He will puff and bluster, but in the end will do nothing and proceed with all haste to a business-as-usual attitude. It is very possible that the CIA has encouraged the various Hondurans elites in this action, and that Obama is just putting on a unhappy face for domestic political requirements.
