    All the polls?

    Might want to watch some documentary's on what actually happened. I know its really easy to just ignore the obvious facts even tho they are right in front of your face, just because they are to confusing for you to understand, but if you look with both eye's open you will clearly see that Bush lost the election. They threw out hundreds of thousands of votes, and defiantly committed fraud.

    There is no doubt.

  • @CODHVideos All the polls showed the candidates were neck and neck.

    Do you get paid to spam your crap all over here?

    Might want to do some good research on the Kerry - Bush, Al-Gore - Bush election fraud, and exactly how Bush won those elections. A Chinese Communist Party style election is what it was, and yet they some how think they have a right to say whether or not the Honduras's elections were fraud? Why was Bush not impeached for starting the Patriot act which is against the constitution? Why so much hypocrisy.

  • "It is funny how the OAS was in a hurry to welcome back Cuba with a 50 years dictatorship and a history of no human rights in complete disregard for the OAS regulations and now is claiming that Honduras is not complying with them. Either the OAS Secretary is in someones payroll or they now have a double standard. For the leftist presidents, they are fighting it, because that is exactly what they did, change their constitutions to remain in power forever..." - Margarita Albaladejo, Miami

  • "If Zelaya thought it was in the best interests of Honduras to have a longer term, he should have followed proper channels with open discussion, not seeking to use the armed forces for his own ends by the back door. He should stay away to keep the situation calm and then we will see how the new leader performs. Far from being a military coup this was an example of the army standing up for a countrys democratic constitution." - Dave, Manchester

  • "Chavez has worked hard throughout Latin America to align governments to his socialist cause. He has used petro-dollars to fund insurgents and finance political campaigns for regime-change. (Remember the suitcase of his cash that was intercepted going to Argentina?) Bravo to the Hondurans for not rolling over." - Simon, W Palm Beach FL

  • "Today's events are painful as we see leaders of the hemisphere take solidarity with Zelaya and abandon a whole nation. It is called betrayal. Nevertheless, we Hondurans must pay the price of being shunned, if we are to learn to look after ourselves and not continue living on an international pseudo charity that carries high interest rates, both moral and financial." - Mario Mendoza, Tegucigalpa

  • "Zelaya was 24 hours away from being in a position to tear up the constitution and rule indefinitely. The Honduran Supreme Court and Army rightfully took Zelaya out of office before he could do this. Why will the world not applaud the government for standing against this man?" - Paul Johnson, Roatan, Honduras

  • "Honduras does not need any one person to remain in office indefinitely, and the constitution must be respected by everyone, not just the citizens. What President Zalaya is being accused of doing is in direct violation of the constitution." - Sheila Matute

  • In Honduras there is no immunity for the President. When Zelaya tried to subvert the constitution, he should simply have been arrested and gaoled. Putting him in exile was a huge mistake, because then he had the opportunity to get in the first words on what happened at the UN and portray himself as a victim, when what happened was just the outcome of a constitutional process he set in motion through his attempts to subvert democracy.
