War Is Peace

Art imitating life imitating art, ad infinitum.Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. And constitutional removal of a treasonous president is a coup.

In Orwellian fashion, President Obama (along with the OAS) has declared the completely constitutionally legitimate actions of the acting Honduran government to be a coup. Andy McCarthty at NRO has a superlative takedown of President Obama's position here.

To be fair to President Obama, his position does coincide with two men who are experts in coup-ology: Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro.
