We’re all waiting with baited (or bated) breath here at PJTV central to see the interview just scored by “Our Man in Tegucigalpa” Chris Burgard with Roberto Micheletti – the interim Honduran president who has been treated with some disdain by our administration. [Is that the same gang that had mixed feelings about the Iranian democracy movement?-ed. Yeah, those guys. The "progressives."] This is Micheletti’s first video interview en ingles, though he did write an op-ed for the WSJ a few days ago.
According to Chris, he talks with PJTV about the visas for Honduran diplomats withdrawn by our State Department, Hezbollah, Chavez, Obama and the Narco War. Can’t wait to see it myself. The video should be up on PJTV sometime Saturday morning, the goddess willing.
Meanwhile, check out PJTV’s extensive Honduras coverage here. For some reason the mainstream media isn’t covering this story much anymore. After branding the expulsion of President Zelaya a coup, they called it a day, even though the Honduran Supreme Court itself had ordered the wannabe caudillo stripped of his office. [They're not saying much about the Iranian freedom demonstrators either. -ed. Not their thing, I guess.]
Roger:
I think you meant “bated breath”(as in abated, or stopped)not “baited breath” (as in worms on hooks).
Unless you are emulating Sally the Cat:
Sally, having swallowed cheese
Directs down holes the scented breeze
Enticing thus with baited breath
Nice mice to an untimely death.
I guess a republic defending itself from a wantabe dictator, or people stuggling to establish a more representative government, just doesn’t fit the “progressive” narrative.
# 1 not that it is important, but check out Roger’s first line {or bated}. In anycase loved seeing Sally The Cat, long time since. Thanks and have a good week.
Either the msm supports leftists thugs stealing power or they want to hide the fact that their loverboy, obama, does. I’ll be generous towards the msm and guess, in most instances, it’s more of the latter. Mary Beth Sheridan of the wapo being one of the instances, I have no doubt, it being the former.
Good job picking up the slack from the progressive American media.
Why does the US have a well-staffed embassy in Tegucigalpa if we can’t get this story straight? How do Obama’s the policies implemented by Hilary Clinton’s State Department advance American interests in the region? Supporting anti-Americans sympathetic to cocaine smugglers is change we can believe in?
Forgive the typos above. Micheletti is a better spokesman for freedom than our President. Let’s hope he succeeds and that our White House learns from him.
