As a spiritual-futurist, I have a BA degree majoring in history. One cannot know the future without knowing the past which holds clues to what is on the horizon. The world is in such a rapid expansion of knowledge that we are close to entering a tipping point that will forever change earth as we know it.
Who would have ever guessed that these three would be on the same side? Who would have ever guessed that Chavez would be calling a U.S. president friend and SOCIAL ALLY? That there is a shift in consciousness occurring on this planet I have no doubt; however, this bring s a totally different slant to the process taking place.
I don't get the moral outrage by the trio, nor the UN, or OAS!
You have the president of Honduras (Zelaya) trying to become a dictator, defying the Supreme Court, defying the Congress, firing the military, allowing illegal drugs to be laundered through his nation, and totally abandoning the Constitution of Honduras. So, when the Congress and Supreme Court asks the military to remove him, it's a COUP? I guess a military take over has many different definitions.
And then after the military removes Zelaya, they back off and let the Congress and Supreme Court rule.
The regime that ousted Manuel Zelaya in Honduras claimed Tuesday that the deposed president allowed tons of cocaine to be flown into the Central American country on its way to the United States. "Every night, three or four Venezuelan-registered planes land without the permission of appropriate authorities and bring thousands of pounds ... and packages of money that are the fruit of drug trafficking," its foreign minister, Enrique Ortez, told CNN en Espanol.
"We have proof of all of this. Neighboring governments have it. The DEA has it," he added.
So, here's a man who wants to change the constitution so he can rule for life like Hugo Chavez and Obama is outraged? I don't get it While Zelaya wins widespread support, including from President Obama as well as Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, critics in the United States are asking why the U.S. leader doesn't take a stand against clearly illegal actions by Honduras' ousted chief executive.
Why indeed?

Obama's Socialist Health Care Plan-A Fraud for America
By: byron ruffin | 17/12/2009H.R. 3962, the health care reform bill being pushed through Capitol Hill, is nothing more than another fraudulent scheme of suspected Kenya-born Obama's unconstitutional and un-American agenda to undermine the freedom, prosperity, health and natural rights of every American citizen. The health care reform that Obama wants to impose is a socialist system in which Americans will have less control over their own lives and the government will assume more.
