Instapundit — ... YOUR ANALYSIS IS FLAWED; IT DOESN’T REACH OUR DESIRED CONCLUSION: Kerry wants Law Library report on Honduras retracted. “A month ago, the Law Library of Congress reviewed the removal of Manuel Zelaya from his post as President of Honduras, an act that the Obama administration called a ‘coup’ and demanded reversed for its illegality. To the embarrassment of the White House and State Department, the Congressional body determined that Honduras acted lawfully in removing Zelaya for his crimes against their constitution, although they determined that his ...
