1. Weisbrot doesn't mention the most damning fact of all: John McCain has funneled $43 million
of US taxpayer dollars through the "International Republican Institute"/USAID to rightwing, coup supporting political groups in Honduras (Eva Gollinger FOIA research). Now this same rightwing agency, the IRI, is going to "monitor" this Junta-run Honduran election?!

Words fail.

2. IRI will NEVER be able to atone for what they did to Haitians. Hideous.
Dirtiest citizens in the U.S.A. sticking their snouts all the way into this Honduran "election."

How sad it is to see this true evil going right in front of our eyes, within driving distance from the U.S., and knowing they have wormed their way into so much power they have access, no doubt, to US military backup if they play their dirty cards right. Just as they did in Haiti, etc.
