Hugo Chavez: the US/Yankee empire had a lot to do with Honduras coup of Manuel Zelaya #tcot

Hugo Chavez, the man who Obama is so anxious to kiss up to, has blamed the US aka the “Yankee Empire” for the coup in Hondarus. From The Hill:

Chavez, who succeeded on his second try to push a similar referendum that allows his indefinite re-election, lashed out at the U.S. and Obama in Caracas, alleging “the Yankee empire had a lot to do” with the “coup d’etat” against his fellow leftist leader.

“I call on the president of the United States to issue a statement as we have, rejecting this affront, which not only goes against Honduras but against all the peoples of Latin America,” Chavez said.
