It took them until 4 pm PDT to post that answer, more than an hour after I posted the answer, and more than 6 hours after Rafael Pineda made the statement making it clear Micheletti remains in control during his "vacation".<br /><br />Is it possible that the "vacation" is something Craig Kelly cooked up and sold to Micheletti while he was in Honduras? I can see no other reason for the State Department to jump aboard the bandwagon so quickly. Even Panama didn't move that fast.RNShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197289255196253989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2341954168256070610.post-79634954166588571492009-11-20T16:29:28.891-08:002009-11-20T16:29:28.891-08:00Oh, but wait!

We reiterate that steady steps to implement the Accord will enhance prospects for transparent, fair, and free elections that will contribute significantly to ultimately resolving Honduras’ political crisis. The formation of a government of national unity is critical to implementation of the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord. </em><br /><br />So, there you have it, folks. If you want to know what the State Department thinks, ask Roberto Micheletti. <br /><br />--CharlesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
