So Much for Transparency, Obama Won’t Release Legal Opinion on Honduras

While President Obama touts his commitment “to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government” his State Department refuses to offer Congress their legal reasoning behind this Administration’s absurd policy against the constitutional ousting of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya.

There have been numerous requests that the Administration release the legal opinion rendered by their handpicked State Department attorney Harold Koh; however, all such requests have been denied. So much for that promised openness.

Actually, to be fair to the administration, they have been extremely open about telling Al Qaeda and America’s other enemies our interrogation tactics.

Here’s a great piece from the Wall Street Journal by Senator Jim Demint who recently returned from a trip to Honduras where he met only one person who described the situation as a coup (Obama’s Ambassador).
