March on Tegucigalpa

Deposed Honduran President Manuel Zelaya is staging a march from Nicaragua to the border of Honduras in his latest political manuever to regain his seat after being deposed by a military coup: Zelaya inició su marcha hacia Honduras Página 12 23.07.2009.

The Organization of American States (OAS) tried to negotiate a power-sharing arrangement as an interim settlement but it fell through.

I wonder what role if any American conservatives are playing in this. The Republicans neocons and the Christian Right have a bad record when it comes to opposing democracy and stirring up military trouble in Central America.
