3:30PM: HONDURAN CONGRESS SAYS CAN'T ALLOW CONSTITUTIONAL ASSEMBLY TO EVER TAKE PLACE

A member of Honduras' Congress has just admitted that in discussions with the US Ambassador in Honduras, the US Ambassador suggested they just let the opinion poll take place and then vote against the Constitutional Assembly in November, but, said the congressmember, "we can't just allow 'these people' to do this with the help of Venezuela and Cuba."

"we can't have a constitution that allows the 'people' to elect members on the supreme court and allows the 'people' to be involved in government".......

They also blamed Zelaya for increases in corruption, drugtrafficking and the relationship with "chavismo" in Venezuela....

Nevertheless, they can be in disagreement with Zelaya's policies, but he was elected by a majority of Honduran people and still remains popular as their president...It's the elite and the conservative parties, which have power in Congress, who have backed this coup...
