Our government revokes that country's official's visas, obviously. I'm referring, of course, to Honduras, where their Congress voted then-president Manuel Zelaya out of office, their Supreme Court ordered his arrest, and their military removed him from the country. The only questionable action here was the removal instead of prosecution, but the US and other Western nations insist in calling this a coup and punishing Honduras (revoking visas, suspending aid, threatening sanctions).
This is a sovereign nation trying to protect itself from what were likely Chavez-like dictatorial moves. How exactly does the Obama administration get off condemning another nation for trying to protect its democracy? If Bush displayed arrogance in his foreign policy, Obama is now displaying anti-American arrogance.
