You've got deposed wannabe dictator Zelaya hanging out on the Honduran border this weekend in a situation that could erupt into violence at any moment (see link below). But instead of thinking to raise that issue even once with Hillary (at least that I saw), MTP host David Gregory was able to find time for a variety of topics that a Secretary of State should always be asked about, such as (1) Sarah Palin, (2) health care reform, (3) the Cambridge police "acted stupidly" story, and (4) Hillary's future political ambitions. Excuse me for being so naive as to think that important foreign affairs issues like Honduras might actually be raised with a Secretary of State before the domestic panoply listed above. There are some good, tough questions that could have been asked about the Honduran situation, the Chavez connection, and the responsive words and actions taken by the U.S. thus far. But Gregory totally missed the boat.
