Jim Demint in Honduras. I guess there is no security issues when you buddies with the dictator

approval for such trips is usually only declined out of security concerns.

DeMint left yesterday for Honduras with three other members of Congress, after Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell made his own booking of a US military plane, paid for by the State Department.

So, it's apparent that the Republicans who loves them some dictators, don't see a security problem if the plane is loaded with cigars and champaign for the defacto dictator.

I don't give a damn about Demint(ed) and his party, but his military escort is high on my list of concerns.
