IMO, the dems are at the very least guilty of giving aide to the enemy. That qualify's them as traitors...congradulations!!!

Question now is:
Because if you can't come up with anything, they didn't "aid the enemy" and thus are not traitors. By extension, your act of attempting to get patriotic citizens killed is in itself an act of treason.
Iran contra scandal, Watergate, assasinations of Martin Luther King, John F Kennedy, Iran contra scandal, Invasion of Iraq, Iran contra scandal, supply of Afgani terrorists with weapons, Iran contra scandal, overthrow of several democratic governments, Iran contra scandal.
Don't you love how the Right so lightly tosses around the term "treason"? I could come up with a lot to say about George W. Bush, one of the very worst presidents to ever sit in the White House, a man who has set some kind of record for dishonoring the office of the President, and I still wouldn't call him a traitor. (In a very casual and inconsequential way, I could call the Reagan White House treasonous because of Iran-Contra, but there's a substantial difference between embarrassing the leadership and undermining the country as a whole.)
But the conservative use of "treason" is far too... broad. It goes right back to Jane Fonda -- not having been there, "Hanoi Jane" comes off more as a clueless politically active celebrity than a true traitor to her country. Since then the concept has become so thoroughly cheapened that I think we need a new word for it...
English motherfucker, do you speak it?
Oh, treason, you mean like the time Reagan sold missiles to Iran, a nation he himself had designated as a nation that sponsored terrorism, and then used the money to find rebels against the recognized government of Nicaragua?
Or had you, like the rest of the right-wing bots forgotten that?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
