Down through the decades, we have heard from many Democratic luminaries that the Constitution is a "living document."  Even Al Gore, the truly "elected" President, espouses the notion that the Constitution can be endlessly altered and amended, if only to extend legal protections to every sort of wheedling, behavior-based  victim-group. The social grammar, the invisible infrastructure of our national life can (and should be) manipulated by small groups of griping people.

We changed the Constitution to accommodate brown people and female people and gay people, so why don't we modify the Constitution to accommodate even more people as well?  Let's protect America itself, and all who live here, from the growing threat of Treason from within.    

Since we've re-defined who and what a voter  is, who and what a citizen is, who and what a baby is, and indeed what the actual meaning of "is" is, let's re-define who and what a traitor "is."  

Times have changed, and the basic documents that formed our country should to be brought up to speed.  Old-timey traitors would have transmitted their seditious information by runner, or horse messenger, by secret meetings, lantern flashes, encrypted notes, or servants and lackeys.  Later (and even in ancient times) there were complex physical and linguistic ciphers.  Then, in the Cold War, came covert coded radio transmissions, ingenious audio-tapes and micro-film.    

But today's anti-American ideas can be communicated in a thousand new and different ways.

Instantly.

Hatred can be spread in moments.  Subversion flies over the satellite networks in the blink of an eye.  

And there's a lot more of it in every blink.

On the Fourth of July, 2003, a woman called into C-Span and asserted that George Bush and his "cronies" like Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, and Donald Rumsfeld should be rounded up and killed.  Yes, ..... killed.  She dirtied the nation's birthday with the demand that the American president be assassinated.  

Later in that same show, and on nearly every subsequent call-in show for weeks afterward, quite a few other people (all Democrats and Liberals, of course) advocated killing the president and his administration.  They called President Bush "thug," "terrorist," "criminal;" they called him "Hitler," "killer," "deserter," "coward;" they called him "racist," "puppet," "dupe," "fascist," "thief," "deserter" and "LIAR!"

They maintain that America is the most criminal nation on Earth, the cruelest nation, the most hypocritical nation, the most tyrannical nation, indeed the most EVIL nation there ever was, and as such we deserve to be destroyed by the combined forces of the poor of the world, the workers of the world, the non-white people of the world, and especially by our Islamic victims.

These people absolutely HATE America.  They hate our leaders.  They hate our way of life.  And they're all Americans themselves!  

These Americans feed their hate to each other, and they feed on each other's hate.  It grows logarithmically, like mold on old fruit, until all the malignant sheep are beating on the same drum.  And the bleat goes on, day after day, week after week, year after year.

They've decided that not a day shall pass which doesn't contain at least one pernicious, seditious verbal assault on the American President, designed to destabilize the commander-in chief and insult the traditional American way of life.

As we've learned from hate-crime laws, speech can be as much a weapon as a gun.  The intent behind the assault is what matters to the authorities.  And the intent of these Bush-haters is to undermine and wound the president, undermine and wound America's place in the world, and to encourage others to both hate and act against this country (and especially President Bush).

Now, certainly there's a major difference to be drawn between the lawful free expression of political opinion and the unlawful sedition of traitors.  And, of course, these America-haters insist that they are not traitors at all.  What are they going to say?

In fact, they assert that they're Patriots!  Honest to gosh Patriots!  They insist that real patriots question authority, real patriots condemn a bogus president, real patriots fight to undermine a racist, sexist, energy profiteering econo-tocracy hell-bent on dominating, depleting,  and destroying the whole world by enslaving its defenseless people and devastating the environment, all in the name of greed and profits for the few evil-doers (like Dick Cheney and that evil lying bastard Bush) at the top of the criminal capitalist pyramid.

They allege that America is well served by negative criticism.  Would a marriage be well served by the kind of daily insults they heap on their own nation? How could any committed relationship withstand 50 years of withering criticism?      

There is absolutely no doubt but that America's Left-wingers are at war with America itself.  They admit it every day, they call their war The Struggle, The Good Fight, The Battle.  And why do they wage war on America?  Because America is evil.  Because they hate what America is: a country running on merit instead of redistribution; a country where there are winners and losers; where it's possible for one person to have more than another; where the government doesn't federalize and reallocate money, goods, and services according to the eerie standards of social justice, political correctness, and mathematical cultural sameness.

But, in the end, there's nothing else for it.  They ARE traitors.  They're non-uniformed combatants waging a very real war on America from the inside out.  Their main weapons are constant hate-speech and vicious lies spread to millions of other enemies, both here and all around the world.        

Just like Al Qaida and other terrorist groups, they're characterized by their lack of obvious regimentation and organization.  Sure, they have their Taliban at the top of the war effort.  Liberal super-nitwits like Ted Kennedy, Michael Moore, Norm Solomon, Al Franken, Janeane Garafalo, Mike Farrell, Ralph Nader, Barbara Streisand, James Carville, Julian Bond, Noam Chomsky, Cornell West, Amy Goodman, Paul Begala and the laughable "poet" Baraka (Leroy Jones) are some of the most visible fighters in the war against America.  But they, and their repugnant ilk, are only a small cadre of highly visible co-equal generals at the top of an angry pyramid built of shadowy activist cells that range from college professors and students to the retirees who spike every call on C-Span to the eco-terrorists and the disloyal idiots who think President Bush destroyed the World Trade Center.  It's these lower-tier warriors who spread the hate of their superiors far and wide, indeed to the ends of the Earth, through the new communication technologies like Cable TV, Satellite Radio (NPR and Pacifica Radio come to mind), emails, Web-Logs, wireless phones, Net Meetings, Power-Point presentations, floppies and CD's.

Just imagine the damage Benedict Arnold might have done with a laptop connected to the internet!  What damage might he have done with a rage-filled website like Smirking Chimp?

Again, the whole goal of all this hate and plotting is not the mere expression of political opinion but the actual destruction of the President, America, and the American way of life.  They try to recruit more anti-Americanism here.  Worse, they both encourage and validate more virulent extreme anti-American sentiments the world over.  

That, ladies and gentlemen, is WAR!

War, as surely as if they were enemy soldiers running wild in our streets; War, as surely as if they were setting fires on Wall Street or shooting into the White House; War, as surely as if they were blowing up statues of the Ten Commandments or the Buddha.  While Al-Qaida, the Taliban, and the last of Saddam's losers attack our soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, our own home-grown Left Wingers attack the Commander-in-Chief.  There is no difference whatsoever, not even one degree of separation, between the people in other lands who hate America and the Americans here who hate America and it's President.  The intent is the same, the hate is the same, they're both tactics of War.    

And Americans who make war on America are TRAITORS!  Not Patriots.

It's about time we updated the Constitution by creating a new definition of treason for the 21st Century.

A definition which includes death threats against the President or his administration delivered over the public radio and television airwaves and through emails, websites, chat rooms, news groups and other internet facilities; a definition that includes the deliberate pollution of our common political information pool with lies plied by newspaper, magazine, radio, and television pundits designed to turn the hearts and minds of people against America itself; a definition which includes those people who actually make a living by trafficking in malice for America, it's government, and it's way of life.

It's about time wholesome Americans asserted their right to social justice.  People who burn the flag are at war with America.  People who call for the death of our leaders are at war with America.  People who lie and distort, who mock and sneer at our national efforts are trying to undermine the administration of our very government itself by spewing hate and rancor toward the very economic institutions that support life on Planet Earth.  They're at war with America, trying to ruin every wholesome thing for which America stands.  

Now, if the woman who flipped the finger to Slick Willie Clinton (the infamous rapist president) was put in jail for three days, then surely the woman who called for the death of George Bush should get a few years in federal prison at the very least.  Indeed, it would be a great lesson for college students to see a few of their professors sitting behind bars for spreading treasonous Anti-American contempt.  And what a wonderful example for us all to see a few of these bile and venom filled C-Span grandmas washing prison laundry for the next five years, or swinging from a military gallows.  

In the end, these traitors have, for far too long, hidden behind the phony notion that they are "patriotic dissidents."  In fact, the Democrats have been waging a self-admitted decades-long war with America, just like the Taliban, only better ..... and longer.  These people have, by their own admission, been conducting a "Struggle," a "Good Fight," a "righteous war," a "moral war," on their own country for the last 50 years.  

In the past, there were fewer treasonous people simply because there were fewer people overall.  Nowadays, there are billions of people and a comparable proportion of treasonous people among us, working their evil in the full light of day for all to see.  It's just that easy.  They spread their treason at the speed of light.  

We, as citizens, must alter the Constitution of this great land to recognize and penalize this new treason with just as much force as our forefathers penalized the old-fashioned treason.  

Today's New Treason is just as dangerous as any treason anywhere has ever been.  Let's wake up and smell the traitors in our midst.  Then punish them.

Great article, agree 100%.   I've been calling liberals traiters as a matter of routine for quite a while now.

go read something by Eric Arthur Blair

Well said.

long read but worth it and accurate.

That's pretty fucked up right there.

Excellent read. I thought he really nailed it with this article.

Not IMHO.  It used to be that advocating the assasination of the President, VP and Secretary of Defense was a crime.  It should be that way again.

OK, we should "punish" anyone who dissents.

If you make a threat against the president, the secret service will have a nice little chat with you, but his examples I feel, are using the extremes to justifying silencing roughly half of the American citizenry when it comes to our current president.

stupid.

that kind of thinking is why we need the 2nd ammendment, just in case a jack ass like this author gets some power and decides that government/big brother knows best and "traitors" should be "punished". First you aren't allowed to disagree with politicians ("yer hatin America!") publicly, then they'll start monitoring your private communications.

The Founder's made it hard to declare someone a traitor for a reason.

You are, apparently, ignorant of the meaning of the word "dissent."  It doesn't mean advocate assassination.

I disagree with the opinion that the president is doing a bad job, but to say that someone having or expressing that opinion is guilty of treason is ridiculous.  

Lest we forget, less than 250 years ago our country was founded by a bunch of "Traitors". However distasteful someone's opinion about our government may be, the moment you silence them you've lost sight of our most fundamental right as Americans.

I am sure against a Constitutional Amendment of this kind. It would damge this nation and individual freedom far more than what these traitorous socialist POSs do though I will admit they damage it plenty. There may well be a Civil War coming as a result and I am not to opposed to it. But altering the Const is another matter.

The fact IMO is that the socialists would piss all over the rights that most of us hold ear so I am not much interested in theirs. Always told people when I was younger, ex-mil that I would do whatever it took to protect their rigth to dissent, etc. I eventually became aware that they would destroy ours in a nightime if they could get away with it. As such I no longer give a damn aobut theirs. Piss on 'em. However, altering the Const would eventually be used against everyone and that is why I would oppose it.

Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah..............................................................................Anyone who does'nt agree with me is a traitor............................Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah................



is that just about the jist of that tired tirade???

It's one thing to disagree. That's called dissent.

It's quite another to fabricate lies and spread them throughout the cooperative (and traiterous) media, with the intent of helping the enemy defeat us. That's treason, and should be punishable by death.

Quoted: However, altering the Const would eventually be used against everyone and that is why I would oppose it.

Indeed.  

It sickens me as much as the next guy to hear some of the bullshit they spew, but it should make us feel good too in a way.  There are plenty of countries where someone saying that on television would be drug out and shot, or be stopped from saying it in the first place.  

And as satisfying a mental picture as that may be in this particular case, bear in mind that our present political climate is fleeting, and in 2-20 years that pendulum will swing left again.  If this had been law during the Clinton administration, many or most  of us would have been "punished".  Whatever that means.

Quoted: It's one thing to disagree. That's called dissent. It's quite another to fabricate lies and spread them throughout the cooperative (and traiterous) media, with the intent of helping the enemy defeat us. That's treason, and should be punishable by death.

Unquestionably there are legal ways to deal with these things now, including the call for assassinating the President. They sre went after a few people during the Clinton years.

Problem here, as in so many things, is a lack of balls by the conservatives. The Republican Party is gutless.

Quoted: with the intent of helping the enemy defeat us. That's treason, and should be punishable by death.

This is kind of a disingenuous argument, as people who do what you suggest are traitors, and when caught they are prosecuted and punished.

I'm assuming (dangerous, I know) that by enemy you are referring to the terrorists, particularly the Islamofascists.  

Are you seriously suggesting that the Left is spreading lies and intelligence with the INTENT that the ISLAMOFASCISTS will succeed in their mission to see America fall into ruin?

The Left do plenty of hate worthy things as it is without having to reach into the imaginary.

Quoted:   Are you seriously suggesting that the Left is spreading lies and intelligence with the INTENT that the ISLAMOFASCISTS will succeed in their mission to see America fall into ruin?

I am, Mostly just lies though.
Probably some intel. Always happens. Look at the post WWII situation with socialists and communists in this country aiding the Soviets. McCarty wasn't all right but he sure as Hell wasn't all wrong. And it cost us a lot of money, a lot of lives.

I'm saying the left is doing just that, except their aim is to regain their recently lost dominance in Congress as well as the White House.  What's bad for the country is usually good for the left.


ETA: An example is their tendency to lie by exclusion. By running only negative news stories on the war, and never mentioning the good news or barely glossing it over (such as the elections) they give hope to the enemy. By insisting on withdrawl on a time table, they make it feasable for the enemy to just wait us out.  Their attempts to damage Bush puts our beloved troops in increased peril.  Sounds like treason to me.  Then there are the blatant fabrications....

the left is rediculous...and while they bash and assault bush's character for for doing a job they most certainly dont have the balls for... they probably will soon bask in the great security and comfort created by or current president, who does actually care about american values and the american way of life, and wants to make america and the world a safer place for us..and ofcourse they will blame any problems they cause in office on the right, b/c thats what they do, whine and point the finger of blame..liberals are terrorists, and thats why they are the left...b/c they just aint RIGHT

also on a side note, i think its time that america announces its fight against islamofascists as the next crusades, and that the rest of europe needs to grow some balls and fight w/ us against them like the europe of ages past

Hey, maybe one day we can pass are own Enabling Act (Ermaechtigungsgesetz) just like the Nazis did and get rid of our political enemies that way.

That would be swell.

How things are today is the way it has always been. You think you everyone was happy about having to fight in WWII? Hell no. There were plenty of dissenters back then from all kinds of political ideologies. Got through that War and went back to normal (sort of.) The important thing is that they didn't change the Constitution to fight a War that was a far greater threat to the US than what is currently going on. FDR learned not to screw with the Constitution in 1937 when he tried to pack the Supreme Court.

In a thread about 6 months ago I said I wished someone would have shot Fienswien already,  I should go to jail for that.

In the 1960's (1964 election is a good date) the COMMUNISTS took over the democrat party slowly but surely.  They KNEW a thrid party would not work in this country and decided to take over one of the major parties.

The leadership of the Democrat Party are COMMUNISTS and make NO mistake about it.  Read Marx and then the campaign promises of Democrats.

Looks like someone has been cribbing from Karl.


THEY ARE TRAITORS AND ARE NOT ACTING IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CONSTITUTION THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE SWORN TO DEFEND.

As an aside not all Democrats are communists, eg, Zell Miller. HOWEVER, the vast number of communists are Democrats.

This is the same arguement with Islamists, not all Muslims are terrorists, BUT the vast majority of terrorists are Muslim.

You HAVE to RECOGNIZE, PUBLICIZE and OSTRACIZE the problem.

No apologies, if you don't like the way of life here enough to advocate and REALLY MEAN, killing elected officials, you not only are advocating the death of the official but the MAJORITY OF PEOPLE THAT ELECTED THE OFFICIAL.  

Quoted: In a thread about 6 months ago I said I wished someone would have shot Fienswien already,  I should go to jail for that.

Why?  She ain't POTUS, VP or Sec Def.  I'd rather read that she'd choked on her own puke after an all night bender in San Fran.

To this post I can only say "Yup".

Let them talk, let them whine, let them threaten. It doesn't help them. Supression will make them look like martyr's.

Let them shout it any where they want to, then, make them prove it.
Truth doesn't have to suppress lies, it  just has to be spread.

We must continue to fight lies with truth, not threats.

bad ideas, when exposed to the weight of public opinion, have a tendency to be crushed, while good ideas tend to be lifted above. Censorship, in any form, for any reason, is wrong. calling someone a traitor for words alone is WRONG. words are not actions, they are the trasfer of ideas. knowledge cannot be had, or perceptions cannot change, without UNHINDERED COMMUNICATION. let those with evil thoughts express them, and let them be crushed by public opinion.

just remember that words are NOT ACTIONS. words are the transfer of ideas, and ideas alone, unless acted upon, have no bearing on the world around us. they only change our percection of the world. thinking that someone is bad(bad idea), and killing them becuase you think they are bad(action based on bad ideas), is the difference between the orginal posters idea of a traitor and the orginal intent of a traitor (IMHO) as defined in the constitution. (which reads..."Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.") making war and giving aid and comfort are both ACTIONS, not ideas.
