    Colonel Calls treason, Economist calls for Coup
    oscarrob
    by oscarrob  5-9-2007    2
     I find this thinking frightening. First - a military coup is by definition treason. Second - Therefore by this reasoning, the people espousing the view that a coup is the solution are actually more treasonous than those they accuse. This is fairly typical for those advocating a coup. Third - The Buzz Peterson interview ignores the first clause of the definition of treason, which in my view is tied to the second and therefore the second makes no sense without the first. Here is the whole definition; "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." "Adhering" is a fairly specific term, meaning joining or becoming a part of. The aid and comfort part is tied to the adhering part and tied to the war part. People who say we should be fighting Al Qaeda in different ways, can not be said to be adhering or giving aid and comfort by their mere words. Its always the Colonels.

    Defend the Constitution - Remove Gonzales

     Dick Viguerie says it best. I can't remember the last time I agreed with him, but this demonstrates how bad Gonzales is and also how bad it is for both sides to go down the paths that George and his cronies have taken us. It is a recognition of the slippery slope that "adjusting" the constitution for partisan politics can take you down. The Constitution and defense of it should rise above partisanship and we should fight for the defense constitutional rights and the Constitution itself no matter who it benefits at the moment.

     Maybe Mike Nifong is a criminal. He was supported publicly and vocally in his attack on the Duke LaCrosse team by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. I don't imagine we will see an apology or even and acknowledgment out of Sharpton or Jackson.

     If this isn't outrageous, I don't know what is. In my experience, the people on the ground don't lie. They have no incentive.

     It is hard for me to get out of my craw the abuses of this administration. Even if you sympathize with the rationale, it is not acceptable.
