You getting pissed is hardly justification for a determination of treason.

I'll quote my response, from another thread, to your claim that Kerry is a traitor:

As for Kerry last time I checked lying to congress (read perjury) is not protected speech, especially when it plays into the hands of our enemy.
Last time I checked, lying to Congress (and I'm just going to let that belief of yours go unchecked here) is also not treason. So yes, your statement is inconsistent.

"it plays into the hands of our enemy" - could there be a more vague methodology to label someone a traitor? Apathy could also "play into the hands of the enemy".

If we're setting the bar so incredibly low and supported with such far fetched justifications for such a significant claim, that of treason, here's my contribution:

Bush is a traitor because he lied to the American people to further his and his cronies oil interests, costing the lives of over a thousand Americans. Playing RIGHT into the hands of Osama Bin Laden. Aiding the enemy.

Ann Coulter is a traitor because she forsakes the religious freedom of the U.S. to champion the wholesale annihilation or conversion of all Muslims in the Middle East, thereby instigating a flat-out religious war which would inevitably cost thousands and thousands of American lives. Playing RIGHT into the hands of Osama Bin Laden. Aiding the enemy.

There's no end to whatever fanciful, imaginary and ultimately arbitrary claim I can make with your methodology of defining treason.

Of course, then when someone does come along who is actually commiting treason - no one is going to believe me if I were in a position to point it out. There's a childrens parable about that.
