Cries of Treason

 

Roger L. Simon:

Is it treason when you put your own reelection above the good of your country and the lives of its citizens? If so, Barack Obama committed treason in leaving the four Americans to die in Benghazi.

Our Constitution defines it this way: “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.”

Aid and comfort to the enemy — what is that?

When you ascribe an action to the protest of a video when it is actuality a planned terror attack by Ansar al-Shariah, an established offshoot of al-Qaeda (if that’s not your “enemy,” then who) — and you knew that all along, you watched it live without doing anything, and then you told those who wanted to help to “stand down”?

Meanwhile, our government may have been conspiring to arm another offshoot of al-Qaeda in Syria.

How much more treasonous can you get? Benedict Arnold was a piker.

Indeed, the discussion of Benghazi has just begun. And don’t be surprised if the conversation escalates from impeachment to treason very quickly. In fact, if Obama wins reelection you can bet on it. The cries of treason will be unstoppable....

 

And the treachery is not limited to our president. See Pat Caddell's comments - beginning at about 1:15 - that [the media} has become a "fundamental threat to American democracy and the enemies of the American people..... these people have no honor .... Coverup is too nice a word...."

A number of us nugatory non-entities who post on the Web have used the "t" word when referring to Obama -- but it's nice to see a big-name blogger get past all the euphemisms and evasions and spell out t-r-e-a-s-o-n. Patrick Henry was proud to apply the word to himself ("If this be treason, make the most of it"). I doubt that Obama will be nearly so proud now that Roger Simon has applied the word to him.
