It's Treason: Dems Stay Silent on Bush White House Crimes

Lying to the people and the Congress was the most despicable violation of the rule of law by Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, but many more followed.

he mainstream Democrats -- represented, say, by Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Joe Biden, and Christopher Dodd -- have not levied war against the United States. Their treason lies instead in committing the second offense: They adhere to enemies of the country, giving them aid and comfort.

An impassioned plea for mainstream Democrats to impeach the President and Vice-President of the United States for their 'crimes' in connection with the ongoing 'War on Terror.'

by Roland F. Hirsch - Oct. 1, 2008

This opinion piece is not at all balanced or fair and cannot get a rating better than 1 on these measures. It also ignores a historical perspective. The author would have had EVERY war-time President impeached according to his criteria. Why is not President Bush compared with Presidents Lincoln, Wilson, FDR, Kennedy, ...? That would have made for an article with journalistic merit. This however is very poorly sourced and argued and the author uses extreme rhetoric not likely to convince someone who has not already agreed with his position.
