Treason
The word treason gets thrown around a lot, but this is one instance where I cannot think of any other word to describe what happened.
2004 was one of the bloodiest years in Iraq. In late 2004, the battle of Fallujah raged. The United States would suffer some of the heaviest casualties of the Iraq war during this time.
The America hating group "Code Pink" wanted to establish a "peace camp" at Fallujah. The US military rejected their request for assistance to get to Fallujah and assistance while they were there. The military had legitimate concerns about the $600,000 in cash and goods that were going to be distributed. The military legitimately feared that some of this support would go to insurgents who were killing American marines.
Enter Barbara Boxer and Henry Waxman. They each wrote letters to the American Embassy in Jordan asking that the Embassy assist Code Pink in its Iraqi adventure. Code Pink went to Iraq in 2004, decrying the war as "killing Iraqi children." While American soldiers were fighting to liberate Iraq, these people, with Boxer and Waxman, knowingly aiding and abetting them, gave aid and comfort to the enemy.
Of course Boxer and Waxman do not care. Patriotism for them is a joke. They do not love this country, nor do they care for those who do. The members of Code Pink who went to Iraq in 2004 are traitors and should be tried for treason. The Bush administration did nothing to those who helped the insurgents who killed Americans. Perhaps our next President will have the intestinal fortitude to do something about this. After all, there is no statute of limitations on treason.
Meanwhile, both Boxer and Waxman are up for reelection this year. The mainstream media ignores their aid to Code Pink as they gave aid and comfort to those trying to kill American soldiers. Some of the alternative media is covering this story. More should. You can find more information at the Daily Caller.

TOO LIGHT OF A SENTENCE! Go for all of it, DEATH! Then they will not find a politician to get them out. WE, Americans do not need for them to EVER be free!

No government should have the power to take the life of a citizen. The evil politics of men and women will see one without guilt on death row. Life is all we have and no persons on earth should be able to take that from us.

That is a nice theoretical point but what if you were handed a gun in 1939 and told you could shoot Hitler knowing full well the course history would take if you chose not to take a life. Would you shoot or stick to your theoretical stance and let 6 million Jews die? The world isn't theoretical and there is real evil. While you may not think treason is justification for the death penalty, to say that taking life is always bad is too simplistic.

Knowing what we know now...I would absoultely shoot Hitler if given a chance...even with the "treason death" knowlege hanging over my head. But of course, I would also 'shoot' anyone entering my property intending to do harm....I am not a violent person, however, when its between my family and danger....or the jews and Hitler...shooting is for the greater good.

Wrongly convicted just like every inmate in prison was innocent. They didn't rape that little girl or boy. You have got to be out of your mind to think those people were innocent but I guess its just that kind of thinking on capital hill that's not letting soldiers do the job they are trained to do. Tell me one thing though how does obamas kool-aid taste?

(Stingray)/b>i>"Conviction of treason in time of war carries an automatic death sentence, for good reason. All evidence is confirmed, reviewed, and verified by a panel of jurists of high competence"
A little naive surley...!
I'm one of the few who sides with you on this issue Dr A. Fail to see where abortion and jesus comes into this debate.... Is there any chance of being part of this movement these days without being a religious nut????
It appears the lunatics are trying to take over the asylum.....
I mean jesus F'ing Christ!
Restore the republic....Not establish a theocracy !!!
