A real TRAITOR!!!! Let's DO something about it!!!!!
Yesterday I received two more forwarded emails from my Republican friend: one a joke about Obama and the other about Benghazi. From the wording, both had been circulating for years. This morning I responded to them in what I thought was a very factual, non-partisan, even friendly manner, but then caught myself telling him that, to me, continuing to bring up Obama and Hillary was a waste of perfectly good anger and indignation.
Then I said to myself, gee, if it's okay to continue to bring up old "bad people," why not bring up Benedict Arnold? The guy was a general in Washington's army, then betrayed them, went over to the British side, fought against the Americans, and eventually moved to England, then Canada, and finally back to London. So he was not only a traitor, but he got away with it. So let's get the press involved, get a congressional investigation going, convict him, and arrange to have his body extradited so we can hang him.
How's that sound?
