Postcards from a Padded Cell: Tea Party Congressman: Obama Will Commit Treason If Reelected

http://thinkprogress.org/special/2012/04/19/468002/mike-fitzpatrick-obama-treason/


At a campaign fundraiser last week, Tea Party Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick (R-PA) warned attendees that President Obama would commit treason if reelected in November.

Fitzpatrick was listing the reasons why voters should not support the President, and for reason number three, he told the audience that President Obama would have no qualms auctioning off state secrets to foreign countries.



I once said: "I long for the good ol' days, when Ignorance wasn't considered a Political Position". I guess I'll have to update that statement to match the current GOP: "I long for the good ol' days when Psychosis wasn't a Political philosophy."

6. What's the big deal when GOP governors auction off our infrastructure?

They practically give away our roads so foreign entities can charge whatever they want and hold our commerce and transportation hostage.
