Nader had zero to do with the treason against the American people in 2000.

Nader and anyone else who wants to run for the presidency in this country have every right to do so. Nader broke no laws, it's how our democracy works. If you want to change the laws, then work on doing so, I for one do not want to prevent anyone from running for office, unless they are a criminal.

The actual treasonous bastards on the SC thank you for covering for them, though. That meme is a right wing meme, and has been from day one.

The Felonious Five committed treason.

Ralph Nader had zero to do with the theft of the 2000 election.

No matter how many times the few remaining, lonely voices still attempting to push this to cover for the actual criminals, however inadvertantly, say so.

How is actual treason defined, and how did the SCOTUS meet this definition? Flatulo Jun 2012 #12

Vincent Bugliosi makes the case that what they did 'defiled the law' and was 'treason' sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #22

Interesting. I don't believe I'd heard it framed this way before. Flatulo Jun 2012 #25

No, he's fairly clear that while it is treasonous to steal an election, especially if you are the sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #72

Because they knew the election was stolen, and rightwing propagandists needed a scapegoat sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #23

You just now see it being "pushed" on the Left. Hogwash. Bolo Boffin Jun 2012 #28

Not reading a comment and then commenting on what you didn't read results in the kind of comment sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #66

Let me put it this way. Saying this was only a right wing meme until just recently is not true. Bolo Boffin Jun 2012 #70

You are incorrect, again. I did not say it was ONLY a rightwing meme. I was posting on sabrina 1 Jun 2012 #73

No, the media whores did an excellent job of sliming him. Remember "Gore is a liar?" McCamy Taylor Jun 2012 #16

I'm convinced the corporate media did it primarily because Gore was the leading political champion Uncle Joe Jun 2012 #39

You mean why didn't he seek the votes of the foolish? McCamy Taylor Jun 2012 #15
