36. Seriously - if you consider they're willfully obstructing the Commander-in-Chief during wartime.

We ARE still at war. That makes whoever sits behind the big desk in the Oval Office is a War President. The Commander-in-Chief, not just figuratively but literally. To obstruct the Commander-in-Chief during a time of war can CERTAINLY be viewed as an act of treason.

Or look at it another way. Theirs. What if the situation were the other way around, and it was a republi-CON who was president during wartime. WHILE. Our. Nation. Was. Quite. Literally. At. WAR. Any guesses as to how they'd be bellyaching out loud against us? It's already happened. Throughout the entire nightmare of the bush2 years after the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Hell, ann coulter even wrote a book called "treason" that was all about how "treasonous" all liberals and Democrats are.
