WASHINGTON — Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Democratic presidential candidate and no stranger to contrarian views, was the sole congressman Tuesday to vote against the House's Sept. 11 commemoration resolution
Tuesday's nonbinding resolution was a relatively short document. It had 12 "whereas" clauses — stating things like what happened the day of the terrorist attacks, who was affected and how terrorists have been targeted since then — and six resolution paragraphs establishing Sept. 11 as a day of remembrance, extending sympathies to families of victims who died and honoring those who have fought in Afghanistan and Iraq

If you still feel that "traitor" is too strong a term for Kucinich, check out this video of him denouncing the USA on Syrian TV

Jane Fonda was never tried for treason after pulling a similar stunt in North Vietnam, and Kucinich won't be either. In fact, his liberal constituents will keep right on electing him to Congress.
Treason used to be regarded as a serious crime. People were hanged for it. Now it's a convenient way for liberals to get their faces on TV.
