The American's Creed
I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon the principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

Many years in prison and huge fines so when they eventually get out of prison they won't have enough to live on like most Americans. Maybe they can get a job in the fields too.

After replacing them with their opponents, relegate them to the ranks of political has-beens. Do not ever invite them to be paid guest speakers. Do not buy their memoirs. Ignore them completely. That would drive them nuts, to be excluded from the limelight.
If they seek attention, say oh-hum and go on.

Well, our "president" will probably retire to his ranch in Paraguay; our "vice president" will probably return to work for Haliburton.
Reminds me of the chorus from "The Wake of the Medusa," by The Pogues:
"The casket is empty
Abandon ye all hope
They ran off with the money
And left us with the rope"

By traitors, do you mean people like Harry Reid and GW going against the electorate on amnesty?
Or people like Bill Gates undercutting American engineers? (which by the way, are in ample supply)
Or are you refering to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and worker's unions not standing up for disenfrachised black workers against the onslaught of illegal labor?
Or are you talking about Ivory tower yuppies spewing propaganda about how all Americans (except them) are lazy and stupid?
Or are we talking about recent immigrants whose professed loyalty to this great land is overshadowed by their obvious antipathy for American culture, people, law, values, language, and autonomy?
Or are we talking about Boomer corporate elites fleecing the country and undermining America's long term economic viability because they 'deserve' an extra fleet of yachts?
I can't decide. But me personally, I would either execute them for treason or expel them from the country forever. And no, I am not kidding.
PS> I would include 55Spud on this list.

We have no traitors.
If we have someone we suspect of treason, they should be given a fair trial.
If found guilty, they should be sentenced.
If found innocent, they should be treated politely and in a congratulatory fashion.
If found not guilty, drop it.
Why? Were you planning on skipping due process? Straight to "guilty until proved innocent"?
Seems the trend when discussing our representatives today. Talk about unAmerican.
"Sure, I'm a patriot, I guess. But all those politicians are corrupt. I saw it on the news... ."

I don't know, but I suggest next time we make YOU president and maybe you won't have a double terrorist attack, a war, or a bunch of barely educated, armchair politicians with no advisers or cabinet to think they know better how to run the country.
