Michael Eric Dyson Calls Impeachment Talk ‘Treasonous’...Supported It in the Bush Years
The National Review's The Corner ^ | July 10, 2014 | Andrew Johnson

MSNBC fill-in host and Georgetown University professor Michael Eric Dyson is no fan of calling for a president’s ouster . . . unless it’s George W. Bush. Although he personally signed his name onto a group looking to “create a political situation where Bush himself is driven from office,” Dyson labeled Sarah Palin’s comments about impeaching President Obama as “treasonous accusations.”

“The president is acutely aware of the dire situation facing the children and their families crossing into the United States, as evidenced by his tireless effort to help them,” he said on Wednesday’s show in defense of President Obama. “The president’s push towards positive and crucial change was met with treasonous accusations.”

During the Bush years, however, Dyson was one of many signees to The World Can’t Wait! organization, which listed a series of grievances against Bush, including “moving each day closer to a theocracy” of a “narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism” and likening the former president to Hitler.

“People look at all this and think of Hitler — and they are right to do so,” the group says in the “About” section on its website. “The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a fascist way, and for generations to come. We must act now; the future is in the balance.”

In addition to Dyson, the organization’s supporters include other celebrity activists, such as Cornel West and Susan Sarandon. It also includes several lawmakers, among them Democratic representatives John Conyers of Michigan, Bobby Rush of Illinois, and Maxine Waters of California, as well as other former legislators, such as Senator Mark Gravel of Alaska and Representative Cynthia McKinney of Georgia.

never heard of this commentator but obviously either a shill for the IslamoNazi moles in WashDC or else completely divorced from reality (a nut case that should be locked up for effetive treatment or at least protective care)

There is nothing "treasonous" about a Constitutional process.

I suppose it is also "treasonous" to vote for a non-Democrat?

He's probably the biggest white hating racist on
the planet, and of course Georgetown employs him.

These people always get away with their contradictions. Remember Chris Mathews going nuts over Rush calling the Obama administration a “regime”? Though he had said the same thing about Bush. Nobody called him on it to his face.

Isn’t Georgetown the place which let O cover up its crucifixes to protect O from any identification with Christianity?

He obviously has no idea what Treason is. Furthermore, Impeachment is provided for in the Constitution - oh wait - liberals HATE the Constitution unless they can twist it to their purposes.

Exactly correct. This shows that the looney tune left equates Obama with the Constitution. Apparently they hated GWB because he was not, their king. Not because he over stepped his authority. Supporting a king over a constitution is treasonous. And every Obama loving progressive and every wetback loving GOP elite is guilty of it.

Obama is not black. He came out of a white woman's womb. Do not blame blacks for the abomination that has been forced upon them.

Indeed. Other then for the very slightest
verneer of pretense for necessary political cover, he’s demonstrated an intense hatred of just about anything Christian, catholic, or Jewish. Line an allergic reaction really

He’d have to beat out Hussein, his “wife” Michelle, and Eric Holder for that honor.

I wonder what Georgetown University professor Michael Eric Dyson thought of the book (play?) that called for President Bush’s assassination? I’m sure that was a Freedom of Speech issue...
