Yep, what people are talking about really is sedition, not treason.

Fortunately, the Sedition Act of 1818 was repealed in 1921.

John F. Kerry is a serial career traitor, having adhered to our enemies from Vietnam to Nicaragua to the terrorist leaders he claims to have met in a New York restaurant, giving them aid and comfort.

Jay Rockefeller recently confessed to treason on national television. He committed the crime by sharing intelligence information with our enemies the Syrians--Baathists like Saddam Hussein--before we ousted the Butcher of Baghdad.

Michael Moore committed treason by cooperating with the Hezbollah terrorist organization, our enemies, giving them aid and comfort in his quest to distribute his libelous sedition (enemy propaganda) film.

Those actions are treason. Here is sedition:

Jack Murtha demands that our troops surrender and praises the enemy. Ted Kennedy wishes our troops to die at the hands of the terrorists. Howard Dean advocates a victory for the terrorists. Sedition is a very serious crime, a felony, but falls short of treason because it does not involve actual "adherence" (contact, visitation, etc.) with the enemy but nevertheless gives aid and comfort through words that rally enemy forces against our troops.
