From a much longer post on another thread: Feinstein’s use of the word ‘treason,’ is strategic vs. Judge Napalitano calling him a ‘patriot & hero.’ Feinstein’s introduction of the charged word treason into the public vernacular is a signal to the 0bama organized base. I am not so sure Snowden is just such the hero, I think upon further reflection, he is a ‘useful idiot,’ and will simply be made to disappear. Feinstein’s use of the word ‘treason,’ also sets up the division between those who are considered loyal to the state, ie)patriotic to pay taxes vs. those loyal to the Constitution. While we have seen the divisive nature of the regime over the past few years and scoffed at the DHS designations of extremists, the laughing needs to stop. To be labeled an extremist is to be called a traitor to the state. So what does it mean to be a traitor? This is where the NDAA of 2012 comes back to haunt us. Well, under the NDAA all it takes is to commit a “belligerent” act. Who defines what that is? The President of the United States. http://www.belligerentact.org/ Congress is taking up the issue of Snowden today. Will he be deemed a whistleblower or traitor. Feinstein has already tipped their hand. The argument is if by revealing what the NSA is doing did Snowden commit a ‘belligerent act?’ Did he compromise the security of the United States? If the President says he did...then he is an enemy of the state and subject to the provisions under the NDAA.

Traitor of the letter of the law, whether it be Obama’s whim or the misinterpretation of a slimy prosecutor and activist judge, is much, much different than a traitor to the spirit of the US Constitution. Anyone who hasn’t figured out that our government is our enemy is delusional.

As observed from reading the earlier threads on this topic, Feinstein has her fans on this forum [they masquerade as “conservatives” here], they too utter the word “treason”, and then their owner,the one and only Senator from California, who daily shreds the Constitution, without a peep of desent from her puppets affirms their action.

Insightful post. And scary, because the NDAA DOES allow stuff to happen - perhaps even a drone assassination - to somebody who the government classifies as “belligerent”.

A parable: A little boy is supposed to be praying with his eyes closed. He opens his eyes in the middle of it and notices that the pastor is raping one of the girls. He screams and tells everybody what he saw, so the pastor has the boy thrown in jail for having his eyes open during the prayer. And the whole congregation goes along with it, including the girl who was being raped.

(And this isn’t far-flung at all because the IRS wanted to dictate what groups can say in their PRAYERS = and yet they let go the son of Bin Laden when he was caught at the finish line of the Boston marathon. After the FBI had searched his apartment and knew who he was, somebody removed the “known terrorist” classification, Michelle Obama visited him in person, and he was very quickly removed from the country so law enforcement couldn’t do anything about it. Whistleblowers in the FBI and/or CIA risked 20 years in prison to tell 10 members of Congress and Glenn Beck what had happened, and provide documentation of it. Beck provided the documentation to all the media, and NOT ONE editor would allow the reporters’ articles about it to be published.

They are ALL taking part in the rape, and they will all try to destroy the little boy who had his eyes open during the prayer to tell what is going on.
