It turns out, if you are an American soldier captured by the Taliban, conservative media types have no problem - and actively encourage your captors - if you are executed. Presumably this would likely involve having your head lopped off with a Ginsu knife.
Granted, Ralph Peters - who is STILL pissed off he wrote a half dozen books on a Russian war in Europe that never happened - swears this particular soldier deserted, even though he has no real proof of this. Even so, get the soldier back, try him in a military court, and send him to Leavenworth if guilty.
They used to say anti-war lefties were traitors for not wanting our troops in Iraq. Now, conservatives actually wish for our soldier's murder if they are captured by our enemies. And this ass clown was actually in the military, unlike so many armchair generals in the GOP.
If that isn't treason, I'm not sure what is, folks.
Meanwhile, media clown and hatemonger Randall Terry is promising violent domestic terrorism if Sonia Sotomayor is confirmed to the Supreme Court.
Wait a minute asswipe. You don't have to like the lady - as I certainly loathe Roberts, Scalia, Alito, and Thomas - but each of them went through a confirmation hearing and were voted by the Senate - as the Constitution proscribes.
So basically, we have one Rethug arguing for the execution of a soldier held by our enemies in a combat zone and another calling for terrorism in our borders if the Constitutional confirmation process is followed.
And all the airtime on FAUXNews to argue for what is treason in about every sense of the word.
