...After Supporter Says President ‘Should be tried for treason’
The Obama campaign slammed Mitt Romney Monday for not confronting a supporter who said during a town hall event in Cleveland that the president “should be tried for treason.”
“We have a president right now that is operating outside the structure of our Constitution,” a woman said during a question-and-answer session. “And I want to know — yeah, I do agree he should be tried for treason — but I want to know what you would be able to do to restore balance between the three branches of government and what you are going to be able to do to restore our Constitution in this country.”
Romney, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, ignored the treason comment and answered her question.
“Well, as I’m sure you do, I happen to believe the Constitution was not just brilliant but probably inspired,” he said. “I happen to believe the same thing about the Declaration of Independence. I would respect the different branches of government if I am fortunate enough to become president.”

“Time after time in this campaign, Mitt Romney has had the opportunity to show that he has the fortitude to stand up to hateful and over-the-line rhetoric and time after time, he has failed to do so,” campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith said in a statement. “If this is the ‘leadership’ he has shown on the campaign trail, what can the American people expect of him as commander-in-chief?”
Romney repeated his position shortly after the event during an interview on CNN but rejected the notion that he had a responsibility to take on the audience member.
“I don’t correct all of the questions that get asked of me.” Romney said.

He’s not a traitor, he’s an impostor.
He is operating outside the Constitution. It is a documented fact, Here is an example: http://naturalresources.house.gov/UploadedFiles/ManninaTestimony03.22.12.pdf

I saw an article today where somebody wants to blacklist the word “blacklist.”
Thanks for sharing the article! Frankly I hope they just keep on micro managing everything we eat, say, buy, have, do, etc. because, frankly I am beyond sick of being treated like an imbicile. I can’t possibly be in the minority either. Keep it comin’ dems, it’ll make 2010 pale by comparison.

Shepard is a HACK as an artist. He swipes MOST of his source materials. Some of it from Communist and even NAZI propaganda.
Run it through a simple filter in a graphics program, add a post-modern bit of agit-prop. Then press “print” and ask your socialist followers to bestow large amounts of cash on you for “fighting the system, man!”.
Romney said that? Sounds more like what Newt would say...
‘’He betrayed this country!’’ Mr. Gore shouted into the microphone at a rally of Tennessee Democrats here in a stuffy hotel ballroom. ‘’He played on our fears. He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place.’’
Senator Obamas response:
Recruit that woman now!
Haven't we been looking for vice-presidential material?
MR handled it fine, McCain would of been crying about this for the next few weeks
There’s plenty there for “high crimes and misdemeanors”, at least. I’d bet $10 that there’s a stack of 0bummer felonies 4ft high, piled single-sheet. Problem is that both Romney’s & Congress’ souls are owned, lock, stock and barrel by the *criminal puppeteers*, who can’t be touched and who run everything. No, I’m not a conspiracy theorist; just a realist who’s seen too much since (volunteer) working for Nixon-Lodge in ‘59.
Romney said that?
Read it again...
Disappointing.
Looks like a nerve was hit with President Thin-Skinned. Anyone who releases detainees to the enemy for a phony “peace deal” and hob nobs with Code Pinko (among other things) is a traitor in my book and not worthy to be CIC, let alone tie the bootlaces, of our military.
FUBO. And the squatch you rode in on.
I can’t blame the Obama folks for thinking that. McCain was masterful at slapping conservatives down. Peerless. If I were Romney, I’d tell Obama to go get McCain on the campaign trail to defend him again.
Romney should just follow Obama’s line when he said he was sympathizing with the Occupy movement because these were grass root young Americans who were frustrated with the system.
So what are the Constitutionalists who are angered over the courts and Congresses lack of redress of Obama’s usurpation of the presidency?
