White House Petition to Charge ‘Treasonous’ Senators for Iran Letter Breaks 100,000 Signers in One
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 3/10/15 | Kristinn Taylor

A petition posted to the White House’s ‘We the People’ do it yourself petition site on Monday calls for prosecution under the Logan Act of the forty-seven U.S. senators who signed a letter initiated by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) to the Iranian government about the negotiations for a nuclear deal between the Islamist state sponsor of terrorism and President Barack Obama.

The petition accuses the senators of having committed a “treasonous offense” and violating the Logan Act which prohibits U.S. citizens from conducting unauthorized negotiations with foreign powers.

Signers of the petition rocketed it past the 100,000 minimum signers set by the Obama administration to receive a response from the White House in just one day. The petition was created by “C.H.” of Bogata, New Jersey on Monday the same day the letter was released and by late Tuesday evening it had well over 118,000 signatures. In a one-hour period Tuesday night over seven thousand signatures were added to the petition.

The text of the petition reads:

“WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:

“File charges against the 47 U.S. Senators in violation of The Logan Act in attempting to undermine a nuclear agreement.

Was the comment “After I get re-elected I will have more flexibility” an authorized communication with a foreign power?

Refer every signature on the list to Sec State of the appropriate state to check their voter registrations. Plenty to purge and some worth filing charges.

Don't these responses come under the "be careful what you wish for" category ?

Who gives a shit where the signatures come from ... or even if the petition even exists .... what matters is THIS may be the prelude to Martial Law

obama hits the TV, gonn'a DO something about these men ... and I want to be perfectly clear ... they are not traitors ...

But the word has already been introduced BY the president so the president can't be accused of being a traitor ... which he really is and HAS been, but the net was closing around him and THIS SOOOOO convenient

locked and loaded

The 47 Senators did not negotiate with Iran. They simply told Iran the truth about the US government structure.

The only reason they're overreacting like this is because they know Obama actually is guilty of treason.

Commie propaganda 101: Accuse your opponent of whatever you are doing.
