"Jeb Bush has joined the list of traitors and idiots.
"




And you have joined the list of people who misuse the word "traitor." When you call elected officials "traitors" you are accusing them of treason. Are you really calling for Jeb Bush to be tried for treason and executed, if found guilty? Are you really doing that?

Words mean things, to quote someone.

You are wrong.

Here is the definition of "traitor"...........

Traitor: One who betrays one's country, a cause, or a trust, especially one who commits treason.

As you see, the word "or" is used--you are 100% wrong when you say calling one a "traitor" is "accusing them of treason".

Jeb Bush, along with his brother and Congress, are traitors to the "cause" (see definition)--the conservative cause. When you align yourself with the Republican party, you are associating yourself with the party of law and order and limited government.

It is as clear as can be they have all been traitors to the conservative cause. To deny so is to deny facts of words spoken and the Office of Management and Budget data tables on spending.
