Panetta: Trump Accused the President of Treason

Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” former Obama administration Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is “accusing the president of the United States of treason and collaborating with the enemy.”

Panetta said, “Well, I have to tell you in 50 years of public life, I have never experienced a major party candidate making the accusations and raising the innuendos that Donald Trump raised, particularly at this moment of crisis. My experience is when this country has been attacked, this country comes together and unifies and builds a consensus about how we protect ourselves in the future. What Trump is doing is the exact opposite.”

Panetta: “My experience is when this country has been attacked, this country comes together and unifies and builds a consensus about how we protect ourselves in the future. “

There has not been one incident since 2009 that Obama hasn’t come out immediately, while blood was still at the murder site, and talked about gun control. He’s faulted the GOP and NRA at every turn. He doesn’t have “clean hands,” not by a country mile.

And in those same 50 years no one has ever seen a president whose every action results in increasing the resources and number of an implacable enemy. The actions of the president defy logic and reason UNLESS you consider Treason. As Sherlock Holmes observed:Eliminate the impossible and whatever you have left however unlikely is the truth...

That spectre alone gives most of the persons in high positions in the Democrat hierarchy the cold robbies in the middle of the night, and makes them all the more desperate during waking hours.

When Warren G. Harding died just before the Teapot Dome scandal broke, and Calvin Coolidge took over, the surviving co-conspirators were pursued until finally the one misstep by Secretary of the Interior Albert Bacon Fall revealed the graft which he had received for his part, and the prosecution was able to mete out justice.

As the case was building, Coolidge said “If there has been any crime, it must be prosecuted — no one will be shielded for any party, political or other reasons... if there is any guilt, it will be punished, if there is any civil liability, it will be enforced, if there has been any fraud, it will be revealed; if there are any contracts which are illegal, they will be cancelled. Every law will be enforced and every right of the people and the government will be protected.”

Coolidge also remarked at the time to Herbert Hoover, then his Secretary of Commerce, “There are three purgatories to which people can be consigned: to be damned by one’s fellows, to be damned by the courts or to be damned in the next world. I want these men to get all three — without probation.”

In this climate it’s an absolute miracle to have a candidate that actually says the truth. Yes, it’s an absolute miracle!

Be on your guard against false prophets, men who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but are ravenous wolves within.

You will know them by the fruit they yield. Can grapes be plucked from briers, or figs from thistles?

So, indeed, any sound tree will bear good fruit, while any tree that is withered will bear fruit that is worthless;
that worthless fruit should come from a sound tree, or good fruit from a withered tree, is impossible.

Any tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire.

I say therefore, it is by their fruit that you will know them.

The kingdom of heaven will not give entrance to every man who calls me Master, Master; only to the man that does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

There are many who will say to me, when that day comes, Master, Master, was it not in thy name we prophesied? Was it not in thy name that we performed many miracles?

Whereupon I will tell them openly, You were never friends of mine; depart from me, you that traffic in wrong-doing.

Sorry Leon. We don’t appreciate you insulting our intelligence by trying to blow smoke up our @$$.

We’re immune to the lies of big media as well.

I don’t know if what you’re saying is called misinformation or disinformation, but nice try anyway.

Why is it so beyond the pale to think that a treasonous president could be elected? Venezuela elected Hugo Chavez.

Personally, l think it’s out there.

Libya is the key.

Off khadafi to control the weapons & oil

9/11 "truthers" willingly made accusations that Bush and Cheney were involved with 9/11. I'm sure we can find many many statements from leading politicians accusing Reagan of many nefarious things as well.

I couldn’t believe it but Juan McCain actually came out and did the same thing himself today saying that Obama is to blame for the attacks.
