We throw that treason word around like a father-son game of catch here at Free Republic. It has a very high bar.

Confederate President Jefferson Davis would say:

We feel that our cause is just and holy; we protest solemnly in the face of mankind that we desire peace at any sacrifice save that of honour and independence; we ask no conquest, no aggrandizement, no concession of any kind from the States with which we were lately confederated; all we ask is to be let alone; that those who never held power over us shall not now attempt our subjugation by arms.”

No treasonous words or actions in that.

The Constitution confines the crime of treason to two species; First, the levying of war against the United States; and Secondly, adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

i.e. What Democrats do EVERY DAY.
