The Rosenbergs and Alger Hiss wanted to secede? I missed that. I thought they wanted to tear us down in the name of their selfish (Communist) party and their lust for power. To do so, they passed vital secrets to the enemy. THAT is treason.

Sure is. And so is encouraging the enemy and trying to destroy morale on the homefront.
