“Where exactly is the threat? He pretty much just called Obama a criminal but didn’t threaten him directly in any way. How many liberals said much worse about President Bush?”

What is the highest punishment for treason?

One would have to infer ‘punishment’ based on their own view if it where implied. He didn’t say such directly. Any inferring would be seen through their own internal screen. You have to be careful adding your own inferred context or meaning to other’s comments, especially in legal cases, only direct comments should be judged.

Was this the wisest tone, probably not, but if people start being declared of guilty because of others inference, we are going down a slippery slope.
