Remember the good old dayswhen dissent was patriotic? Fuggedaboutit. Dissent isn't merely unpatriotic now. It's downright treasonous. Just ask Paul Krugman.
If, like virtually all House Republicans and a handful of Dems, you don't agree with the likes of Henry Waxman on the need to take radical measures on the climate, you're guilty of . . . "a form of treason." Treason against the planet, to be precise.
That was Krugman's formulation in his New York Times column of today, Betraying The Planet.
Krugman has obviously drunk deep from the carafe of Al Gore Kool-Aid, writing:

Are you starting to get it?
Leftists want to EXTERMINATE, not just incarcerate, their ideological opponents.
They use the power of the state to do so, historically, whenever they get into power.
If we are seceding sovereignty. This law can be overturned by 10th amendment rights! Same law used to defend marijuana.
I think they need to stop all this pussyfooting around and send their thugs after us right now.
This sham needs to end.
Bring it on
Yeah, I get it.
It’s still shocking to see this happening in the US.
Their taxes are going to get paid in lead, not silver.
Thanks! You understand a lot more than the ‘conservative’ talk show hosts who are harping on the job losses. While those are important, the most important thing about this bill is that it cedes sovereignty to the UN. That is what people should be shouting from the streets, and it should make people take a second look at Honduras, they seem to know exactly what to do with a president who disdains their constitution.
(Lower case name to show disrespect and contempt for the commie apparatchik.)
“Leftists want to EXTERMINATE, not just incarcerate, their ideological opponents.”
And because they seek power for it’s own end and not the greater good, they must exterminate the independent and prosperous middle class. It happens everywhere the marxists take power.
People say marxism has failed everywhere it’s been tried. I disagree. I think that by it’s own yardstick of being a means of cementing absolute political and economic control over a population by enslavement and impoverishment, it’s always been wildly successful.
On another thread this morning one of the posters described cap-n-traders as high priests selling indulgences against future CO2 related sins.
Krugman Accuses Republicans Of 'A Form Of Treason'
'Treason against the planet, to be precise.'
This guy needs 'help'.
"Hello everyone."
"My name is Paul."
"I'm a Moonbat."
"An Insane Leftist." (Hello Paul. Nice to see you at our meeting.
You'll like 'Insane Leftists Anonymous')
The NY Slimes should hold the meetings in their building.
They could fill two floors with the Insane Moonbat Leftists who wotk there, and it would save everyone some gas and travel time to Bellevue Hospital.
What, the continued sell-out of science and plain old common sense, in favor of political correctness run rampant? This has been building for twenty years, at least.
Incarceration hell, if you check out HuffPo or the Guardian comments pages, there are thousands of people who’d have no problem with witch-burnings.
“I’m sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we’re Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration.”
Hillary Clinton
And the scary thing, if you go to the NYT page and read the comments, EVERYONE agrees with him! (This is the NYT, I know). But when you live in a conservative area where EVERYONE knows this stuff if a bunch of made up nonsense, it is mind boggling that people up there actually believe in it (like a religion) and agree with this guy! We can convince ourselves its just the loony politicians who want to use this for their communist agenda,but it is troubling to realize there are that many people who actually believe that anyone who opposes cap & trade is treasonous! That is why the topic of secession is becoming so popular. The people in this country are coming from such opposing worldviews that its like the other side is from a different planet, I don’t see how we can ever live peacably together again!
There can be no such "crime".

Use treason in a Sentence
noun 1. the offense of acting to overthrow one's government or to harm or kill its sovereign.
2. a violation of allegiance to one's sovereign or to one's state.
3. the betrayal of a trust or confidence; breach of faith; treachery.
Based on the Random House Dictionary
Overthrow "the planet"? Mixed metaphor. It's more on par with child abuse (neglect, harm, etc).
The Greenie Weenies DO engage openly in sedition (overthrow of our government) and treason (betrayal of America to partner with global socialist Greens).
*traitorous bttt*
Krugman would have fit in well during the early years of the Soviet Union when western leftists journeyed there and often times returned singing the praises of socialism and Stalin.
