It appears that Senator Lindsey Graham's call for punishment of these lawbreakers has not fallen on deaf ears.

Perhaps an apartment in Baghdad might be more to their liking.

She's a commie bum so of course she'll be happy with three hots and a cot.

[hellinahandcart]

She says she'll go to prison rather than pay.

Fine by me.

[dennisw]

This article is dismaying proof of, "Once an idiot, always an idiot."

[Monty22]

Treason typically carries a far greater penalty.

Good! Hang the bitch!

It will be one less democrat voter we will have to contend with.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Slap her in leg irons.

[Diogenesis]

Maybe she watched only CBS and thought Saddam and Castro were Senators..

Sarasota resident Faith Fippinger, 62, spent three months in Iraq in an effort to prevent U.S. bombing. According to a letter from the Department of the Treasury, she broke the law by crossing the Iraqi border. Fippinger says she will refuse to pay a fine.

Bulldozer!

[Lion Den Dan]

I bet there is room for Flipfinger in Git-mo.

[prairiebreeze]

Lock her up.

Prairie

You know, I am glad to hear about this. This is genuinely good news. Id love to see them garnish her retirement AND send her to prison.

Compare and contrast these commie bums with the 222 brave and loyal sailors who were just sworn in as new American citizens aboard the aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt.

Permanent exile....

[drlevy88]

Why is the Treasury Department involved with this one. Why isn't it State, or Defense? How do they know if she spent dollars at all?

[Timeout]

I wonder if this was her sign (before the U.S. Marines showed up and spoiled all her fun):

[BOBWADE]

Judging from her picture, I am sure that she would not be too upset if imprisoned with a bunch of lonely women.

There is a novel called.."The man without a country" concerning an individual who said he would not follow the rules of the American government during war...

Whereapon he was tried and lost his citizenship and ordered to remain offshore forever on navy ships of the fleet, in view of America as much as possible...but never to set foot in the country again...

People like this deserve a similar fate.
