Could one of you legal, eagle persons answer a question for me???
Is it necessary for a formal declaration of war, I mean by Congress, for a person or persons to be charged with aiding the enemy?
Could that be the reason these people get away with this stuff? Is it a legal loophole of some sort?
Thanks,

Lots of company here...just caught up with this news...Thanks for the PING!
Thanks for the ping! Interesting thread. I do see the Dean "go honest" working fabulously in exposing, much more clearly, less "first-amendment-chimera'd" activism by the left. About darned time. But it does require a line be drawn clearly by those who'd like to see truth made clear.
Every time I hear the name Code Pink, I get the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies stuck in my head. Any ideas why?
Who is Ron the schmuck?
It (colde plink) conjures of images of pink tutus. EWWWWW!
He happens to be on sometimes when I am sitting down to dinner, and I manage to watch him for five minutes to see how the insane people are seeing the news. Don't worry about your mix-up, he's not THAT different from Chrissy, truth be told--Chrissy just comes off more normal. Olberman is one of those so-awful-I-gotta-see things that seem to be taking over TV; once your curiosity is passed, off he goes.
As for the 9-11 widow, I was squirming listening to her completely distort the point of the Rove appearance. I've got tons of sympathy for those whose loved ones died in 9-11 but I don't feel the need to get their permission to have an opinion about how to properly respond to the attacks.
I really don't think she knows what the heck she's talking about. These guys are not fighting for their family's or for the Iraqi people. They may be fighting for independence from the U.S., but it would be their evil, pro-Saddam or Islamofascist independence, under their evil rule, and woe to the Iraqi people if they take over. Now that we're over there (whatever the real reason for that is), we owe it to the Iraqi people to turn these vermin into a bad memory, and THEN we leave, not now. If I were in charge, I wouldn't even bother capturing these animals; if they were out of uniform, they would die swiftly, a la WWII.
The hippie enablers of these scum should really engage their brains before shooting off their mouths.
Can we please have Civil War II now?
THE LAST REBEL
"From Ward Churchill straight up the line to Dick Durbin, people giving aid and comfort to our mortal enemies should be looking out at the world from between steel bars. Why isn't this happening? Who and where would such prosecutions originate?"
what ever happened to the "militias"?
or Hal Holbrook and the boyzz of Magnum Force?
What is so ludicrous about her "I can't judge anyone who is protecting their loved ones" comment is she has no problem judging and condemning the American response to mass-murdering terror. There were a lot of loved ones lost in New York and Washington D.C., but they don't count in her assessment, apparently.
Cheap shot, but nothing new from you on that border subject. I'll bet these folks that went to Turkey would support your attitude re the US borders.
the "militias" to which I referred were specifically uninvited (and did not show up) to the event on the Messican border that you object to. But you already knew that.
Amen to your post---I think Olberman is so bitter about his TV career, tanking at every turn, that he has decided to become the "Art Bell" of TV....all conspiracy, no facts...
Don't feel too uncomfortable about some of the 9/11 widows, they even travelled with Kerry's campaign last year, and were "eating up" the attention...this is much more about fame and politics, and not much about grief at this point.
I think these traitors are funning free because, legally, they can't be charged unless we are in a war that has been declared in Congress. I'm not a lawyer of a law scholar, but I think that is the problem in bringing these pieces of clinton to justice.
I hope the President hits a home run tonight in his speech. He really needs to get his message out there to counter the 5th column media elites.
BTW, thank you for your service.
As for Olberman, he certainly comes across as a bitter, nasty jerk. I really enjoyed him laying into Tom Cruise's criticisms of psychiatry; he went on about how he's been in therapy himself since '98, and it never seemed to occur to him that maybe, just maybe, that meant he wasn't quite objective enough to be discussing the story. Cruise could have been refuted, but the segment, with a bubblehead shrink and Olberman praising therapy and prescription drugs, was simply THEIR subjective point of view on psychiatry, as opposed to Cruise's. Neither of them seemed to grasp the irony, or admit the truth, that psychotherapy is as much an art as a science.
