Time’s Klein: Beck, Palin Potentially Committing Sedition against U.S. Government
Newsbusters ^ | April 18, 2010 | Jeff Poor

Liberals are all too often eager to charge conservative personalities of using hyperbole to gain a political advantage, especially when it contradicts their world view - whether it's suggesting the Obama administration is taking the country down the path of socialism, fascism or any other -ism.

However, it could be argued there's a different set of standards for those same people when they want to make strong charges. On NBC's April 18 "The Chris Matthews Show," Time columnist Joe Klein all but accused former GOP vice-presidential nominee and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, along with Fox News host Glenn Beck of sedition.

"I did a little bit of research just before this show - it's on this little napkin here. I looked up the definition of sedition which is conduct or language inciting rebellion against the authority of the state. And a lot of these statements, especially the ones coming from people like Glenn Beck and to a certain extent Sarah Palin, rub right up close to being seditious."

First of all who gives a rats ass what the Times says ? It’s a propaganda rag .
This author better be careful with sedition accusations.Many of his ultra liberal friends are really in that boat.Could work both ways there .

TIME is so last decade.

TIME is so Carter-era 1970s. They should rename it "TIME'S UP."

Then I would say that the MSM is party to treason to the Constitution.

King George, Gobbels, and the Soviet Pravda would be proud of their stance and compliance / complicity with what the dems are doing to the Constitution.

Two are two things going on here and one thing is certainly that,” Klein said. “One thing is he is African-American, but that his name is Barack Hussein Obama.
The other we’ve had a very scary economic crisis. And when people get scared, they get defensive and they get a little crazy.”

Klein is obviously very frightened and paranoid .
Poor thing.
And Barry is not African American-he’s half Whitey.
If anyone is scared , defensive and a little crazy-it’s Joe Klein.
Hey Joe-Boo!!!
Hope you didn’t wet yourself.

Like Stalin and his thugs, it is time to for the O-team to start arresting the opposition before November elections, wait for the false-flag terrorist event.

So, Congress has re-passed the old Sedition Act from World War I?

Will liberals ever stop using the race card? Besides, as a white guy, why should I have problem with Obama from a race standpoint? He’s only the 44th white President of the United States.

There’s a lot ot flippant comments about this. It’s nothing to be flippant about. It’s what these people think, not just this journalist but the entire liberal establishment. Who by the way happens to be in power and controls most of the news media. Treat these threats to democracy seriously and act accordingly.

Klein is a chief propagandist for the Kenyan’s communist coup.
His efforts to undermine the growing opposition to the Kenyan is failing. Panic is setting in.

Once the Kenyan starts silencing his opponents, he’ll strengthen our that he is a communist.

Sedition, eh?

I’ll raise you...

I thought Obama’s remark last week “we are a superpower still, whether we like it or not” was very nearly TREASONOUS.
