He is a moron and a traitor - no amount of "backpedaling" could change that.

Excuse my stupidity but the first time I saw McDermott, I thought he was a very bloated Jimmy Carter.

I perhaps overstated my case

Does that equate to I did not have sex with that Dictator, Mr, Hussein

Vance called McDermott and state Democrats an embarrassment.
That's all very well and good Vance, but how about mustering some support to get rid of this guy?

"Democrats defended McDermott"

Bwahhaaahaaaahaaa!

Keep it up boys. Consort with the enemy, defend his defenders, and keep telling the American people why that is O.K.

Moral relativism comes home to roost, and they can't even figure out its a problem. Buh Bye.

Literally, nobody runs against McDermott because Seattlites agree with him 89% to 11% every time. He is not a shame to the communists, socialists, and eco-wackos who run that town. Take it from a refugee.

Chris Vance has his own problems, but not running candidates against McIdiot is not one of them.

Thanks for the link - a copy of my letter to him.

"I can't believe a representative of our great country could commit such an act of treason. You should resign for your dispicable remarks. Maybe you should go over there to live. You are a disgrace to this country."

Isn't that one of the signs of the apocalypse?

I have read this entire article and the word "treason" appears nowhere. I wish the administration, the media, and federal law enforcement would learn this word. It is a good word. It accurately describes the crime these traitors have committed, on international television no less! They should have been taken into custody at the airport immediately upon their return to the United States. I am not a lawyer, but it seems to me that high treason during wartime carries some penalties that are a little on the harsh side. Once again, my theory has been proven: A VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT, for anything other than "guilty of all charges", IS AN ACT OF TREASON, yes, TREASON!!!! Barbra Striesand presented additional proof this past weekend that this is true.
