- Zacktopia, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23Mr Clark appears to have declared war on Western Civilization and the concept of decency in general, the UK specifically. Since the pen is mightier than the sword, that would qualify him as an enemy combatant against his own country.
- Maninthemiddle, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13Regardless of ones support for the war or lack of same, Mr. Clark bridges into amoral and traitorous statements.
Even a maninthemiddle begins to see that many are hoping for destruction of their own country and civilization - and that makes me question their patriotism. - slrepublicans, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11progressives are traitors.

leaving aside the question of whether the item i'm commenting on isn't an equally stark example of what i'm asserting, invite you to do a google search og the terms "progressives are traitors".
here are the first ppage and a half of results. once again, it is all progressive writers on progressive blogs conjuring this notion that republicans are always victimizing them with the word "traitor" without even trying to cite an example oof this happpening in real life. pretty odd for people who want too extend habeus corpus to illegal combatants. haveing conjured this myth they feel perfectly covered to call republicans traitors.
www.pacificviews.org - "is common to hear conservatives express the idea that Democrats and progressives are traitors"
thinkprogress.org - "I really don’t believe liberal/progressives are traitors."
gaypatriot.net - "the Right side is insulting and vitriolic in their characterization of liberals / progressives as “traitors”"
shakespearessister.blogspot.com - " ...stream of lunatics marginalize progressives as traitors,"
commentisfree.guardian.co.uk/melissa_mcewan - "(conservatives) were marginalizing progressives as traitors"
www.dailykos.com - "posters at Free Republic who call progressives traitors"
www.pirateballerina.com - "cash in by portraying Democrats and progressives as traitors and seditionists"
blog.pdamerica.org - "The most credible witness to prove Bush & Cheney are traitors "
so, if we're going to py for it one way or another, why not ACTUALLY call progressives traitors? why hedge our words in cases like the above?
