Peril to people exists in all forms from out of control vehicles to those who have no regard for other persons when they commit crimes or engage in behavior that can cause harm, though the thought may not be to cause any harm. Seldom do people give any thought to the behavior that can imperil a nation. Yet our nation stands in peril caused by an out of control Congress composed of liberal Democrats and spineless Republicans. The Democrats want to diminish the President in every way politically conceivable, and the weenie Republicans can’t figure out where in the politically correct environment they fit.  Since they can’t stand up for the President, they are no better than the liberals and help put the nation in peril.

Representative John Murtha roared about out of control military personnel killing innocent civilians in Iraq before he had any facts. Subsequent investigation revealed the truth and the fact that Murtha is nothing more than big mouthed, small brained liberal Democrat politician. None of what Murtha said was anywhere close to the truth. Then Murtha  voted to pull the troops from Iraq in an ill advised House vote.

To make the whole sordid affair worse, the majority leader of the Senate, Harry Reid said on April 19, 2007: "I believe ... that this war is lost, and this surge is not accomplishing anything, as is shown by the extreme violence in Iraq this week," This coming from a leader of the crowd that voted to go to war to take out Saddam Hussein and hopefully stop more attacks on us as happened on September 11, 2001. Politician after politician is railing against the war which so far has stopped more attacks here, though the loony goons in Congress can’t see the connection. They are so outraged at the president that they would rather gouge out their own eyes than look at the truth.  

There is precedent for their behavior which can be found in the Bible. In Matthew 26:14-16 we find: Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, 15 said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. 16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.  The word used here is betray and that made Judas a traitor. The definition of traitor is a betrayer: somebody who is disloyal or treacherous. Certainly Judas fit the definition and so do those in Congress who are behaving the same as Murtha and Reid. They are giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

When Reid said the war is lost he was telling the military their work is futile. What kind of a man will so state about the men and women protecting this nation? The man and his ilk are so full of political hate toward the President that they don’t care what happens as long as they pillory the President. They take umbrage if anyone even hints they are unpatriotic, but what else can they be other than unpatriotic when they make uncalled statements about our nation’s military and their effort to defend us? If the shoe fits, wear it and lace it up tight boys and girls.

The Democrats and even limp Republicans threaten to stop funding for the troops. Is that not an act of betrayal? Is that not in effect engaging in behavior that gives aid and comfort to the enemy as outlined in the Constitution, Article III, Section 3?

Our nation is in a dangerous situation when hatred for a President is so great that the military and the people are placed in jeopardy. Again, how can that not be unpatriotic when those who hold office imperil their nation of people, and also themselves? Those who are behaving in ways that increase the danger to us need to be run out of office at the next election.      In Sorting It Out, can the voters rise above partisan party politics and cast their votes for those who will honor and defend the efforts against the enemy and stop the traitor’s behavior?
