and just because you have repeatedly bloviated that *I* don't under treason, it seems perhaps you are the one who doesn't, since 'aid and comfort to the enemy" seems to escape you....

It certainly wouldn't help my case if I made things up...too bad I didn't. Were you to count the votes in Florida, Al Gore would have won. Add to that the FACT that Clinton's team held weekly meetings about terrorism and the Bush Administration held absolutely NO MEETING on the matter whatsoever, and, yeah, I am VERY comfortable with my statement.

You also make the stupid assumption that I give a rat's ass what YOU think I look like...but it does beg the question: if I am someone you don't think "looks serious", why do you even bother to respond?

We *both* know. LOTS of right wing peddling there.
