    I agree. Would you also agree that the media following around the same 20 Code Pink whackos during Bush' Presidency wasn't news either? Yetthere it was night after night.

    I was there during Bush, and I don't recall saturation coverage of Code Pink -- or much coverage of them at all, for that matter. Heck, the general reputation of Code Pink wasn't particularly positive either, IMO. So I'm not sure what your point is.

    Does the media often focus on the inconsequential? Yes. Does that mean we have to do so on this board? No.

    The Texas petition has almost 30,000 signatures.

    Does that make it consequential? No.

    Before the Internet, it took serious numbers to gain national attention. Now you just need two doofuses and a video camera.

    In some ways, that's good. In a lot of substantive ways, it's not. The signal-to-noise ratio these days is terrible.

    They're not proposing any kind of government. They're whining.

    Most likely because this is how some conservatives conduct themselves as a reaction to election losses.

    There isn't going to be secession. But there will be a serious deterioration in race relations between white people and Afro types.

    Shhh... I'm trying to coax Yosh out of the bubble. We had one good exchange a little while back where he discovered our views aren't as far apart as he thought. I think he's salvageable, if he can let go of some knee-jerk assumptions and take his outrage button off of DefCon1.

    And some are proposing that they be stripped of their citizenship for simply adding a signature to a petition.

    And neither is to be taken seriously.

    Think how much happier everyone would be if we weren't going around *looking* for idiots to get outraged at?

    Why, we might even be able to ignore the stupid people and focus on important issues!

    Perhaps. We just don't know.

    No one is accusing you of wanting to rob people's rights away. I think you are incapable of admitting
    things like voter fraud when presented with evidence, but i don't see you as being that uncivil.

    I wouldn't say that I'm outraged.

    It's certain that the president can't just take people's citizenship away though Obama has never let little technicalities, like the law, stop him before.
    If he decides he doesn't want to uphold the law, like the Defense of Marriage Act, he doesn't (though he is legally bound to).
    If he decides he doesn't want to obey the Welfare Reform Act from the Clinton era, he doesn't.
    He let's individual states decide for themselves what constitutes "work", which completely ignores the whole point of the law (to codify specifically mentioned requirements into law that require welfare recipients to achieve in order to collect welfare).

    Good Idea, Traitors should be thrown out, stick your freedom of speech, preaching the destruction of the Nation is not protected, go somewhere else and express your Treasonous thoughts and see how it works out for ya.

    Actually you are the traitor because you don't seem to appreciate that free speech is protected by the constitution and you advocate stripping others of their rights because you don't like them.

    Might I suggest moving to China, Cuba or some other nation where dissent is outlawed. You will be much happier and more at home there. Tell it to Hillary, slick.

    Cons don't pay taxes. They would actually have to stop whining on the internet and get a job to do that.

    You know far right wing nuts advocate treason charges against Obama because he is undoubtedly using redistributionist policies to turn this nation into a socialist clone of Denmark or France.
    Treason is in the eye of the beholder and there is far more to recommend
    the right wing view of things, because this petition has absolutely NO force of law behind it, whereas Obama is actually putting his traitorous policies into effect (they would tell you). So try to think about that.

    And you are even less bright because I'm not backing this petition and said so in one of the very first posts in this thread.
    Wise up, slick.

    If you have a point why not make it?
    By the way, I mean a point with some merit in it.
    Show me in the title where I said ALL Leftists Demand President Strip Dissenters of Citizenship and Deport Them.

    Boy, you leftists are real sharpies!

    You don't know the difference between treason and sedition do you? Where did you go to school?

    Advocating the destruction of the US is sedition, not treason. There's no penalty for sedition. It's been tried twice before and struck down.

    Treason on the other hand requires an overt act of commission. We are talking on a message board for chrissakes. That's not an overt act. It's free speech of the political variety. Btw, screw the US for abandoning its troops is Afghanistan.
