Sarge, you are treading the edges of sedition. When you sign up, you swear to uphold the Constitution and obey all lawful orders. I have yet to see any of the teabaggers that were intelligent enough to know what an unlawful order consisted of.
Sounds to me like the Oathkeepers are simply another group that likes to hide the nature of Treason under a name.
That's because you don't have a clue about the nature of treason. Read the constitution, the definition is rather narrow. Either go to war against the nation or give aid and comfort to enemies (meaning those with whom the US is at war)
Nothing else is treason, not even someone falsifying records to get into a political office for which they are unqualified.
birther!
I never mentioned Obama. I simply used that particular example because everyone associates it with el Presidente. OF course if it ever were shown that Obama is working for a foreign power to the detriment of the US, then, since we are involved in an ongoing occupation tantamount to war and since Obama's mismanagement of the military would then be deliberate, we would want to convict him of treason for aiding the enemy. Sadly, even that would be impossible from a strict reading of the constitution - aiding means more than mismanaging US assets.
