Posted, a traitors list!

[icymist]

I heard about this web site while driving to work last night, listening to Erin Hart. She said it has a 'traitors list'. Sure enough, there it is!

What's next? Blackballing?

[Renew Deal]

1. That's real picture of Sharpton

And Clark looks good in a space suit.

[boobooday]

2. Howard Stern is a new addition

I don't think I'd seen him there before.

I'm still sad I haven't made it to the Traitor's List (TM) yet.

12. You can, BUT you have to give them money.

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

30. It appears that only liberals pay money to be on the Traitor List (TM)

I'm guessing this because there's soooo many common people listed on the Patriot List (TM), that Conservatives don't have to pay?

I just checked and when someone wants to add an 'Honorary Patriot (TM)' all they ask for is an email!

[teach1st]

3. I would be honored to be included on that list...

...what kind of madness makes folks think such a list which includes so many great Americans is bad thing? It speaks volumes about the mindset of the right.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

4. What an INTERESTING definition of treason!

"Treason: Violation of allegiance toward one's country or sovereign,..."

Gee, I didn't know Bob Dole was a traitor. Not to mention Ken Starr and his Impeachment Gang. And whan did the USA become a monarchy?

[ET Awful]

16. I'm going to have to guess that. . .

they never actually read the Constitution.

Section 3. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court.

They really should read it sometime :)

[icymist]

17. I think they're illiterate!

"Is our children learning yet?" -actual quote from the Texas Homegrown Dope!

[Bromd]

21. First the Administration should

First the Administration would have to read section 3 as well. Not like that is a surprise since Bush admitted on national television that he doesn't read newspapers since they're full of opinion.


Here are a few other opinion pieces that I'm sure he's unfamiliar with.

Thomas Payne's Common Sense - http://odur.let.rug.nl/~usa/D/1776-1800/paine/CM/sensexx.htm

The Bill of Rights -
http://memory.loc.gov/const/bor.html

Thomas Jefferson - http://www.arches.uga.edu/~jpetrie/TJ.html

Or

Benjamin Franklin
http://quotes.telemanage.ca/quotes.nsf/QuotesByCatPerson?ReadForm&RestrictToCategory=Benjamin+Franklin

Though I'm sure George W. Bush would be more than willing to pervert them to defend his cause had he read them.

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants.

George Bush's actions show he is unfamiliar with those though.

[salinen]

5. Thanks for routing me to

a list of great Americans.

[coloradodem2005]

6. This makes me sick

Especially when I went to the list and heard a voice say "You're the traitor."

[Rationality]

7. Even Fred Durst?

That hypocritical holyroller is on there? What made him so cool all the sudden?

[ima_sinnic]

8. these people are totally INSANE--look at this:

There is a petition to put Bush on Rushmore. I would have signed with a fake nuisance name but they appear to be stupid enough to think Harry Dick is a real supporter's name. :D

[whistle]

9. I notice that the site has....

...George Bush's signature on it. I wonder, does that mean that the president or BushCo endorses the site? This is the kind of thing that really brings the country together, eh.:grouphug:

The traitors List is complete with pictures. The patriots list on the other hand, doesn't even give last names in many cases. Looks like a wacko group pushing this.:eyes: :crazy: :silly:

[ixion]

10. okay, so you can buy your spot on the 'traitors' list

Which is a list of some truly great people.

The probush people, as with most people who support the BFEE, must be mind-numbinly ignorant.

Of course, the most stunningly ironic thing is that these are NO DOUBT some of the same people who bashed Clinton all the while he was in office. Now, by their own definition, wouldn't that make them traitors, too?

Don't you just love the glaring double standard of neo-cons?

[goondogger]

11. Joan Cusack?!?!? All I can say is

:wtf:?!??!

Interesting there's nothing about bin Laden or al Qaeda being enemy #1 or any mention of the people who actually seek to do us harm.

From this site I'd assume that the Bushites see some singers, actors, poets, and Dems as the biggest threat to our nation--or is it the biggest threat to their reign?

[The Whiskey Priest]

13. Using the same rules it could by said that Bush is a Dictator.

Or we live in an Aristocracy, or, Bush is a Tyrant.

The right does not think before they do.

Some googled definitions: Take your pick.

Aristocracy: A form of government in which a minority rules under the law
http://www.google.com/search?q=define:aristocracy

Tyranny: a form of government in which the ruler is an absolute dictator (not restricted by a constitution or laws or opposition etc.)

Tyrant: a ruler who had seized power without legal right to it
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=define%3A+Tyrant

In Roman Law, an appointed individual given exceptional powers in times of crisis.

a person who has total power for making every decision in a country.

A ruler who is not restricted by a constitution, laws or any opposition

a ruler with absolute power

[spanone]

14. Isn't it lovely when a democracy calls opposition traitors?

These are people who have truly missed the point.

[Virginian]

15. Their definition of Traitor would fit anyone who posts here.

Traitor List ™

Treason: Violation of allegiance toward one's country or sovereign, especially the betrayal of one's country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies.


Traitor: If you do not support our President's decisions you are a traitor.

[Ready4Change]

18. 140 well know people "traitors"?

Don't these people realize that forming a list that long says 1 of two things? Either:

- Their definition of "traitor" is overly broad, or

- Something is seriously wrong when this many well known people start acting traitoriously.

[DBoon]

19. Interesting disclaimer

Parody. Not to be taken seriously. These "traitors" are not legal "traitors" of the United States.

To cover their behind legally? Wonder why they would need this?

[icymist]

20. I think they're being sued. Check on their home page.

[SoCalDem]

22. From their "Know your flag etiquette section.. They better tell Bush

http://www.probush.com/flag_etiquette.htm

The flag should never be used for any advertising purpose. It should not be embroidered, printed or otherwise impressed on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, napkins, boxes, or anything intended to be discarded after temporary use. Advertising signs should not be attached to the staff or halyard

The flag should never have placed on it, or attached to it, any mark, insignia, letter, word, number, figure, or drawing of any kind.

[NJmaverick]

24. Interesting to note

A great many of the "traitors" on that list are people who've made great contributions to Amercan culture - I see a prominent graphic designer who literally revolutionized the way we see everyday things, poets so influential they've entered the canon while still alive, musicians who've inspired millions of people, activists and academics who've struggled to change our perceptions and open our eyes and minds. The guy disparaging all these great people has accomplished -- the creation of a mediocre website? Bravo, dude. :boring:

[NoPasaran]

25. I nominated Dick Cheney for the Traitors List

I hope he enjoys his Traitor Hat

[icymist]

26. Bravo!

Wish I'd thought of that first!

:kick:

[VOX]

27. For ten grand, they'll let you buy the #1 traitor spot...

And, they throw in a Traitor Cap in the bargain --

Bush Hater?

[mopinko]

28. dang, i am not on it.

maybe if i e-mail them they will give me a link.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

29. Um, I've always been under the impression that this site is..

..a SATIRE!!!

[icymist]

31. Except when

a Liberal wants to be on the Traitor List (TM), they have to pay big $$$ and when a Conservative wants to be on the Honorary Patriot List (TM) all they have to do is send an email. I think there's a little more than satire going on here!

[mopinko]

33. why?

i did not see any sign that it is satire, except trying to cover their ass by saying it was parody.
even though my knee jerk reaction was to want to be on the list, i cannot picture any of these people paying to be on the list. i guess there is still room for merit.

also, how creepy- it picked up my amazon cookie where they were begging for funds to fight a defamation suit. eeeeoooooooooowwww.

[icymist]

35. Exactly! The 'Real Patriots' (C) pictured on this list have not paid

for this privilege! Some are probably not even aware that they're are pictured here! We need to ask who is this organization and where is this money they gain by using these pictures of Real Patriots (C) going to?

[Hippo_Tron]

43. On the traitor list there is a *this is a parody

This is satire, and fairly shitty satire I might add. Not to mention that nobody messes with Martin Sheen real or jokingly and gets away with it!

[struggle4progress]

36. I especially liked ...

"If you wish to become an Official ProBush.com Patriot please email your full name, age and state to [e-mail]
Email sent to ProBush.com is monitored by the U.S. Government"

The Happy President's Day T-Shirt is nice too. I'm wishing everybody a Happy President's Day on April 1!

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

32. Crap why am I not on it?

After all, I am third-generation Democrat, a home-grown Texan from way back and you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who disagrees more vehemently with the bushco policies and decisions.

But wait. That's not the definition of traitor, is it?

Our founding fathers must spin in their graves at shit like this. Dissention is very American. The stifling of such dissention or the attempt to stifle is quite remarkably un-American.

When I was reading some of it to my veteran husband, he said "hey I served my country honorably and I hate bush, if they don't like it they can go f____ themselves."

Can't really put it any better than that.

Satire or not.

[John_H]

34. I'd be proud to be on any list that has Steve Earle and Jim Jarmusch on it

[LWolf]

37. LOL

Is this site for real, or a satire? After browsing, it has to be satire, right? Right?

:silly:

[icymist]

38. I suppose

That this site is as much satire as Al Frankin's work is satire. Only, Al is much, much better at it!

[stevedeshazer]

39. Noodles??

Fucking Noodles??

[icymist]

40. Okay, Who the hell is Noodles?

I guess I've been out of the music scene too long!

[stevedeshazer]

42. Guitarist for the Offspring n/t

[Fight_n_back]

41. Have to agree with them on Sally Kirkland

She is incredibly dangerous, what with her increidble fame and power oin Hollywood.

[Stephanie]

44. I sent that to a friend of mine who's on that list

He was thrilled. He linked to it from his site.

[struggle4progress]

45. Well this is what we're confronting

Check out the protest photos

[Hippo_Tron]

46. I'm now fairly sure this is satire...

http://www.probush.com/our_hero.htm

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

47. I wonder if Mel Gibson is going to make it into the list too?
