Congressman William Delahunt is a Traitor
Look closely at the little picture I've placed to your left. US Representative William Delahunt committed an act of treason against the country of the United States of America on June 26, 2008. The American Heritage dictionary defines treason as the "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." Even if treason can't be proven, Delahunt has still committed a crime.
Democrat's al Qaeda comment sparks Republican ire
I've linked the header above to the article posted at CNN's website. If you don't know the whole story, I invite you to read it now. Down below, you'll find the video I've embedded from YouTube which displays Delahunt's treasonous behavior.
Although I'm a registered Republican, I have voted for Republican, Democrats and independent candidates in the past. I will have difficulty this year, if it's even possible, to vote for anyone as the American President because I'm living in the Philippines. I'm only mentioning this so you can understand that I'm not taking sides on this issue.
The Issue Isn't About Politics
Although some would say this all about politics, it isn't. It's about a crime that's been committed. I'm no legal expert and treason may not be provable in a court of law. At the very least, Delahunt should be charged with attempted murder.
David Addington is the chief of staff for Vice President Dick Cheney and a proponent of the harsh interrogation at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. If he wasn't a target of the al Qaeda terrorist organization before this, he is now.
It's no secret that al Qaeda members watch American news feeds. Every time one of our elected representatives opens his or her mouth and says something to aid them in whatever their motives are, they're undermining the US government. As far as I'm concerned, anyone who does that is a traitor to the country.
Please do something about it.
If I had the money in my possession to pay for the flight and to stay in the US for even a short time, I would be there as soon as humanly possible in order to file charges at the first US court I could get to. Since I don't, it's up to other American citizens.
Any American citizen can file criminal charges against any other American citizen and I urge you to do so if you possibly can. If Congressman Delahunt is allowed to get away with this, other elected officials will be even more daring with what they think they can get away with and probably will.
My Personal Thoughts About Congressman Delahunt
Delahunt is now a worthless piece of human trash. Whatever qualifications he had for serving as an elected representative for the Congress of the US flew out the window when he opened his big, fat mouth to point out an enemy of al Qaeda. Mr. Addington told him he couldn't tell him what he wanted to hear and he took it upon himself to make a remark that was totally uncalled for.
An apology isn't good enough. He can't take it back. It doesn't matter if he meant it or not. There are no "do overs" in real life. Delahunt should resign. Better yet, he should go behind the building and shoot himself for being both a moron and a traitor. If you think I'm being overly harsh and judgmental, you should have seen what I edited out.

I don't see what the problem is. Our politicians be they democrat or republican should have no anonymity even when it comes to Al-Qaeda. And let's be realistic no one needs a house subcommittee to point out what David Addington looks like. The internet does a bang up job on that all by itself.
Has Google committed an act of treason? After all they show Addington's ugly mug all over the place. What about the newscasts that carried clips of the exchange? Wouldn't they be complicit in the matter?
I'm sorry but I can't find fault with Delahunt for this. Perhaps other things, but this I don't see an issue with. We're not talking a secretive operative who has had their cover blown by a loud mouth government official. We're talking about a public figure who's position on any number of things is a matter of public record.

Another display issue. It has something to do with the embedded links so I need to do something to make it show up. Ok, once I removed one of the links, it appeared.
In response to your response, what Delahunt actually did was different than what we heard. He basically pointed a finger at Addington and said "here, al Qaeda, this is your enemy, come and kill him". The president and vice-president have secret service agents protecting them 24/7. Addington does not and Delahunt knows it.
This is becoming so commonplace here RT. Finger pointing is everywhere. I agree if Addinton is offed, that the fingers will then be pointed at Delahunt as responsible. Our politicians are a joke RT. They really are.

You're right. Our politicians ARE a joke and that's the biggest problem we have.
Hi RT, I think some people truly hate a certain person and want him to lose "his" war, without realizing that, like it or not, it is the country that will lose the war and pay the price. As I think I wrote earlier, sometimes the news really gets me worked up, and I sometimes thinks I should limit the amount of news I read. Fortunately, I don't have that problem with Untwisted Vortex.

Please, Steve, don't get me going. The next thing you know, I'll be writing about the republicrats.
Hi RT,
Honestly, I'm not sure I see such a problem with this. I took it as a little bit "tongue in cheek", although a fair argument could be made that Rep. Delahunt did cross a line.
That being said, on flip side, isn't it just a tad bit ridiculous when a senior member of the Administrative branch gives such a lame excuse for refusing to answer a question at a Congressional hearing?
I mean come on … "Al Qaeda might be watching CSPAN" … give me a break.
Just my opinion,
Todd
All these politicians are treasonous b*st*rds! They all take their marching orders from the lobbyists and the biggest lobby is APAC so they aren't loyal to this country. Money is what holds their loyalty.
Does anyone know what are Congressman Delahunt interests in Venezuela? He comes often to Caracas and is always lobbying in DC on behalf of the Chavez regime. Yesterday he came to Caracas,and talked to journalists about similar points of view between Chavez, President Obama and himself on behalf of Human Rights and world peace. The very same day that Chavez is clamping down on the last democratic spaces still existing in Venezuela. Chavez is known for very generous gifts to his "friends" around the world. Please investigate Delahunt!
