Is the House Republicans guilty of high treason?

Is the GOP guilty of The Sedition Act of 1918?

What was the left constantly accused of? Advocating the overthrow of the U.S government. For 3 decades or more, McCarthyites scared American on how enemies, foreign and domestic were out to destroy our constitutional Republic.
So Bochner (Boner) and company in both houses are doing what the Soviets dreamt of doing during the cold war, infiltrate, sabotage, and subvert. Don’t dismiss this as right wing conspiracy paranoia. Just because they are Republicans does not mean they are exempt from Anti-Americanism. How can shutting down the Federal government a patriotic act? I just want someone to explain this me. OK?

Are they vs. is he = plural vs. singular. This is fundamental English.

Also: For 3 decades or more, McCarthyites scared Americans on how enemies, foreign and domestic, were out to destroy our constitutional Republic.

Also: How can shutting down the Federal government be a patriotic act? I just want someone to explain this to me.

I wanted to post earlier, but I thought someone else would have caught this unforgivable assault on grammar.

Or for fuck's sake, will you people give the Treason and Sedition threads a rest?

It's not treason for a political party to pursue a political goal with which you disagree. And it's not sedition, either.

You make us all sound stupid.

or a up tick or something!!!

You answered that perfectly. I really think the GOP has to cleanse itself of these fire ants. I hear it in my region (the red of the red) and it is sickening. The shutdown isn't the freedom call they thought it would be during all those secret meetings and peatardy happenings.

We need to be patient as the GOTPers have this blue hissy fit and come to the understanding they lost the last election. Also, we need to keep a cool head so we can save the planet from the stupid, but that goes without saying.
