TREASON - to obstruct their Commander-in-Chief during wartime. This IS what they're doing. They're obstructing the President, who also serves as Commander-in-Chief whether they like it or not, during a time of war, which we very definitely ARE in.

This should be brought to their attention. They're playing hardball. Obama has it within his Presidential powers to play HARDER ball. And that will be the only thing they respect. Grudgingly, all the way, of course.
