Not all traitors work in the media

Some work in the government, and some hold elected office. The U.S. Senate seems particularly infested these days, as the senators' most recent product – an immigration "reform" bill – one that would accomplish its "reform" by making America essentially a Mexican province by the year 2025, will attest.

That date, incidentally, is only 19 years from today. So that grandchild your daughter brought home today will turn 19 in a nation that none of us will recognize.

During the Cold War, it was easy to recognize traitors. They were, for the most part, spies or those in a position of government trust who went over to the other side. Their motivation was often painted as financial, but the small sums that changed hands indicate that other forces were at work. Sometimes it was blackmail in a shady area of their personal life; oftentimes it was ideological.

Today's traitors are different. Proud of their treason, they operate out in the open. They call their treason by many different names. Government "servants" (would that any of us should live to see that day again) claim their treason is principled opposition to government policies. The hate-America-first contingent in the mainlining media prefers to spin their treason as the public's right to know – as if the public had a right to know Eisenhower's D-Day invasion plans beforehand so those who didn't agree with the war could share them with the Nazis before American soldiers climbed into the landing craft and hit the beaches at Normandy.

At its heart, an act of treason against America is an act of raw, naked aggression directed personally against you, me and every citizen of this country. The traitor's act is designed to destroy the values and institutions that we rely upon to live our lives as Americans – because the traitor doesn't agree with them. Traitors choose not to do the hard, constitutional legwork of changing our democratic institutions. Instead, they choose to undermine them, weaken them and hope that an enemy – whether domestic or foreign, they really don't care – will bring down the America they loathe and erect something more to their liking. In this, they exhibit an infantile streak in both their thinking and character.

When elected to a position of power, they abuse that power in favor of their nebulous agenda of weakening America – culturally, economically, or militarily – and somehow in the process of their treason making the world more "fair" for other nations. This always results in praise from the world's petty dictators, who pour America's aid into their personal bank accounts, while using their forum at the United Nations to berate us for not doing more for the poor. The praise of such vile individuals seems particularly important to the privileged, guilt-laden white liberals in America's government.

Our national understanding of what treason is – and therefore the outrage that would normally accompany an outbreak of such magnitude – seems to have vanished in recent years. It may be that there are many more people who consider themselves "world citizens" and therefore above the national fray. Odd, though, such "world citizens" seldom choose to live their lives in Uganda, Dufar, Haiti or other such parts of the world. They prefer the developed West – the one that provides them with open financial markets, open elections, police and military protection, and access to the latest health-care innovations. This is also the West that they choose to betray.

There is no guarantee that the West, and America in particular, will survive this outbreak of treason. The great majority of America's self-loathing, guilt-besieged, white, leftist "elites" would gladly trade America's place in the world for a day's praise by traitors at the Times, the Post, or perhaps a trip to Ted Turner's buffalo ranch, where they could be wined, dined and buffaloed into believing how self-effacing and forward thinking they are for betraying millions of ordinary, hard-working Americans.

Their treason should be exposed, their legacy forever stained by the blood of those patriots on the battlefield they have chosen to betray, and they should personally experience the righteous anger of those they have sold for their 30 pieces of silver.
