Treason is defined by Article III of the Constitution as in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. At midnight, 01 Oct 2013, our elected leaders did just this when they collectively allowed our government to shut down. This has the possibility to let seeds of disent to be sown by enemies of our nation both external and internal. This is a call for all Americans, not democrats or republicans, but Americans of all walks of life, race, creed etc to send a message of disgust to those who have the audacity to call themselves the leaders of our country. And I urge all to rise up and revolt on our next election cycle and vote all current "leaders" our of office.
